Henry r. Brigham, of Boston, speak

convention here.
zone of our natural handicaps in
new inventions is to get away from
precedent" he declared. Architects
and builders cling to old designs and
find it difficult to use unfamiliar de-
signs required for new materials.
Concrete and steel offer distinct op-
portunities in home building, both in
design and attractiveness."

said:
ut is far better to have the floor
joists unnecessarily braced and un-
necessarily large than to have the
floors sag, the walls and ceilings
crack and the doors jam after two
or three years. The builder may
have sold his house and obtained his
profit, but the purchaser finds that
his house is not so good as it looked
and the reputation Of its builder, and

the case was the boys father, who is
the only one to whom he can look for
the necessary $400 bail and Mr.. Pom
erleau was not sure that he would be
able to find his boy If he should go
bail for him, so he took time to think
the matter over.
Mr.. Pomerleau testified Thursday

had told Mrs. Pomerleau that he
needed some money to pay some bills
tnat ne owed, and that the only way

his mother that it would be necessary
to have her signature to a paper be-
fore he could get the money.
Mrs. Pomerleau cannot read Eng
iish and can only write her name. She
signed the paper relying upon the ex-
PLANTATION of her son. He later dis

was later found in Lewiston where
he was staying with relatives.
Young Pomerleau pleaded not
not guilty, but probable cause was
found and bail was set at $400.
