When Il Is Darkest.

By his own observations on thou
sands OF nights w. F. Dennlng, the
English scientist, has proved that We
are scientifically correct when we say
that it 10 always darkest just before
dawn" He has found that before
dawn great darkness invariably
seems to drop down like a mantle upon
the immediate surroundings. Objects
which were plainly observable during
the previous hours OF the night are
blotted out, and a nervous feeling is
sometimes induced by the dense opRc-
ity OF the air.

DOUBLE SERVICE
AUTOMOBILE TIRES
Guaranteed 1000 Miles Service
Absolutely Punctureproof


Double Service Tires are double the
thickness of the best standard make tires.
This 100 per cert greater wearing surface
naturally gives that much more mileage and
service. The average of IL miles of tough
fabric and one inch surface tread rubber
makes these tires absolutely pnncture-
proof.
These tires excel all Others for use in The
country owe, rough and rugged roads as well
as on hard pavements. They are as easy rid
ing and resilient as any other pneumatic tire
the air space and pressure being the same.
They are the most economical and ''care
free tires made and are used where tires
must be depended on and tire troubles cannot
be tolerated. Many Double Service style
tires are in use in the United States govern,
ment and European War service.
Our output is limited to certain amount,
but for a short time we offer the following re-
duced special prices as an introductory Offer:

A Hall of Archives.

Several important national organi-
cations, comprising IN their member
ship some of the leading workers in
historical and sociological lines in
this country, yesterday in a special
session called for the purpose adopted
resolutions urging upon Congress the
necessity of an immediate provision
for the erection in this city of hall
of archives. The need of such build
ing has been brought again and again
to the attention of the legislators. 1t
has been presented in the reports of
department and bureau chiefs. The
Star has for many years been in
sistent in its representation of the
danger to which the governments
records are constantly exposed
through the lack of secure structure
for their safe keeping. The fact that
no great fire has occurred in recent
years in any of the public Offices,
though some of them are notoriously
unsafe in this respect, seems to have
been accepted as Justification Of de-
lay, although there was ample demon
stration of peril in the patent Office
FIRE of about thirty-seven years ago.
which destroyed documents of great
value and many record models of in
ventions. Despite that warning the
patent Office is today place of con-
slant danger. and fire there would
be incalculably disastrous.
There are many tons of records
Evening star., 1915-12-29

that could easily be separated from
the main files of the departments and
stored in central hall of archives.
If they are worth keeping they are
worth safeguarding. They are not
safe in any of the Office buildings,
however stout those structures may
be in respect of fire resistance. for
the daily occupation of the rooms is
an undeniable source of peril to per-
ishable papers. The only secure
place for these records that must be
preserved and that are not of current
use is in building specially designed
for their housing, not used tor cleri-
cal work, with every known safe
guard against fire and water.
Such building should be centrally
located. 1t should be more than a
warehouse. 1t should be OF dignitled
and attractive design, as BELTS its i'm
portant use When the government
gets to the point of making this dan
gerously delayed provision for its
permanent files it should not do it
in a cheap and makeshift manner, to
save a few thousand dollars, but
should erect hall of archives that
will be commensurate with its i'm
pOrtance.
Evening star., 1915-12-29
The Sanitorium Protest.

An early decision is indicated at
the District building in the matter
OF the protest by residents of the
Chevy Chase region against the
sanitorium that has been established
there under license issued by the
District government. 1t is time the
case was settled. as far as the Com
missioners can settle it. Nearly nine
months have elapsed since the argu-
ments were made and meanwhile the
conditions of which the residents
complain have continued.
1t is primarily doubtful whether
upon the filing of an application for
the establishment of an institution
OF this character the case should be
treated In a routine manner, and the
permit issued without the most careful
examination, to ascertain whether the
enterprise will be injurious to prop
erty or menace to the peace and
safety of the dwellers. That such a
consideration was had in the begin
ming in this instance is questioned.
The fact that Immediately upon the
character of the institution becoming
known protest arose seems to dem
onstrate that if the Commits sioners
had asked for an expression of pub
lie opinion in the beginning the
project would have been promptly We
toed. Again, no precaution appears
to have been taken to make the in
stitution secure. 1t is not surrounded
by wall, such as an establishment of
this kind, for the treatment OF cases
of mental disorder, should always
have. Escapes have occurred, and
whether those who have been at large
were dangerous or harmless, the fact
that they were inmates or patients
of a private insane asylum fully JUS
tilted the fears of the neighbors. A
recent tragedy in Louisiana. in which
former inmate of this sanitorium
killed two persons in a fit of insan-
ity, has justifably served to increase
the apprehensions of the residents of
the country around the establishment.
The Commissioners should, in dis
posing finally of this case, consider
whether or not injustice was done to
the home-owners of the affected sec
ton in the initial licensing of the in
stitution. They should take into &C
count the evident fact that state of
alarm has been caused by the escapes
or paroles. They should regard as
primary the well-being and peace OF
mind of the dwellers who acquired
their properties before this establish
ment was located there. and the busi-
ness interests of the institution as
secondary.
