, and the First Congregational Church at Lyme, Conn.
Although the architectural fashion changed, the use of the earlier material persisted for a long time into the Victorian Gothic days, and the distinctively wooden architecture of the century before gave place to the style characterized by the boxed buttress and pin- nacle, and the furred and plastered vault. Very little attention was paid to the relation of the material to the design, an indigenous architectural style was abandoned, the noble
... Gothic was burlesqued, and a valuable local building material misused by those unthinking builders of the nineteenth century.
Having passed with more or less safety through the Era of Bad Taste, we are now observing a general revival of the use of White Pine for exterior trim in those architectural forms employed by the early American builders. The early churches of the Colonial days offer a prototype which is peculiarly suited to the non-liturgical services of many Protestant de- nominations. As compared with the more solemn Gothic, it has the advantage of being less expensive to build — it is much easier to produce a satisfying result with a small outlay — the problem of seeing and hearing is more easily solved, and, when well done, it blends more harmoniously with the average American landscape.
