TEXAS STATE ASSOCIATION OF ARCHITECTS

YEAR BOOK WACO 1917

THE “IDEA” OF THE YEAR BOOK

T. S. A. A.

In compiling the Year Book the Idea has been to get away from display advertising, to have more technical data and to make the Year Book of value as a reference work. It has been hard to do this and will take more than one issue to work it up to an ideal publication. From year to year, however such a result will be easier to attain and if the policy started this year is continued and improved, our yearly publication should be unique of its kind and increasingly valuable the profession. So, with humble apologies for its shortcomings and with the hope that the Idea can be perfected, the 1917 Year Book is offered to you for what it is worth.

Officers Texas State Association of Architects for the year 1917-18 will be according to
