SEEN ON THE SIDE
BY HENRY EDWARD WARNER
Tho Buttic.


Within mo something stirs
That IS not !. II comes
With blowing OF tho bugles.
with beating OF the drums
II comes 20 give me battle.
Comes stealthily. ut night
Comes every waking moment
To challenge me TO nght.
My sentr!cs stand on guard.
Ny outposts give alarm,
My men cry boots and saddles
To save my soul from harm.
In battle lines they range them.
with clash OF steel thcy meet! 81.
Swift are the blows We give them
And certain their defeat
But -. nearer still thcy come.
These enemies of Nc!
Nearer. and nercer ngh,ing.
Roasting Of victory!
Not now, but soon or later
Not now thny break my wall.
nut hoastins, back they come again
To 500 my ramrarts fall
And what Is I. Myself.
Can fool their slow advanced
Defeated yet returning
Watching Tho raiders chance,
And ever I must battle
Lost. II sleep. they come
Blowing tho vic,ors husle,
ReatinG the victor's drum

7 INCLUSION in tho contract specifications
for the State Office building OF clause
wv which tho building Commission would
reserve tho right to withhold from public
view" such matters bids, estimates and
figures has been discussed in these col
umns. It is still being discussed by the
people OF Virginia This clause was de-
clarcd in these columns to be "mystifying."
II remains so, particularly since expla-
nation has been made or attempted by the
building Commission the owner" So
called, of this public project. Tho word
Nowner'' naturally is not placed within
quotation marks TO imply any objection
TO It's use. but the people may begin 10
wonder after n while if il is not being taken
literally instead of a mere legal for
mality.
Apart from that. another source OF mys-
tilcation--not just now developed, but
quite ae pertinent ever. II not more per-
tincnt-may be pointed out. 1t will be re-
called by those who have followed the
course Of this projcct-so far ms 1t has
been possible for an out sder. n mere tax
payer. to follow it--that the Building Com
mission refused TO make its competition
in the matter of designs conform TO tho
requirements of the American Institute of
Architects. The reason for this refusal has
not been given to the public. hut the effect
OF il has not been so easily concealed. In
part for example, the effect was to exclude
from the competition great body Of Viz
gnia architects. The position of these ar
chtects, the reasonableness of their re-
quest as we'll as the unexplained bluntness
with which the Building Commission met
their suggestion, will appear-and may
fairly be judgcd--from the text OF the cor
rcspondencc The following letter was ad-
dressed to the commission by a group of
hos re
Gentlemen:
