Chicago Record-Herald: Born in q
cement cradle, fed from cement dishes
that rested on cement furniture, the
modern baby-a product of "the re
juvenated state age"-may at last be
laid away in coffin of cement. All
that is lacking to make the list of ne
cessities complete Is cement food.
Those wonders are disclosed at the
Coliseum. If any conceivable use to
which cement might be put is not illus
trated at the show nobobdy has it.
There are cement houses, house
furniture, dishes, statuary, founda-
tions, blackboards, garages, bridges,
fence posts, bathtubs, subways and
tanks.
Among the most interesting ex-
hibits found at the show are those that
have to do with the city plan. This
department includes monlithic work
loaned by the Lincoln Park board and
duplicates of the monumental electric
Hight posts, which have been installed
on Lincoln Park Boulevard and Sheri-

of the models of this proposed improve

the list of exhibits. The model of

One of the beautiful features of the
show that attracted attention of all
of the visitors is an Italian garden
just off the center asile. For a back.

that has as its central figure a woman
standing between two decorative
panels. In the foreground are palms,
rosebushes and other plants, all bud

across the aisle is bungalow in the
course of construction, the model of
an $1,000 home to be erected on the
north shore this spring. Along with
it are dozens of models of houses
