Make Use Or inc Buildings.

The Il. s. Government is the
owner OF one Of the finest buildings
and most beautiful locations in the
State, and AL at present and for
sometime past living idle and unim-
proved Recently Congress has APP
propriated $4,000 to erect new
buildings for officers quarters, for
Naval officers and professors attached
to the Naval Academy. 1t is con-
templated to erect these within the
somewhat restricted limits of the
Naval Academy grounds now orna-
mental and adding TO the extent of
the beautiful promenade park which
contributes so much to the health
and beauty of the Naval Academy
These grounds have also practical
usefulness for drill purposes and on
that account should not be further
encroached upon. 1t is important for
the future usefulness of the Academy
to preserve the present limits of this
area intact. Adjoining the magniti-
cent building on the government
farm, now vacant, beautiful ridge
stretches across toward Severn River
bridge which affords most charming
sites for residence, without exception
the finest around Annapolis. A row
of officers cottages on this ridge
would afford the most desirable resi-
Dental advantages that could be
found here. Why not use this beau
tiful ridge and the vacant govern
ment building and preserve the limit
ed area of the Academy grounds for
the students and drill purposes I?
Home labor could be employed in
fitting up the government building
for immediate uses and the appropria-
ton of $4,000 would be more than
adequate for this purpose.
