Pipes of Pageant Gods
Called Syrinx by Greeks

musical instruments and the Greeks
connected A very characteristic legend
with its origin. 1t is made by placing
hollow reeds Of varying lengths side by
side and then blowing in them, some
thing in the style OF a harmonica, or
mouth harp, is played Syrinx was
surI osed to be the name of q beautiful
nymph of which the wood god, Pan, be-
came very much enamored. He pur-
sued her one day and she fed toward a
river Seeing that she VAS about to be
overtaken she called on the river god
dess TO save her. and the goddess heard
anu changed her into a reed. Pan, not
u b. deprived of his prize, cut the reed
aud made from il the first syrinx, de-
terrrined that the nymph should not es-
care him entirely.

Furnishing of Costumes
Big Job for Managers

One of the great problems for the
pageant managers was the furnishing
OF 1900 costumes. For this purpose
fully 1000 square yards Of material has
been cut up. Most of the robes are
sleeveless and full in skirt. with a gold
border OF Grecian design stenciled just
above the hem. The material is soft,
both in texture and shade, and falls
gracefully about the limbs. There has
been no skimping of material, for the
Greeks lived long before the days of
the directoire or hobble skirt.
That period was also several centuries
before the days of heeled shoes, and
every girl and young woman in the play
is shod with standals. which requires a
great deal of leather. Not a single re-
hearsal has been conducted with the
players wearing shoes, as that is one
thing that Miss Baker has insisted
upon.
Il was no small task for some OF them
to get used to running and dancing
without the high heel of fashion, but
after much practice some of them dis
liked TO go back TO the modern shoe.

let even this is not so uncertain as

precision.
To Washington it was the beginning
Of a seven-day festival that is more
elaborate than anything of the kind the
city has ever seen. To most OF the cast
OF 100 men and women, and to the
management as a whole. it meant the
,nd of months of arduous work and
pRinstaking preparation. The old prob
erb, There is no excellence without
great labor" is never more apt than
when applied to such a performance as
this. where the critical eyes of thous-
snds are quick to note any amateur
tsh" inaccuracies on the part of any
!aggard actor.

The Fire ReSained'' opens with
shepherd guarding his flock, and pres
entity he falls asleep. Then appear wood
nymphs and dryads, who. in their dam
ring are the poetry of motion. They
are pursued by pans and satyrs, and
5nally take TO fight.
To the shepherd in his dreams come
three muses., bearing gifts, which they
oestow, with a kiss. From Euterpe he
receives the gift of harmony. Thus he

National Improvement.
One of the arguments advanced by
those who advocate the half-and-ha
plan or a large Federal contribution is
that it is necessary if Washington is to
be made a great, beautiful, and whole
some capital.
1t is contended that such expensive
projects as parks, broad streets, bridges,
and the elimination of alley slums can
not be provided out of current revenues
of the District without a substantial
contribution by the United States. OBJ
viously. if the contribution of the United
States were determined by the equiva-
lent of the local tax rate to be applied
to its land, its contribution would be
much less than one-half.. 1t would be
as 80 is to 2Jo.
Obviously the District govern
ment could not go into the estnb-
lishment OF expensive Improve
ments on as biE n scale IL tho con-
tribution of the United StatcS were
thus reduced. II In believed, how
ever, that IL the cOntribu-
ti0n from, the Federal Govern
ment were put on the basis as out
lined In the NTH proposal, the re-
suit would be that Congress itself.
by the use of Federal moneys
wholly, would cause to be effected
in Washington many more of the
essentially national improvements
than Ii would II One-half the cost
Of the improvement were to he paid
for from District revenues.
The Probable Effect.
For instance. Congress has authorized
the extension of Rock Creek Park
to take in the whole of Rock
Creek valley to Potomac Park, stipu-
lating that one-half OF the expense shall
be paid from District revenues.
This Improvement which will cost
several million dollars, will have to wait
until the District can pay its share un-
der the half-and-half system. 1t Is be-
lieved that IL the Governments respon-
The Washington times., 1914-04-08

siblity for the purely municipal ex-
penses OF the District were disposed OF
as has been suggested. Congress would
not hesitate TO make an appropriation
of United States money outright for the
park extension.
So long as a great project of this char.
aCter. which is essentially a national
improvement. is hooked UP definitely
with the Federal Governments part in
routine municipal govcrnmCnt affairs. il
will be delayed and will be subject OF
controversy. with citizens OF the Dis
triCt on the one side declaring that they
ought not to be taxed for 1t. and with
members of Congress on the other de-
clarinG that the people Of the District
are receiving a great benefit at hall
price.
1t is believed therefore, that the big
undertakings based upon national de-
sires would come much more rapidly
and would be handled as wholly ma
tional affairs. instead Of half national
