ities of their piano
cases. They have equipped their factory with a view to special work, and
have unusually good facilities for getting out pianos to order, carrying
out, architects' sketches or those of their own designers to harmonize
with different styles of interior decoration.
It is their idea to encourage the special designing of piano cases, and
to this end they have placed with the publishers fifty dollars to be
divided into prizes for such designs. Only sketches will be required,
their object being not to use the designs further than to publish the
best, but to get designers to give a little attention to this particular
problem, and so do a little towards creating an interest in the better
design of piano cases. Full particulars, including a structural diagram
and a statement of the technical requirements and limitations, will be
announced in our next issue.
Personal.
As usual at this season, a number of architects and draughtsmen are
planning to go abroad; some for only a few months, and others for a
longer time. Among these are Messrs. H. T. Pratt, Matthew Sullivan,
C. D. Maginnis, and H. C. Dunham, of Boston, and E. K. Taylor and H. L.
Jones of New York.
