Seeking New Ideas.

Owing to the many problems which
the skyscraper has developed, build
ing managers and owners all over
the world are constantly seeking
new ideas and new methods of han
ding new buildings.
The development OF the skyscraper
has been so rapid that new problems
have arisen with great rapidity. The
fact that building owners and man
ayers are anxious 10 be thoroughly
up to date leads TO the interest
which they take in the annual con-
vention of our association.
The sliyscraper problem Is q tre-
nendous one, Plans have already
been drawn for an office building In
New York city 100 stories high. We
thought that the limit had been
reached when the Singer and Metro

and fltty-two stories, respectively,
had been built. But the Woolworth

Books For Children

The growing importance of the work

tary of the library commission. In

dren's books, it is found in many in
stances 49, demand for books by the
children exceed those of the grown
ups. Word has just been received by
the department that Darlington has
received another installment of books
and that since children's books have
been placed in the library, there have
been quite an increase in demand by
children. The number of new Dor
rowers among children in 1912 has
been almost twice that of the previous
year. In the Darlington library %
per cent of the books are for children,
25 per cent for reference and so per
cent for adults. 1t would appear from
this that the children are likely to
set the pace for the older ones.

CRAY0M PICTURES HIDEOUS
They Have Hung on the Walls Of Rep

1t has been so many years that most
everybody has forgotten who they are,
SO hideous looking are the crayon pic
lures Of the former speakers Of the
house which have hung on the walls
of the library back Of representative
hall since the first congress. 1t is.
quite impossible to make anybody
who has not seen them believe how
horrible these crayons are. You know
the kind; every family has them. You
can buy the frame for $3.50 and the
crayon Ia thrown In. These have been
added year by year as the speakers
of the house came and went, and
few years ago somebody introduced
a resolution IN the house that con-
gross have all these crayons oll-paint-
ed. as the moro recent speakers had
had theirs done in oil. Now all these
speakers are Oiled" and the crayon
pictures are white elephants on the
hands Of congress. Representative
Lloyd Of Missouri. chairman Of the
committee on accounts, introduced a
resolution that all these crayons be
given to the various states from
which the speakers and representa-
tives came, and It was unanimously
adopted. Now all that remains is for
the states to ask for the pictures
They will have to pay the freight on

Evidence that the Grey Ghosts"
