Masonic Lodge Buys Home

At a regular communication OF
Memphremagog lodge, No. IS, F. and
A. M. Tuesday evening it voted to
accept the proposition and purchase
the home Of A. H. Grout on Second
street, for many years owned and oc-
cupied by the late Col. z. m. Mansur.
The matter of building or buying a
permanent home for the Masonic
bodies of the city has been long con-
sidered and committee composed of
George J. Eaton, E. j. Smith, l.. A.
Watson, R..P. Skinner, C. A. Davis,
A. j. Beebe and R. w. Spear were ap-
pointed months ago, and they have
given sites and locations careful con-
sideration.
The committee outlined to one of the
leading architects of the state their
desires for club room and social pur-
poses, and acting on his advice the
purchase was approved by the lodge,
the price being $4,000. The resi-
dence itself will require but minor
chances to answer the desires of the
lodge for club rooms, while the barn
will be dismantled and rebuilt for a
banquet hall and lodge room.
How soon the fraternity will occupy
their new quarters is problematical,
as they have a lease for four years to
their present rooms and Mr.. Circuit
has three years, to vacate, although
other arrangements may be made by
agreement.

inside and then hurry back to his post
at the front. In the meantime his

and competition arose and rates were

watched the performance. with much

D. c. Heads Not to Ask De.
fIciency Appropriation for
Suburban Highways.

The Commissioners will not ask
Congress at the extra session for any
deficiency appropriation to carry on
and July 1, when the new appropri-
alton of $250.o00 becomes available
Although the s250.oO0 appropriated
for the current fiscal year is running
low. officials of the engineer depart
ment will endeavor to make it last
until July 1 by making only urgent
repairs.
The current appropriation for re-
pairs to city streets will last the
fiscal year out. but will not permit
the complete resurfacing of any more
streets. The balance of this fund
Will ae used for minor repairs.
Col. kutz Gives Views.
Col. Charles w. Kutz. Engineer Com
missioner, said today that while more
money could be spent advantageously
on the streets and suburban roads
between now and July /, this fact in
itself is not sufficient reason for ap-
pealing to Congress for deficiency ap-
preparations.
The Commissioners, he pointed out,
are not justified in seeking deficien-
cles merely because there is room for
nc expenditure OF larger amounts
than Congress appropriates for the
current year.
Last spring the Commissioners were
successful in obtaining from Congress
TWO deficiency items for repairs to
suburban roads during the months of
April. May and June. He called at
tentlon to the fact. however, that the
winter of 1919-1920 was unusually
severe and left the suburban roads in
a deplorable condition last spring.
That situation, he said, gave the Com
mlssloners reason for asking a6-
ditional money.
I have been over the suburban
roads this spring." the colonel con-
tinued, land they are in reasonably

One big improvement-the resurfac-
ing of Bladensburg road-bas been
ordered for this spring and will be

Congress last year for this project

get a contractor to take the job last

COMMITTEE TO REPORT
Association by Unanimous Vote
Endorses Appointment Of Messrs.
Rudolph and Oyster.

Joining in the movement for better
street lighting in Washington. tne
Mid-City Citizens Association. at
meeting last night in the Thomson
School, authorized its streets and al
leys committee to consider the matter
and make recommendations at the
next meeting of the association.
A resolution declaring gas lighting
to be unsatisfactory for street pur-
poses, calling attention to the TACT
that poor lighting encouraged accl-
dents and crime. and designating l4th
street between Thomas Circle ana
Florida avenue, as thorouehtdre
needing particular study, was lntro-
duced, but members suggested tna'
the measure as proposed was lhaue-
Quate in view of the city-WIde I'M
portance of the problem.
President A. ]. Driscoll explained
that there are other streets and por-
tions of streets which are poorly
lighted. and vouchsafed the opinion
that the question of better street
lighting was broad and OF interest,"
to every citizen. DIR. ]. c. buchanan
is chairman of the committee Which
will investigate the whole question.
New Commissioners Endorsed.
The association went on record as
: unanimously approving the appoint.
ment of Commissioners Oyster and
Rudolph to the board of District
Commissioners. In this connection
President Driscoll criticised W. r.
: Westlake, president of the Fedora
ton of Citizens Associations, tor
going before the Senate committee
" hich was considering the nominal
tions made by President Harding
and "cautioning' that body to inves-
tigate the possibility of the nominees
having public utility affiliations. Mr.
Driscou said that while Mr.. Westlake
had told the Senate committee he did
not appear as president of the fedora
ton, the impression made by the asso-
citation of the president of the fedora
ltion with the federation itself was not
= easily removed from the minds OF
senator's, with the result that cit1-
zens' associations generally were TO
this extent made to look "rldlculous.
Favors Alternate Delegates.
The Mid-City Association also pass
ed a resolution favoring the appoint
4 1ment of alternate delegates to the
federation who would be authorized to
act in the absence of the regular
delegates. The resolution will be sent
to the federation and to the various
] ci tizens' associations.

The latest thing in hold-ups has
made Its appearance in Washington.
1t had its initial try out in a most
successful manner on the beautiful
grounds at the rear Of the White
House, right within the shadow Of
the chief executives private office.
It was practiced openly and boldly.
with hundreds of policemen and a
dozen or more secret service men near
at hand. and although there were
many victims. no arrests were made
and at a late hour the police had re-
ceived no complaints from any of
the victims.
Adults Under Handicap.
For the first time in four years egg
rolling was permitted on the White
House grounds and many thousands
of youngsters and grown-ups were on
hand. The children were given a free
hand; there was only one fixed rule
for the occasion, and that was that
only those grown-ups or halfgrown-
ups accompanying children would be
admitted. 1t was children's day. The
old, familiar rule of children will
be admitted only when accompan
by adults" was reversed.
This to some boys was an inspira-
tion. Whereupon an idea sprang into
