ARCHITECTS TURNING

Public interest seems about equally
divided between Edison's famous

Houses" says Brick. A perfect model
OF a comfortable home. even TO tho
grass lawn about it, he tile house was
built IN Sc hours. complete in every
detaill Some of the parts have pur-
posely been left upholstered so that
the mode of construction may be fully
understood. for it is a. novel mode of
building houses, though the same kind
of tile has been used i'm the construc-
tion of big buildings for the past thirty
Years Tile freproofing has been the
standard, the accepted perfect protec-
tion of steel framing since fireproof
constructions has been In vogue, it has
also been used extensively in grain
elevator building. but the present ex-
hibitors have only recently adapted
their product, this hollow terra Gotta.
TIE or block to house building. where
the expensive steel framing, columns
and beams familiar TO everyone who
has seen a skyscraper being built, is
entirely eliminated. The block con-
struction. outer walls, floors and parti-
tions are self supporting and develop
wonderful strength and. of course, are
practically everlasting
AS shown in this exhibition such
house may be erected in an exceeding
ly little while and not suffer by the
haste. The blocks being hollow make
q home perfectly dry. It is cool in
summer and warm in winter, inde-
structible by fire. positively vermin-
proof and sound-proof. 1t costs, initi-
ally. a trihe more than an ordinary

pairs and deterioration, inside of five
