VISION OF THE CAPITAL.

Suffers tavern. Each day. In company
with Major L'Enfaut, they rode over
the country in order that every phase
of the topography might be studied
with relation to the great work they
had in their minds. How splendid II
Is to think that we had Washington
and a Jefferson at such moment!
With their great vision, their knowl.
edge OF the past, their hope for the
future, they looked out upon the wide
Potomac and the woods and fields and
saw the future capital rise like mi
rage before their eyes.
That hill, which was later to be
crowned by the dome Of the capitol
seemed to LEnfant to be like "a
pedestal waiting for a monument"
The gentle eminence from which the
wide plain sloped down to the Poto-

avenue" to be called Pennsylvania,

look out over the broad expanse of the
Potomac, with the far hillside rising
as though to wall out the scene from

1t was one of the splendid moments
in the life of the new republic. Un.
hampered by years of haphazard de

the world had never seen. 1t was tt

A Newspaper Game.

This is rather elaborate game, but
really very easy to play. One player,
who acts as editor, takes as many
sheets of paper as there are players
and writes at the head of each the title
of section of newspaper. Thus,
ON one he will write paris Core
spondence," on another American
Correspondence" on another Berlin
Correspondence" ON a fourth "Court
Review" on fifth "Our Fashion
Page" on a sixth Reviews" on a
seventh weather Report" and so on.
Each player then, for given time.
writes on the subject allotted to him,
more or less, in the manner of the daily
press, and at the end the result is read
aloud by the editor. The result Is
often very amusing.

MAKING OVER
THE. WHITE HOUSE
Architect Gave Attention to the
Smallest Details.

The White House, the work of the
architect James Hobsn, burned by the
British in 1892 and restored and com
pleted by Hoban about 1880, remained
with little change in its condition un-
til about 1865. From this period un-
til the administration Of Theodore
Roosevelt there were constant changes
in the interior, made on authority or
the Presidential resident, which de
stroyed the fitness and dignity Of this
beautiful building, says a writer in
The Architectural Record
Roosevelt soon after he became Pres
ident selected Charles Follen McKlm
to restore. instead of to enlarge. the
building. While McKim was maturing
his designs and the drawings were
being made the building as it existed
from the ground TO the roof was being
torn out. leaving only the walls, win
dows and upper floors.
As the work progressed Mckim gave
each detail his attention as IT went into
place He did not hesitate, although
the time was so limited. 10 alter or

appear Just as he had expected This
seeking the best results was well illus
trsted in finishing the private dining
room.
Ii was necessary 10 build struct-
u.e for the public Office separate from
the residence. McKim determined TO
place thii al the end Of the west ter
race. making II one story IN height.
no higher than the terrace, thus max
ilg II in every way subordinate TO
the main building. While he consid-
cred II a temporary building. il CON
timed all the Office rooms needed for
the conduct Of the Presidents busi-
ness. Mckim's hope was that an ade
quatc Office building, with stately
apartments for diplomatic and other
functions. might be built some time IN
the near future facing the Capital at
trc Executive Mansion end Of the
avenue. thus restoring the original
idea Of reciprocity Of sight between
the executive and legislative branches
Of the government.
McKim's refinement. good taste,
keen appreciation Of the beauty Of the
Old White House. together with his
long study Of Italian and Of the
Georgian adaptation OF Italian Renais-
sauce. made him the ideal man for
its restoration again into dignifed
residence for the President of dem
ocrstic nation.

Another very typical example Of the
independence" Of tho battle blinded
was shown recently by soldier whose
optic nerve was destroyed in Scptcm-
Der, 1914. by bullet which passed di-
rec,ly through his head from front 10

Ave children az blind trade learned
In six weeks, although he had the al
Tentative of being permanently cared
for in public institution.
The difference which the learning Of
a blind trade makes in the lives Of
these blind men is shown by the story
OF trumpeter named Poiricr. of the
10Th Regiment Of Chasseurs.
Poirier's regiment, during the battle
OF the Marine. was ordered TO advance.
Porier sounded the charge on his
trumpet Two bullets pierced his legs,
but he continued 10 sound the call I'M
ill third bullet struck him in the face
A minute later a fourth bullet de-
stroyed his sight. After lying four
days on the battlefield he was rescued.
His despair at his helplessness was so
great in the hospital that he attempted
suicide. More recently. however, he
was taught the blind trades of brush
making and chair making. and has be-
come contented and happy worker.
Copies OF letters from British, French
and Belgian battle-blinded soldiers
who are supporting themselves and
their families splenddly after having
been trained in blind trades by the
present blind war relief movement are
received with increasing frequency at
the 4. F. b. Blind Fund Headquarters.

A battlc-blinded British soldier has
apparently learned the trade of poultry
