WASHINGTON
ENVY Of ALL CITIES
Col. Harts Describes Plans for Beau
tifcation of the National

Speaks Before Mems Club of the
Church Of the Ascension-Parks
to Encircle City.

With s16,00O,0oO worth of work now
authorized by Congress for the beauti-
f1cation of Washington, and plans
made for fifty years ahead, there is
no question. as time goes on, that the
National Capital will be the wonder,
admiration and envy of all other
Cities" according to Col. William w
Harts. L. S. A. in charge of public
buildings and grounds.
Col. Harts outlined the development
of Washington from its inception in an
illustrated address on The Beautifica-
tion of Our National Capital, Past,
Present and Future" before the Mems
Club of the Church of the Ascension,
18th street and Massachusetts avenue
northwest. last night.
The vast plans for the two great
series of parks which some day will
completely encircle the city pleased
Col. Hart's auditors. The speaker
showed the plans of the city as laid
out by LEnfant. and as augmented by
the fine arts commission in 1900 and
later. and gave an exhaustive survey
of many of the beautifying works now
going on in the Distrist.

base and series of steps. beyond which
will lie the pool. This work on the
base for the monument. he said, Will

In ten years Washington will have a

the work and plans for the recreation

the Highway bridge. There will be a

To Accept w. c. T. U. Books.

A slight disagreement was caused
over the proposal of the w. c. T. U. to
furnish pamphlets which could be used
for assisting teachers in their instruc-
ton of pupils in scientific temperance.
1t was finally decided to accept the
books.
A committee headed by Mr.. Galliher

it is of the opinion that no injustice has
been done any member of the class and
that no readjustment of the eligibility
of this class is necessary"
The board of education decided unon
recommendation of Ernest l.. Thurston,
superintendent of schools. to invite the
National Education Association to hold
it's convention next July in Washing

Shows Need Of Branches.

DR.. Bowerman called attention 10 the
increasing demands upon the schools
as social centers, and said that the Ii
brary provision should be made, as this
would be of assistance to adults as well
as children.
He spoke of the use of the library as
an institution not only to teach chill
dren still in the schools and to meet
the demands and needs Of the young.
but to carry persons to the very end
of life" He prophesied, incidentally.
during his address to the board. that
eventually free opera and free drama
will be furnished the people.
At the end of DR.. Bowerman's ad-
dress Rev. DR.. John van Schaick, presi-
dent of the board of education. as
sured the speaker that the matter
would be given the very careful atten-
ton of the board AS to whether it
will be possible to include rooms in
new school buildings. designated for
the use of the Public Library under ex
listing laws, is a matter which is to be
referred to the corporation counsel for
consideration. 1t was suggested that
this might be possible, in view Of tho
fact that the laws under which the IL
brary was established refer to 1t as a
part Of the public educational system.
The entire matter was referred to the
committee on Libraries.
Regulation of fraternities and so
rOrities in the high schools rather than
their determination will be the out
come of the investigation of the COM
mittee of the board which has been in
vestigating the question of abolishing
the organizations. This was suggested
by William T. Galliher. chairman Of
the committee. in a partial report made
to the board. The complete report will
be made at the next meeting, probably.

board. expressed the belief that the So
cieties serve useful purpose in the
social life of the schools" but suggest
ed that certain rules and regulations

To Make Test of Fraternities.

DIR. Van Schaick supplemented this
statement by saying: There are GER
tain evils which we recognize very
frankly in connection with fraternities
and sororities: We shall give them
period of time over which we may
make a test of them
A report going into the matter of
fraternities and sororities at great
length was made by the Home and
School Association Of Eastern High
School several months ago, at which
time recommendations were made to
cations should be abolished. The high
school principals and faculties are
nearly unanimous. it is said. in the be-
lief that the schools would be better off
without the societies. but no board of
education in the District of Columbia
has found sufficient grounds on which
to wage fight to abolish them
The District Commissioners are to be
asked to reconsider their decision re-
garding the placing Of assembly halls
in new school buildings. The board of
education had requested that in the
building of assembly halls the total
enrolment of the school proposed
should form the basis for the number
of seats in the auditorium The Com
missioners decided that the hall should
provide. a minimum of 90 per cent in
the hall proper. and 10 per cent of the
pupils should be accommodated on the
stage. 1t was pointed out yesterday
that this would not allow the entire
student body at one time to witness
no provision for parents and that it
would be. particularly inexpedient in
the event that an addition were made
to the building.

following an address by DR.. George F.
Bowerman, librarian Of the Public LII
brary who explained how the schoois
