Ever sir.'e the plas ter has been known as plaster of par- • t, although now it is used ,n many forms. The remnants of the plaster over the pyramid of Cheops show* unir.is tc-kabh that it was made from gypsum. The Cheops was completed si .*w|(-e bcwien S."*0 and yi^r. E. C., so the Use of gypsum ,s P ol tbly i lo«e to yeats old. The e.rrlv writings of Aristotle. Pliny, Ther.phrss- and o h* Greek pi,ilosopheis show* that gypsum and it* u-»a were known to them. Being soft, wh.i'e tr.d translucent, it come to bo caned into v;.-es and other ornatnen’' and was also used in temple y all* for the admission of lUht before the dl»< every of glass. The renaissance of gypsum came rbout in 15-10 A. D. The Pari* shepherd made a fire in a hearth of loose stones. The beat calcined some of U.e stones, causing them to crumble Into a fine whi'e powder, which was shortly wet by a storm and convened Into pla-ter. When the pla.-'er dried end set, it cemented the other stones together Into a solid hearth. Thus cr me alvout the discovery of ' plaster of pans.” The value of gypsum soon spread to other countries and now is mined l in France, England, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Sicilv, Canada, New- i foundland. United States ar.d parts of South America Calcined gypsum ! is used, amoi.g other ways, in the I n : nuf?.''urer of partition tile, plaster ! board, wall plaster*, and to make colds for ha's, potter' and rubber j stumps, in dental and surgical work, as a filler in paint and piaper^or in • e:ior de'orating at.d for temporary itructures. such as fair buildings.
