TRADITION IN ARCHITECTURE.
Phases Through Which American
Building Styles Have Passed.

tNEZEs
Forum The European designers have
teen so carried away with the freedom of
The new art that in architecture, where
Aw must reign at least in a measure,
they AVE allowed the freedom of the
lew spirit in design to degenerate into
license and even anarchy. The reason of
this Ia clear. Tradition, which has al
ways, In architectural styles, ministered
Tor q while to progress in refinement, by
concentrating all effort upon the perfect
ing of the details Of the style, has just as
uniformly In the end led to sterility in
tesign and then to a final reaction. This
b what L. taking place in France, Bel
.gium. Germany and Austria, where the
too academic formality Of the long-ac-
septed classic revival has bred WEAKNESS
and revolt.
In our own lane we have suffered more
from the absence Of traditions than from
their despotism. American architecture
las only In recent years begun to learn
the value. and master the use for our W
special requirements, Of the forms and
fetails of the Renaissance and classic
:evivals, Of which the French and Ger
mans have become SO tired. Dur problem
has been how to evolve order out Of the
chaos Of styles: how to bring the too free
mdiVidualism of an architects efforts,
and the endless variety of our changing
requirements, under the harmonizlng In
duence OF unifying principles OF taste and
style. It is not more variety, but greater
unity, that our architecture has needed;
not greater freedom. but more restraint.
The last ten years have witnessed a
notable advance In this direction, due, no
soubt, In part at least. to the influence
of the American schools of architecture
and the Paris Ecole des Beaux-Arts with
their thorough training in the principles
of sound composition and rational plan
aing, and the emphasis they place on the
monumental and artistic handling of the
masses of a design. That their training
results In no mere slavish repetition of
hackneyed and traditional forms Is seen
!n the freshness and freedom of our
adaptations of the historic styles of the
Renaissance of our special needs. Very
few of our most successful architectural
works Of recent years could be by any
chance mistaken for European buildings.
Dnder these conditions there could be no
occasion for an artistic revolt like that
which has Produced The art nOuVeau in
EUROPE. But as every European fashion
Is likely sooner or later to become the
Fashion or the fad on this side of the
pecan, 1t speaks we'll for the taste of the
public and the good sense of the archi-
'tects of the United States that they have
f%!iscerned the distinction between the de-
fnands of architecture and those OF the

Coffee drinking troubled the family
Of a physician Of Grafton, w. Va, who
describes the situation briefly:
Having suffered quite a while from
vertigo, p%alpitation Of the heart and
many other arrangements of the nerv-
GUS system and finding no relief from

to see how much there was in the Pos
tum argument against coffee.

the coffee, and to my surprise and sat
tsfaction have found entire relief from
all my sufferings, proving conclusively
the baneful effect Of coffee and the
way to be rid of it.
81 have found Postum completely
takes the place of coffee both in flavor
and in taste. 1t is becoming more pop
ular every day with many Of our peo-
pie and is having great demand here.
"My daughter, Mrs. Long, has been
a sufferer for a long time from attacks
Of acute indigestion. BY the dismissal
Of coffee and using Postum in it's place
she has obtained complete relief.
II have also heard from many others
who have used your Postum very ia

Guatemala City.
Guatemala City is what I would call
spacious capital. 1t is the largest of the
Central American cities The population is
said to be between 1900 and $4,000 The
capital lies in a plateau nearly 5000 feet
above the sea level The city some day may
be another Washington. 1t has ambitions
of that kind. and it also has magnificent
distances. The first step in this direction
was taken some years ago when the Cen
trail American exposition was held. What
is know as the Reforma, or exposition
grounds were laid out. The museum is the
permanent memorial but much of the
bronze statuary also is retained A SPLEEN
did tree bordered drive or avenue leads to
the Reforma. Along the way are the great
military hospital. unfurnished, and the ex-
tensive artillery barracks also unfurnished
except as to the exterior.
At the other end of the city is the hip
podrome, race course. 1t is here that
the annual fair or festival of Minerva is
held One of the features of the grounds
is the imitation of Greek architecture In
the Temple of Minerva. The theater I'm
another part of the town. is also Grecian.

ment. With a sounder financial system
profitable returns are assured
Another railway project is to rebuild the
Guatemala Northern and finish the line, so
that the capital will have through railway
connection with the Atlantic at Port Bar
rios. This really, means a through lire
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, for the
Guatemala Central now joins the capital
city with the Pacific. AT present two days
on muleback and two days over the half
abandoned Northern railway are necessary
in order to reach Port Barrios from the
capital With proper facilities the journey
could be maaenin less than twenty-four
hours. The enterprise contemplates through
traffic from ocean no ocean and transshp-
ment of freight from and for the orient,
as well as local traffic. Sir William Van
Horne of Canadian and cuban railroad
fame, and Minor c. Keith, who built rail-
ways in Costa Rica to develop the banana
trade are the principals In the project l
do not know how far the negotiations with
the Guatemalan government have advanced
or what bitches may be occurring, but an
ultimate agreement Is looked upon as GER
tain. The significance of this is the conf
dence which Is shown that in the future
Guatemala will get back TO SOLID economic
conditions. These railway enterprises are
based on the establishment of healthier
financial and fiscal system.
The Country's Resources.
l have written so fully of cheap money
and cheap living in Guatemala because the
subject dwarfs everything else. 1t is al
ways in mind, because the evidences of 1t
always are in sight. So there is not much
space left to tell of the country. If there
were room to do so. instead Of my own i'm

themselves and he punctuated the infor-

fessed that on the vessel he thought they

that the posts for the barbed-wire fences
just grew, but when he saw countless miles

stretched along the trunks he paid his trib-
ute also to climate and soil He knew that
naturally trees don't grow in straight rows,
and he found the explanation. Tie posts
are poles cut from the trees branches
and when stuck in the ground they shoot up
so rapidly that they soon are trees
The North Carolina observer never got
over his wonder at the soil. The railroad
cuts gave him a chance to see that it was

the explanation. The vegetation grows 70

The Problem Presented.

How to obtain it is the great problem
which it is hoped to solve during President
Cabrera's second ADMINISTRATION No
thought is entertained of the gold STAN
dard. Guatemala will be glad to get on a
silver basis. The remedy will come when
the government follows the example of
Brazil Argentine and other countries which
have been on a paper money Spree but
have gotten over IT and now are reducing
the volume by the simple process of Gre
nation. They burn their money.
Guatemala can burn some of its SUPER
abundance. though by slow fire. The pro-
cess will have to be a gradual one, but
the country has resources enough to make
beginning by establishing a redemption
fund or compelling the banks to establish it.
In spite of the fiuctuating depression
Guatemala recently has given proof of her
recuperative powers. few weeks ago the
Guatemala Central railway extension was
opened to MaZetenango, and it is more
than probable that within the year the
Mexican border will be reached The cof-
