Not onl.y may one see the exteriors'of homes, stores, public build- ings, hunting lodges, offie buildings, villas,, c hurche .s, hotels, etc., but, one may study their interiors as wel!. The austere 1 unes of modern architecture, with their appea rance of- solidity and simplicit.y, seem t o fit well the temperamen t of- the people of the Northland. An example of this simplicity of hué a,.«ndý mass may be seen ,in, the picture of the, very unique church at. Aurejarvi,- designed. 111 by Oliva Kallio, of Helsinigfors.. In certain interioirs of homes, we find a revival of. the use of bare pine walls, with the knots in, the. Wood form ,ingý the only decoration. The exchibition was. assembled hy L. Marmnus, a Danish . architect of Cenhagen.A survey of, the build- ings show' that more and more the use of steel is being, incorporated while excéess ornamentation is strictly taboo. Terra cotta al5o is increas- ingly employed. On Friday, january 26, the Anti- quarian Society of the Art Institute, ývl give a reception to its members on'the opening of the Howard Van Dorer Shaw Memorial gallery,, in MeKinilock court.
