Morning and Evening Solicitations in the
National Capital.

Morning and Evening Solicitations in the
National Capital.
Strangers to Washington often re-
mark upon the custom Of addressing
one at all times of the day by the uni
form salutation: Good morning" 1t
sound odd to a westcrner to hear one
address him with Good morning at
five o'clock in the afternoon
This custom. says the indianapolis
Journal, is as old as the congress of
tine United States and tie hours of ex-
monts. 1t is said to be directly due to
the morning hour in congress. The
standing rules of the two houses of
congress provide for morning hour
which extends from twelve to two
o'clock, and that provision has made it
common to refer to morning bust
ness" in congress. which occurs before
the regular order" Frequently the
regular order Is not resumed. and the
morning hour is extended until four or
five o'clock, especially in the latter
days Of congress and when there is a
great jam Of business. In the executive
departments reference is made to the
morning work" during the entire day.
This is all, of course. official parlance.
The custom has grown so that it ex-
tends throughout social life and in all
sorts of private business. until it is
morning until all government business
is at an end in Washington. When the
sun goes down and twilight sets in it
is Good evening 1t is never after
noon in the national capital.
