The City of Washington IS an object
of perennial interest to all patriotic
Americans. Not alone because it is the
great throbbing heart of the mightiest
and grandest Republic the earth has ever
known, but also on account Of its ma

pride in its beautiful avenues, majestic
architecture, stately homes, and well
stored galleries and museums as things OF
grandeur and beauty in themselves, apart
from the historic interest with which
they are invested. 1t is hope and as
piration of all "YOUNG AMERICA" at least,
to some tine or other visit the Capital Of
his country.
The Baltimore and OHIO r. r offers
unequalled facilities in aid Of this desire.
