Abstract

"Gyp" water is for many people the only means of acquaintance with gypsum. A grayish deposit in the tea­ kettle and the difficulties encountered when "gyp" water is used for laundering do not serve as a fitting introduction to the beautiful alabaster of the Taj Mahal. For alabaster is gypsum, too. There are still other forms of gypsum which are making this mineral increasingly important.
