ings. Last but not tlio least appreciative were our foreign visitors. 

 Many of these, staying perliaps for a few weeks and visiting few pri- 

 vate houses, found tliis tneir only opportunity of studying the interior 

 of the home of an American workingnian. 



The exhibit was indebted to the press of the country for most kindly 

 notices and criticism, and many people who would otherwise have been 

 ignorant of its existence were brought to the model home through this 

 means. 



To Prof. Lucy M. Salmon, Hon. John Boyd Thacher and the Board 

 of General Managers of New York State is due the credit of originating 

 the plan and furnishing the means for carrying it out. The work of 

 installing the exhibit at Jackson Park was made easy, and its successful 

 working from day to day insured, through the courtesy and help of the 

 ofSeials of the JSTew York State Building and exhibits, as well as through 

 the many kindnesses of those in authority in the various departments 

 of the exposition.
