iffte' Lumberman to Give
.500 for Home Built
of Northwest Wood
SEATTLE, Washington, October
15 A prize of $2,500 Is offered
Ty C. W: Stimson, Seattle lumber
man, for an all wood borne design
which will best present the pos
sibilities of woods-"natiTeto the
Pacific northwest. , Mr. Stimson
has offered this prize through'frhe
West Coast Lumber Trade Exten
sion Bureau of this city. It Is to
be awarded in a nation wide eon
test open to all interested persons.
The contest will begin next Jan
nary and close July 1,-1927; Other
prizes In proportion, the Bureau
stated, will be made, available.
""This prize," Mr. Stimson said
today, "is offered to bring out
ideas. 1 have no idea what kind
of a design will result and I do
not much care. I want to empha

"Few of ns realize," he con-'
tinued, "that building in wood is
the oldest form of construction
known. It , antedates history.
There are pagodas and temples in
the Orient built from wood that
are among ' the . oldest structures
on earth and these are still the
marvel of the engineer, the archi
tect, and the 'artist,' In construc
tion, use of wood, and in beauty.
Our beautiful new Fifth Avenue
theater here in Seattle is a good
example of the architecture of the
Orient, centuries old, which grew
largely oufr.of a proper knowledge
. and use of wood.

sturdily holding their own! against .
the weight "of heavy winter snows
and "crashing avalanches. These
are built of .wood because wood is
the most durable and the strongest
material for the conditions.
"Gothie architecture, found in
Its original purity in the beautiful
old cathedrals of northern Europe,
was at the start bet a reproduc
tion of the trees la nearby forests.
The tree, firat the home and sec
ond the ideal from which the early
architect get - his inspiration for
the struct are, also gave the crafts
man his building material. Some
how I wish that an American arch
itect, " artist or handicraftsman
would translate the wbnde'rful
trees of ojur Pacific northwest in
to a type of home distinctive of
our forests. That is what - the
first Gothic architect did. It may
be done again.
"The contest is intended to
bring the use of wood, particular
ly west coast woods, to the close
attention of those who design or
who build homes. We have here
in western Washington and Ore
gon trees from which an Oriental
pagoda or a Gothic cathedral or a
beautiful modern home may be
built. . We have also the finest
softwoods , for interior finish
known today to man. Ours is the
only region in which timbers are
available of the size and length
we can readily supply and In the
wide, clear pieces we can easily
produce. I believe that popular
and technical interest In our west
ern forests will produce some very
worth while specimens of; archi
tecture. This is the reason for
offering the prize."
The contest will be conducted,
the Bureau Btated,' under the com
petition code of the American In
stitute of Architects. The condi
tions will be as follows:
1. The prize is offered for the
design of a dwelling of wood, with J
broad latitude in size and cost.
. 2. It must be based on the use
of woods native to the Pacific
northwest.
3. It must develop the unusual
possibilities of Pacific northwest
woods. ." " ' . v
4. Conventional style will - not
be considered as important:; and
the greatest leeway will be al
lowed in this respect.

ors think, It must be remembered
that the laymen help pay the bill,
and they will have something to
say about how it is spent.
Superintendent Rice of ' the
Portland public schools called at
tention to the fact that most of
the subjects upon which Senator
Eddy would have stress laid are
elementary school subjects, and
he questioned the placing of blame
on the high schools.
R. R. Turner, state, superin
tendent of public instruction,
characterized Mr. Eddy's talk as
"an extravagant picture." School
people are best fitted to wrestle
with the problem of school cur
ricula, he declared.
Dr., De Busk of the University
of Oregon, head of the research
department of the Portland public
schools, declared that the prob
lems brought up by Senator Eddy
were matters of long controversy
in the educational field and that
there is an abundance of material
to be found in them. : '
'You can't settle problems - by
counting noses and that is all that
hearings amount to," he asserted.
