In. the Centre Block from midnight to 7 a.m. each week- day they chip away at a lime- tone border 120 feet long and 4% feet wide fronting the foy- er's second-floor balcony. The work--a sculptured pic- ture of Canada's development --has been going on for two years and has another year to g0. It's Miss Milne's first major undertaking since she became architectural sculptor for the Parliament Buildings five years ago. .. "It's horrible working at night," she says. "You get so isolated. But I love my work so I guess that's some com- pensation." Miss Milne's basic job in- volves research, design and the production of full-size clay models of the proposed sculp- ture. The models are copied by the stone carvers, with Miss Milne pitching in, too. Because the building is warm, especially in winter, the work gets tiring about 4 a.m., and her work clothes are covered with carving dust. "It's very hard on your eyes. Sometimes I close my eyes and carve, That sounds crazy but it's possible."
