I'M ;1 f Travelers Who Have Been to London's Westminster Abbey and to St. Paul's Cathedral have often spoken of their disappoint ment upon their first impressions. So, also, with St. Peter's, at Rome. It is extremely difficult to many of us to take the measurements of spaces and realize the immensity of proportions. It has taken all of eight years since the' completion of this warehouse, next to the City Hall, for even thoughtful people to comprehend its vastness nnd the well-ordered details of the construction of this massive structure. It is almost unbelievable that, if the fourteen floors and roof of this" great building w.ere of the width of Market street, and placed end to end, they would stretch from the Delaware river to Sixtieth street, if taken between curb lines; to Forty-eighth street, if the whole width between house lines is taken. If the aisles of each floor over which the public walk were linked together, they would reach from Broad Street Station to Overbrook; if all cross and intermediate aisles are taken, then to Paoli. It will be a surprise to affirm to the people that the electric wiring of this building, if joined in one line on telegraph poles,' would reach from Philadelphia to Harrisburg. There is much more to this building than people think. We are well ready for this Thanksgiving month ! Signed Nov.
