Galveston Proudly Tells World Sea Wall Saves City
WHEN Galveston was at the mercy of another great tropical
gale, when ships were being blown ashore and all communi
cation with the mainland was cut off, the question every
where was: Will the concrete sea-wall, erected to insure Galveston
from destruction, stand the brunt of the storm as it did in 1909?
/ Newspaper headlines and dispatches tell the story. Once more
the great wall, in which were used 28,500 barrels of
fIUWSS'CEMENT
stood the lashing and the battering of the gale, and is credited with
having saved Galveston.
ALPHA CEMENT has been used in a large number of con
structions where concrete had to meet unusual conditions and cement
of the highest grade was required. ALPHA CEMENT represents
24 years of experience in cement-making and is tested by expert
chemists every hour, day and night, during its manufacture. Every
bag of ALPHA you buy is sure to be as good as that used in build
ing the Galveston Sea Wall. The six great ALPHA plants have a
daily capacity of twenty-five thousand barrels.

valuable free illustrated handbook, "ALPHA CEMENT—How to
Use It." It tells and shows how to make scores of improvements.
