brightest hours of the convention,

THE VERMONT BUILDING.
A Caledonia County Visitor at the
Worlds Fair Speaks Her Mind.

WOrIu'S FdIT JU6dkS HcI hIHu
Correspondence of the CALEDoNIANl
Although no art critic, my heart has
burned within me to speak word in
regard to our much criticised state
building at the Worlds Fair.
Since the opening Of the Exposition,
criticisms have been so lavishly made
concerning the impotence and foolishness
of those who planned the building and
wasted the money appropriated by our
legislature, that people, before seeing for
themselves, become unduly prejudiced
and very unfair remarks pass for truth.
1t is said that it reflects no honor up
on the state; that no building at all
would be less humiliatng to Vermonters
visiting the Fair; and that many have
"passed by on the other side" looking
with longing eyes beyond the totem
poles" to the more pretentious gables
that greet the sky.
Having heard much censure, | was pre-
pared to see the disgrace to the state, 1"
l.
from the ntramural railway of where
a building ought to be" was not prepos-
sessing. Full of disgust started to find
the miserable little thing" which some
body told me was "out of sight, some
where among the state buildings" l
found it and surprise and delight came
with the finding, for it certainly is a
thing OF beauty" in design and execu-
ton.
One, at least who went "to scott re-
manned to pray"
1t is true, that it might have been
larger; that it might have been higher
that it might have had towers reaching
to the skies; that it might have been
marble from foundation to topmost stone
and that it might have been a complete
ex position in itself. 1t is none of these
and, after wandering among the magni-
hcent state displays, one comes to this
villa" for rest and delight, just as our
worn brothers and sisters from the city
come to our green hills for Natures
healing.
The more one studies the building the
more it grows in beauty. A gentleman
just returned from Pompeii declared it
to be the most charming thing of the
whole Fair, because the reproduction of
a Pompeian villa has been so faithfully
carried out.
If one will study the building he will
find enough to repay him for any effort
of this nature If he is the least imagin-
ative he may, while listening to the
water of the fountain in the court, hear
the step of some blind Nydia or seem to
catch her song, Buy my fowers-O
buy-I pray" He may pass from the
throng OF people and the living present
to the past when Pompeii was full of stiI
and living men.
Vermonters may congratulate them
selves that beautiful conception has
been so faithfully executed, and that g
model was taken from a people of art
wealth and refinement
The first idea in regard to state build
ngs has been carried out by Vermont
and her building is a delightful resting
place for visitors. Every Vermonter
should feel thankful that for the sake o
display the state is not burdened will
debt. No disgrace attends the fact tina
good sense, modesty, and beauty char
acterize the Vermont building,
