For the purpose of fastening things, a number of materials have been used as vines, grass stalks, as well as strips of animal hide and leather thong. Rope probably developed from the thongs. A single thong was found too weak for some purposes, and so two or three thongs had to be combined. To twist the leather strips into a solid rope was a short and natural step. In modern times, the use of ropes became universal. With the improvement in materials and methods came improvement in technique of making rope; and the two present methods, twisting and braiding, slowly evolved. In a twisted rope a few fibers are twisted to the right to form a yarn, then a few yarns are twisted to the left to form a strand. Three or four strands are twisted to the right to form a rope. Three ropes are twisted to the left to form a large cable-laid rope. The important element in twisted rope is the alternation of directions so that the fibers and strands pull against each other and overcome their natural tendency to untwist and fray.

But I am under obligations to various gentlemen whose suggestions, or methods, have appeared to me of great value in presenting and arranging this subject. There is the unknown gentleman—perhaps many of them —who have devised or evolved the typical method of preparing Army drill regulations of the United States. It is the most compact, exact and limpid method of standardizing and transmitting information of this char- acter that has been devised. A thousand years from now men who have never seen the execution of an evolution of our present generation could work and drill in the forgotten maneuvres with as great an exactness as soldiers are drilled to-day.
