LET D0RMIT0RY CONTRACT
Home for Fifty Girls to Cost
$4,000 to Be Erected

Abandoning the earlier plan Of .
central building to house both the
boarding and the administrative de.
partments. the committee in charge OF
the construction OF the new Youn.
womens Association building. has
adopted as more preferable an ar
rausemenI which viii seperate the two

The conclusion o. the campaign foE
funds, il Was announced by the com
mittee that the new central building
, would be we'll under way by the enc
! OF 1912. Legal Iechnicalities have
arisen TO bar the immediate acquire
ment OF the site, but these. II Is stat
ed, are only temporary. The erection
OF the central building. It Is expected
will follow shortly after the compile
ton OF the Cary Street dormitory.
In examining the estimates for the
construction and maintenance OF
central building to house all depart
men,s as was originally planned. the
committe found that they would fal
exceed the money available, and that II
! would be more economical to erec'
| two buildings, each to work independ'
entity of the other. The board OF
managers eoncurred with the building
committee in recommending the Latter
plan, and 1t was adopted
To BE First Of System.
According to this scheme. the struc'
ture TO 60 up on Cary Street will be
the nrst OF a group OF similar oulio.

FIRE ON THE TITANIC.

The terrible disaster to the steam
ship Titanic, by which over sixteen
hundred persons persisted, has brought
to light the fact that icebergs were
not the only mcnaces to her on her
maiden voyage.
At the investigation in London
Fireman Barrett testified that he was
in the stokchold when the Titanic
struck the iceberg. Water immcdl-
ately poured in through No. 6 water
tight compartment and the adjoining
empty coal bunker. This bunker,
Barrett explained, had been emptied
IN the Sunday previous to the disas-
vcr, as fire had broken out in it soon
after the Titanic left Southampton.
This fire, it was found, had damaged
the bulkhead. Barrett said it was
not an uncommon thing for fire to
break out in the coal bunkcrs.

THE MISSISSIPPI FLOODS

Half the cost of the Panama Canal
would have dredgcd the whole length
of the Mississippi, and a quarter Of
less, of Professor Johnson's estimate
of the cost Of maintenance would
have kept the canal drcdgcd, and the
resulting benefit to the United States
would have been decidedly greater
anything that is likely to come to us
as a result of cutting the continent in
two and allowing the Atlantic and p;
cifc oceans to mingle. But the canal
idea appealed powerfully to the imagi-
nation and digging mud out of the bed
of the Mississippi, so that it should
not be higher than the surrounding
country, only appealed to common
sense. SO, we are making the Pana'
ma Canal, chiefly for the maritime
nations, and the Mississippi is annu'
ally overlooking, and this season Il
worse than usual.

Carried only breast high by the four

AS it passed seat after seat the

crasies, giggled half Historically. while
others, shocked by the mockery Of

NlETHoDIsTs VS.. CATHOLICS
Communicated

In the name Of the 100000 Cath
olics Of this country and the 100000
900 in the world we thank our Meth.
odist brethren for their kindly inter-
est in our souls, and are confident that
during the process Of opening ones
eyes, some Of the scales of prejudice
will fall from their own. Secular his
tory will show them that the church
of Rome was great, glorious and pow
erful, seventeen centuries before WeS-
ley was born, that the Bible was pre-
served for them by the much mali
cured Monks, who spent life time
translating one book. All of our SER
vices are taken verbatim from the
Bible. 1t is read in our churches not
only on Sundays, but every day in the
year. Bible history is taught our
youngest children, our priests study
it, not only four years but fifteen, be-
fore they are ordained. In regard to
idols it is true we have pictures and
statues of our saints and martyrs,
who shed their blood for their faith
Others erect monuments, ETC., to
great men and heroes. They will also
observe that at one great ecum!Il-
cal Councils at which thousand bish-
ops are present there is too much &c
clesiastical business of our own to at
tend to, without meddling in our nei-
ghbor's religion. We wish the mis-
sionaries good luck.
We must congratulate our friends
upon their nerve. They are up ag-
ainst church which not only has
stone foundation (Mat.xvi,1S) but has
an unbroken record of nearly nine
teen centuries behind her. 1t proves
that they can not only shout but fight
when necessary.
1t will be a great fight, the little
dog trying to get the bone from the
big dog"

THE DRINKING FOUNTAIN

The unwilling of the drinking foun-
tain at the intersection of Cameron
and Royal streets this afternoon by
Mount Vernon Chapter, Daughters Of
the American Revolution, is the sec
ond monument erected by this honor
ed organization in Alexandria recent
ly. A short time ago, it will be re-
mcmbcrcd, they unveiled a tablet in
Christ Church to the memory of the
honor pallbearers at the funeral of
George Washington. Since the Orga-
nization of the chapter the members
have interested themselves in the pre-
srvation of historic Alexandria, and
many of their works in our midst will
be monuments to their memory.
The fountain which was today turn
ed over to the public will prove a
great desideratum. Its location in
front of the Market House and City
Hall is proper and the present as well
as generations to come will apprcci-
ate it.
We earnestly hope, however, this
good work will go on. That several
squares of Washington street will in
the near future be paved with vitrl-
fled brick is admitted by all. When
this work shall have been accomplish
ed, fountain at or near the int
section of that thoroughfare with
King street. would prove Of graf
utility to AlcXandrians as we'll as to
our floating population.

FL Sermonett:
(Enterprise)

II is by virtue of enthusiasm
that the man of enterprise, who
S so ready to adopt new measures
plans, and projects. is enabled to
carry into bis business or profes
sion an energy and inspiration
which is totally lacking on the
part of those who are followers.
Hence the latter oftImes fail of
success which their talents might
almost be said to have promised
them. Therefore those who en-
ter the list to win LIES battles
must expect if they would reach
their goal, to wage the fight, not
Onlj by the Did methods. but by
the new. To use only those tao
tics which are sanctioned by US
age is to invite defeat. Throw
open the windows o. your mind to
new IDEAS, and keep at least
abreast of the times, and. if pos
slble. ahead of them. Nothing is
more fatal to self advancement
than a stupid conservatism or a
servlle imitation. The days wnen
a man could make progress with
ont enterprise. and without tax
ing his brain have gone by -.
Mere industry and economy are
not enOu IN; there must be intel
hgence and original thought.
