of new officers.

On the evening of January 9, 1896, the first annual exhibition of the
Club will be inaugurated, to continue during the balance of the week.
This will be the first distinctively architectural exhibition ever
held in Cleveland.

In the last competition, "An Entrance to Lake View Cemetery," the
mentions were as follows: W.D. Benes, first; Chas. S. Schneider,
second; Wilbur M. Hall, third; Geo. W. Andrews, fourth; L.R. Rice,
fifth.

The membership of the Club is rapidly increasing, a majority of the
members of the local chapter of the A.I.A. having already become
associate members.

and all sent to some one city or club, they could be exhibited and
then passed on to the next club in the circuit.

Exchange of ideas and comparison of methods among the architectural
clubs is much to be desired and could not help resulting in
benefit. No more direct or easier way of opening relations of mutual
helpfulness could be found than this, and we trust that some one
will take it upon himself to take the initiative. Our correspondent
intimates that this might be the first step towards a national
