In a recent issue of The Carlisle

wants to gain some information, as
per follows:
lone of the heaviest rainfalls of
the season visited this section last
Saturday. All streams were out of
their banks and considerable dam
age was done along water courses.
Travel on the Maysville & Lexing-
ton pike between Millersburg and
Paris was blocked by the high wa
ter. Why can't the good county of
Bourbon haise the pike just beyond
Millersburg and prevent this?
"Mr. and Mrs. Paul Darnall and
baby and Mr.. and Mrs. Lane Mar
tin came in from Cincinnati. Satur-
day night. They expected to make
the trip from Paris to Carlisle in
an automobile, but when near Mil
lersburg, were compelled to abandon
it and board the train ON account
of the high water"

work Of Miss Henderson, an
English artist of renown, who work
ed the greater part of year in pro-
ducing these wonderful Transparent
cies. When asked how these win
dows were made Mr.. Dietz spoke of
his frequent interviews with Mr..
Tiffany, who said that such windows
as Mr.. Dietz desired could not be
made and stubbornly held to his
view. However, Mrs. Dietz persist
ed and Mr.. Tiffany finally sent for
Miss Henderson and commissioned
her to do the work, to describe
which would consume too much
space, yet it is story Of consuming
interest. There is no finer bit of
artistry anywhere in the west.
Simple, Yet Digni6ed.
The Root mausoleum, designed
upon lines of the Roman order Of
architecture, is impressively beauti-
full as a work of art. The design is
simple, yet dignifed and strong. The
main structure, of Barre granite, is
nearly square, while at either side
there is an extension whose cornices
are no higher than the architrave of
the front elevation, the dead walls
being felieved only by pilasters at

a series of conferences, during per-
haps a years time, we at last got
what we wanted.
Has Slight Slant.
"A striking feature of the design"
continued Mr.. Dietz, lis the slight
slant given to the exterior walls
whose dimensions at the frieze are
less than at the base. This forms
what the architects call trapezium,
a plane bounded by four right lines
of which no two are parallel. 1t
enhances the beauty of the archi-
tectural design"
The Dietz memorial is nearly
square at the base and is composed
of solid blocks of gray granite.
The slab which supports the step
roof is so large that it was diff
cult to find a railroad car to carry
it. The cavetto cornice of grace
full lines, though simple of design
and plain, adds dignity and strength.
The sculptured frieze is a replica
of the design of the lotus blossom
which was used so generally by the
Egyptians in their decorative art.
In front, above the portal, carved
in granite, is the proverbial winged
disc, guarded by the sacred asp.
This design is familiar to all read
ers of ancient history. 1t is
symbol of the immortality of the
soul, or the destroyer of evil and
death. The books say that the
round disc means Creator" because
it represents the sun which awakens
life in the scarab or sacred beetle.
The sparrow-hawk wings on
either side of the disc represent
God over all" because the hawk
was said to have descended from
the sun. The two asps are symbolic
of evil and death. The whole de-
sign, then, is a symbol for "The
Creator; God Over All; Destroyer
of Evil and Death" This design,
or notifications of it, is found in
the decorative work upon archi-
trave, wall or portal in ancient
temples and has ever been used by
modern architects to enhance the
artistic effects of their designs.

Take Broom Along to
Sweep Away Glass, Is
Advice to Motorists

Every motorist owes a duty to
himself and all other drivers to stop
his car and remove from the high
way all broken glass or other sub
stance dangerous to tires which he
notices in his travels.
The United States Tire company
recommends that small brush or
broom be made part of the equip
ment of each automobile and that
the automobile owners of the coun-
try pledge themselves to stop their
cars and sweep off from the high
way any glass or harmful sub
stance encountered. If each auto
mobilist would follow such policy
it would not be necessary for the
average man to remove glass more
than few times year.
When a cluster of broken bits Of
glass is allowed to remain on
highway until it has been entirely
swept off by tires or carried away
embedded in tires, probably hun
dreds of cars have their tires more
or less injured before the glass dis
appears. If it is removed by the
first man who sees it, hundreds of
other machines are free from danger
of tire trouble.

Impressively beautiful as is the
exterior design of this mausoleum,
the interior affords a new delight to
the visitor in quest of specimens of
real art. Reference is made to the
picture windows, composed of vari-
colored glass done in exquisite hues

is a replica of famous painting by
R. Talbot Kelly, the famous English
artist whose paintings of Egyptian
landscape and other subjects have
high place in the world of art. The
titles of the three subjects reproduc-
ed in the windows partially describe
them: prayer in the Desert" "A

Memorial art has become a sub
ject of widespread popular interest,
as one result of the great war. The
best citizenship in every state is
casting about for suitable designs
for memorials in honor of the heroic
deeds of fallen soldiers of the Amer
lean army.
The finest specimens of memorial
art in this vicinity may be found irf

not only in the mausoleums, but in

which are of rare artistic design.
These beautiful structures, erected
to commemorate the lives of some

future generations.
Viewed by THOUSANDS.
Anyone having a taste for the
beautiful in art, whenever and
wherever it may be found, would be
both surprised and delighted to see
the Dietz mausoleum which is one
of the most artistic creations in the
whole domain of memorial art. Last
summer thousands of people viewed
it. Those of cultivated artistic tastes
speak in extravagant terms of its
classic Egyptian lines, while the
ordinary observer carries away last
ing impressions of its structural de-
sign and ornate finish.
Mr.. Dietz was asked to tell some
thing about the making up of the
design-whether it was a literal
copy of some famous temple of an
cient Egypt, or composite design
drawn from the best features of
larger specimens of Egyptian archi-
lecture. His answer was bit sur
prising.

TO do with adopting a motif for the
design than anyone else. We have
travelled extensively in Egypt where
we saw the wonderful creations of
the ancients, and Mrs. Dietz formed

there. 1t is possible that descriptions

Greek Classic.
The Joslyn mausoleum is 4 Greek
classic, done in gray granite with
colonnade on either end. A unique
feature of the structure is that it
is composed largely of three huge
blocks of granite-one at either side
and one forming entablature and
step-roof. The four Doric columns
at either end support the overhang-
ing entablature and greatly enhance
the artistic effect of the design. The
decorations on the frieze are of the
conventional Greek design-triglyph
and metope. The cornice is plain, re-
lieved by molding along the upper
edge. Carved in relief on the archi-
trave of the door and a little way
down either door-post is a festoon
Of laurel, enclosing the word
"Joslyn."
The paneled front walls at either
side of the door are the faces Of the
large blocks of granite which form
the main structure, the doorway
and vestibule dividing them. Crypts
are cut into the inside faces of these
massive granite blocks. The upper
panels of the bronze doors are done
in fretwork of artistic design.
Standing little apart from the
mausoleum is the exedra, embody-
ing an idea handed down from
ancient days when the Greeks built
such marble or stone settees of
ornate design. At the extreme ends
paneled block is the base of mar
bic urn of old Greek pattern, greatly
enhancing the artistic effects pro-
duced by the main structure, which
embodies rare qualities of mortuary
