of Washington.

An address on American Patriotism"
by James T. Dubois. of the State Depart
ment, constituted the feature OF the reg
ular monthly meeting of the Brookland
Citizens Association, held in Brool1land
town hall last highs The meeting was
well attended. and the routine program
soon disposed Of
Mr.. Dubois is editor of the laws in
the State Department. and was for
many years consul at st. Gall. Switzer-
land, and is well known in Washington as
having been editor of the old National
Republican He was enthusiastically
applauded when presented to the mem
Ders of the association by their presi-
dent. Arthur f. Kinnan
Mr.. Dubois said that only a small
percentage OF the citizens of the United
states are even acquainted. much less
familiar, with the national song, THE
Star-Spangled Banner" He lamented
this fact and said that in almost every
Foreign country the citizens. from peas
ant TO prince, know the national airs or
their respective countries. and whistle,
hum, or sing, them upon the slightest
provocation. He said he hoped, this
would be true OF America, because its
citizens are as patriotic as any in the
world, and this means Of expressing pa
triotism should become popular.
Jefferson and Martin.
The speaker paid high tribute to
Thomas Jefferson and, John Martin,
whom he declared to be two OF the very
best types OF Americanism. Mr.. Jeffer-
son was eulogized more particularly as
the author of the Declaration of hide
pendence. and John Martins fame, he
said, lay to great extent in the fact
that II was his vote which decided the
adoption of the instrument. Mr. Dubois
urged that steps be taken to perpetuate
the memory of these two patriots. by
the erection of suitable statues TO adorn
two of the public parks or squares III

Mr. Dubois strayed far enough away
from his subject at one time to tell lit
tie anecdotes and experiences culled
from his service in Switzerland. 1t added
Just that spice of variety which kept
his hearers interested and entertained
during his entire address.
Acting on the spur of the moment the
association Immediately upon Mr.. Du-
bois resuming his seat, adopted resoIu-
tons urging Congress to provide funds
for a Jefferson and a Martin statue. A
committee Of three was appointed &c
present the resolutions personally. and
10 urge their adoption.
