Though this letter will hnrdly roach you In time for publication, 1 fool Impelled to ac cept your Invitation to reply to the inquiry as to Medford's needB, and ' any thing contained in this letter commends itself to you, you nro at liberty to uso it in such form as yo.i may see fit. The building of cltlos is happily emerging from the haphazard manner of "just growing" which prevailed In n the laH,t century, ntid 'R ig Into a sclenco to Imvn nililroHRed I.IWll 11111,1 Mllll'ltl . ....... w..-. - tliomsolvoJi' mil certain doflnlto prln- ili)lesiil;avjf'l Ijeen OHtabllshed tending i ot only, toward a groator perfection li sanitation and other civic necessi ties, but also having md the ar tistic development of tho city ns a whole. It would bo entirely beyond tho scopo of this letter to attempt to go Into detail In elaborating upon this theme; but a few suggestions may perhaps servo to illustrate my point. Most cltlos which havo handsome buildings aro Justly proud of thorn, but It Is equally true that in tho west, as well aB In tho east, very little ef fort hnB been mado to so locato them that their leal beauty can bo apprec iated except at close range, no at tempt for moro distant vlstns bolng made, and tho same bolng often Im possible because of tho manner in which tho streets nio laid out. Again, It frequently happens that a public or qunsl-puhllc building, such as a library or theatre, Is located in Juxta-poBltlon to othor bulldlngB of meauor appearance, so that a moro or less'olaborato facade Is all that Is visible, and the balance of the build ing 1b hardly worthy the name of ar chitecture, lly placing such buildings whoro they may be viewed from all aides, the Incentive to real urchltoo titro Is Immeasureably Mtimulated, and especially where the approaches to the building admit or diversified vlows, tho beauty of a city Is wonder fully enhanced. l)u!ldliig so con Mtructod ud located should Include nil governmental buildings, schools, churches, llbrurlo and theatres. In tho building of the business sec tion of a city regard should bo had to uniformity or height, not only of roof, but of floors and windows as well, and harmony ot design nnd solor. The most Inexpensive building, regard being had to those feature, may presont an attractive appearance, whrem a more expensive building constructed In dlsregHid of tlioie principle may, hiuI frequently has, destroyed the beauty of an entire street. To illustrate; In r square where tho prevailing tone Is gray, what eau;i more aggiealvely Inhar monious than h lurid yellow, or n red building? So. also, a jagged sky line or n xlK-tag wiitdow Hue la equally offensive U good taata. l'oellng (is I do that Med ford bas a filluro toward which she should l building, It seems to me that your city (If In fact sue has not one al rondy) should have a commission which should Jealously protect her fiOHi the thoughtless architectural blunders which have permanently marrod so many of our cities, and taat such commission should have the power to employ a cousulttug archi tect, skilled In muulclpal architec ture. audi a commission need uol neces sarily be one uutborlied by any statute or ordinance, as there Is no greater compelling force than public opinion when generally amused, and with tho well known pttbllu spirit of tho citizens of Med ford.
