Withinthe last week or so startling headlines appear in ourpapers: Frightful disaster at Peterborough; fivebodies already recovered from the ruins; Garageblock falls while in construction; Fifty-three per-sons missing; terrible disaster when houses fell in;Two buildings in Montreal collapse; Churchcollapsed, two men injured. Dozens of similarnotices could be cited to show the loose manner inwhich our modern structures are being erected. Isthere not a need of some action upon the legislativeside which will prevent so much loss of life and gen-eral suffering? Protection must be given against theuntrained artist whose knowledge of building con-struction IS lamentable. It is due both the professionand the people. CONSTRUCTION 331.
