SHIRT FRONTS ON
 BUILDINGS SCORED
Chicago Civic Organizations
 Hit Modern Architecture

Chicago, Aug. 10 GP-Campaisns have been launched by civic beatty Organizations and bodies connected with the architectural and structural industries to eliminate two "attro- cities of modern city building - the shirt front" style of archetect. ure and the placing of unsightlv pent houses and water tanks on roofs.
 A shirt front" building is one of whcih only the street elevation is given a finished architectural treatment, the sides and back being of common brick, with no attempt at unification with the front.
 Rough Finish Spells Beauty
 Architects who design such build fngs claim that 1t Is not from in clination but at the befest of the owner or builder who wished to save money Those opposed to this build ing style point out that in skv- scraper construction the sides and rear of a building are almost as noticeable as the front and therefore the rough finish of these walls de- tracts from the beauty of the build Ing and also of the surroundings.
 The modern trend in high struct- ures among builders with an eye for beauty as we'll as utility is to treat the entire building as a unit, of which the four sides have an equal value, rather than as pile of mas onry with only a fine face. In or der to acheve this unity and also to give more pleasing appearance to sheer walls of buildings in which it is not practicable to place win dows, shaded brick often is used to create the impression of windows niches and set design.
 Hiding Water" Tanks
 The ugly roof structures. which make the skyline of many cities ap- pear as seas of water tanks and packing boxes, have come in for vigorous condemnation, particularly by city beautiful organizations. And i here, the clever architect, aided by a builder who belieces the beanty 1 achieved is worth the. money*ex- pended, is coming to the rescue.
 In many modern buildings these l structures are so placed {. as to form an integral part of the | building unit, in, other words. plac- ed inside and surrounded by a roof. of the old school large% ly were packing box affairs, with . a flat roof surrounded by a gigan | tic cornice and surmounted by small | service structures.

PADEREWSKI IN HARTFORD

To those who love music, and those who love great deeds, the name of Paderewski has become something 10 revere. Probably no man today can attract the enor- nous audience which greets this giant among men in the cities where he gives his concerts, but it is not alone his great art which draws the multitude. Of course the greatest number of his listeners are those who go to hear the musi- cal feast which he offers, some go 10 do honor to the genius Of Paderewski, and many 20 to pay homage 10 q great personality. Those associated with Padercwski duringa the stirring days from the timc of our entrance into the war until the peace conference had finished it's labors, saw new and unfamiliar Padcrewski," writes Colonel House in the latest Scrih- ners magazine. The artist. the composer, the poctic dreamer had left no trace of himself. Those who added to their regulations at the peace conference may be counted on the fingers of one hand. Most of those who came had better have remained away for they lost in the end both in influence and prestige. The conference became as fiery furnace, and few survived it's cruel and relentless flames.
 "Of these few l should placc Paderewslli first, Then followed some months of uncertainty. His fortune h6 had given away for the needs of his beloved Poland and her people. His estates were heavi- ly mortgaged and he had come to the end of his financial resources. Something had 10 be done, but what? He Is perhaps the greatest living orator and can speak in four or five tongues as well as his own, It was therefore suggested that he take the lecture platform, He received a natforng offer to do this when it was proposed that he again go on concert tour. For five years he had not practiced and musicians said that it would he inn possible for him to play again. But few things are Impossible for Paderewski, as his subsequent suc- cess shows.
 He not only returned to the concert stage but he played as never beforo, He had been through the fiery furnace and had come out Of the crucihle refined gold"

Warner Brothers greatest screen classic, that epic of the whalers of the late forties, continues to be the major movie attraction in the City and at the Lyceum, where it is showing all this week, crowded houses are the rule.
 John Barrymore. peer Of all act OTIS, Dolores Costello and George O'Hara have the leading roles. but arc supported by a cast of unusual adaptability,
 The story of 'The Sea Beast" Is two-fold. It tells of the whalers' hunt for the great white whale that so many years has eluded capture, it shows the actual harpooning of the sea monster and pictures thrills and dangers attendant upon these trips.
 The locale of the story is New Bedford, Mass, the high seas and the colorful island of Java and in this scene some really wonderful pie lures of love under the tropical moon are seen.
