HAVE NEIGHBORHOoD DISPLAY
Rhode Island Avenue Residents
Club Together for Fourth.

A novelty in the way Of Fourth Of July
celebrations was that which took place
last night in the uelghborhood Of Rhode
Island avenue and L street.
Instead Of each family having It's own
display, the whole neighborhood made up
a fund, chose one among their number
70 buy the fireworks, and held neigh
borhood celebration The street was
brilliantly lighted by the many colored
lights, and II was probably the most
pretentious private celebration in Wash
ington. About fifteen hundred people
witnessed the display.
In the afternoon, races were arranged
for the youngsters. The first race. for
boys. 100 feet. was won by Leslie Green.
Of Il Rhode Island avenue northwest. The
second. a race for girls. 80 feet was won
by Helen Farls. OF Sc L street northwest.
The third. a three-legged race for boys.
was won by Howard Baird. Of 65 L street
northwest. The fourth q bag race for
boys. was won by Charles Stewart, OF e45
r street northwest. and the fifth. a run
ming race, for children eight years Of age
and under, was won by Charles Daily. OF
60 T street northwest.
Mr. Charles Bryant. of i L street
northwest. had charge Of the celebration.

ahead, the city has risen TO a splendor
and magnifcence rivaled by but few Of
the worlds capitals; It has, in fact, rep
resented in miniature the progress Of the
nation at large. which from small begin
nings and in the face of stupendOus OBJ
stacles has carved out one OF the fairest
and mightiest empires on earth.
"As the Capital is worthy Of the ma
tion. so is this building worthy OF the
Capital. Il is thoroughly in keeping with
the highest artistic standards. and when
by the government has already been
authorized. have been occupied by appro-
pirate structures for the departments OF
State. Justice, and Commerce and Labor,
much will have been done In the direc-
ton of the architectural adornment Of
Washington, and an important step taken
toward the desirable end Of having the
government erect and own the buildings
it occupies The consummation OF such
a oroJect will result not only in further
beautifytng the city OF Washington, but
Will be distinctly In the line Of CONNER
cial economy
The anomalous form of the Districts
government has often been the subject Of
comment by the student and the his
torian. and yet IL has been generally rec
ognized that no city IN the country enjoys
a better record for clean and efficient ad-
ministration. Ii now has a home worthy
Of its history, and as Il takes up its
quarters here In this beautiful building
may IT'S conduct Of affairs under whatever
form its administration may assume equal
tho best traditions OF the past and the
just expectations OF the future."
