PAINT PROTECTION
AND ITS ECONOMY.

The preservation Of structural ma
terials, which may be obtained through
the application Of paint, constitutes
most vital means Of furthering the con-
servation Of our natural resources. II
is, moreover, the most economical
method Of sustaining the appearance
and general upkeep Of any commu-
nifty.
A structure coated with sheets Of In
dia rubber would not be as we'll protect
ed from decay as a structure coated
with good oil paint. This is due to
the fact that sheet of rubber is not
SO durable or as waterproof as a thin
dried film Of paint The latter mate
rial when applied dries to continuous
elastic film containing finely divided
particles Of metallic. wear resisting
pigments. A square foot of such a
film upon a wooden surface costs less
than penny, yet It will beautify and
protect dollars worth of surface for
many years. This is a low rate Of in
surance.
Dwellings, barns, outbuildlngs, sheds
posts, fences, stock enclosures, wagons.
implements, windmills and other struc-
tures, whether Of wood, iron or cement,
should be preserved, through the use
Of paint, from rapid decay. High grade
paint may be used successfully for all
such purposes. COlored paints will be
found the most seviceable, the colOring
matter in the paint adding from two
to three years to the life of the coating.

North Portland-A large force OF
men and teams have commenced
work here in preparing fifteen acre
site for Pacific international Live
stock Exposition building. The build
ing will be S54 by 926 feet and will
be the largest building OF its kind
in tHe world! containing approx
mately two acres more OF floor space
than the big livestock exposition
building at Chicago, or about seven
and one-half acres in all. The build
ing, preparation of the site and the
necessary roadways and rail connec-
tions will involve an expenditure Of
over 100000.

Beauty Of Reims Now Departed


nothing so much as a giant egg
thrown against the wall, spattering
over It.
On the front, this same tower has
suffered more than its brothers.
Whole parts are shot away which on
the other are either unharmed or
merely broken Merely broken!
There Is no such thing when one
speaks Of the ruin which has been
wrought on Reims Cathedral but
my unthinking use of the words
shows that there are relative values
even in destruction.
II Is the mutilations of the
statues on the facade which were the
Cathedral's peculiar wonder and
glory that 1t has suffered most. !
examined them carefully and / am
sure there is not one but has suf-
fered some injury. One or two are
wholly gone, the bare suggestion of
the form alone remaining; others
lack heads, or arms, or perhaps only
two hands are gone. On some the
lower limbs are shot away, and
again on others the upper portion
OF the body is gone. On one of the
women the stone from which the
face had heen carved had cleaved
peculiarly as II knife had sheared
It off smoothly; one of the hands was
gone at the wrist; the rest of the
statue was uninjured.
Every quarter of an hour a guide
takes parties thru the Cathedral. In
side, except for the interior surface
Of the facade which seems totally to
have escaped injury and therefore
emphasizes the pitiful condition of
the remainder the destruction ap-
pears even worse than outside. The
irreparabte ruin of the windows is
now fully evident; the organ pipes
are pierced and torn; the roof is a
gaping ruin from which bits Of
rock and plaster still fall so that the
guide has to caution us not to walk
under certain places; the chancel is
piled waist and even neck high
with debris; and in the midst of it
lies Gods altar, smashed and desc
late.
Between twenty and thirty navy
men had gathered at the Cathedral
and French canton driver offered
to take us out to the former German

The two opposing front line trenches

The most interesting things in the
trenches were the listening posts and
the various devices for conoealment
and protection. In the first the diff
ferent occupants had written their
names and various sentiments; the
second were of sheet iron, railroad
iron, anything which would cover a
depression In which a man might
lie. Often the trenches had sign
boards bearing the names of various
streets or avenues in Germany and
the same sense of humor was dis
played in the incongruous coupling
of names of famous places to dug
outs and the like.
Souvenir hunters have rifled the I
first trenches pretty thoroly, but
beyond there are plenty Of relics II

any OF the others Our persistence
was rewarded by our finding a
trench which appeared to be pretty
much as the Germans had left IL; and
from appearances they had left 1t in
a hurry. There were lot OF car
trldges, several shells, several gre
nades, all in perfectly good working
