so that it may form an attractive franz

This work contemplates considerable
grading, planting, driveways, monu-
mental terraces, parapets, and, pos
sibly, an artificial lake.
The competition for this, the most
important work in the South, was very
spirited and fifteen plans were sub
mitted by architects from all parts OF
the United States. The capitol COM
mission was ably assisted by Mr.. Ber-
nard Green, of Washington, d. c., the
the supervising architect of the con-
gressional library, who pronounced the
drawing of Mr. Link distinctly superior
to all others submitted.
Mr.. Link, as an architect, has ma
tional reputation. He is member OF
the American Institute of Architects,
of the New York Architectural League,
president of the Missouri State Asso-
citation of Architects, and correspond
ing member of several European So
cleties. His best known works are the
Union Station, Carleton Office Building,
the Presbyterian Church, the Lindell
Avenue Methodist Church, in st. Louis,
and the Monticello Seminary at Cod
frey, Illinois; but it is in the smaller
public buildings, such as courthouse,
libraries railroad stations, Y. M. Z. A.
buildings and churches, scattered over
the entire middle west, through which
he has exerted wholesome and bene-
fetal influence upon contemporary
architecture.
