FINE MEMORIAL BUILDINGS.

Other new edifices OF surprising
beauty and dignity are the group of
memorial buildings erected by popu-
lar subscriptions from citizens OF ev-
cry state. They include the Washing
ton Memorial chapel, the Thanksgiv-
ing tower and the Patriots hall. Serv-
ices are held in the chapel by its rec
tor, the Rev. W. Herbert Burk, who
started the movement for the erection
of the buildings in 1908. The entire
group OF buildings are of the beautiful
Collegiate Gothic type of architecture.
They house a collection of Revolu-
tionary relics and library of Ameri-
cana which is unique. 1t is estimated
that 100000 will be needed to COM
