Art as an Educational Force and Source of Wealth. 
The National Sculpture Society has recently issued 
an interesting brochuie on art as an educational force 
and source of wealth. It lays emphasis on the fact that 
if sculpture is so indispensable to the temporary build- 
ings and grounds of a fair, how much more important 
it is to the adornment of the permanent public build- 
ings of our cities. 
As a concrete example, consider the multitudes that 
are drawn to the Congressional Library in Washington. 
It outranks the capitol in public interest, not because 
it is a finer building, but because of the richness of 
its adornment both in seulpture and in painting. Other 
instanees are the Appellate Court Building in New 
York and the Public Library in Boston. Interesting
