MARYLAND FARM SHORES
WASHED AWAY BY RIVER
More Than 600 Feet of Stone Wall
Built Near Motley Hall to
Save Land.

Recent storms ON the river have, ac-
cording to reports, washed away the
Maryland bank of the Potomac river in
the vicinity of Motley Hall, opposite
Alexandria, and within the past six
months, it is stated, several feet of land
on the river shore of the farms of John
Swift and Barton Stuart have disappear
ed into the river. To protect his land
from further encroachment by the Po-
tonlac Mr.. Stuart has recently had u
stone breakwater built along the river
shore at his place. The stone was taken
to the Stuart farm Oh lighters from the
quarrteS above Georgetown and the new
wall is reported to be more than 600 feet
in length.
For years during every heavy north
wester portions of the high bank on the
District side of the river near the steel
plant have been undermined by the
waves and tumbled into the water Big
trees are said to have disappeared in this
way, and old rivermen recall that the
bank line has gone back thirty or forty
feet.
When the steel plant people purchased
their property they dumped a quantity
of cinders down the river bank and it is
stated that this has almost completely
prevented the bank washing away. 1t
is also stated that while the Maryland
side of the river is disappearing, the
shoals on the Virginia side have been
gradually filling up.

THE WINNERS

Most OF the big strong men you
know were Just plain boys in the
long ago; nine, | estimate. out OF
ten, were poor as any of you boys,
then. They had their joys and
they had their woes. they stole
their melons and stubbed their
toes; they had their faults, as |
must confess, but one OF them
never was laziness. Whatever
they did they did with zest
when playing their games they
beat the rest; and when they
found there was work at hand,
they bent and labored to beat the
band. And that is the secret of
men who rise; some are not gift
ed, some are not wise. and some
are hobbled and handicapped far
more than fellows who are
strapped. You have no chance?
Well. no more had they when set
ting forth on the worlds rough
way: they made their chances
and pushed along, nor stopped to
argue that things are wrong. And
now they're honored; their hand
some girls are getting ready to
marry earls, their homes are sta
toned in handsome grounds, they
have their yachts and they ride to
hounds. While you, the victim of
circumstance, are still insisting
