KANSAS BUILDING

Of all the State buildings facing on Commonwealth Avenue, none is more home-like or more popular than that of Kansas. Everybody is made welcome at the Kansas Building. It is in every sense an Exposition home. Opening from its great central reception hall are rest rooms for the ladies and smoking and reading rooms for the gentlemen, post-office and check room and the spacious offices of the Commission. In the south part of the building is the emergency hospital, in charge of a graduate physician, and also the day nursery where Kansas mothers may leave their little ones. The reception hall is surrounded, at the line of the second floor, by a gallery, the walls of which are covered with paintings by Kansas artists. The building and furnishings cost $40,000. In almost every exhibit palace where the resources of the states are set forth Kansas holds a prominent place. Especially is this true of tire display in the Palace of Agriculture. The mining exhibit includes coal, lead, crude oil, rock salt, brick and gypsum.
