RANK OF THE WHITE HOUSE
In Point of ARCHITECTURE. IL Il. In /.
Class By ItseIf,

In Point of Architecture II IL In /.
Class by ItseIf.
One moonlight night In June. 1902
while strolling through the grounds
with Mr.. Charles F. McKIm, one of the
members Of the park commission. we
seated ourselves on one OF those
mounds which tradition ascribes 10
John Quincy Adams taste in landscape
architecture. That afternoon crowds
Of people arrnyed in joyous costumes
BETTING the s%emitropics had come
from the hot city to rest under the
trees and listen to the Saturday con.
cert Of the Marine band. The must.
clans, clad In white duck, were located
in a little depression, so that the sound
of the music rolled up the slopes to the
attentive audience.
A year before we had observed the
same effect at Versailles, and both the
similarities and the differences of the
two pictures were being discussed as
we sat In the quiet night behind the
locked gates where not a sound from
the city streets broke the grateful noise
Of water %splashing in the fountains.
On the high portico the president sat
amid a group of dinner guests, and the
lights of their cigars were echoed by
the drowsy f~reflies fitting about the
grounds, only the brilliantly lighted
windows Of the secretary's office even
suggesting the workaday world. The
moonlight, shining full on the White
House, revealed the harmonious lines
of its graceful shape.
'Tell me-" l asked the architect,
"among the great houses that have
been built during recent years in the
general style Of the White House
many Of them larger and much more
costly-is there any that in point OF
architecture surpasses IT,"
mo; there Is not one in the same
class with it," he replied deliberately,
a judgment confirmed later under the
MONDAY sun.-Century.
