K. C. ARCHITECT GIVES TALK
Ernest O. Brostrom, a Specialist on Church Architecture
At a meeting of the Architectural Society, Friday night, Ernest O. Brosnan, of the firm of Brosnan and Dretts of Kansas City, gave a lecture on church architecture in which he gave a history of that kind of architecture and illustrations of the best of the modern forms.
Mr. Brostrom said the vertical style, that is, the style having gables and spires was in his mind much the most satisfactory. He said that the church building was becoming too bulky and like business building rather than a church.
He told how the trinity church developed through different degrees starting with the temples of Egypt. The present trinity church has three rections; the vestibule, the main church room and the sacrilege, all of which are shown in thecolumns of Egyptian Assyrian and Greek temples.
He advised the young architect to plan with his client's purpose and aim in view rather than for his own convenience or after his own special ideas as too many young architects have been exposed to an emotional onesis of his idea of service.
About ten women have completed the elementary swimming test, including floating three minutes, swimming the length of the pool using both back and side stroke and surface diving.
Mr. Brostrom has made church architecture his specialty for many years and is an authority in that subject.
Women's Swimming Test Delayed by Vaccinations
That only ten have completed the test is due to the large number who have been out on account of small-pox vaccinations.
No advance tests have been taken
