Behold, An american Style of Architectme!

The new courthouse in Sioux City,
Ia. was built without graft, but that
is not its most unique feature.
It is the latest large example Of a
truly American school of architec-
.ture.
The design does not follow the
precedent Of any country or period
Of history. 1t is what has become
known as Form and Function" ar
chitecture. It is not only American
IN it's conception. but midwest in its
particular birthplaCe--it comes out
of Chicago.
The theory or philosophy OF this
new school Of architecture Is that if
a building follows the natural lines
of its purpOse-form follows func-
tiOn-the exterior will evolve its own
natural design. so that 1t will be-
come Of natural beauty.
Architects who are following this
philosophy Of design say that it is
the method pursued by nature in
producing beauty; that the reason,
for instance, a tree is beautiful is
that all its elements have their pur-
/ pose Of function; that even its color
and texture have their function. AS
Emerson puts It: Nature does
nothing for show. yet it's all show!"
The followers Of this new style
also use the illustration OF a full
| rugged schooner as not being de-
signed as a thing OF pure beauty,
| but rather as a thing OF use; yet
| il has pure beauty by reason OF the
| fact that It's entire structure follows
natural lines or the line OF least re-
sistance.
The architects OF the Sioux City
courthouse have applied this Form
and Function" principle by taking
the county offices or departments
most freduented by the public and
: placing them where they are most
easily available In the lower two
floors. which form n base structure.
From this base structure. which
occupies a quarter city block, there
arises a tower, like that OF any tall
office building, and which houses de-
partments less used by the public
These are reached IN the usual way
by elevators.
The verticle lines OF the exterior
follow the form Of the steel structur-
al supports with decoration at GER
tain points and on certain surfaces
for relief.
Matters OF taste are matters OF
habit rather than logic and reason.
and the first public exhibition OF
the plane Of this Sioux City court
house brought loud protest
But since completion the structure
has grown upon the public and all
now point 70 it with true commun-
ity pride as being a new milestone in
progress OF the worlds architectural
art.
Sullivan Is Originator.
The originator OF this Form and
Function" style OF architecture was
Louis II. Sullivan. practicing archi-
tect OF Chicago for more than 25
years. The Auditorium and the
transportation building at the
worlds fair in that city in 1898 are
the most conspicuous examples OF
his work
The Wainwright building. St.
Louis. a tail office structure. was the
first building to completely embody
his theory.
Even in Europe Sullivan is credit
ed by critics as sounding the only
new note in the architectural are IN
$50 years or since Michael Angelo.
The Woodbury. county courthouse
at Sioux City was designed by the
best known pupil OF Sullivan. VIII

AMOUNT FOR DAIRY AND
ANIMAL HUSBANDRY
BUILDING SET AT 5000, 600.

A resolution requesting of the Board
of Trustees that an item of S200,0 900 be
included in the budget of the New Jer-
sey State Agricultural College for a
classroom, laboratory and Office build
ing to be devoted to dairy and animal
~husbandry was recently passed by a
large committee representing all Or
CARNATIONS of the state in any way
allied with its dairy and animal hus-
bandry interests.
Over 8 100000 worth of milk, meat
products and pure-bred stock is pro-
duced annually in New Jersey, whose
investment in dairy and animal indus
try including animals. land, building
and equipment is greater than that of
any other branch of agriculture in the
state.
The request for the building is also
based on the belief that not only is
hygienically pure milk vital to the
welfare of the people, but that in the
economic changes taking place in the
production of pork, beef and mutton,
the state should be producing a larger
proportion of its meat within its own
borders, and that the agricultural col
lege, through it's research, resident
teaching, extension teaching and reg
ulatory procedure bears a direct and
vital relation to the development of
the dairy and animal industry in the
| state.
Investigations of classroom, labora-
tory and Office facilities as found at
present at the college have proved the
vital need for a building which will
adequately represent the dairy and
animal husbandry interests of the
state.

WONDERS
OF AMERICA
BY T. T. MAXEY
HOME OF WASHINGTON
g. Western Newspaper Union.

IN THE peaceful and picturesque
" shore Of the River Potomac, some
sixteen miles south of our national
capital, stands Mount Vernon-the
home of The Father of His Country.
1t was so named in honor Of Ad-
miral Vernon of the British navy and
1t is to the efforts of the Mount Yer
non Ladies' association of the Union
that the citizens of America are In
debted for the preservation of this
national shrine.
Occupying a site of great charm,
commanding u sweeping view of broad
river and pleasing landscape, is this
grand old mansion-to which the young
officer came to live shortly after his
marriage and to which he retired from
the presidency, to spend his days in
a BETTING n of his rank,
means and time, and where he died
in 1899.
The structure was built in 1743
and contains many of the original
furnishings and relics of the family.
Clustered about it are the barn, coach
house, spinning house, meat house, ice
house, wash house, kitchen and other
outbuildings. Nearby is a remarkable,
old-fashioned garden, with quaint,
oddly-designed spaces set off by box
hedges, said to be $50 years old. In
this garden is a coffee tree said to
have been planted in 1924 by General
Lafayette and cuttings from a willow
tree which 1t is claimed were brought
from the grave of the great Napoleon
at st. Helena.
Enclosed in two marble sarcophagi,
In a small and simple structure within
the grounds, rest the remains Of Cen
eral George Washington and his con-
sort Martha.
