indeed the visitor Ia dazed with the
grandeur and loyeliness of a city that
the Americans mag well be proud to say
that we possess, this National Capital.
Among the many attractions in the
city are the Congressional Library with
its wealth of literature, art and sculp-

treasures Of sculpture and painting are
indescribable; the National Capitol and
lately dome whose beauty and SYM

A visit to Annapolis also afforded
much pleasure, and carries MS back in
imagination to the stirring tines Of
the old Colonial days. Many of the homes
are in the Colonial style. The old State

of many stirring events in the early
history OF our country. Tn? Naval

Mr.. j. Sharstall Grasty of Bal

costing the name Of DR.. H. d..
Campbell of Washington and Lee
University for State geologist:
"a state survey should be con-
Quoted for the benefit Of all the
people and rot for tie benefit Of

the best geologist available should
be elected State eolOglsG regard

geologist in Virginia then Dr..
Harry Campbell of Washington ~
Lee, but his duties are such that
am sure if the dictatorship were
offered him lie would not accept it,.
The man then for this position,
possessing botn the necessary
training, experience and executive
ability, is DR.. Watson Of the Uni
versity of Virginia. On this ac-
count | can't understand why
your par er does not advocate that
he be made director CT the State

has proved to be a fake. Uncle
Johr Kenny, their gold brick

seconded nearly three weeks ago

Some of these people who owned
small but comfortable homes sold
them and entrusted the receipts to
Uncle Johns keeping. Well, John
is doing this par; fairly well, as

in the matter is that he made love
