CATHEDRAL OF ST. JOHN.
Looking at cathedrals is the fa
vorite in and outdoor sport of Amer
icans in Europe. In most ways we
can successfully compete with the
older nations in sights and sounds,
but in cathedrals and royalty Eu
rope is 7,000 leaps ahead.
Nothing in Europe is so .wonder

American plants himself before one
of there vast soaring poems in sculp
tured stone with its loose-work
spires, its delicate flying buttresses
and its general directory of stone
saints standing at attention all over
the great facade, he heaves a sigh
of despair nd savs. "Alas, we ran-
not do this in America. Skyscrapers
are our oest net."
Thousands of Americans have
gone to Europe merely to wander
over, under and through the dreat
cathedrals of a by-gone day; but
they cannot do it this vear. Manv
of the cathedrals are dishabille ow
ing to the war and most of the rest
are being used for hospitals. Besides
ocean traffic is too exciting this
year. But those who cannot live
through the winter without drawing
a few whiffs of inspiration from a
church big enough to stable a thun
derstorm need not despair. It will
surprise many of them to know that
the third largest cathedral in the
Arizona desert.
They have been working for near

This is a great novelty. Hundreds 1 when the workmen have knocked
of cathedrals are in process of fall

Some countries are too poor to build
them, and some have forgotten how.
In New York, however, the Episco
palians have decided to prove that
Americans can build churches as
large as railway stations if necessarv

the great stone columns which are
the largest hewn since the Egyptians
