to embark a delegation brought him a great roll of paper The ambas sador seeing this parcel at once thought this was a present knowing Chinese methods but to his surprise they start ed to unroll the cylinder which extend ed to about fifty meters of paper over 102 feet Then he learned that it was the visiting card of the doyen In returning his modest little bristol board the humiliated ambassador add ed a few words which read The am bassador of France regrets inat he is able to offer only these simple words to your excellency The Building of Homes Dwelling houses may be constructed of anything from paper to concrete When built of paper they consist of ground plans front elevations and mortgages When they progress to something more substantial they do not resemble in any way the front ele
