of very great interest, nearly two hundred entries being received, and
such exhibitions in the future are to be most earnestly desired.
On December 5, 1908, at a regular meeting, the Club voted to es-
tablish a fund for the support of the educational work. This fund was
to be known as The Education Endowment Fund, and was to be held
by three trustees, under a deed of trust, a certain proportion of the in-
come to be turned over to the treasurer of the Club for purposes to
be designated by the trustees. Mr. Robert S. Peabody, Mr. Robert D.
Andrews, and Mr. R. Clipston Sturgis accepted their appointment by
the President as the first trustees. On October 2nd, at the annual
meeting, a new article in the constitution was adopted, providing for
this fund as a fundamental part of the Club organization. Of course
a very small part of such fund can be subscribed by the Club members,
and it is hoped that people who are able to give, and who are inter-
ested in such efforts along the lines of what is known as continuous
education, will recognize the work along this line that the Club is
striving to do, and will give it the substantial backing which it needs
by contributions to this fund.

In the succeeding pages we illustrate a few of the buildings in which
"Tapestry" Brick has been used. The monumental character of these
buildings and the high standing of the architects from whose designs thev
have been erected, is of itself sufficient proof that "Tapestry" Brick is in
no sense a "fad," but that it has taken its place as a standard building
material, combining in the highest degree, economy, utility and beauty.
Ilad thedesigners of these buildings had the least doubt as to the real merit
of the material or the ultimate success of its use, it would not have been
chosen for work of such importance.
Lack of space prevents our illustrating further examples, but the excellent
produced by "Tapestry" Brick in buildings of a similar nature in almost
effects
every large city east of the Mississippi River, warrants our statement that
"Tapestry" Brick is preeminently desirable and particularly adapted not only for country
and city houses but for churches, libraries, hospitals, clubhouses, schools, fraternal
buildings and high grade apartments.
Even the careful description of the texture, bonding and selection of the
brick which we present on the following pages can give but a slight idea of
the beauty of "Tapestry" Brick; the only adequate impression is one gained
from the buildings wherein it is used, and we cordially invite not only the
inspection of those illustrated herewith, but of those in other cities, a list

Suggestion
time to time you are having various
greenhouse or conservatory propositions coming
to hand, involving questions that a greenhouse
builder could be of assistance to you in deciding.
If you would then just phone or drop us a
line, we will cheerfully co-operate with you in
every possible way. In looking over last
year's business, it is interesting to note what a
large proportion of it came through the architects,
and in checking off the jobs, to recall how pleasant
our relations had been. Can we be of any serv-
ice to you right now ?
