PEOPLE WILL LIVE IN GLASS HOUSES -- rE Buildings . on _ Stilts. With "Automobiles Running Beneath ARCHITECT FORESEES Poor and Rich Surrounded by Light, Heat and Beauty " {ondon~Homes built of girders ind steel, Great skyscrapers that every room will have 'guata of sunshine, = Shops and large stores built in tiers with promenades to each tier above the street, and window displays restaurants, and orchestras on the terraces, These are only a few of the fea- tures of the London that will rise in the future, forecasts Oliver P, Bern- ard, architect, in the London Sunday Express, . Ye fs the vision of a London that must. come, unless we are to struggle perpetually in an ever-growing con- gestion, Nh "If there is one startling fact today, it is this--that the vast majority of what we call "modern" buil ings are hopelessly obsolete, We have houses that keep out air and sun, enormous Blocks of shops and offices: that do the same, and, in general, an archi. 'tectural method utterly unsuited to the needs of present-day transport, Our houses harbor dust and dirt, they require complicated and expen- vive "systems of ventilation, and 'they femand continuous artificial lighting, save in a small proportion of their so constructed its, full "rooms, High buildings in crowded areas cut off "aht and air from each' other, and from the streets between them, + and for all their imposing appearance, are simply gigantic engineering and architectural failures, : . "How will this be remedied? Tt will be remedied by making use of simpl- "er, unornamented designs, scientifi- cally planned inferiors, fittings, and furniture, and the efficient utilization of modern materials, such as steel, concrete, and glass, The most brilliant architects on the Continent and in the United States have led the way with new designs, and the time is not far off when we shall see those designs as realities, We shall live in a London built on iers, The old method of dig- ging down and building on founda- ions that let in damp and rot will ie abandoned, and with it the un- _healthiness, inconvenience, and inef- ficiency of basements, : "The new buildings on stilts will in- crease road space to an incalculable peat 24 8.8.0.0 0 8 0 80 0 0 0 880 0 0000 PPP TTeTTTYTYTTYYY TIME TABLES C.P.R, TIME TABLE, Effective April 29, 1929, (Standard Time) 5. $ am, Daily Wen 6.23 a.m, Dally, 8.40 hoo ally except Sunday, 4.35 pm, Daily, : 7.3 pm, Daily, 10.05 a.m, Pally, 04 po, y 8,03 p,m, ayy except Sunday, ,. 1110 pm, Dally, 12,03 a.m, Daily, "All "times shawn above are times trains Aepart from Oshawa Station, CANADIAN NATIONAL RAILWAYS Effective April 28, 1029, (Standard Time) East Eas 8423 a. i except Sunday, 8,58 a.m, Sunday only, ,59 a.m, Daily, 17 p.m, Daily except Sunday, 32 pam, Daily except Sunday, 47 p.m. Daily except Sunday 242 pm.

Down below there will be special streets at different levels for the va~ vious grades of traffic, while pedes- trians will be able to walk, for busi- ness and shopping purposes, at what will then be "ground floor level" -- actually first floor level, The modern garden city will inevi- tably' disappear, Jt is already being realized that as a solution to the town-planning problem the garden city idea is almost useless, Tt is no good spreading indefinitely outwards, gating up the countryside, and mak- e journey to and from business increasingly long. When de build up- wards we shall have a compact, ac- cessible, healthy eity, full of light and beauty, We shall have the true gar- den gity, One of the great features of this future London, as I have said, will be the use made of glass, People are accustomed to think of glass as a fragile, brittle substance, only fit for windows, mirrors, drinking vessels, and so on, The fact is that glass, when used in sufficient thickness, is one of the toughest materials known, It can easily be used not merely for windows, but for walls, both interior and exterior for floors, doors, and even pillars, The means of supply is inexhaust- ible=~we have all the Sahar to draw on, if need he--and the methods of treating glass are practically flimit- less, It can be painted, enamelled, dyed, etched, sand-blasted, decorated, moulded=anything that artistic ine vention or utility can dictate, Also, it is cheap, clean, and therefore heal» thy, It i snon-ahsorbent, does not harbor dust, and is absolutely damp- proof, It will solve the whole question of natural and artificial lighting, since buildings constructed largely of glass can be made self-illuminating. Light. ing schemes will be incorporated in the actual fabric, and in the nights of the future we shall have houses male of light, Dingy lamp-posts will be forgotten, for light will then be radiated in great masses, or concen- trated for special purposes, according to need, With all this, of course there will be a greatly extended use of electri- city and electrical domestic appara- tus, The housewife of a hundred qear hence will no more dream of eing without a full electrical home equipment than the housewife of to- day dreams of being without a water supply, t must not be thought that these visions of a steel and glass city are mere dreams, Already, in Germany, an architect has prepared plans for flats and other buildings of steel and glass, and in Paris the structural use of these materials is increasing by leaps and bounds, The great needs of our modern cities are light, air, and space, and those needs will be met in the ways 1 have outlined, In England at present there is a res markable house; it is, in fact, the most remarkable house in the whole country, It was built at Northampton by Professor P. Behrens and Mr, Bas- sett-Lowke ,and it represents archi. tecture reduced to its simplest and most efficient terms, It is one hun- dred 'years ahead of any building in the kingdom, Though it is not the glasshouse of the future, it is built on the essential principles that will govern the houses Felt Bres. 7 he LEADING JEWEL Machinery Repairing IBN STGIT BGI 1A by SMT LT 0 1), of tomorrows=design and decoration made to follow function and purpose, not utility ow last, and mere ofna- mentation first, ' 1 look to the time when every member of the community, no matter whether rich or r, busy or idle, will be able to live under "identical basic conditions of health, light, com fort, and beauty, I look to the time when we shall walk with our friends on summer evenings among foun~ tains and gardens, far above the dome of St, Paul's, while down below the commerce of the city moves on swift wheels that are never forced to & standstill by such an antiquity as a traffic block, re re-- rr ---- KEDRON ANNIVERSARY Kedron, June 20~0On Tuesday af- ternoon and evening, June 18, the Kedron Anniversary services were continued, In the afternoon begin- ning about 3 o'clock a dainty supper was served by the ladies, At 0.30 an interesting softball game 'Was pared 'between Ebenezer and Brook- in ladies, Ebenezer being victorious, In the evening the Ebenezer Drama- tic Club presented the popular play, "Between the Acts," Mrs, Annis and W.

Lord Irwin is going on a short leave, "It will be my duty to represent 10 His Majesty's Government the ditfer- ent standpoints of those who gan speak for Indian political opinion," the Viceroy added, More than 130 guests, representing official and non-official classes and va- rious schools of political thought were present, Sir Bhupendranath Mitra, president of the club, referred to the improved communal atmos- phere due to the advice Lord Irwin had given the leaders of the two great religious communities, "Though the dark clouds of communal strife have disappeared, the atmosphere is still surcharged with electricity, generated by the anxiety of the minroity com- munities to secure adequate = safe- guards in the proposed revision of the constitution," he said, The president added he looked upon the Viceroy's visit to Great Bri- tain as being undertaken essentially in the capacity as India's chief am- bassador, and he felt sure that India ELLA CINDERS-- = *° NR AN ww -- 5 _«r., 7 ~ ye 4 Wel.
