LOCAL ARCHITECTs AND THE PUBLIC BUILDING

G far as It can be done without injury to the in
- terests Of our city and county the judges who are
10 select the plans for the Joint city aud county
building at Tenth and King streets should throw the
weight Of their favor 70 Wilmington architects who
are competing with outside architects OF course the
award should be made TO those who. IN the opinion
Of the Judges submit the best plans It may be- how.
ever that local architects and outside architects will
run so close in the matter that doubt will arise IN
the minds OF the judges II such condition develop
Il would seem to be the part OF wisdom 70 give 10 the
local architects the beneht Of that doubt thereby re-
cognizing the ability Of local members Of the craft
and keeping at home the money that win be paid for
architectural work and supervision.
Taken by the broad the judges should compel each
competitor, resident nonresident 10 stand upon
his own merits. The people interested in getting
the handsomest and best building they can procure for
the money they purpose putting into it, II the local
architects serve that interest they certainly should
be preferred above all Others and We believe the Judges
viii agree With that sentiment

Nearly "a centuries have passed
since Hero embellished his city with
the theater which tradition attributes
TO the architect Democopor Myrilla.

tured that the great trilogy. which be-
gan with the "Agamemnon." was

known that the "Persae" was per
formed there and work written for
Hero by Aeschylus. entitled the EFT
