A A Houghton in a bevel even with the ends of the supporting timbers so as'to make a when they are Joined to The necessity of setting up and taking down forms In making molds for aewers bridges and culverts of concrete work Is a great waste of time In addition to the great amount of lumber required With the simple form described and illustrated herewith which can be constructed by any one in a short time and at a slight expense the 'Tabor in handling forms when molding all classes of bridges culverts and sewers will be saved as In a few minutes’ time the form can be placed In position to mold a section and by simply removing the key blocks the form will neatly fold together so that it can be removed and used again without delay in construction The manner of construction for a culvert feet 9 inches wide and 3 feet 4'A inches high when completed is to use for each section 24 segments of a circle as four sets of six each are used as supports to each section The best way to make these is to cut 24 pieces of plank 2 Inches thick and 19 inches long take one of these pieces and make a pattern by marking on each end 1 tight Joint gether : After completing the the above manner Join six sections in them together with a hinge on each support as lllus trated in Fig 1 and Fig 2 requiring 20 hinges As illustrated in Fig 2 tht hinges are all placed on the bottonr side of supports except those in th center on top these must be on tht outside to enable- It to fold together By using a flat strap hinge for this there will be Very little mark left in For the cross the completed work supports cut four pieces of lumber 4 feet lOYs inches long Each one of the bottom pieces is cut 1 fool from each end and the balance of strip cut in the center making four pieces Join together with three hinges as Illustrated in Fig 1 and Fig 2 putting one hinge on top of the strip and two on the bottom at the Joints and then fasten to the bottom supports with hinges at bottom of the strip and

piece then draw a line from this mark to the end of the oval line at the top and when this piece is cut off the correct miter is obtained for the purpose If the length of the completed section is to be 12 feet use lumber 2 inches wide and 1 Inch thick of this Jength lay four of the segments of circle with oval sides up at equal distance apart and cover with the lumber nailing on top The oval segments should be so covered as to leave leave half an inch projecting on each side this is planed down on one edge i Fig 2 and thus folds the section to- gether The top cross pieces or supports are cut from the same lumber 3 feet 6 Inches long and are divided into four pieces in a proportionate manner as the bottom cross supports and are hinged together and fastened to sections in the identical manner as the bottom ones This allows both cross supports to fold down alike and thus draw fn the sections together so that it can be removed trom the completed work in a very short time and without damage to the concrete As illustrated in Fig 1 blocks are used to hold the cross supports in position while the section is in use These should be at least 4 by 4 inches and the proper length to

greatest war of all time in the cause for which it was fought In the beginning the south honestly and sincerely believing that it had a right to withdraw from the union proposed to exercise this right peacefully if it could forcibly if it must Its complaint was that the north would not in good faith keep the national lafvs made to protect the domestic institution of the southern states — slavery — and was continually encroaching on it with new laws and the south wished a separate government in which such laws would be supreme The north insisted that the union was indissoluble that once having entered it states could not withdraw As a question of law this could never be settled It Is pitiful to see how our fathers for years argued and demonstrated and quibbled over an interpretation while in the background loomed the real question dimly discerned never confessed and ignored wholly as much ai possible while as if to drown consciousness the talk about “inter pretation of the constitution" grew ever louder until the BOUth struck It ' ordained the dissolution of this union and fired on its flag Then rose the curtain on the red drama that cost a million lives before the curtain fell Confused In the beginning the theme gradually unfolded the background became clear and the prowere tagonists disclosed in deadly strife not over a petty text but over the question of
