INDUSTRY

Just now when the world is crying
for food, when men, women and chill
dren across the sea pass out Of this
life for the lack Of nourishment,
Americans, to whom God has given
the right to live in a land of prosper
ity, must be brought to realize the
need of industry.
1t has become duty. especially in
the last few years. For the most
part America has lived up to that call.
but a prediction has gone out that a
slump may come this year because Of
the lack of farm labor. Industry is
helpful to right living. By keeping
the faculties employed it permits no
time for wrong doing and temptation.
Idleness causes carelessness, impurity
of thought and crime.
Work is the key to success, it is
the foundation upon which nations
rest and without which they could not
exist. 1t is the struggle toward an
ideal, the constant effort to get high
er and further, developing manhood
and character.
The heights by great men reached
and kept
We're not attained by sudden flight.
But they, while their companions
slept,
We're toiling upward in the night"

CEMENT AND CONCRETE

Cement is today perhaps the mos
important building material. Not only
is it important today, but it is becom
ing more and more important all the
time. 1t can be used for practically
any kind of building. and building il
by no means the only use to which II
may be put. When well made and
properly used it is one of the most
durable of building materials. 1t has
been defined as artificial stone and
may be made fully as hard and dura-
BILE as stone. People have been a
little slow to use concrete in build
ing because Of the fact that it is more
expensive than other materials. But
scarcity of these other materials has
made their prices and these of con-
crete come nearer being the same
now than they were few years ago
People are also awakening to the fact
that the first cost in building is by
no means the only one to be consid-
cred.
One of the methods of building with
concrete requires considerable work
in the way of making forms which
must be put up to hold the mortar in
place until it becomes hard. This is
overcome. however. in a second meth
cd, by which concrete blocks are
made of the cement and these blocks
used to build with. They can be made
hollow SO that less material is needed
to make them. In concrete buildings
only about one-fourth to one-seventh
OF the material used is cement. The
rest is creek gravel, sand or crushed
rock. For rough work common flint
rocks picked up in the field NAV be
used.
Concrete not only makes buildings
that are durable but it makes houses
that are cool in the summer and warm
in the winter. Another point in ia
vor OF the concrete house is that il
will not burn; hence the insurance
rate on it is low. The fact that it will
not burn is a strong one in favor
OF the cement house, for in the case
OF a house burning the insurance sell
dom covers the loss that the fire
causes.
Many of the uses that concrete is
put to are not thought of by the ordi-
nary person. 1t can even be used for
the purpose of doctoring decaying
trees. Where@shade trees have de-
cayed places in them. the holes may
be filled with concrete thus keeping
out water and bacteria which would
eventually cause the tree to rot of.
Seldom is a building of any sort con-
structed now without the use of some
concrete in it.

Fine Performance Of "Jeweis OF the

The Philadelphia Operatic Societ,
gave its fiftieth performance last eve

cidentally, one Of the best, II not the
very best, rendition that II has yet
given, especially when the fact Is taken
into consideration that the opera chosen
Is one Of the most difficult in the reper-
toire Of modern works.
The opera was Wolf Ferrari's 1.-The

berness and tragedy were well brought
out by the performers in both music
and acting. The stars were naturally
Emily Stokes Hagar. Paul Volkmann
and Reinhold Schmidt in the three chief
parts Of the opera. Mrs. Hagar .wns
Ia excellent voice and played the. diff
cult role with all her usual self-pos
session and vivacity. II is tribute
to her versatility as well as to her abil-
ity that she was able to do just az
effective work with the tragic and sar.
donic character Of Maliella as she did
with the strongly contrasted part OF
Bocaccio in the opera Of that name
last spring.

enact calling for display Of nearly
