BY the Associated Press.
CATAWISSA, Pa. August 14.-Mrs.
Warren G. Harding has presented a
check for 500 to Glover, a fifty-one-
year horse. This became known
with the publication Of letter from
the Presidents wife to the animal s
owner, Rev. DR.. Myers. in which she
expressed herself deeply moved by
"the sense of justice and gratitude
and faithfulness which impels you to
sacrifice your comfort rather than kill
a splendid horse which has given you
q long life of willing service"
1T seems a strange ingratitude."
the letter continues. that demands
such a sacrifice because your fail
ure to attain wealth has not made a
cruel and inconsioerate master of you.
For examples sake. 1 hope Clover
will long continue to be the oldest
horse in the world. and that somehow
there will grow an impression that
the loving God never intended either
dumb friend or self-sacrifcins men
to be consigned to Mother Earth
merely because the most and best of
their strength has been exhausted in
human service" - .

Tho new cellrooms of the Police
Court building, which have been un-

When the building was recon-

New concrete floors have been laid.

The new arrangement Is convenient

Since the old cellrooms have been

CAPITAL BEAUTY ?

Highways Plan for
Next Winter.
MAY ACQUIRE NEW LAND
Transfer of Historic Broad Branch
Road to United States
Considered.
MAY ACQUIRE NEW LAND

To preserve the natural beauty Of
environs Of the District of Columbia,
especially in the vicinity of Rock
Creek Park, Congress will be asked
next winter to pass necessary legis-
iation and provide the money re-
quired.
Aside from the interest in this mat
ter being manifested by individuals
and citizens associations. II is
known that the Office of the super
fntendent of public buildings and
grounds has some definite ideas re-
garding the future treatment of
these so-called beauty spots"
1t was learned today that the su-
perfntendent Of public buildings and
grounds will include plans in his an
nual report and make special ef-
fort TO impress Congress with the
Immediate necessity for making nee
essary improvements in the park
system.
Preservation Of Beauty.
First of all, preservation of the
present beauty of Broad Branch road.
which connects Rock Creek Park at
a short distance above Pierce mill
with Chevy Chase. will be urged.
This historic thoroughfare is looked
upon by many as one of the most nat
ural and beautiful highways in or
about the city. 1t traverses roll
ing country, and is lined throughout
with beautiful shade trees.
To prevent what is feared Will be
the destruction of the natural beauty
of that section traversed by this
highway, because of the proposed
cutting through of streets and the
erection of residences, those interest
ed in preserving the beauty of the
section will put considerable force
behind their efforts to have enacted
bill authorizing the purchase by
the government OF 100 feet of ground
on either side of the roadway for a
distance of probably mile and half
from the point where it connects with
Rock Creek Park.
Transfer Of Jurisdietion.
The bill also would transfer the
jurisdiction of Broad Branch road
from the District of Columbia to the
United States.
1t is explained that by acquiring
the strips planned on either side of
the roadway the natural beauty of
on its sides would be preserved for
all time.
Inasmuch as the government now
owns only very small strip of the
land required. it is estimated that the
appropriations needed may be a trifie
larger than Congress would care to
spend at this time.
The public buildings and grounds
Office will resume its effort next win
ter to obtain the appropriation-neces
sary for the purchase of land to carry
out its development of the so-caIled
