The outside is painted to resemble brick or given a thin veneer o"f artificial stone. , There is no telling how far the movement will go, in this age of steel. A few years ago the idea of steel furniture and inside trim for office buildings was scoffed at, and look at our office quarters and equipment now. ' Steel as material for homes is not very appealing so far, but that is probably an artistic problem more than anything else. Make steel houses attractive, either concealing the steel or recognizing It as respt'ctablo building material and frankly making tho best of it, and then tho public attitude may change. It will help greatly if our mellalurgists can realize their ideal of a rustless steel, or a cheap alloy that will not rust or stain. 1 2.60 ! 1.: J.' 1 SO.! 10.1 iik. 1 A New , Telephone Directory will be issued soon.
