cement mortar, etc., operates in a different way from other powder
and paste compounds offered for this purpose.
Toxement lubricates the mass by acting upon the cement and
causes the aggregate to run together into perfect density, and this
is accomplished with 25 per cent less water than when no Toxe-
ment is used.
No foreign material is relied upon to fill the voids, the aim being
to make dense concrete, because dense concrete is waterproof and
the results obtained will be permanent.
W. L. Macatee & Sons of Houston have made a specialty of
waterproof engineering for a number of years and will be only too
glad to serve to the fullest extent at any time.
The largest room in many a house is the room for improvement.
Cornell-Wood-Board, the logical wall and ceiling material,
manufactured from log to finished board under one roof and one
management, is made from pure, selected woods. Each individual
fibre is thoroughly soaked in a moisture proofing compound; and the
finished product is then surface sized— both back and front—to make
the board practically immune to atmospheric conditions.
Cornell-Wood-Board, for walls, ceilings and partitions, is
used with equal satisfaction for repair
work and new construction. It is installed
in homes, theatres, stores, office build-
ings, garages, farm houses, etc., and is
even serving its purposes in barracks,
etc., the U. S. Government having speci-
fied and applied millions of square feet
of CORNELL-WOOD-BOARD in canton-
ments.
“Architectural Terra Cotta”
The extent of the application of Architectural Terra Cotta in
Modern Architecture has been wonderfully illustrated on most of the
important work issued from our leading Texas architects’ offices dur-
ing the current year.
Architectural Terra Cotta is now made in all colors and special
surfaces and it is possible for the manufacturers to match approxi-
mately nearly all the various kinds of stone used in building.
Among the buildings in Texas on which have recently been suc-
cessfully treated with the products of the Atlantic and Atlantic Terra
Cotta Companies are: American Exchange Bank, Dallas, Texas; Lang
& Witchell, Architects, Temple, Texas; Emanu-El, Dallas, Texas; Hub-
bell & Greene, Architects; Masonic Temple and Kemp Library, Wichita
Falls, Texas; Madorie & Field, Architects; Science Hall, Sam Hous-
ton Normal, Huntsville, Texas, Endress & Watkins, Architects; Her-
man Building, Houston, Texas, F. S. Glover & Son, Architects.
Arthur P. Clark, Dallas, representative of Atlanta and Atlantic
Terra Cotta Companies.
Some of our members remember the “Dark Til Daylight Club”
and recollect that Ed Goodwin had something to do with its popu-
larity. Ed is now with James B. Clow and Sons and is located at St.
Louis. He will be down in this territory occasionally to renew old
acquaintances,however.
