WOODEN CONCRETE
FORMS ELIMINATED
Builders in New Method Use
Steel Tubes Reinforced With
Pipe and Wire.

Elimination Of wood forms for REIN
forced concrete molds in the constru ction
Of buildings of any size has been devised.
The new method requires the usual con-
crete piers, q cast iron base and upright
steel columns filled with concrete, from
which branch the steel beams. The skele-
ton Is reinforced with pipe and wire when
necessary. On this skeleton is strung
steel wire, and on this is laid the metal
lath, over which is poured concrete.
The result is monolithic building,
weighing, it is asserted, only one-third
as much as any other fireproof structure.
with equal pressure throughout, with a
saving Of from four to eight inches in
partitions and walls. and dead air spaces
as protection against heat and cold.
"A house after it is once erected is
engineer 1.-THE wear and tear of all the
materials entering into it-cement and
steel in different forms-is the minimum.
These constitute almost the entire bulk
Of the materials entering into the con-
struction.
Skeleton Of Steel Tubes.
1.-THE structure of the house is based
on a skeleton form, composed of steel
CO
that all weight-bearing members are
of materials of established carrying
values The bearing members carrying
the entire load Of the walls and floors
and ceilings, the house is elastic and win
expand and contract as a unit. 1t
therefore follows that If. owing to ex-
tremes of heat and cold. the house does
expand and afterward contract, or vice
versa, no cracks will be caused. Every
part of the house is reinforced by the
system of wiring, leaving no large sur
faces not bound together by steel. This
construction thoroughly envelopes the
entire house by sheets OF confined dead
air. Therefore 1t Is impossible to trans
NIT through the walls dampness. heat
or cold.
Changes Made Possible.
Each floor is Independent Of the
other floors. Changes can be made in
arrangement at any time. If desired.
limited only by the position of the col
umns Fire insurance rates will be cut
to the minimum on the contents or
house of this construction.
1.-The entire frame is wholly fabri-
Gated in the shop by the use of machin-
cry and modern appliances. reducing the
cost of construction Of the building to a
minimum. All materials are brought to
the site, ready for erection, so that any
ordinary set of mechanics can quickly
and economically erect the framework.
AFTER this IS IN place the builder has
something positive and easy to work
from. Laying out of partitions, doors.
windows, and so forth, can be done cor
rectly and checked without the possibility
of any errors. All work needs to be done
only once and does not require the careful
supervision in structures where the sue
cessive steps in the construction are
interdependent."

Firm Moves to New Offices.

With construction work practically
completed on its modern new building at

Lieberman G. Hawn this week removed

1903 F. street ever since its establishment
thirty years ago.

who have visited the city declare that
Its architecture Is superior to that Of any
building in Washington, with the posi-
BILE exception Of the Capitol building
Perhaps the most remarkable feature
Of the building Is the thirty-nine giant
columns surrounding and supporting 1t.
1t Is declared these are the largest col
umns made from single pieces of stone
in existence.
The wooden strips protecting the col
umns. which have prevented the best
view being had Of them, will not be re-
moved until the stone carvers have fin
ished work.

IMPR BEGUN AT
WEST ENTRANCE TO ZOO
Government Soon to Acquire Park Frontage
of One Thousand Eight Hundred Feet
on Connecticut Avenue.

With public interest largely centered In
the DEVELOPMENT of the new 10th street
entrance to Geological Park. develop
ments that are almost il not quite as I'M
portant on the Connecticut avenue side
are about to be begun.
In the last sundry civil bill an appro-
priation of $1O7.2O was made for the
purchase Of the strip Of ground lying
between the present western boundaries
of the park and Connecticut avenue and
extending from Cathedral avenue on the
south to Klingle road on the north.
This bill, 1t will be remembered. was
vetoed by President Taft because Of the
clause exempting labor and farming or
ganixations from prosecution. but It has
been finally signed by President wilson.
and It carries with 1t the Geological Park
appropriation.
Condemnation Comes Next.
Only the condemnation proceedings now
remain to be executed to make this strip
OF ground a part Of the park.
The property Is at present owned by
Mrs. Won Hemert. who resides abroad.
and who Is one Of the heirs Of the Walter
w. Evans estate. Thomas w. Fisher e
Co, Mrs. Won Hemert's Washington
agents, in the interim between the sign
ing of the sundry civil bill and the con-
demnation proceedings, have been making
improvements that would have been
necessary whether the government had
purchased the strip or not. The embank-
ment along the Connecticut avenue side
has long been a source OF discomfort
to pedestrians, especially after rainy
spell. because the dirt continued to wash
have just completed cutting this en-
bankment back until its angle with the
ground Is now about $50 degrees. instead
Of practically at right angles as here

While Geological Park lies just between
avenues OF the capital. the Avenue OF the
Presidents on the east and Connecticut
avenue on the west. 1t has never actually
fronted on any street. but has occupied
such a position that 1t could scarcely be
seen from either avenue.
Threatened by Rapid Development.
With the rapid development of suburban
Connecticut avenue It was realized by
Congress that unless the purchase of the
narrow strip between the park and Con-
necticut avenue were made very soon the
ground would doubtless be improved by
the building Of residences, or possibly
apartments-hehce the SLOT 200 appropria-

on Connecticut avenue. There are almost
eleven acres In the entire property, OF
which the greater part lies north of the
Zoo entrance. About seven acres lie In
the strip between the entrance and
Klingle road. and a trihe more than three
and a half acres between the Zoo en-
trance and Cathedral avenue.
In purchasing this property. the au-
thorities have seized on the last oppor-
tunity to give the park a frontage on
prominent thoroughfare before the inter-
vening properties are built up with resi-
dences. No sooner was 1t announced that
an entrance would be put through from
the Avenue of the Presidents into the
park than Lewis E. Breuninger purchased

Have Set No Time Limit.

Contrary to the case in most large
buildings, the exterior construction of
this temple is by far the greatest part
OF the work. and it is expected that the
building can be completed easily by the
fall Of 1914. although no definite time
limit has been set. The Scottish Riters
are building the temple for eternity and
have not rushed the contractors In any
way lest some slight flaw might creep
into their work.
II is estimated that the cost of the
building itself is to be about 81, 100000.

SCOTTISH RITE TEMPLE
NEARING COMPLETION
Outer Walls of Great Fraternal
Structure Almost Wholly
in Place.

After more than two years of continu-
Gus work the exterior construction OF the
new Scottish Rite Temple at street and
the Avenue of the Presidents Is nearing
completion. Placing a few more big
stones around the cornice and putting
on the roof is all that remains to COM
pleting the gigantic marble building so
far as it's outer walls are concerned.
Ground was broken for the building
June 20 1911. making little more than
twenty-six months taken for the first
lap in the undertaking. Yet even with
this length OF time the contractors will
be unable to proceed with the interior
for two more months. or until the Scot
fish Rite convention in this city the latter
part of October. when the plans for the
interior decorations and finish will be
submitted to the body by John Russell
Pope of New York. the architect OF the
temple.
The two months will not be wasted.
however, for no sooner will the builders
be out of the way than corps Of stone
workers will begin carving the Masonic
emblems in the stone in accordance with
plans already approved.

DISTINCTIONS to Streams.

In localities where the disaster was
most severe the calamity was undoubted-

noticeable OF these were the types Of
