FOR THE CITY BEAUTIFUL
Artistic Wave Sweeping Civilization
to More Beautiful Realization
In City Building.

An exhibition at the Royal Acad-
envy, London. illustrates concretely
and impressively the universal atten.
ton that is being given to the matter
of planning the growth OF cities and
towns upon both scientific and arts
tic principles. Not alone In what are
regarded as the more progressive
countries Of Europe Is there being
manifested a purpose to lay out the
suburban growth of cities upon care
fully devised and supervised plans.
but even Turkey and Persia have
caught something of the artistic wave
that is sweeping civilization to a bet
ter and more beautiful realization in
city building.
An idealizatior-that Is, in showing
on paper what the ideal city should be
the drawings of a few American
architects which are ON display at the
Royal Academy are concededly In ad-
vance, of any similar exhibit by any
of the European architects or city
planners. These American plans,
however, which have been drawn with
reference to certain American cities
are dreams merely-dreams that may
never come true, because In the
realization they would entail a tear
ing down and building over on a scale
of magnitude that is apparently i'm
practicable. While the United States
makes the most impressive showing
in the history Of city building, it Is
Germany that shows the best mate
realization Of artistic and scientific
ideals.
While we are talking on this side
of the Atlantic about a glorified Bal
timore or a paradisical Chicago, the
Germans are doing some real glorify-
ing in shaping not only suburban
growth of their important cities, but
in rearranging the central business
areas and the older residential sec
tions. The German exhibit at the
Royal Academy illustrative of modern
city building occupies galleries.
and what has been accomplished in
scores of German towns and cities Is
set forth by maps. drawings and in.
genious models. During the past
forty years German cities that had
been previously for two or three CEN
turtles at a standstill stage of popu-
lation growth have doubled. and in
some instances increased threefold In
population. In such cities there are
new town and old town section. but
In many instances the older sections
have been SO vastly reformed that
the early layouts, or, rather, lack OF
1ayouts. have been lost in the modi-
fications.

Dear Aunt Addy and Cousins: How
are you all enjoying this cold wealth

like it fine. I think boys should
learn how to cook as well as girls.
Some may say that it will not be any
use to learn how to cook and keep
house, for they will never have any
thing Of that kind to do. They may
not, but if they do. and don't know
how, then what? If there are girls
in the family there will not be any
use of boys keeping house and cook
ing. But it is best to learn how. Now
I will answer some questions: Frank

Elizabeth by spreading out his vel
