CANADA —A large block of buildings has just been erected for the Salvation Army in Toronto, Canada, at a cost of £8.000. It comprises a large hall, and offices, shops, etc., to be used as headquarters. There is also a large basement extending over the entire area, which is to be used for printing and publishing purposes. The roof over the hall has a span of 96 ft., and is supported on walls 4 ft. thick. This is the widest span without intermediate columns of any roof to any public building in Canada. The work has been carried out under the direction of Mr. Herbert Paul, architect, of Toronto, from plans prepared by Mr. E. J. Sherwood, architect, of London.
