structed on the American plan, ;whai would you do with buildings of histori-: cal interest, such, say, os the house in which some poet, scientist, explorer, or: any other notable was bom? If in the umo block, would they have to be razed> with the rest?
Q.—IVhere a town .is to be recon : ' i :
house really i was of great': historical; interest. If so.'then It would be isolated' in a little park and maintained as' , a| national memorial. In pther words,.!the; property surrounding any: suc'h histof-i ical building, would-'beiVazed,. but pot; this particular one. My idea would. bel to plan a miniature, park:.around lihe;. house, which would be like an oasis in. which people could rest and, in'sumnier-! time, ^at their lunch. Actually, In hur/ northern industrial towils, there aretbut! few such houses tpat. [v^ould, call 'fori especial attention. * * ’!' ji
A.—It . would depend on whether 'the: ,'? '..j'' j
Q.—What would youi .dd. with such towns as Shrewsbury, Chester, Hereford, ' Stratford-on-Avon, cfc.?:‘ .
: - A.—In each of these (wim there; are!
blocks of property'of'lactuat, histoHc! interest and beauty, and onlyia vandal! would lay the: heavy jhand on .siich! property. In certain: places;; howeyer,;
’ these 'buildings* are like‘.pearls ini . an! oyster; they'
are.encomlpassed.by ugly: property which is of no yalue to anyone: other than the. owneisj-property billlt! acentuiy or sq ago .which'has Earned* its keep and is; only fit' for .the house-: breaker’s'.'hammer. , ‘Such ! propeftyj would have to come dowh. isolgtlhg'tlmt! of historic value and,'-where: possible,' even
by-passing.it in order that the jolt* and rumble of
modem.trafBc would not; affect tlie ancient foundations;, ' j -i
Q.—I regard the AmeHcan Systemlbfi numbering streets—as in the case * of;
■ East 15th Street, for ex^ p le^ s ugly.! IVhat system would you suggest: |to: make the streets of newly cohstrucfed| , tmvns easy to fipd, yet wouia not necEs-i
( wtate the use of 'nuinbeis' dS names ? i A.—lYork 'on an, alphabetical systepi,'
.proper alphabetical order, 'after famdus t men in history,
..like! Alexander,'Bruce,: Cicero, etc., etc.! There'.are 26 letters in the alphabet,.twhich, would-be :an;
junple number 'for'the;:town-to-be,!for you must remeniberi that!the days'iof
; little streets, crescents, Culideisacs,' etc., would be;over. :Rejnember,-too,, tljat! there would be large ■ceiitrally-'healjed!! apartment:houses,dr. flatoi'for workers which, might 'be -20 .storeys higli)' ea!ch!. almost ,a pelf•coiitatoed!'Uttle town ito: itself. Tlius you would! do, away with' ; the ugly .twisting streets !of : today -which i
: Some people may .'say it c'ari’t be done. My, reply,.to'.lhat is;:“Glve

He came ,to Boltori some 30 years,since, at the time when thq water sUpply was betag brought 'to the, village. He had lived for a long period,to a room in the Iprecincts'iof Boltori*Hall, and he Was. popular -with all'Who'came
