Another Series OF Articles By
DR.. ELihu S. Riley

The Evening Capital has en-
gagged DR.. Elihu S. Riley to write
another series Of articles upon
Annapolis. These will be group
ed under the general title of
Annapolis at the Advent of the
Naval Academy" and VIII cover
the period from 1876, when the
Academy was located here, 10 the
year 1861. when il was removed
temporarily, during the Civil
War, to Newport. R. l.
These items will lie personal.
anecaotal and historic. They Will
describe the times and condi-
tions OF the city when the Acad-
envy arrived here; the people. So
cicty, amusements. the treda the
politics OF the times. and its
methods of elections and cam
paigning, with individual charac-
teristics of our citizens and the
customs OF the city
The town of Annapolis at this
period had already become, in
spite of her ancient glories and
illustrious renown, the gibe Of the
jester and was the recipient OF the
sneers of the cynic. At once the
arrival of the Naval Academy
changed the tenor of its life. I'M

p-ovements sprang up, social and
marital relations were created by
the advant OF the school, and An
napolis INDICATED the choice of
the government for the location of
the Academy here. as among the
numerous official reasons that in
duced the country to make selec-
ton of Annapolis over ali other
rivals. was the superior society
of the community with which the
midshipmen Of the Navy would
come in contact during their
hours Of leisure and recreation.
The author viii. in the course
OF the articles, bring out in vivid
coloring the people and families
who composed this society and
describe in warmest words the
fine people. the interesting char
acters, and the living events of
the period which, though past,
still linger in the memories of a
few, and which buried the old
scoff forever. that Annapolis is "a
finished city"
The first of these articles will
appear next week, and will be
followed in order weekly until
concluded. The title of the initial
paper will be Annapolis at the
Advent of the Naval Academy"

POOR TYPE OF LEGISLATORS
Some Reasons Assigned for the As
sertion That Lawyers Do Not
Make Good Lawmakers.

Lawyers, as a class, should Of
course be represented in any legisla-
ture, but their enormous over-repre-
sentation In congress involves disas-
trous consequences. according 10
Great American Issues" by John
Hays Hammond and Jeremiah jerks.
Observation of lawmaklng bodies in
many countries leads TO the conclusion
that lawyers make a most. unsatisfac-
tory type Of legislators II is not that
they lack intelligence but that the
whole course of their professional
training and practice tends TO unfit
them TO play an important part in con-
structive enterprises of any kind.
Throughout his career a lawyer is &C.
cupied. not with the realities of things
but with the appearance they may be
made 10 bear in legal argument; not
with the consequences which flow
from an action, but with the legiti-
macy of its origin. He is always con-
cerned with the past as source OF
precedent rather than with the fu-
ture as a field for achievement. Pend
Ing legislation is often TO the lawyer
something which will later be dis
cussed and interpreted by lawyers, in
stead Of an instrument designed to eff
feet a definite practical aim. 1t Is
largely due TO the lawyers attitude to-
ward legislation and 10 the influence
II has exerted upon the form and tex
ture of enactments that so many laws
passed for the purpose of removing
abuses in our economic and industrial
system have, until recently resulted
In many lawsuits and little reform.

DENNY APPROVES OF
DANIELS ESTIMATES

Estimates for the Navy Department
to Congress last session by Secre-
tary OF the Navy Daniels, but criti-
cized and turned down as extravagant
by Republican leaders, were re-sub-
mitted yesterday by Secretary of the
Navy DENLY. -
He called for total approximating
SS1. 100000, of which S12.5o0,00o is for
the remainder of the current fiscal
year ending next June 80, and $751;
100000 is for fiscal year 1922.
OF the sum required for the current
fiscal year. s6,e00.0O0 is for fuel and
transportation and about S5.S00,000 is
TO be expended for maintenance under
the Bureau of Yards and Docks.
From next years funds, to be part
of the pending Naval bill, Secretary
DENLY requested authority to con-
struct airplane carriers.

UNITED FOR THE CIRCLE
SIDEWALK

Mr.. w. Meade Holidays let
ter in yesterdays Evening Capt.
tai endorsing the project of a new
concrete sidewalk around St.
Anne's Circle and giving assur-
ance that the Nestry of St. Anne's
Parish, of which he is a member,
welcomes the proffered com
munity support, makes the way
clear for effective cooperation in
raising the necessary funds. Es-
Inmates revised To date for doing
this work indicate approximately
$4,000, and OF this St. Anne's can
be counted on for at least one
fourth.
1t is, we think, in order to sug-
gest that the City Council pledge
a like proportion, for the Circle is
virtually a public institution and
in class by itself, SO far as side
walks are concerned. 1t would
not, therefore, be setting a prece-
dent for contributions from the
municipal treasury in the cases
of other sidewalks, for they would
afford no parallel to this case.
St. Anne's Circle may correctly
be called the traffic hub of the
city and there is no more con
spicuous section than it for form
ing a basis of Judgment as to
both municipal progressiveness.
and beauty. Just as West street
is the main artery of travel from
Baltimore and the North and
West TO Southern Maryland, so
this Circle looms up most promi-.
nently TO all passers by over this
route. Therefore, an attractive
appearance and durability. plus
the improved condition of West
stVeet that is now about TO be
realized, would be one of the best
advertisements that the city
could have; and by the same
token, one Of the best invest
ments. Moreover, the hundreds
OF pedestrians who use this Circle
every day. coming and going
from all parts of the city and on
all sorts of missions, would bear
constant witness to the prudence
of this investment, from the
standpoint of utility as well as
civic pride.
The new concrete pavement
would indeed be a Thing Of
beauty and JOY forever" and the
governing body OF the city will
doubtless be only too glad to-
take official recognition of the
proposed Improvement and, after
giving its endorsement of it,
share in the contributions that
will put it into effect.
1t is encouraging TO note that
that live organization, the Rotary
Club, has lost no time i'll getting
behind the proposition, having
unanimously endorsed it at last
nights meeting With backing
from all elements in the commu-
nifty this public Improvement will
soon be going "over the top"

United States arc watching with keen
interest the experiment pnt in effect.
at Princeton to have the under
graduates handle the situation with
regard to the morals Of the student
body. The ruling marks the begin
ming of an epoch in student govern
ment in American universities. The
professors of Old Nassau have de-
cided the time has come when the
undergraduate is better able TO handle
the question of his morals than the
discipline committee of the faculty it
self Accordingly they have placed in
the Senior Council the power TO rec
ommend the punishment of students
"for acts tending to injure the good
name or the moral tone of the uni
versity" without giving reasons or
evidence to the faculty.
Froctorial System Efficient
Princeton has an efficient iproctorial
system under the guidance of Henry
Bowie, known to Princetonians in song
and story as Hank the Cop" The
duty of the University Proctor has
dated from the days before the Amcri-
can Revolution when all the Prince
ton students lived in Nassau Hall, and,
as the old records show. INDUCED in
smuggling roast fowl and beer into
heir rooms through the medium OF the
negro slaves residing in 'tPrincetown.p
But with the introduction of the honor
system into university life in the
'nineties, much of the duty and import
ance of the Proctor was absorbed by
tho various Undergraduate bodies.

Itself. Almost all phases of under
graduate activity come under this sys-
TEN, from cheating in examinations to
the use of plants" in the seats OF
absentees in lecture rooms.
The Princeton Senior Council re
Gently came to the conclusion that at
infrequent intervals acts occur on the
campus that need punishment, and
which escape the notice of the Proctor,
but not of the undergraduates them
selves. The mental state OF an under
graduate is such that his conscience
does not allow him to report his fell
lows to anyone even remotely con-
nected with the faculty, bat he is will
ing to report such proceedings to the
Senior Council with the proviso that it
shall go no farther. 1t was to deal
with this situation that the new ruling
