Rush Marshall on_this_subject. In common with all who know him, I have the most profound respect for his artistic and aesthetic taste. Mr. Marshall thinks a building intended for great functions and vast crowds should not cover more than. one- fourth of its allotted ground, and that exclusive of streets. Provision | should be made for parking 1,000 au- tomobiles and for the arrival and de- parture of 20.000 people in thirty minutes, and the trolley cars should await them under cover on their exit All this should be within the grounds and not on the streets. Before long we will have a_super- vision that will permit and direct an interchange of trackage between our two systems of trolley lines. Then cars n be brought to and sent from . any given point.

Now for Sale by All Columbia Dealers COLUMBIA GRAPHOPHONE COMPANY, NEW YORK Study of Suggested Place. I made a close inspection of this lo- \ | cality a day or two since. At present it presents a_decidedly disheveled appear- ance, but it struck me as an ideal spot for the purpose. It certainly is suscep.- ible of great possibilities in the way of adornment. Bordering on Rock creek, it affords wonderful opportunities for landscape effects. There is no building of value on it, and the ground would not command more than a nominal price. It is hard-by both Washington and Georgetown and practically within a stone’s throw of the fine residential sec- ich cluster around Dupont and circle Now you may say this is an ambitious scheme of magnificent proportions. Well suppose it is. s it not worth the effort Unity of purpose and unity of work not likely to fail. Between the two, wonders have been accomplished and wonders can still be accomplished. We need not put up all tnese buildings at once, but let us make a start. Some 4f the grand cathedrals of Europe were scores and hundreds of years in build- ing. Now they are a beauty and a joy { e — — . to all who behold them.
