STATES EXHIBIT [
At SAN FRANCISCO
T. S. Winston, Of Board of
Visitors, Favors Replica
of Mount Vernon.
WENT TO HOMESTEAD.
He Believes States Exhibit at Expo
sition Will Appeal TO Visitors From
AL Nations.

Richmond, Va, May 22-"I regard
as peculiarly appropriate the project
ed reproduction Of Mount Vernon as
Virginiais exhibit at the Panama-Pa-
cifc Exposition said 7. S. Winston.
member of the board Of visitors ot
Mount Vernon, yesterday. "Such en-
exhibit, in my opinion, will be far
more distinctive than any industrial
or commercial display that could be
assembled and transported across the
continent with the limited appropria-
tion that the state has MADE for this
purpose"
With the other members of the
Mount Vernon board Of visitors Mr..
Winston visited Washngton's home on
Wednesday, and made an inspection
Of the homestead 1t was the first
official visit of the board since its ap-
po;nEment recently by Governor
Stuart.
"I was particularly impressed with
the stewardship of the women of the
Mount Vernon Association who admin
istcr this patriotic charge" said Mr..
Winston. "rhey have left nothing
undone to reproduce faithfully at
Mount Vernon the very atmosphere
which one feels must nave surrounded
il when it was the home of Wash
ington. They are continually adding
to the store of relics and are acqual-
ing articles Of furniture and wearing
apparel used by Washington as Fast
as they are offered for sa9e.
at is nothing less than an lnspI-
ration to step foot in the halls which
century ago echoed TO the footsteps
of the Father of His Country. Inc
furnishings are the same that Wash
ingtor knew. amt everywhere are per-
sonal relics intimately associated with
his long public life.
"Whi!c | do not believe that 1T Is
possible 10 create another Mount
Verron Or to transmit its halIowed at
mosphere to the other side Of the con-
tirent. do believe that the faithful
reproduction of the Washington home
stead-already known to every Amer
! lean through picture and Story-wil!
| be welcomed by the country at large
| as the most distinctive contribution
Virginia could have made to a ma
tioral exposition. To thousands OF
/ Americans who must live their lives
away from Virginia, a visit to the re-
plea of Mount Vernon at San Fran
cisco will bring the same thrill Of
reverence and patriotism that we our
selves feel when We behold the shrine
on the Potomac"
| Mr. Winston expressed his deep
gratitude to the patriotic women who
have watched over Mount Vernon ara
preserved it for the nation. The work
they have done, he said, could hardly
have been accomplished through dif-
| ferent administrator by either the
State of Virginia or the Federal gov
errment. There would have Jbeen
lacking. he thought, the immediate
personal interest which has bound the
/ Mount Vernon Association to its great
activity in a labor Of love.

But nine Gays of the campaign 1or

that over thirty thousand five hun

needed shall have been raised.
The Gazette has daily since the
campaign started printed articles, edl-
torally and descriptive, CT the concep-
ton ard progress of the commendable
work, and it woull be '-6ff!cult to add
ANYTHING original to what has hereto
fore been said in one way or another.
The fact. however, csn be stated that
over thirty thousand five hundred
dollars of the fifty Thousand dollars
have been subscribed-considerabIy
more than one-half the highwator
mark to which all are aiming.
1t is hoped that during the next
week or more rhe campaisn will be in
progress that all H-h9 hsve rot so
far taken a part in raising the neces-
sary aatount will come forward, ard
let the last week be the banner week
of the campaign.
There is no person in the community
who is not liable to need at some time
the care an attention of a modern
hospital, and there is hardly person
in the community who cannot in some
way add his or her mite toward the
great work.

Messrs. Colonel Herbert, John H.
Zimmerman and Gardner L. Boothe,

ing the executive committee OF the
Diocesan Missionary Society, the
Social Service Commission, and the
Sunday School Commission. IL was
agreed that one hundred dollars De
deyoted 10 the work of the Sunday
School Commission for the present
council year, This was referred to
the finance committee and will be
granted.
Mr. Robert Beverley moved that
the council recommend a church
naner more earnestly to the COM
municants of the church in Virginia
meaning thereby the Southern
Churchman. Dr.. Goodwin said he
hoped there would be a more gener-
Gus support to the Southern Church
man although it must be remem-
bered that the Southern Churchman
is q general and not diocesan paper
taking it's position with the New
York Churchman and the Living
Church.
It was ascertained that the Rev.
E. l. Goodwin, D. D., has been ap-
pointed editor of the Southern
Churchman and the hearty good
wishes Of the Council were accord
ed to him.
The council then took a recess un-
til half-past three o'clock.

The council resumed business at

lished by the last general convention
but no diocese need enter into its
proper province unless it desires to
do so. The pupose Of this system IS
to facilitate the growing legislation
of the church by these eight dlvis-
ions as it appears to general con-
vention, and therefore to believe the
great mass of legislation now over
burdening general convention. BIS
hep Gibson. however regards this
system as ignoring the great church
unit Of the diocese, and probably
leading to really eight churches
within the one general church. Judge
Norton then summarized the general
legislation on this subject and much
discussion followed, closed by the

posed by the Rev. E. L. Goodwin

Des Moines Capital: Whether Iowa
