The Building Of the Future

We are passing through the period
of iron and steel construction, and pres
emily we may reach point in the up
ward spiral course of progress where
we shall return to the prehistoric age
of clay. The Boston public library IL
one of the first and best examples of
construction mainly consisting Of clay
tiles within walls Of stone-more near
ly fireproof than any other building of
which I have knowledge. One cannot
doubt that the main elements of con-
struction, after a period of veneerinG
upon steel, win consist Of brick and clay
tiles. Then buildings suitable for their
purposes will be entitled to long dura-
ton, free from the danger of being
twisted by fire or weakened by rust;
but before that period is reached the art
of brick and clay must be developed
and the almost lost art of mortar and
cement must be ecovered.-Edward
