to end. complete departure from

to end. a complete departure from
the usual library plan.
I'VE architects see little merit in
following historic style literally
To US the only tests are whether a
building suits Its purposes. fits its
location, expresses it's character. and
is beautiful; though classic forms
have been so studied and refined
through the ages that one cannot
deviate far without confusion. Most
architectural forms can be traced
back 10 the beginning OF civilization
but there has been a notification and
development In each successive
period, for with a strict adherence TO
tradition there can be no progress.
"A motif OF one style may be
translated into another. FOR instance.
the first story curtain-wall between
tho column, terminating at two
thirds their height. is a motif OF
Egyptian architecture (e.g. the tenn
pies OF Philae) translated into Rom
an Classic. This permitted the
complete Ionic capital instead OF the
usual half-capital against wall.
In short we have felt az liberty 10
draw freely on the past but have not
been governed by strict archaeology
nor forced to copy what was done by
other men.
Very truly yours,
"(S) A. NJ. CITIZENS"

FRANKL|NOWNER.
TELLS Of TRIP
To Los ANGELES

What is perhaps one Of the most
interesting records ever set forth of
the trials and tribulations which be-
set an automobile, together with the
details of how the car mastered them,
is uttlngly set forth in a letter just
received by Robert Hunsick, manager
OF the Franklin Motor Car company,
from E. B. Miller of Los Angeles. Mr..
Miller purchased used Franklin last
month in Phoenix, a car formerly
owned by Mr.. Ward, and on Dec. %
left for Los Angeles with his car.
The reader will bear in mind that
this car had already travelled 2S, 900
miles and had had no overhauling to
prepare it for its trip In fact, it had
not been touched since it left the
salesroom to go TO its original pur-
chaser. Mr.. Miller writes as follows:
Left Phoenix Thursday morning,
Dec. %, at just Z o'clock, sailing under
fair skies. There had been some rain
between Phoenix and Buckeye that
morning, which made the detour be-
tween those two points along the bank
OF the canal little hazardous. / ex-
perlenced a little trouble before /
got to Buckeye with the gas supply
and the carburetor running out SO
that the engine would stop. I had to
get out and prime the carburetor.
After repeating this for some time !
finally drained the carburetor, re-
seated the float stem and ended the
trouble.
There were a number Of cars
starting across the desert that morn
ing. ] passed quite a few of them
and came to a coupe which was hav-
ing worlds of tire trouble. The party
had no tubes nor patches left, so /
gave them some patches and cement
and helped them mount a tire. Their
pump was broken, so l pumped them
UP with my power pump on the en-
gine. In the mean time a great many
cars had passed US but I soon passed
them and had the road to myself.
About 10 O'Clock 1t started to rain and
how it did rain! 1t didn't retard my
speed any, however. and about noon
came to Tolladay's Wells, where l
got a sandwich and a cup of coffee
for lunch. The man there told me not
to attempt to go from Vicksburg to
Quartzsite by way of the flats, as
they were covered with water, but to
go up around Bouse, which was much
further. 1t was still raining hard.
II pushed on and had only gone
few miles when / came upto a bunch
OF cars stopped In front of me. I
waited a while and then went for
ward to investigate. Found that we
had come to an arroyo that was a
raging torrent about so feet across
No one dared attempt to cross 1t, as
there were no cars on the opposite
side to pull them across should they
get stuck. I told them that if they
would help me get to the head of the
line that | would try it. There were
nine cars ahead OF me and l finally
got to the head of the line. Then,
amid the cheers of the spectators, /
started out to sea. / got nearly

strangely enough. at about this
time the sun burst forth out of the
clouds to welcome me, and ii was a
simple matter to get a photograph of
the Franklin the only car across with
the other cars on the opposite side
