PROGRESS.

"The design,commended itself to the committee as making full and effective use of the site and forming a highly attractive design. The one variation that suggested itself was that one of the towers over exit or entrance might be designed as a pagoda tower, and, if it is not 100 late when this letter reaches you, perhaps the suggestion can be considered. Please convey..to Mr. Bird the hearty congratula tions of this Committee on the success of his efforts."
