Сторінка 153 - Our more recent researches have led to the consideration of the following subjects: (1) the proportions of carbohydrate and albuminous matter in a colloid of the highest hydration capacity ; (2) the substances or ions of biological significance which would raise the hydration capacity of these phytocolloids to the highest limit; (3) measurement of the relative effects of some metallic bases upon a carbohydrate colloid; and (4) determination of the amplitude and continuance of alternating or repeated...
Сторінка 244 - ... they went to worship JHVH in the Temple, were in the Kidron valley between the Temple hill and Mount Olivet (contrast JBL 27, 47).

Сторінка 229 - A study of the submarine slopes of the fringing reefs of Tutuila was made by casting out an anchor upon the seaward edge of the reef, and then steaming seaward in the launch keeping the anchorline taut and making soundings at distances of 25, 50, 75, 100 feet, etc., from the edge of the reef. This enabled us to determine the slopes as shown in Fig. 3, which represents the conditions seen in various parts of Pago Pago Harbor. The vertical and horizontal scales are the same in these diagrams. We see...
