Mr.. la Fargo has referred to Pro-

The work that Professor Goodyear

strange that while abroad he has been

How the curator Of fine arts of the
Brooklyn museum was led to begin his
Investigations is interesting. Travel

glance went TO the tower. his second

obliquity in the string course his study
of the subject that has had such I'M
portant results began then and there,
and, needless to say, his stop in Pisa
was much prolonged.
On going outside the walls OF the
citv to obtain a view Of the entire
structure of the cathedral it impressed
him like a ship under sail Instead Of
the tame inactiOn of a building there
was motion, life, vibrance. The effect
was wonderful. He did not understand
1t. But on his way back he stumbled
upon the little Romanesque church OF

The measurements then taken in that
church were the first made in cOnnec-

fessor Charles Eliot Norton pronounced
the most important contribution to the
subject since RUskin wrote the Seven
Lamps of Architecture" Some OF his
finest testimonials have come to him

the church with Professor Goodyear
he exclaimed:
'Any favor which you may ask I will

would be a request to surrender his
Office. Professor Goodyear IS an hon
