While the development of the project has not advanced far enough to enable us to illustrate the complete layout of the grounds and build- ings, we have illustrated all the drawings obtainable at the present time. With a site in Forest Park that offers a fine opportunity for the art of the Landscape Architect; with a sum of money at command that excels all former amounts raised for like purposes, the Exposition should excel all former exhibitions of the kind in the beauty of the buildings, and the completeness and attractiveness of the exhibits. The greatest exhibit should be the buildings, and upon the Commission of Architects rests the responsibility of making or unmaking the Exposition. It must be not only an epitome of the civilization of the world, but it must be a beautiful Exposition — one that will leave behind the memory of its beauty as well as the recollection of exhibits that mark the progress of the world up to the present time. The announced intention to make it an exhibition of processes, rather than an exhibition of products, will tend to make it a great educational factor. The people of St. Louis now have the opportunity of witnessing the development of an undertaking on a scale of unprecedented magnitude — one which calls into activity all the material resources of the age ; an object lesson in building that makes demands upon every trade and every art. This in itself constitutes an exhibition worth survey- ing, and from the interest manifested, the lesson will not be lost on the community. The intention to construct of permanent materials the Palace of the Fine Arts and the Missouri State Building on the commanding elevation overlooking the plateau upon Louisiana Purchase Exposition Architectural Notes Louisiana Purchase Exposition Washington University which will be located the main exhibition buildings, will compensate the Park for the unfortunate loss of trees, and will leave behind a permanent memorial of the celebration. The buildings contemplated are embodied in the following list: NAME DIMENSIONS Art Building, 830 x 450 ft. Mines and Metallurgy; 525 x 750 ft. Liberal Arts, 525 x750 ft. Textiles, 600 x 525 ft.

Taylor Dept. of Works Designers Dept. of Works Designers Dept. of Works Designers J. Knox Taylor Dept. of Works Designers Dept. of Works Designers In addition to the buildings enumerated, the grounds and buildings of the Washington University have been leased by the Exposition Company — the intention being to use the buildings for the offices of administration and for the housing of the Educational and other Exhibits. This adds an unusual and interesting feature to the Exposition, and one that will prove of benefit to both institutions. H The work on Washington University grows apace, and the completion of five of the main buildings promises to render the University famous from an architectural stand- point, as well as a great seat of learning. They are a source of pride to all St. Louisians, and like the imper- ishable granite of which they are built, will remain for ages to come the most vital force in the city's life — the saving grace of the community. Architectural Notes The concentration of the buildings on so commanding' a site gives a coherence to the institution it could never possess in its down-town quarters, and will do much to- wards stimulating the students with that love of their Alma Mater so pleasant to remember in after years. H The generous offer of Mr. Andrew Carnegie to give one million dollars for the establishment of a central Library Building to cost five hundred thousand dollars, and ten auxiliary library buildings to cost fifty thousand dollars each, makes it incumbent upon the Library Board to pro- vide suitable sites for the buildings. Since we have allowed the distinguished philanthropist to do for us what we should have done for ourselves, it is fitting that the City of St. Louis should add a sum sufficient to build a central building that will bear favorable comparison with the library buildings erected in other large cities. The enactment of the bill which makes it possible for the Library Board to purchase the site of the St. Louis Exposition, clears the way for the solution of the ques- tion. Situated in the central part of the city, and on one of the main arteries of travel, a more appropriate site could not be selected. It now remains for the Library Board to have a care that a beautiful and monumental building be erected — a building that will be worthy of the purpose, and one that will reflect credit upon the City of St. Louis. , H The notable progress being made by the Board of Edu- cation in the erection of schools that are second to none in point of design and adaptability to purpose, is demon- strated by the illustrations in this catalogue of the Ralph Waldo Emerson, the Edward Wyman and the Horace Mann schools. The projected William McKinley High School will afford relief for the southern district of the city, while the new Yeatman High School will do the same for the Washington University Public Library Building New High Schools Architectural Notes New ;High iSchools Charter Amendments Places of Historic Interest northern district. These two schools will go beyond the present curriculum in the addition of a department devoted to manual training. The members of the Board of Education honor them- selves in honoring the memory of James E. Yeatman, a citizen of St. Louis for more than half a century — one who was identified with every movement having for its object the welfare of the community ; a gentleman whose kindly deeds and noble character placed him first among the citizens of St. Louis. It is a source of gratification to see our new schools named in honor of men whose names stand for great thoughts and noble deeds. 11 The passage of the Charter Amendments will place in the hands of our city authorities funds with which to make needed improvements in our municipal buildings, and to repave streets that should have been paved years ago. It will also afford means for the cleaning of the streets, without which improvement St. Louis can ill afford to entertain World's Fair visitors from all quarters of the earth. H That the Daughters of the Revolution are not oblivious to those things in life best worth remembering, is demon- strated by the erection of a bronze tablet in the corridor of the Southern Hotel marking the burial place of Pontiac, the Indian Chief. Admirers of the late Eugene Field intend to mark the house on South Broadway in which he was born, with the bronze tablet herewith illustrated. Architectural Notes The awakening of the public to the realization that a great city should be something more than a place in which to make money, has found expression in the formation of the Civic Improvement League. The lack of civic pride that has long characterized the citizens of St. Louis has militated against its development as a beautiful city. Com- mercial greatness and financial resources make small impress upon the visitor who is confronted with public buildings of poor design, with miles of houses dis- tinguished only by their vulgarity, and with streets poorly paved and ill kept. A city aspiring to be called great must be a beautiful city as well as a commercial center. It can be both, but this desirable result cannot be attained by a small body of faithful workers. It must be brought about by the intelligent co-operation of a great number of people, and the Civic League offers to every one an opportunity to participate in the great work of making St. Louis a well ordered city and a better place in which to live. n- In the development of a city it frequently happens that the same site is occu- pied by several build- ings in succession. This has occurred in St. Louis within the memory of living men, and while this natural development is good for material reasons it sometimes disturbs interesting and historical landmarks that play an important part in the history of the city. The last old building to fall before the mark of modern improvement is the Brant residence on Civic Improvement League of St. Louis Disappearing St. Louis Architectural Notes Disappearing St. Louis New Club Quarters Death of Frank A. P. Burford Club Library the southwest corner of Chouteau Avenue and Eighth Street, a house that was occupied during the war as the headquarters of General John C. Fremont, and one that is among the best designed of our ante-bellum residences. While a box factory is a very useful institution in its way, it hardly compensates for the loss of so interesting a landmark. The Turner Building — probably the most interesting and beautiful of the office buildings of St. Louis, has also given way to a more modern building which will answer the demand for more light. It is such buildings that make our streets interesting, and it is unfortunate, from an architectural point of view, that it should fall a victim to modern requirements and six per cent. II The headquarters of the club have been removed to the Holland Building Annex, where rooms have been pre- pared for the joint occupancy of the St. Louis Architect- ural Club, the St. Louis Chapter of the American Insti- tute of Architects and the Engineers' Club of St. Louis. Situated in the heart of the city the rooms offer a con- venient and pleasant meeting place for members of the various societies. The rooms are open during the day, which will enable members to make use of the library. u In the untimely death of Frank A. P. Burford the Club loses one of its charter members, a former secretary of the organization and one who was thrice a member of the Committee on Catalogue. To those who were privileged to enjoy Mr. Burford' s friendship the recollection of his strong, manly character and winning personality will remain while memory lasts. 1 During the past year the Club has been the recipient of a large collection of works on Architecture presented by Mr. John B. Hughes. These books were formerly in the Architectural Notes late Pierce P. Furber of Peabody, a man whom Mr. Hughes aptly char- possession of the Stearns & Furber, acterizes as "not only a master of his profession, but a man among men." The important part which Mr. Furber and his firm played in the architectural development of St. Louis, renders this gift of more than ordinary inter- est, and it is a pleasure to make public acknowledgment of Mr. Hughes' generosity. The Club also tenders its thanks to Mr. Charles K. Ramsey for the presentation of many valuable works relating to Architecture. These gifts have materially assisted in rendering the library valuable for consultation. H The Club tenders its acknowledgments to Professor Halsey C. Ives, Director of the St. Louis Museum of Fine Arts, for his courtesy in again allowing the use of the galleries for our exhibition; to the architects of St. Louis and the various exhibitors for the loan of drawings, and to Mr. Glenn Brown, Secretary of the American Institute of Architects, for the loan of the lantern slides illustrating the contemplated improvements to the City of Washington. We are also indebted to Mr. Isaac S. Taylor, Director of Works of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, for the loan of the drawings relating to the Exposition. To the various subscribers whose co-operation has helped to make this Exhibition possible, we take pleasure in recording public acknowledgment. Club Library Acknowledg- ments Civic Improvement League of St. Louis The Civic Improvement League of St. Louis aims to unite the efforts of all citizens who want to make St. Louis a better place in which to live. Its general purposes are to create a public sentiment in favor of better administration of municipal affairs, without in any way invading the domain of politics. The League will work for a strict enforcement of all the ordi- nances now existing that are designed to make the city clean, healthy and attractive. It will work for the enactment of such other ordinances as may be needed to improve the city's ap- pearance. The League intends to carry on a continuous campaign among the people, by lectures to the school children and before social and fraternal organizations, in which the advantages of a finer city will be brought home to all. The organization will disseminate literature on the general subject of city improve- ment, showing what has been, or is being done elsewhere. The League will co-operate earnestly with every other organ- ization that has similar objects, and will interest itself in the efforts for betterment made by residents in all sections of the city. Any resident of St. Louis is eligible to membership. Turner Building, Saint Louis Peabody & Stearns, Architects 9 Doorway Bockiss House (Rendering from Photograph) J. N.

It can be moulded into almost any shape ; plain and fancy terra cotta, ornamental blocks, wainscoting and brick, highly glazed, all styles and colors, sewer, soil and insulating pipe, columns and caps, imitation of rock, all styles, and tile roofing in all colors. We produce any of the above at from 25% to 75% less than any other material knowji. For further partic- ulars and prices address General Perannite Co. No. 3850 Chouteau Ave. St. Louis, Mo. 127 Pure Tints Lasting Colors Durable Paint Are obtainable only by the use of ZINC WHITE Combination Paints based on ZINC WHITE do not discolor and do not " Chalk." Tints and Shades made with such Paints do not alter. Durability of material and permanence of color depend directly upon the proportion of ZINC WHITE in the Paint. For outside use such combinations wear better than any "Straight Paint." For inside use pure ZINC WHITE is the only Paint that can give perfect satisfaction. Experienced and careful architects specify combination Paints based on ZINC WHITE for all particular work, and for all economical work. • The New Jersey Zinc Company Two Interesting Treatises "PAINTS IN ARCHI- TECTURE" "THEPAINTQUESTION" Free on Request 1 1 Broadway NEW YORK [28 ' ELePwng cAU -gieumoD 113. momm-m^o5£5.

We do not mean by this that a fine varnished surface alone will accomplish the purpose. It will to some extent, but only temporarily. If your woodwork has not origin- ally, before varnishing, been properly treated, your fine varnished surface will not is-st. The pores of the wood will turn black; the grain and figure in the wood will look fixed; it will have no life. How then should woodwork be properly prepared for a fine and lasting finish? By firstfillingthepores with the Wheeler's Patent Paste Wood Filler, if it is an open porous grained wood. If it is a close grained wood like white wood, Georgia pine.etc., it should fir.«!t be given a coat of Wheeler's Liquid Wood Filler previous to varnishing. This will form a permanent base for the varnish to rest on, and will bring out the life and beauty of the wood, and as time goes on it will grow still more beautiful. Are there not some other wood fillers made just the same as the Wheeler, or are there not some that are just as good? No, there is no wood filler made the same as the Wheeler Wood Filler, or that is just as good. When a contractor, a painter or a finisher gives you a result for natural finish that is not as you expected, you may rest assured that he has not used the Wheeler Wood Filler, or has only partially used it or mixed some- thing else with it. This quotation from, a prominent architect, in a few words, substantiate* what we say: "I have specified Wheeler's Patent Wood Filler for about eighteen years in this city. I have tried other fillers, but do not find them equal to your filler. I went purposely to a house which I had built sixteen years before, and where your filler had been used, to examine the finishing of the woodwork and found it in excellent condition."
