The annual meeting of the board of

early next month. and at that time it is
expected that some action will be taken
with a. view to inviting architects to sub

Memorial Industrial School. The board of

president. will shortly receive from the
Handley executors the entire estate, as
provided for in the will of Judge Hand
ley. and while it is not the intention to
squander the money. it is stated that no
expense will be spared to make the big
system of schools as modern and as fully
equipped as was outlined on an elaborate
scale by the late jurist. The schools
will be for the liberal education of all
young people in this vicinity. and par
ticularly for boys and girls who are not
able to pay for an education. There will
be no charge of any description whatever,
as Judge Handley, in his will, made ample
provision for the erection, equipment and
maintenance of the schools for all time.

WITH the new year come the first
w active preparations for the great
inaugural hall of 1913, and a
glance backward to the inaugural balls
Of the past affords a number Of interest
ing comparisons.
1t is hard to picture Washington at the
time the first inaugural ball was held
over a century ago in Longs Hotel, on
Capitol Hill. The National Capital was
then not much more than little muddy
village. Such thing as a paved street
was unknown. Trolley cars had never
been dreamed of. Instead Of the thou
sands Of automobiles which the city
boasts of today there were then a few
not in the least stately coaches and
four. Mules furnished most of the
locomotive power. Drivers and coach
men were black.
James Madison was the first President
to countenance the idea of a night social
celebration at Inauguration time. Need
less to remark, the tiny capital became
a-f1utter when he reached this important
decision. At any rate, the greatest prep
arations were made for this unusual
function. Letters were dispatched by
the first post to New York to summon
extra fiddlerS. 1t was then stage
cOacn journey, WHICH occupied
seven days each way.
*
Taverns and boarding houses were few,
and when guests began to arrive from
PARKWAY Baltimore and Philadelphia
the hostelries were taxed as they never
had been before. Dolly Madison was
the belle of the ball. Those who had
the good fortune to see her on that
occasion never forgot 1t.
She looked a queen one statesman
wrote 1T would be impossible for
any one to behave with more propriety
than she did. UnasSuming dignity,
sweetness and grace were all personified
in her. 1t seems to me that such man
nerS as she possessed would diSarm
envy itself, and cOnciliate even enemies"
The ball was opened gloriously as the
band struck up "Jeffersons March" in
honor Of the retiring President. Jefferson
was one Of the big figures at the gath
ering. He spent fully two hours mingling
among the guests with President Mad
ison. There was such a crowd and it was
so hot that window panes We're broken
by the gallants so that their ladies might
have air and some comfort in dancing
when the assemblage thinned out little
The party came to an end precisely at
midnight, because the next day was Sum-
day.
The scene Of the second inaugural ball
was at the Davis Hotel, on the site Of the
present Metropolitan Hotel, near 9Th
street and Pennsylvania avenue Presi-
dent Monroes brilliant ball was also held
there The event was not celebrated in
1921, but four years later there was
memorable reception I'm Assembly Hall,
located at 18th street and the Avenue.
On account of the mourning for his wife
there were no festivities at Andrew
Jackson's first Inauguration. When he
was reelected there was an elaborate
function in Masonic Hall, at Pennsylva-
mia avenue and Az street.
