is still far from being what it ought
to be. In Washington there is no
such thing as a general control at all.
Each department puts up its own
buildings in its own way, although,
thanks to the educational work Of the
Burnham Commission, the results are
not now as bad as they used to be.
Sooner or later we shall have full
grown Department of Fine Arts, but
it is not likely that it will come all
at once. The various departments
that have been added to the original
five did not start in that way. They
began modestly as bureaus under
subordinate Commits sioners. AS the
work of a bureau grew it was ex-
banded into department, and its
Commissioner promoted to a secre-
taryship, or several bureaus were
grouped together, and a new Secre-
tary put over them. If the artists
can secure the creation of a Bureau
of Fine Arts, either in or out of
department, they can feel that they
have made a good start. The main
thing in Washington is to plant
seed to get it thoroughly sprouted.
1t will grow of itself after that. When
Job is once created at the capital
it contains within itself the principles
of Immortality and of indefinite ex-
pansion. 1t becomes a permanent ex-
tractor of appropriations. The friends
of the fine arts need not worry at

THE OUTGROWN CABINET.

The Government of the United
States began its career in 1880 with
five executive departments-State,
Treasury, War, Post-Office, and JUS
tice. Nine years later the control of
the navy was taken out of the hands
of the Secretary of War and put I'M
der an independent department. Mat
tiers remained in this state for half
a century. In I84o, the creation of
the Department of the Interior added
seventh member to the Cabinet
The Department of Agriculture be-
gan business in 1880 and the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor in
1908 But there is no reason to sup
pose that with nine members the Cab
met has reached its limit. There are
nineteen members of the British Cab
met beside seven Ministers outside.
France has twelve Cabinet Ministers
and Italy eleven.
In this country four important in
terests are now demanding the crea-
ton of Federal departments for their
benefit. AS our manufacturing out
put is twice the value of all of the
products of Our farms, it is said that
we should have a Department of
Manufactures. The extraction from
the ground of over eighty minerals
worth enumerating, reaching a total
value of billion and quarters
of dollars, calls audibly for De.

NOVEL GOLF
PLAY SUGGESTED

A new and interesting form Of golf
tournament has been proposed by some
of the members of the Country Club
and may be taken up by the Greens
Committee in the near future. The
idea Is that TWO of the best players
shall choose sides, from the many
PLAYERS Of the club. and then shall fight
the match OUT. as in any other con-
test In this play the drawings will
be held as unde- ordinary circum-
stances. and If one man Of pair de-
feats his opponent by two up, il viii
mean that his side has that advantage.
Each player will have TO finish the fun
eighteen holes. The side whose players
have made the best records viii be
declared winner. and their opponents
win have 70 pay for the dinner, or for
whatever forfeit may be decided on
4 ladies' match win probably be held
:, tba near future and should prove
vsrx interesting. IN this contest the
Greens Committee viii select partner
