anecdote told about Ay. King by

FOR CITY IMPROVEMENT.

proposed by the Municipal Art society
of New York city and it certainly
should be carried out Recognizing
that the exposition must provide itself
with equipments that are essential to

is asked why these should not be of the
model sort. and so constitute an import
