ARRIVAL OF PACIFIC FLEET
 TOBE BIG EVENT IN COAST CITIES
Itinerary of the Great Sea Fighting Force, and Something as to the Personality of the Man
 Who Holds the Important Command

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. (by Asso- ciated Press) ).-Outside of war and peace, no event of recent years has received the attention which Pacific coast cities will give to the visit of the new Pacific fleet. .."
 Scheduled to arrive at San Diego early this morning, the fleet then is to proceed to Los Angeles harbor, San Francisco and Puget sound, and thence to Honolulu, where, during the presence of the fleet, the great Pearl Harbor drydock will be officially. opened.
 Everywhere the fleet is to stop am- bilious receptions are being planned to eclipse any similar event in Pacific coast history. At San Francisco Pres1- dent Wilson is expected to greet the fleet on his tour of the country in be- half of the League of Nations. Presi- dent Wilson, if nothing interferes with his itinerary, will review the fleet in San Francisco bay or just off the. Golden Gate. This, naval men say, will be the greatest naval pageant. ever witnessed in waters of the Pacific ocean.
 In every city the fleet is to visit committees to arrange for it's wei come have been named. Parades will be held in every city visited, it is said.
 In most places it is planned to make at least one day of the fleets stay a and towns thousands of persons are expected to make their way to the coast cities and aid in extending well come
 It is planned to otudo the memor- able receptions which attended the visit of the Atlantic fleet to the Pa cific coast in 1908, during it's famous trip around the world.
 At San Diego a great aerial display in connection with the fleet will be held. There many airplanes will fly out in welcome with navy airplanes. At San Francisco airplanes are expect ed to come from Mather field, at Sac ramento, to aid in the celebration.
 Commander of the Fleet
 When Admiral Hugh Rodman first came to the Pacific coast, years ago, as junior officer, soon after his grad uation from Annapolis, he acquired the sobriquet of Rough House" from men and officers of the navy.
 Returning now at the head of half the American navy, he brings a dec OratiOn from the king of England which in that country would cause him to be addressed as Sir Hugh" as a knight commander of the Order of St. Michael and St. George.
 Admiral Rodman, throughout his na- val career, has been noted as discip- linarian. He got things done," in, the words of the navy. Direct meth Ods of getting things done earned the title of Rough House." bestowed in affection by his men and brother of ficers when he was young. Years later the same qualities brought him distinc- tion from the British ruler when Rod man was commander of the Sixth bat tie squadron of the Grand fleet during the war with Germany.

Architecture and LIE Are One.

There is another result of good
tea ching of art history that Is impor'
TINT. A good teacher Of art history
cannot fail to impress upon his stu
dents how intimately the history OF ART
and the history OF the race are con-
uected; how every great change IN
style Is only a symptom Of some great
change In ways of thinking and living
The history Of architecture ought 10
teach that life and art are one ana
that falseness of ideal is mirrored In
evitably by a fake architecture. 1t
ought to go far toward removing that
destructive viewpoint Of the present
day TINT sees architecture as some
thing far off and esoteric and unimpor-
tant instead of the very stuff OF our
contemporary civilization. II ought, In
a, word, to ropen the draftsn,an's eyes
