The fact that the tenacity and yield point of Group 3 arepractically the same after the hr. stay at 685° as after hr. stay there indicates that decarburization was effectivelyprevented, because if it had taken place to an appreciabledegree it would have lowered both these properties.

The hr. heating of Group 1 was not under direct ob-servation during the night, but previous experience under likeconditions makes it reasonably certain that the temperaturedid not deviate far during this period. The hr. heatingof Group 3 was controlled during the night by an autographicpyrometer, which showed that the temperature then did notpass beyond the limits of 675° and 710° given for the begin-ning and end of the night period. Fig. 2 shows all the results,and gives the maximum, minimum, and average for eachgroup, except in a very few cases in which the results agreedso closely that the differences between them cannot conven-iently be represented thus. Fig, 3 shows the maximum, mini-mum, and average of these same results taken together instead
