WAR MEMORIALS Already in their various kinds, many of these are erected, or in progress, in this Country. Unsolicited applications for advice made to THE MEDICI SOCIETY touching some such projects, and, in other cases, unexpected expressions of regret that insufficient thought had been given to Memorials arranged, led it to consider the designing and execution of War Memorials. The Society does not keep a pattern-book or price list. It has the best Architectural and other professional advice, and its desire is to endeavour so to arrange that good design and honest work shall be adapted to the requirements of each case, due regard being had alike to the architectural or other considerations involved by the intended site, and the financial limitations attaching in each case. The Society has executed an Altarpiece and Roll of Honour (combined) " IN MEMORIAM those lost in the Battle of Jutland" for H.M.S. Warspite. It is printing the detailed "Memorials of those who fell in the War " for two of the great Public Schools. It has arranged for Memorial Windows and Shrines for Village Greens, and plain Rolls of Honour. Correspondence should be addressed to the Managing Director, THE MEDICI SOCIETY, LD., 7, Grafton Street, Bond Street, W.
