the Architectural Department four
of his moat recent artistic under

the advertising firm of Franke
Schiwetx A Wilkerson Company,
located in the Cotton Exchange
Building in Heuston. He has done
extensive work in pencil, water col

has had a large part of his work
produced in leading architectural
magazines. Under its section en
titled “Masterdraftsmen", the per

illustrated article by Mr. Schiwetx
in a fall Issue in 1929.
• The December issue of the mag
azine, “Architecture” contained
Mr. Schiwetx’s drawing, “Church
