The Wonders Of America
BY T. T. MAxEY
OUR NATIONAL CAPITOL.

1T is but fitting that Americs-the
. greatest nation in all the world
should have the finest capitol building
on earth. The architectural beauty Of
our national capitol building at Wash.
ington is most impressive and, for capi-
tol purposes. II Is said to surpass
every other building in the world.
The base of this immense, sym.
metrically shaped and imposing edifice
rests on level plateau. at an eleya.
tion Of 81 feet above the historic Po-
tomac river. The building faces the
east and Is about one mile distant
from the White House. The corner
stone of the original structure, which
comprises the central portion Of the
present building and is of Virginia
sandstone. was laid by President Wash.
ington on September 1S, 1793-125
years ago. Later. when it became
necessary to enlarge the building, two
ad1itidns or wings. Of Massac achusetts
marble, were added. President Fill
more laid the corner stone; Daniel
Eebgter, was the orator. These wings
were burned by the British In 1914, but
were restored. The original building
was completed In 1927.
The present structure is 751 feet
long and $50 wide. II covers three
and one-half acres. The central por-
tion is surmounted BY one of the most
graceful. pleasingly shaped and mas
sive domes In the world. This dome 10
2S7 feet high. It was completed In
1885. 1t weighs more than 100000
pounds and is topped by a statue Of
Freedom almost 20 feet high.
The total value Of the building and
grounds is estimated at $25, 100000.

Recognition Of the high grade of
work done in Southeastern is being

training of teachers. More than that
it is now recognized that the youth
Of southeastern Oklahoma can select
no better institution in which to gain
that college training which is SO
necessary for preparation for study in
any Of the professions. Southeas.
terms work is accepted credit for
credit in all of the colleges and uni
versities affiliated with the North
Central Association Of Colleges and
Universities and with the American
Association Of Colleges and Universe
ties. No Alumnus has any hesitancy
in insisting that young men and wo-
men who are considering q college
course should enter Southeastern.

DISARM THE CROOK

The average modern crook is a
coward unless he has a pistol and
cocaine or some other dope to create
in him the false courage necessary
of the drug traffic and an absolute
to make him use his "gat." Control
prohibition of pistols are necessary
before crime can be restrained on
a big scale. Make it impossible for
crooks to get pistols and drugs, and
crime news will become dull. Capper's
