Heights; Industrial Establishments = Towns
Showing Progress Center of Growth.

throughout this section. and in some
parts rather closely brought together,
| forming a settlement are seen the prac-
| teal workings of such a business con-
| centration.
! There is also in the same locality st.
! Elmo and Mount Ida, and on one side of
! the trolley track are g en- the walls Of a
large brick schoolhouse. reminding one
i OF the buildings Of this sort in the city.
The houses in Mount Ida gradually as
cend the slope OF the heights, where the
streets are marked by the graceful forms
of poplar trees. Beyond is the SUBJ
division known as Braddock Heights.
where the homes are on the hill, with
lawns about them, standing in the midst
of groups Of trees and looking cool and
attractive. especially in the fresh garb
OF spring.
Borders Of Alexandria.
Presently one reaches Rosemont, lying
SO closely on the borders of the town OF
Alexandria that the water supply of that
place is shared and is piped into the
houses of Rosemont. The union station
of the great steam highway to the south
is within a short distance, while adjoin-
ing on the west Is Alexandria's new
park. named in honor of him who is look
cd upon as the first citizen of that ancient
burg. 1t is known as George Washing
ton Park. The height now used as a
Suffers Hill. one of the localities con-
| nected with much of the stirring history
of the civil war.
In fact. there is history all about, dating
Dack to colonial days and continuing
along during the years when the Potomac
and the country bordering it's banks was
the scene or many striking events and the
nome OF many men and women whose
lives were blended with the progress OF
the country. At the same time the ma
terfal development of the region is not
that OF the past but Of the present. up
to-date and thoroughly modern, as wit
mont. with their graveled surfaces and
stone and brick cutters and concrete
walks. and the houses supplied with wa
ter and sewers and electric lights
Trolley the Center of Growth.
AS is the case with other sections Of
the suburbs OF the city, the trolley road
is the center of growth and the cause of
it, for II is the means of communication
with the city, rapid and cheap and of
course, such facilities are essential to
those who are obliged to come each day
| to Washington TO attend to business.
| The railway has passed through the
transition period. apparently, and now it's
service is adapted to the needs of the
| community through which it passes and
! In addition to earning each year the op-
| Grating expenses the company has also
/ earned Its fixed charges. which now
amount to per cent interest on near
! ~ two and half MILLIONS of bonds
and for the past four years an annual
| dividend of l per cent upon the capital
stock Of one and half millions.

Spring Garb Is Charming.
The city 1ooks SO we'll i'm its spring
garb that it has inspired the very natural
feeling on the part of good many citi-
zens to have it look still better. There
are details of our municipal housekeeping
which would probably go unnoticed were
it not for the general order and attract
.vepess of the streets. The fact that
here and there a householder is careless
about the grass plot in the front Of his
home, and does not appear to notice the
bare spots and the otherwise ragged ap-
peararce of what in the case Of his
neighbor is a smooth. velvety surface of
such a shade of green that il is a de-
light for the eye to rest upon. becomes
conspicuous because of the contrast.
Hence il is that at least. from two
sources-in fact. from two organizations
formed for the sole purpose of encourag-
ing greater care on tie part of house
holders of the front and rear spaces of
their homes-have come appeals address
ed to the general public urging more at
tention to the grass and the shruDDery
and the flowers about the houses. There
can be no question of the salutary in
fiuence of such a movement and of the
results in Improvement IN the ap-
pearance of the city as well as in the
cultivation of that civic spirit which can
have no better foundation than a feeling
of pride in the city where one lives. and
a sense of personal responsibility which
leads to personal effort.
Much Remains to Be Done.
1t is not so much that a great deal has
already been accomplished in that direc-
ton as there is still great deal to be
done and ample room for improvement.
One of the encouraging tendencies is the
change which has come about in COM
parat.vely recent years I'm the attitude OF
the owners of large houses-in other
words. the rich.
What they have been able 10 do in
what might be called landscape garden
ing effects within the limits of the strip
of parking in front of their homes is not
only remarkable, but a delight to the
eye. AS a rule the hardness and cold
ness of the stone walls is modified
by a fringe of shrubbery close up ~
the walls. and thus blending in with
the soft stretch of grass beyond.
The masses of rhododendrons, which are
a species of shrubbery that is just now
in vogue, are fringed with a strip OF
small plants bearing sort of aZalea
bloom OF a delicate shade of red-cerise
some one described the shade. AT any
rate, the bit of color amid the green il
very effective. and when il dies away
with the advance OF the season the back
ground of rhododendrons begins to CLEAN
with the bright-hued blooms of pink and

Vines of Towering Type.

Then there are the vines of various va
rieties. and more specially those of the
Towering type. The season for the bloom
ing of the wistaria is past. but the fine
display of this graceful flower as seen in
he city streets. and notably at the front OF
the residence OF Gen. Arson Mills, on Du-
cent circle, is recalled with pleasure.
Presently the rambler roses will be In
bloom, and then along the city streets

An important factor in this section is
the large freight yards OF the Southern

As the SCRAPS of information sound
above the rattle and buzz of the cars on
the Mount Vernon trolley line the WIS.,
itors to that shrine OF American patriot
ism are notified with the insistence of
the reinforced tones of the megephone
when the Washington Monument appears
in sight and are told all about Potomac
Park and the bridges that now span the
river IN the place of the Long bridge
of historic memory.
There are only two places in this itin-
erary when the Virginia shore is reached
and until Alexandria is reached that
appear to be worthy of mention by the
official guide. and one is the old house
still standing in the midst OF trees
along the banks of the Potomac which
the tourists are told is Abingdon, the
home of Nellie Custis, adopted daughter
of Gen. Washington. The other point
or interest is the range of hills standing

This is all very well for the casual

large number of people whose business
connections are all In Washington and
whose homes are in Virginia In other
words, this is another of the attractive
sections OF the suburbs of the city, as
Is quite evident to any one who looks
