Portland cement, to meet
the exacting specifications
ofleading engineering soci-
cites and the United States
Government, must be
ground so fine that at least
78per cent will pass a sieve
having 200 wires per linear
inch. A silk handkerchief
has but ITO threadsperinch
an excellent quality Of
silk dress goods 1877 threads.
The watch in your pocket hardly
calls for more complicated and
carefully adjusted process Of manu-
facture than the making Of cement
Grinding is only one Of the many
operations required to make it.
Yet in grinding alone, see what is
required:
The rocks from the quarry, often
as big as a piano and heavier, go
first into gigantic coffee mill"
1t bites at these huge chunks
chips them, and finally brushes
them-to pieces six inches or 80
in diameter.
Two finer mills follow, one after
the other, reducing the stones to
the size Of coarse sand After this,
they must be ground in great re-
volving cylinder half filled with
steel balls, until every cubic foot
Of the rock has been reduced to Il
billion pieces-until IS per cent
of them will shake through sieve
thatwillactually holdwarer, asieve
with 10000 holes to the square
inch.
And all Of this is less than half the
necessary grinding. The coal must
be ground. For the object of all
this fine grinding of the raw ma
terials is only that it may be fused
into crystalline clinkers. And to
fuse it requires pulverized coal
or its equivalent. Most plants use
pulverized coal.
The coal must be ground as fine
as the raw stone. Eighty-hve per
cent Of it or thereabouts must go
through the sieve that holds
water. And that often means TWO
grinding operations.
There is still the clinker TO be
ground. 1t is glass hard to begin
with. 1t must be ground first TO the
fneness of sand, and then ground
and reground in another cylinder
Of steel balls-until at least 70 per
cent Of it will go through the
sieve woven finer than silk.
Huge powders to an impalpable
dust. Common coal to an impal
pable dust, and finally, after the
burning, glass-hard clinker to ar
impalpable dust. That is the max
ing Of cement. And eight heav,
grinding operations are reQuiree
in the process.
Grinding is only one Of the Jesse,
heat and power consuming oper
atoms in cement manufacture.

MANNED that in order TO get the zoning
idea moro firmly fixed and generally

is the plan to have such speakers here
every few weeks, the first to be heard
probably in November.
1t was arraigned to have the women
cooperate in the work and Mr.. Abra-

ability, long life, minimum maintenance
but it surpasses what up to now we
have considered the ultimate. In fact, it is
nearly inconceivable that such perfected
car as the Marmon could bring so many
new rehnements in appearance.
The new Marmon, as you'll agree, is
worth premium, yet there is no increase
in price. The recent reductions are still
in effect. So this amounts really to an
additional reduction.
Withhold all buying until you've seen this
car. And make a reservation subject to
later and final decision. We advise this
because our allotment will be limited and
we must make deliveries in the order
established by reservation.

BROAD RIPPLE To

The fight against annexation of

A part Of the statement issued by
Judge Chamberlain follows:
1T is the general practice to re-
instate causes. dismissed through ex-
cusable. neglect. on petition, when the
original status Is revived and such
action does not involve new rights.
Immediately upon the dismissal of
the remonstrance certain municipal
machinery was set in motion, and new
liabilities were instantly created. The
ordinance of annexation became i'm
mediately effective, exactly a g though
no remonstrance had been filed.
Can, then, a reinstatement OF the
remonstrance be made If it's practical

DO YOU WHIP YOUR CHILD? SHOULD
SUCH PUNISHMENT BE NECESSARY?

TWO: Because it makes children
worse. not better.
THREE: Because it Injuries child
morally by developing deceit. Fear Of
whippinss will destroy frankness and
lead children to lie.
FOUR; Because beating involves
danger of injuring a child's health
FIVE: Because whipping is q sign
Of perversiOn in the individual who
infiicts it.
SIX: Because it is contrary to all
the true instincts of parenthood. Even
animals do not punish their young by
physical brutality.
How 1t All Started
The issue has developed from the
case Of an 11-year-old child found
strapped to a wash-tub by padlocked
straps. The child, according to testi-
mony, had been beaten by it's par
ents with the buckle ends of belts.
The child was rescued by agents
Of a children's society who hailed the
parents into court. The parents were
discharged by Justice Salmon in a
decision in which the inherent right
of parents to punish their children"
was announced.
