Excerpt from The Architect and Engineer, Vol. 91: October, 1927

So, when a building as wholly lovely as the Pasadena Library fills me with that peculiar enjoyment which craves communi cation, and I can neither write sonnets nor pin them to the building nor find telegrams strain ing to fly at the drop of the coin, I resort to the one relief the modern situation seems to afford and write an article for an architectural maga zine.
