organizations. They are now seeking quarters large enough to contain meeting rooms and place for a library. Since this meeting the chemists, whose interests are closely identified with the electricians, have made known their desire to become affiliated. The architects are also desirous of joining this organization in which all bodies retain their own identities.—Cincinnati Enquirer.

The Pittsburg Architectural Club is considering the question of holding another architectural exhibition. Mr. John Beatty, Director of Fine Arts in the Carnegie In
stitute, is anxious that the club shall hold such an exhibition as part of the Founder’s day exercises, which will be held in the new part of the Institute April 1.
