had their effect upon local business
conditions. Premnturely balmy

day long and the crowds were Ospe-
Cinlly dense from noon until lato nt
night. Trade WIS brisk IN all lines

had better sales than those dealing

weather bred ambition for new
spring things, and clerks behind tho
counters Of mems clothing stores,
naleswomen and men. IN department
stores and womcns garment and

crowds was that there were so

Liberal Arts
The Liberal Arts building, one block
to the east and facing Seventh street,
is one of the city's most beautiful
single structures, both from the
standpoint Of constructive and artis-
tic design and as an exhibition of
fine craftsmanship. The building is
designed in a modified classic style
with a Greek Ionic colonnade. These
columns, whose bases rest upon a
high rusticated base course, are very
beautiful in proportion and detail,
the architects making use of that
most wonderful order of the ancient
Greeks used on the Temple of the
Erectheion. Inscribed in the frieze
over this colonnade are the words.
"This Building Dedicated by the Peo-
Pile of the District to the Study of
Liberal Arts" On the pavilion at
each end of the building are inserted
carved letter panels of authors

tended, forming court. This court
of which the colonnade forms the
center, when properly lawned and
planted with trees and shrubbery
will make a very pleasing addition
to Phoenix school architecture.
Industrial Arts
Compare the old original building
of the present Phoenix Union high
school group which was converted
from a former residence into a place
of education, with the newly COM
pleted Industrial and Liberal Arts
buildings just completed for this in
stitution. This visible evidence of the
advance in educational ideas and
architecture bring forth wildly the
progress of the community Both OF
these buildings are of the finest con-
struction used today. being practical
ly fireproof and of Glass A construc-
ton; walls, columns and floors are
of concrete, armored with steel.
There are no finer buildings devoted
to education in the state than these
recently completed buildings. Modern
engineering, invention and research
has been used to make them eff
cient in every sense of the word. In
visiting the Industrial Arts building
for short while, it is noted that
here large spaces devoted to shop
work are lighted from the top by
skylights, giving the best possible
light for working on articles of wood
