plans to open In northern Italy practi

with American laundries, kitchens and
dining rooms, where girls may learn
free of charge the work that will be
required of them, Then they will come
to this country, where they will easily
secure places on the strength of their
practical education. It Is thought that
persons of Intlucuco lu Iwth countries
will bo ready to help this work, which
Is philanthropic lu the best sense In
that It promotes tho elllcleney of the
worker and Insures good service to the

between tho computations of the Cen

Tho temporary ngrsement, or modus
vlvendt, between the United States and
Great Itrltnln regarding tho rights of
American fishermen In Newfoundland
wuters has stirred up considerable op
xisltlon In sevcrnl parts of the llrltlsh
Empire. The present Liberal govern
ment In London has agreed that tho
American llshcrmen may uso purse
seines, and may employ Newfoundland
crews, although both of these things
nre forbidden by the local laws of the
colony. Tho agreement Is to continue
until an understanding can bo readied
as to tho rights guaranteed to Ameri
can fishermen by tho treaty of KSls
and does not grant any right which
that treaty does not appear to protect.
The people of Newfoundland charge tho
British government with betraying the
Interests of the colony. In Natal thu
arrangement Is regarded ns n blow at
the system of colonial autonomy. It Is
urged that the affairs of a self-govern I
Ing colony should not bo discussed with
a foreign state until the Imperial gov!
eminent has the concurrence of tho
colony Interested. In London the oppo
sition condemns the government for
what It calls "n complete surrender to

opinion on these partisan charges. The
ilshlng rights of Americans In Cana
dian waters were recognized by tho
llrltlsh at tho samo tlino that they
recognized the ludciwndenco of tho Con
tlncntal colonics. The revolutionists
successfully contended that tho fisheries
of tho whole Atlantic coast were n
valuablo asset of the territory which
had won Its Independence. After the
war of 1812 tho llrltlsh claimed that
tho previous trpnty was nullified by the
hostilities, but tho American, commis
sioners refused to admit that conten
tion, nnd Insisted that tho recognition
of our rights In tho fisheries was ns
Irrovocahlo as tho recognition of tho
Independence of tho colonies. Tho con
ditions under which tho rights might
bo enjoyed wero slightly modified In
the trenty of 1818, still In force. Other
nnd temporary agreements hnvo been
made, but when they expired the old
trenty again becamo active. Tho early
rights, which were conceded lu tho
first pencil treaty between tho mother
country nnd tho colonies, have been
mod I lied so many times that tho Now
foundlanders nnd many llrltlsh nnd
American have come to think that
they are not rights nt nil, but privi

l'ulillo Not (irnrrnllr Informed na .
Ilia True Worth.
The real necessity for education in
architecture, In our minds, Is not to
teach tho public what Is good archi
tecture so much ns to bring them to n
closer appreciation of thu function tho
architect plays lu public work. To
many people he Is still n sort of upper
craftsman, less buslucEslIko than a inn
Kin, not as practical ns a carpenter,
but one who Increases the cost of n
building from some unknown reason
nnd keeps tho builders all guessing.
Any ono who looks bnck over tho
progress of tho profession In this coun
try for the last quarter of u century
can readily appreciate how modern n
thing the American architect U and
how little he Is understood. The nation,
the cities, the Individuals have thrown
opportunities nt tho profession with
both hands. Tho profession tins never
t-eeu (julto equal to It, but tins mado n
brave fight and Is lighting still.
When we say that the public appre
ciates nrchltecture wo do not mean
that the appreciation Is n knowing or
nn Intelligent onu It slmply'llkea a
large, handsome piece of building con
struction, and, generally bpesiklng, tho
public tlint goes by ou the street will
take kindly to the really good archi
tectural monuments,
Thero Is, however, beyond n question
a great work to bo done, nnd the sug
gestion to educate tho public by means
of tho creation of museums of architec
ture Is one which deserve careful con
slderatlon and which If carried out
very generally would undoubtedly do n
gieat deal to bring about tho desired
results.
It Is snfe to say that tho collection
of nrchttecturnl casts In the Metropoli
tan museum at New York U studied
nnd admired more than any other one
feature of that magnltkvnt collection,
nnd theivought to be similar collections
In all of our largo cities. Whether the
tlmn Is vet rliH for them to be Inde
pendent collections Is n question.
Kvon now nearly all of our muse
ums have a mow or less general collec
tion of architectural easts and If these
could bo enlarged so as to bo more
siKHJlIlc In their Illustrations to In
elude models of complete buildings of
the best typo, with examples of decora
tions of furnished Interiors nnd with
perhaps In connection therewith exhibi
tions of architectural drawings they
would become powerful educational
agents. Itrlckbullder.
