In any case where 1T IS decided to

crowds continually pass 1t. People
will so distance to enjoy a master
piece, and unless a memorial has such
distinction as to command attention
IT fails oe its purpose
The Type of Memorial is the sec
ond subject for consultation with the
adviser. He should know how to
spend the money available in the
manner best suited to carry out the
purposes intended.
The Selection Of the Artist should
be made with the assistance OF the
adviser. The site and type OF memo
rial having been determined, the sd
wiser should be able to furnish a list
of the artists, whether architects,
sculptors or painters, who have es-
tablfshed regulations for executing
the particular kind of work in view
One Of these artists should be select
ed, after an examination OF his con:
pleted work, and the commisstc:
should be given to him The advise
should be retained, in order to MAKE
sure that the completed work in all
particulars (including. of course, the
inscriptions) conforms to the best
standards. No lay committee is COM
petent to pass judgment on these es-
sential elements. Then, too, the ad-
wiser should superintend the land

Competitions are sometimes 1mper-
alive. In such cases, the adviser
should draw up the program and con-
duct the competition. It is rare in
deed that artists Of the highest stand

limited to selected artists Of estab-
lishcd reputation, and they do not
enter unlimited competitions. me
ostensib1e object of a competlt1on IS
to treat all artists fairly, with the
hone and expectation of developing a

Tins treating artists fairly, the work
