Concrete an Old Story.

Rome was not built in day, nor
built as fast as Tammanytown, nor
built in structural steel, but it turns
out that most Of Rome's mighty
structures, temples, circuses, baths,
aqueducts, were built in concrete, not
reinforced with iron and steel, as we
build now, but good quality Of sand,
stone and cement nevertheless. On
this powerful central core of cement
was fitted an ornamental facing of
finest marble.
