RESTORE THE WILLIAMSBURG
COURTHOUSE.

The United States is known TO many
people as the country without n his
tory Our Oldest buildings, our most
ancient historical places, indeed, even
our earliest traditions. are but as ar
fairs Of yesterday TO the people OF
Great Britain. and but Of an hour
ago 10 those of Egypt. So much the
greater is our duty to hold on to that
which we have.
Unfortunately a few days ago, the
ancient courthouse at williamsburg
was Quilted by fire. Around this build
ing cluster some OF the most hallowed
recotections of the colony and of the
Commonwealth. 1t was built in 1859.
and tradition has 1t that the model
was taken from an old design by Sir
Christopher Wren, who had then been
in his grave for many years. Under
It's roof met the general court OF the
Colony OF Virginia. and for many years
the United stntcs Court had its ses-
sions there.
Comparatively small in size, its
architecture was Of TINT modest ana
graceful design OF which too little
is seen in these days Those great
lawyers of whom Virginia produced so
many IN her earlier years spoke in
its halls, and to the lover of the past
their presence seemed TO cling about It.
some court building must now be
provided for the use Of the county
OF James City and for the city OF
Williamsburg. City and county to-
gether Will join in this work Sur
prising TO say, there Is sentiment
TO build new structure. presumably
Of bare and bald brick, born of the
ideals of an age whose tendency seems
10 be toward display without beauty.
There is no disposition here to med
die in tho affairs Of the officials OF
Williamsburg and Of James City coun
ty. They are fully competent to make
proper provisions for their court
building. But this is matter in
which all of Virginia is Interested
Our landmarks are too few. The walls
OF the old structure are intact. The

house for less money than that
for which they can build new
one. i, is to be hoped that

THE FUTURE OF THE HORSE.

The degree to which the horse is
being supplanted by motor propelled
vehicles can be estimated when 1t is
SAID that careful investigation shows
mat about 20 per cent OF the auto
MOBILES now operate are used for bust
ness purposes. The automobile is sin
empioyed extensively for pleasure, but
II is rapidly projecting itself into the
lield Of business activities.
IN View OF the enlargement OF the
automobile industry, the interesting
question Is: What will become Of the
horse?' 1t is safe to predict that our
ancient animal friend will not be sent
pack TO obsCurity. People who rilc
ana drive for real pleasure have not
diminished in numbers. Tie horse Is
