The snows of winter will soon wrap the beautiful White City in an unbroken silence. It has been for two years the home of all the arts, its forums thronged with the devotees of every science. Though change and the needs of the busy Garden City may scatter to the four winds these deserted altars where a world has worshiped the Great Architect, an imperishable record will remain!
While countless thousands, taking up again the threads of daily life, or journeying forth to the uttermost ends of the earth, may, in the heart, memory, and delighted mind's eye, preserve for years the visions of the fairyland of our century, were it not for the genius Of Literature all would in time be lost!
