" HE eye is the great educator.
It Is so wonderful in its
work that from time i'm
memorial men have ascribed
mystical powers to the eye.
1t not only gathers knowledge
for its possesSor, but 1t dispenses
knowledge from him to others.
You can generally read in a
mans eye what he is, and what
he is thinking. 1t il the window
of his soul, and he is 30 well
aware Of 1t that II he il trying
TO conceal anything he first Of
all endeavors to draw a curtain
over his eyes.
It is an anatomical. and not
simply a poetical. statement that
the eye issa window to the brain.
A nerve called the optic" nerve,
from a Greek word meaning
sight, starts directly out of the
brain behind the eye. passes
through a hole in the skull, and
spreads over the back of the
eye in the form of a SCI cen, called
the "retina," from the Latin
word rete, "a net" The ball Of
the eye is composed of trans
parent lenses. which focus the
hight on the reti1aa, just as lenses
of glass might do.
So the outer world IL pictured
on the screen that the brain
spreads at the back Of the eye
and the brain sees It, and inter-
prets II to the intelligence.
This arrangement is SO simple
and yet so marvellous in the per.
lection Of its details that it is no
wonder that strange beliefs have
grown up about the eye. Neither
by words nor by actions can
man make his meaning so instan.
taneously clear and effective as
by a glance of his eye. An up
lifted fist is not so terrible as a
threatening eye.
Eyes Power to Cow.
There is, perhaps, truth in the
old belief that courageous man
can cow wild beast by fixing
unflinching eyes upon 1t. The
next time you meet an ugly dog
stand still and, look him steadily
in the eye. The chances are very
great that in a few moments he
will drop his own eyes, put his
tail between his legs and skulk
away. A two-legged dog will do
the same thing.
The language of the eye is
wonderful. 1t can say anything
with incomparably greater force
than the tongue. 1t is the brain s
most direct line of action upon
the outer world.
The whole man speaks through
the eve. The entire force Of his
personality is behind it, The
central fire OF his nature flashes
through 1t. ~
People in general do not SUI.

instrument of expression and a
dynamic weapon dynamic power).

TWO new BRIDGES
SPAN ROCK CREEK
One in Park Suitable for Autos.
Other Connects Two Bride
Paths.

Two steel truss bridges have been
built across Rock creek and will be
ready for use in the early spring
One. a regular vehicular bridge, is in
upper Rock Creek Park, about mile
north Of the. ford near the Miller
cabin. 1t is about thirty feet wide
and connects the new roadway, open
Ing into the park opposite the 18th
street entrance to the Walter Reed
General Hospital, with Beach drive
wav on the west side of the creek.
The other bridge is of the pony
truss type. about twelve feet vide,
and crosses the stream just south of
the Pennsylvania avenue bridge,
diasonally from the foot of L street.
to a point on the west side. just
above where the Chesapeake ana
Ohio canal enters Rock creek.
1t is designed for equestrians and
pedestrians only, and forms the con-
ne citing link between the bride path
along the river front In Potomac
PARK with the bride. path along
side Rock creek to the District line.
The construction of these two
bridges was made possible by the
use Of surplus bridge mate rial pur-
chased for possible use In the world

depot at Fort Humphreys. Both
projects were approved by Maj. Gen.
Beach. chief of engineers, who has
charge of all federal engineering

TRADE BOARD AIDS
c. v. i. FUND DRIVE
Value of Higher Educational
Institution to City Is Set
Forth in Statement.

The Washington Board of Trade,
departing from its established Gus
tom of Withholding Endorsement of
money-raising campaigns, has adopt
cd resolutions unanimously approv-
ing the coming building and endow-
ment fund drive of George Washing
ton University.
The board points out that George
Washington acts in the capacity of
a state university for the city of
Washington, and that 1t offers schol-
arships to students in the local pub
lie schools that enable them to OBJ
tain college education without
leaving their homes.
Other Cities Are Cited.
THE need of "a local university"
the resolution reads. in part, has
been recognized in most of the larger
cities of the United States. Rochester.
Buffalo, Cincinnati and others ap
proximating Washington In popula-
tion have their local universities
Washington. the Capital City, should
not be wanting in this respect. These
institutions carry on day instruction
for students who can give their whole
time and university extension work
In the evening.
THE need is greater here. for the
governments employes-young men and
women from all over the country-are
particularly favorably situated for con-
tinuing their studies in such an inStitu-
ton
Referring to the lack of funds to
conduct the university'S work, the
resolution states:
Need $1,OOO,OOO Endowment.
The George Washington Univer-
sity's property consists chiefly of
real estate and equipment used in its
educational work. 1t has very mod
crate productive endowments. 1t Is
too dependent upon its tuitfons from
students for its income. In spite OF
these financial disadvantages 1t is
carrying on successful business en-
terprise. having a balance on the
right side of the ledger every year
for many successive years: 1t has in
creased its property from year to
year out of it's annual surplus.
1T has now reached the limit of its
capacity for giving education, with
out having reached the limit of the
demand, because of it's insufficient
buildings and equipment and because
the absence of productive endow-
ment prevents the employment of a
completely adequate teaching staff.
The authorities of the university be-
lieve that with a million dollar en-
dowment they can very greatly in
crease the number of students, the
quality of instruction and the
branches in which instruction is
given"
