A NEW WHITE HOUSE

fee Building and Esolnnade.
When the doors of the rejuvenated
White House are thrown open to the
public, they will disclose practically a
new interior in the historic home Of
the nations chief executives.
Some adverse comment has been
made concerning the new building
erected south of the executive man

lection being made that neither in its
outlines nor general effect is it in keep

whose exterior aspect remains IN

The experts say this comment Is i'll
advised, for when the grounds are re-
arranged and everything connected
with the building operations is removed
the entire effect of the new and the old
buildings will be most attractive and
harmonious.

There is no better antidote for de-

likely to find the roads or the streets
better than they were. the railroad
service. the postal service, possibly
even the telegraph and the telephone
service better. You will observe better
houses. more attractive grounds The
people are better clad or more are we'll
clad. Inside their houses yon viii find
more books or, better, more bathrooms,
better lights and better furnitare A
larger proportion of children and youth
are receiving good training at better
schools. All this means more than
prosperous years. 1t means a higher
level Of life and q stronger ambition

The precious blood at BrugeS enjoys
the widest fame and is reported to
have been collected from the Sayiour'S
wounds by Joseph Of Arim&tAea anG
Nicodemus when tEry took down the
body from the cross. 1t WAS brought
to Bruges by Thicrry of Alsaec in 1l-s1.
He had received it from his brother in
law. Baldwin, king of Jerusalem.
Nearly six centuries ago the eXtraor-
dinary devotion paid to this relic at
Eruges by the inhabitants and visitors
had induced the ecclesiastical and ciyi:
authorities to institute a solemn pro-
cessiOn in which it should be borne IN
the streets.
A confraternity of the precious blood,
consisting of thirty members, with
provost and four chaplains, was estah-
lished to guard it at all times.
The procession takes place annually.
and the blood, contained in crystal
cylinder and inclosed in it's shrine, is
