This characteristic feature of "Expamet" ensures an even distribution of stress throughout the con- crete work; as all the strands or mem- bers are connected rigidly, they cannot be displaced by the laying and tamp- ing of the concrete. Moreover, the concrete within the meshes is brought into compression under loading conditions; thus the value of the reinforcement is increased and there is found a rational ex- planation of the great strength of " Expamet "-Concrete construction.

"In such times as this, a work at such a cost is as marvellous as the book is admirable. Parents of lads entering their teens-the doubting stage-should make a point of placing a copy in their hands."-Daily Mail, 26th January, 1920. " Really excellent little work."-Daily News, 26th Sept., 1902. " We welcome a new edition.... The appeal of the book is evidently one to common sense, and the success it has met is fully deserved. There is a healthy lay atmosphere about Col. Turton's arguments which renders them we fancy peculiarly effective."-Pall Mall Gazette, IIth March, 1907. "It is difficult to know whether to admire most the logical precision with which he marshals his facts and enforces his conclusions, or the charming candour, and freshness of style, which makes his book so readable."-Liverpool Daily Post, I4 th March, 1907. " This is a new edition, thoroughly revised, of Lt.-Col. Turton's famous book.... We are specially struck with the detached manner in which he examines the case, he holds the scales evenly and is not rhetorical. Any one who has any power of reasoning at all can follow him clearly from start to finish."-Bristol Til,z s and Mirror, S8th Feb., I907. " It is a book for the hour, and needs to be circulated b X thousands ... straightforward, manly, and convincing."-School master, 27 th March, I909. " This well-reasoned work appeals to common sense, it is candid and convincing."-Labour News, I6th Jan., 1925. Church of England. "Nothing need be added to our previous commendations of a work which has proved singularly serviceable, except to remark with approbation that its price has been lowered."-Church Times, 12th Dec., 1919. " If you want a simple book of Christian Apologetics, get Turton's ' The Truth of Christianity.' "-Church Times, 7 th April, 1933. " We have repeatedly expressed our sense of the merit of Col. Turton's book."-Gutardian, 9th Dec., 1908. .. " It deserves to be pointed out in more than a word, that every new edition is really such in a special degree. Col. Turton seems to devote the greater part of his leisure to the perfecting of his work, and never to be satisfied. Thus a thought is developed here, an argument strengthened there, and fresh illustrations are added as one edition succeeds another."-English Churchman, I2th Dec., 1912. " The present edition has again been carefully revised throughout, and full use has been made of the most recent developments of scientific knowledge. The valuable character of Lt.-Col. Turton's work is now so well known that it requires little recommendation." -Record, 9th Oct., I93I. "There is no padding and no unnecessary rhetoric. All the available space is filled with good solid reasoning, put in simple language which an intelligent artisan can follow as easily as an educated person."-Chtzrch Family Newspaper, 3rd Oct., 1902. "Few works of Christian apologetic have proved so useful.... All the argument is lucid, and no questionable assumptions are introduced."-Commnonwealth, May, 1926. " This is a text-book on Christian Evidence we would readily place in the hands of the lay-worker as an essential part of his equipment."-Lay Reader, Dec., 1912. " We have often privately recommended this work to seekers after truth who have written to us in perplexity."-Church Monthly, Jan., 1932. " It has done work of an inestimable value in defence of the Christian Faith in the face of every kind of criticism and antagon- ism."-Church Union Gazette, Nov., I931. " It is one of the best books of its class, readable, candid, convincing and thorough. It would be cheering news to hear that it had been widely read."-Clhurch Intelligencer, Oct., 1905. "This is the kind of book which strengthens believers and makes converts. It is one which should be placed within the reach of every lad at that period of his life when he begins to think for himself."-The (Church Lads) Brigade, Oct., 1905. "We have never met with any book which can be more confidently recommended."-Church Army Review, Dec., 1925. " It offers an admirable, thorough and terse examination of the more important arguments for and against believing in our Holy Religion. It should be in the hands of every teacher and preacher." -Irish Churchmanz,22nd Aug., I93I. "This book is an old friend of mine.... I have constantly found it most serviceable. ... I know of no better book of its kind; it is reasonable, candid, and convincing, and admirably lacking in controversial bitterness."-Fiery Cross, Dec., 1931. " There is no book of this class known to The Canadiant Teacher so complete and conclusive. Every teacher should have a copy." -Canadian Teacher, Toronto, Dec., I920. " Its excellent index' makes it extraordinarily easy to lay one's finger upon any specific point; we tested it, for instance, on this point, the contrast between the Incarnation and Hindu incarnations. In a moment we have been able to find the gist of the whole matter accurately stated in a few words."-Calcutta Diocesan Record, Jan., I913. Roman Catholic. "The gallant Colonel is a non-Catholic, but the subject matter of his book is so admirable that hardly a Catholic periodical in the country has failed to commend it, and that with high and unqualified praise."-The Tablet, Oct., 1925. " We most heartily wish that a copy of it could, be found in the library of every Catholic family, school, and institution."-Catholic Times, Jan., I909. (Sixth notice.) Presbyterian. "One does not know what to admire most in the book-the accurate knowledge gathered from so many fields, the clear reasoning, the sound judgment, or the fine spirit which animates the whole."-Christian Leader, I5th June, 1905. Nonconformist. "He is eminently fair to opponents, clear in statement, and convincing in argument for his own case, and his standpoint is unmistakably evangelical. His style suits his work, being calm, lucid and simple."-Metlhodist Times, 22nd Aug., 1901. " On the whole it is the best popular summary that we have met. It excells in definiteness of purpose, in clearness of statement, in moderation and in conciseness."-Baptist Times, 24th Oct., I902. "To the evangelical reader the book will be a delight; more modernist readers will turn to the book, we believe, time after time, in treating almost any religious subject, to find clear and reasoned statements of views, which, although not theirs, must be taken into account."-Liverpool Congregational Moznthly, Dec., 1925.

  • Caithness County Council
    Caithness County Council RECORDS’ IDENTITY STATEMENT Reference number: CC Alternative reference number: Title: Caithness County Council Dates of creation: 1720-1975 Level of description: Fonds Extent: 10 bays of shelving Format: Mainly paper RECORDS’ CONTEXT Name of creators: Caithness County Council Administrative history: 1889-1930 County Councils were established under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1889. They assumed the powers of the Commissioners of Supply, and of Parochial Boards, excluding those in Burghs, under the Public Health Acts. The County Councils also assumed the powers of the County Road Trusts, and as a consequence were obliged to appoint County Road Boards. Powers of the former Police Committees of the Commissioners were transferred to Standing Joint Committees, composed of County Councillors, Commissioners and the Sheriff of the county. They acted as the police committee of the counties - the executive bodies for the administration of police. The Act thus entrusted to the new County Councils most existing local government functions outwith the burghs except the poor law, education, mental health and licensing. Each county was divided into districts administered by a District Committee of County Councillors. Funded directly by the County Councils, the District Committees were responsible for roads, housing, water supply and public health. Nucleus: The Nuclear and Caithness Archive 1 Provision was also made for the creation of Special Districts to be responsible for the provision of services including water supply, drainage, lighting and scavenging. 1930-1975 The Local Government Act (Scotland) 1929 abolished the District Committees and Parish Councils and transferred their powers and duties to the County Councils and District Councils (see CC/6).

  • British 8Th Infantry Division on the Western Front, 1914-1918
    Centre for First World War Studies British 8th Infantry Division on the Western Front, 1914-18 by Alun Miles THOMAS Thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham For the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts & Law January 2010 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT Recent years have seen an increasingly sophisticated debate take place with regard to the armies on the Western Front during the Great War. Some argue that the British and Imperial armies underwent a ‘learning curve’ coupled with an increasingly lavish supply of munitions, which meant that during the last three months of fighting the BEF was able to defeat the German Army as its ability to conduct operations was faster than the enemy’s ability to react. This thesis argues that 8th Division, a war-raised formation made up of units recalled from overseas, became a much more effective and sophisticated organisation by the war’s end. It further argues that the formation did not use one solution to problems but adopted a sophisticated approach dependent on the tactical situation.

  • Recollect the Stories of World War II. Learn About Mount Faber and Sentosa's Military Encampment, Underground
    \ `` A Media Release by My Community Embargoed until 7am on 9 May 2019 RECOLLECT THE STORIES OF WORLD WAR II THROUGH THE MILITARY ENCAMPMENT, UNDERGROUND COMPLEXES AND SECRET RESERVOIRS AT MOUNT FABER AND SENTOSA Singapore, 3 May 2019 – Mount Faber and Sentosa are known for their expansive tourist offerings including the cable car, beaches and integrated resorts (IRs), but do you know that the area was home to several key military encampments and underground complexes during World War II? At Mount Faber, a fort comprising a signal station, gun batteries and plotting room was constructed to coordinate Singapore’s various artillery batteries such as Buona Vista, Pasir Panjang, Labrador, Siloso, Serapong, Connaught and Silingsing in the event of an invasion. In Sentosa, the defunct Fort Serapong was equipped with 7-inch guns, 64 pounders and a command centre for close combat battles and guarding the island against amphibious attacks. Both the underground chambers and military complexes at Mount Faber and Fort Serapong would be officially opened to the public for the first time in the upcoming heritage tour, My Mount Faber & Sentosa Heritage Tour. 2 My Mount Faber & Sentosa Heritage Tour explores the secret reservoirs, underground chambers and military complexes constructed by the British to defend Singapore against pirates and military invasion. The guided tour weaves in interesting anecdotes from former residents at Mount Faber and military personnel stationed in Sentosa. The tour also provides an excellent opportunity for Singaporeans to discover the history and heritage of Mount Faber and Sentosa beyond its tourist-centric programmes. The tour is one of the nine guided tours developed and organised by civic organisation My Community and is supported by Sentosa Development Corporation and Anglo-Chinese School (International).

  • BICO Undergoing Restructuring Exercise
    Established October 1895 New gender policy on the horizon Page 5 Friday February 20, 2015 $2 VAT Inclusive POTENTIAL FOR MORE EXPORTS THERE are several opportunities for Barbados to boost its exports to China. Pointing out that China has a popula- tion of $1.3 billion, with a significant in- terest in other cultures, Senior Officer with the Barbados Investment Development Corporation Paula Bourne highlighted that while there has been a marked increase in trade between Barbados and China since 2007, there was still significant potential for export growth from the island. She noted for example that products such as rum and sea island cotton could be marketed and sold to the People’s Republic of China as well as music and cultural items. “While we are small and we often think that we do not have a lot to offer, China attaches great importance to economic trade and cultural relations with Barbados and the wider Caribbean. There is significant business potential that can be developed between the two countries and we need to step out and ex- plore,” she stated. Bourne stressed that private sector companies must work with facilitators in order to get samples of their products into Chinese markets. Noting that there were 2.4 million mil- lionaires in China, she pointed out that by gaining the interest of a few of these in products and services of the Caribbean could make a significant difference. In addition, she suggested that in the same way that China had trade agree- ments with various countries across the world, it is time that it also had one in place with Caricom.

Patrick Watt 25 August 2017 2 ABSTRACT In terms of the British Army in the Great War, the study of whether or how the army learned has become the dominant historiographical theme in the past thirty years. Previous studies have often viewed learning and institutional change through the lens of the ‘learning curve’, a concept which emphasises that the high command of the British Army learned to win the war through a combination of trial and error in battle planning, and through careful consideration of their collective and individual experiences.
