MISSOURI BOTANICAL GARDEN BULLETIN 169 
In addition to the above, attractive subdivisions for all 
pes of residence were presented in plan and photograph. 
The practice among large manufacturing concerns of pro- 
viding improved conditions for their employes is growing, 
and practically all the subdivisions planned for such pur- 
poses not only furnish ample space for a lawn and garden 
on each lot but include within the areas parks and play- 
unds for the recreation of the residents. The attention 
that all progressive cities and towns are giving the very nec- 
essary problem of city planning is of course well known, and 
the plans and perspectives of civic centers speak well for the 
possibilities of introducing beauty, convenience, and dignity 
in the arrangement of public buildings. 
* The work shown of the students promises well for the pro- 
fession at large. Harvard University, University of Mich- 
igan, and University of Illinois had fine exhibits of their 
student work, consisting of studies in home grounds, parks 
cemeteries, school grounds, subdivisions, ete. The central 
panel was devoted to the work of the School for Gardening 
of the Missouri Botanical Garden, typical work for all three 
years being shown. With the object of setting a higher 
standard for college students an organization known as the 
University Landscape Architects’ Society was formed a few 
years ago, membership being awarded to students who have 
done work of a high grade. A three-year fellowship in land- 
scape architecture at the American Academy at Rome was 
also recently established. 
In addition to the schools mentioned above, the following 
landscape architects and organizations have contributed to 
the exhibition :
