Take the case of popular music, for instance; it does not rank very high as music, but then it is popular. It does give pleasure. It does set the chords of many people vibrating.

Like a living language, it may some day be the noble instrument of noble thoughts and emotions. The 67 BUILDING A HOME only really dead art is the art which nobody cares for, or the art that is the affair of a few dilettanti.

As far as possible let him make it a business to study his build- ings, making comparisons between these buildings and the buildings of other men.
