IS ADOPTED BY BOARD
Congressman From This District Has
Worked Assiduously for Years in
Interest of Thoroughfare.

"Carlin Avenue" is the official
title of the highway from Washington
to Alexandria, via Hume Springs,
Del Ray and Poor House lane, and
within a few days signs bearing the
new name of the magnificent boule-
ward will be placed along the route.
The board of supervisors of Alex
andria county have thus honored the
Hon. Charles C. Carlin, of this city,
through whose efforts the roads was
largely built.
The action of the board of super
visors was taken at it's last regular
meeting but announcement was held
until the road was officially complet-
ed and turned over by the contrac-
tors. The following is the resolu-
tions of the supervisors:
"Resolved by the board OF super
visors of Alexandria county, Va,
That the roadway extending from
the New Highway bridge on the Po-
tomac River southerly to the city
of Alexandria, by way Of part of
Mount Vernon avenue, Hume Spring
and Lloyds lane, and constructed with
the joint fund Of the United States
government and the county of Alex
andria, be named and designated as
Carlin avenue in recognition of the
valuable services of Congressman c.
c. Carlin, and as an expression Of
our high regard for him.
"The supervisor of Jefferson mag
isterial district is hereby directed to
have erected signs at all crossings
along the route Of said highway with
the words "Carlin Avenue" thereon"
The work of securing the new bou.
lcvard between Washington and Mt.
Vernon has been one of the princi-
nal aims of, Mr.. Carlin's career since
he entered Congress eight years ago.
He first secured the appropriation
for Congress to build the military
highway from the south end of the
highway bridge to Arlington. Then
he was prime ifactors in. securing
the appropriation for experimental
road work in "a number of states.
The next step was to secure the ap-
preparation for Virginia to- be spent
on, the Mt. Vernon road and his last
effort was to bring. about co-opera-
tion between the agricultural depart
ment which disburses the good road
funds and the ssupervisorsso Of ALEX
anaria and. Fairfax county, so: that
the road could be built with both
federal and county aid.
The new route abonds in histori-
call associations. Leaving Washington
it passes within stone-throw of the
Washington monument. After pass
ing the bureau of engraving and
printing, the Potomac River is cross
ed via the Highway bridge.
After taking the right fork at the
end of the bridge the road skirts the
Department of Agriculture expert
mental farm, which is part of the
old Lee estate. The Arlington wire
less towers, which can send mes
sage across the Atlantic and part
of the Pacific, and the Arlington Ma
tional Cemetery are in plain view.
Five miles from the starting point
on the left of the road as it starts

AN EXPENSIVE INSTITUTION
But Cost Of Christmas Pays Big Re-

Children.

Christmas is q very costly institu.
ton. 1t makes deep holes in millions

reaches into his pocket more often
In the few weeks before Christmas
than during any other period of equal
extent in the whole year. And lots of
money goes for presents that, in the
hands of happy children, last a very
short time. Nightfall of Christmas
day sees many toys in mangled heaps
that bright and shining and new greet
ed the little folks as they hoped out
OF bed Christmas morning. And mil
lions and millions of things are bought
that never would be, If it we're not for
Christmas. But does all this mean that
Christmas is not worth the money it
costs. that IL would be better IL the
world did not observe the anniversary
of Christ's birth in the way it does?
Nobody in the whole wide Christian
part of the world will say that Christ
mas does not pay for itself. that 1t is
not worth all 1t costs, and that 1t is
not a bargain at any price. Where can
be found a father and mother who
feel that they have been cheated by
Christmas, after they hear the CUR
