Scientifically constructed and absolutely guaranteed

The stiles and cross-tails of Iaminex doors are built on cores of clear, vertical grain blocks. Any tendency of one core block to shrink, swell or warp is immediately neutralized by opposing forces in adjoiiring core blocki. All parts of a Laminex door, induding the plywood pane:ls, are fumly united by Laminex ce*ment, whictr is absolutely waterproof and acnrally stronger than wood. The success of I-aminex has tempted others to offer guaranteed veneered doors, out'wardly resemblinglaminex doors but lackingthemoisture-resistance that only Iaminex waterproof cement can give. For your own protection, insist on doors that bear the yellow replacement guarantee label and the. name "Le,urNrx."

Heavy Timbers Used To Move Concrete Fire Wall

They do big things on a big scale in California in public utility circles. When the Southern California Fdison Compnny decided to move its two 30,000-bbl. steel tanks, used for fuel oil, to'a new site, a series of temporary ponds were formed about them bv earth dikes and the tanks were turned temporarily intir ships which were floated to their new location.

The concrete fire wall which surrounded them was cut into sections 35 feet long and weighing approximately 7Q tons each. On each side of these sections crib work built of big timbers was erected and Douglas fir beams 2 f.eet square and over 30 feet long were placed across above them. The wall sections were then suspended to the beams, each beam carrying a load of 7O,000 lbs. and the crib work was moved by rollers until the wall reached its new location.

The outstanding value of big timbers for such construction is exemplified by this unusual job of moving. After the work was over the lumber used was still in good condition and available for other similar operations.
