XED CONCRETE
FOR DAMP PROBING

of not less than 1902 c. by the
closed-cup method.
ca When 24O &C. of the oil is
heated in an Engler viscosimeter
to 500 c., and maintained at that
temperature for at least three min
utes, the first 100 &C. which flows
out shall show specific viscosity
of not less than Is nor more than
80.
60 When l part of the oil is
shaken up with 2 parts of hun
dredth normal caustic soda, there
shall be no emulsifcation, and
upon allowing the mixture to re-
main quiet the two components
shall rapidly separate in distinct
layers.
For practical use the addition of
oil will be found particularly use
full in the construction of base
ment floors and walls. Many of
these now in existence are contin-
ual1y damp and such a condition
may be remedied by the app1ica-
ton of an oi1-mixed mortar coat
to the old surface. A mortar COM
posed of one part of cement and
two parts sand and containing
per cent of oil should be suffi-
GENTLY non-absorbent for this
purpose.
Watering troughs and cisterns
made of oil-mixed concrete
should also prove of considerable
practical value in the conservation
of water. In the construction of
barns, where oil-mixed concrete is
used, the interior will be notice
ably drier than when ordinary
concrete is used. Owing to their
durability, cleanliness and resist
ance to fire. concrete barns are be-
coming more and more popular,
but they suffer from the disad-
vantage that during a long beat
ing rain the side walls are inclined
to absorb much moisture, which
ultimately penetrates into the in
terror. The addition of oil to the
extent of 5 per cent of the weight
of cement in the concrete used in
the side walls obviates this objec-
ton. Barn floors can also be con-
structed in the same way with adj
vantage. A dampproof floor is
warmer because of the lack of
evaporation from its surface, and
it IS also more sanitary than an
ordinary concrete floor because of
its non-absorbent character.
There are, of course, any num-
Der of other types of buildings
and structures of all sorts in
which oil-mixed concrete may be
used advantageously or, if this is
not necessary, a coat of oil-mixed
mortar may be applied effectively.
Attention is called, however, to
the fact that extreme care in pro-

Nine. Bernhnrdt was in CHEEKY mood

MESSENGERS WIN "WAR
GAME" WITH INDIANS
Boy Scouts Distinguish Them
selves in Hard-Fought "Bat-
tie" Near Haverford.

The messengers won in the war game
with the Indians which was fought out
today by the Philadelphia Boy Scouts. on
the fields outside of Haddonfeld, N. j.
Two hundred Indians were captured and
1s messages were delivered, and, incl
dentally, there were many hand-to-hand
battles.
Michael Koplin, of Troop No. 225, cap
tured IA Indians alone and finally when
he was overcome was captured himself.
There were 16O messengers and 1900
Indians sent out to capture them.
The first message was delivered by
Robert Doyle, of Troop 96, who got
through the lines at i2:15
Scout William Lund of No. 2T7, captured
the first Indian.
The messengers endeavored to deliver
sealed messages requesting aid in pre-
venting the advance of the maraudinS
redskins on Philadelphia.
This battle" is the big Philadelphia
| Boy Scout game in honor of Washington's
Birthday. Fifteen hundred boys were
scattered over a triangular shaped strip
of ground covering about so square miles
| this side of Haddonfield.
The messengers. using every art of
scoutcraft advanced toward Haddon-
field. Capture does not mean death, but
| parture from the game. To capture a
messenger. the Indians must scalp" him
| by removing the white arm band which
| the messenger wears. The messenger,
| 81 he by good fortune comes upon a stray
Indian, has the privilege of 'scalping"
the enemy by taking away the later's red
| and green arm band.
! The messengers, two picked scouts from
each troop. left quietly early this morning
from the Market street ferry in charge of
| Walter S. Cowing, scout executive: Scout
! master Samuel G. Friedman, chairman OF
| the Scoutmasters Committee; Deputy
| Scout Commissioner Patton.
| George S. Dayton. scoutmaster of
Troop 80; Orlando Grease. Jr., scoutmas-
| ter OF Troop 90 and Dr. Il. 3. Hitchcock,
! scoutmaster of Troop 96. the Philadelphia
| delegation, were welcomed by l.. r.
Dobbs. fleld scout commissioner of Cam
| den County; ]. 70. Murdoch, scout com
missioner OF Burlington County, and IL.

| ter County.
They were taken TO the field OF opera
ton and shown where they were de-
| livered.
Tho Indians. a mighty horde of them,
| left at $3.50. and were taken to field head
quarters near Haddonheld, where they
were later sent out to capture the ad-
| Vancing messengers. The Indians are in
ignorance OF where the messages are TO be
delivered.
Points in the game, determined by the
number of ''scalps" taken and messages
delivered, viii be counted up this after
noon, after which the reunited scouts and
the New Jersey scout officials will have
an outdoor exhibition of scouting at field
headquarters.
| AT the conclusion OF the game the
Scouts had dinner at the Haddon Gun
Club and were addressed by Louis Short
