Great wall or Cninc

An examination of the bricks and
mortar in the Great. Wall of China
was made at Shan-hai-kwan by a
chemist attached to the Bureau of Sci
ence at Manila. He reports that the
bricks are so weak that pieces may
be broken Off with the fingers.
They are much larger than ordinary
building bricks, gray in color and
resemble pumice somewhat in struc-
ture. The mortar. which is pure white
under the exposed surface. is much
stronger than the bricks. The tradi-
tion that the bricks were dried in the
sun only has been confirmed by labora.
tory tests. If they had been dried IN
kiln the appearance of the wall
would have been considerably differ
erent and It's strength and Durability
would have been much greater.
