memories on their old playground
very much as men and women look
back on the old schoolhouse in which
they passed some of the troubled
hours OF childhood, or perhaps they
will look back on the playground as
fondly as men look back on the old
swimming hole, the favorite fishing
place or the back lot, now covered
by skyscraper. where they played
ball in the long ago.
When the playground idea was
taking on form too great number
of persons looked on it as a fad. To
call thing a fad was to discredit
it, though the record of events seems
to show that there may be good fads
and bad fads, and if the playground
was a fad it was of the kind that has
proved to be good and useful. The
playground has demonstrated its use
fulness and its benefits, and the voice
of intelligent people, far from calling
for a return to the days of unregu-
lated street and alley play, calls for
an extension of the playground sys-
tenn.

General Rejoicing.

Everybody's happy down to Pohick-
on-the-Crick.
The yaller flowers are comm out in
gorgeousness so thick
1t looks as if the world had grown so
wealthy an SO gay
That it was turnin' loose its gold an
THROWN it away.
The maple leaves are blushjn' as
they're noddin' to the breeze
That whispers somethin' softly as 1t
passes through the trees,
An through the ripplin' brook the
sun its fashin' radiance filings
Till the water seems made up of moth
in but engagement rings.
The summer seemed to finger with
the blossomin' so fair,
A-waitin' fur some pleasant news to
rustic through the air,
An hopin' maybe it could coax the
birds to sing tune
Bout the flowers in October bein'
sweet as flowers in June.
The fields are full of beauty and en-
deavorin' far an wide
To look jes' like a big bouquet in
honor of bride.
The minutes as they pass us go
a-dancin' light an quick,
Cause we're feelin' mighty happy
down to Pohick-on-the-Crick.

The Naval Advisory Board.

The organization. or the election OF
officers, of the civilian naval advisory
board marks chapter in the scheme
OF national preparedness for defense.
The plan of mobilizing the inventive
genius of the nation, or gathering
into line many Americans OF proved
and distinguished scientific and in
ventive genius, is great stroke of
progress toward pulling the United
States out of its present position OF
military debility, and it is a stroke
that is receiving nationwide appro-
baton and applause. 1t places at the
immediate service of the government
the highest technical skill and expert
ence in branches of knowledge and
industry useful and necessary in the
scheme of making ready to defend
the national honor or the national
existence. 1t is forward step toward
the orderly and systematic mobiliza-
ton of national industries and re-
sources, which mobilization has been
proved in the present war TO De as
essential as the mobilization of arm
ed forces.
Cooperation between the civilian
naval advisory board and the naval
trained officers of the United States
must result in the adoption OF the
best means and machines for the
navigation OF the seas and the skies,
for the gathering OF information, for
the transmission of intelligence and
for all the services required in the
advanced art OF war. The co-opera-
ton of this board with the navy and
OF other civilian organizations with
the army will also prove a potent
factor in creating a public opinion
favorable to adequate national de-
fense-a public opinion which will
find expression in appropriate legis-
lation.

preferment that he found the proper
sphere for his industry and oratory.
Then he began career which has
led to eminence and prosperity. Quiet
and seclusion to such a quick soul so
long in action would be hades, in
deed
The country would lose. because,
while it has refused to elect Mr..
Bryan President, it has yet in way
profted by his agitation. He has
not only entertained it, but given it
something to think about. Even his
most radical propositions have start
ed discussions from which good has
issued. He has helped materially to
keep the pool stirred-a most i'm
portant service in popular govern
ment.
Agitation is sort OF art. Some
men possess it in high degree. They
know how to invest a subject with
startling interest. and make people
sit up and take notice. They can set
even commonplace before the public
so as to attract new attention to
them: and given something new and
to their taste they become little less
than magicians.
Mr.. Bryan stands in the front rank
OF agitators. and for twenty years al
most has done land Office business.
1t is strong testimonial to his
powers that for so long time and
under the frowns of fortune he should
have kept his place, and today still
possess so much interest for the pub
lie He seems not to have lost his
welcome as orator and entertainer
anywhere, or the personal respect
and friendship of those who differ
with him on public issues very
widely
He has entered, however, upon
new test Until now he has had Of
fee in view. Many of his followers
have regarded him as headed fox the
White House and laboring with that
definite object in view. But if he has
banished that polished white man
SION from his calculations, will his
hold on his followers remain strong,
and the crowds that gather to hear
him be as enthusiastic as formerly?
A political agitator without thought
OF official reward for himself is new
figure in our affairs.

The Congressional Card.

If the coming session OF Congress
is TO close before the meetings OF the
national conventions. or any time
next year prior to meeting-day tor
the second session. there must be
card OF business prepared by the ma
jority. Not all the business suggested
will be possible OF transaction. Some
matters will be an inheritance from
the Sixty-third Congress. Other mat
tiers have taken shape since that Con-
gress adjourned. Taken together.
they make a formidable array-too
formidable to be disposed OF in FIVE
or six months.
Two questions stand head and
shoulders above their brethren: u
revenue sufficient for the support of
the government. and (2) provision
sufficient for the defense OF the gov
eminent. They should have the right
OF way. To neglect either would be
an act of unfaithiulness to the peo-
pie To treat either in makeshift
fashion might prove very expensive
to the party in power.
Both questions are of a character
forbidding haste in the handling.
Both call for debate. and the debate
on the revenue question may take
political turn. The minority will ask
and be entitled to hearing on pro-
lection as national policy. The
hearing should be granted. Gag rule,
even in the House where it can be
and often is invoked, would be mis-
take.
The national defense is a horse of
another color. While there may be
some squabbling between the lead
ers of the two parties about respon-
sibility for the country's present state
of unpreparedness the main propo-
sition will relate to remedy. The
really important thing is to make
both the army and the navy fit for
any fighting emergency that may
arise in a world where fighting has
not gone, and does not threaten to
go. out of fashion. But devising
means will require time. Nobody
knows today what the President on
the advice of experts will recommend,
nor is it possible to forecast at this
time how Congress will receive his
recommendations. 1t may be an ODE
dent and it may be a contentious
body.
An early adjournment is merely the
desire of politicians who want Con-
gress off their hands in time to adj
dress themselves uninterruptedly
for a few weeks to national conven-
ton preliminaries. The republicans
are more eager than the democrats,
inasmuch as they will have the more
to do. The democrats, with their can
didate chosen. will have only their
platform to consider. The republi-
cans must consider both candidate
and platform: and the former propo-
sition is just now poser.

The Playground.

The play OF the children OF the
northwestern part of the city south
of Pennsylvania avenue, interrupted
by the selection OF their playground
the Gallinger playground at 10Th
and + streets-as the site of the new
building for the Department of the
Interior, has been resumed on vacant
land two squares to the south, the
use of which land has been granted
to the Playground Association.
The playground has become such
fixture in municipal life that it is
now hard to understand how a city
ever got along without such an insti-
tuition or how the city children pros
pered in their play before the play
ground idea came into being. The
playground fills prominent place in
the scheme of things and in the life
of the children. When the children
of today are men and women they
will look back with affectionate

Navy Yard Pay Tangle.

The wage increases recommended
by the wage adjustment board OF the
navy yard and approved by the Sec
rotary OF the Navy are not entirely
satisfactory to the workmen. Although
a substantial increase in pay was al
lowed in forty of the eighty ratings
in the wage schedule. slight increase
in two or three ratings and no in
crease in the remaining ratings. there
is dissatisfaction even with the larger
increases on the ground that they do
not level up the difference between
government wages and wages paid
III private ordnance and munition
plants. In the general matter of
wages the sentiment OF the public is
on the side OF the men, for although
the marked rise in wages at private
armament plants may be temporary
il is felt that the Washington ma
ohinists and workers in the allied
trades should have the benefit of the
upward fuctuation. as they have
sometimes had to suffer from the
downward DRIFT OF wages. In the dis
pute between the navy yard workmen
and the Navy Department are some
questions OF a technical nature re-
l4ting 10 the classification OF metal
trade workers which the public finds
il difficult TO follow, but the general
hope and expectation is that the dif-
hculties will be adjusted to the sat-
isfaction OF the workmen and the

When the Veterans Will Ride.

That the Grand Army veterans
should not march in the next and
succeeding encampments is senti-
ment that is developing to some ex-
tent within the Grand Army, but
principally outside of the ranks of
the old soldiers. The veterans are
for marching all the way and every
time. They want to follow the tat
tered flag and the drumbeat.
There will come time when the
members of the Grand Army, or a
very large part OF them, will not be
equal to the fatigue of marching to
the places assigned as rendezvous,
waiting for their turn to fall into col
umn and covering the distance called
for by the route of march. Some of the
veterans will want to march no mat
ter what their physical condition and
no matter what the weather. The
distress and lameness and haltingness
Of so many men may add to the
melancholy, but detract from the
martial grandeur of the spectacle.
The number of veterans who will
prefer to ride is increasing yearly.
and the time is not far away when
these veterans in carriages or auto
mobiles will be escorted on their an
nual march by younger troops, or
perhaps it may be that the old SOL
dicrs of the Union will take their
places in the grandstand or the
grandstands while those. who would
do them honor pass in review.
