A Victorian Library.
BY ELIZABETH STETSON.

This week we find ourselves in one
of the large red brick houses Of early
Washington, built a decade or so be-
fore the Civil War. There are many
of these houses scattered about the
city, especially in Georgetown, near
George Washington University and on
Capitol Hill.
They are dignified and spacious as
seen from the outside, not as beautiful
as the earlier Colonial homes nor pos
sessing their delicately carved wood.

These are the early Victorian houses.
Every one knows them. They have
been considered old-fashioned, have
been despised and left vacant for
many years, but now, in our great ap-
preciative revival of past styles, we
see how fine they really are. On the

ceilings, two fireplaces and tall win
dows which come almost to the floor,

performance. 1t is decidedly atavistic.
1t always puts emphasis on the gro

pots, pans, or any shimmering metallic
substance, reinforced with special drums.
The popuIarisation of this type OF mu-
sic and Tie attendant immodest dances
leads to, and. in fac4, has already led to,
a Lowering of The prestige Of the white
races. The noble trombone is made to
bray like an ass, gutfaw like q village
idiot, and mourn like a cow in distress;
the slIyer.toned trumpet, associated in
poetry with the serapbim. is made to
screech, produce sounds like drawing a

The bulk of Mr.. Fixit's mail for
the last two weeks has been street
complaints. Some persons have writ
ten twice about the same street or
alley, declaring that nothing has
been done to make them passable.
Street Commissioner George Wood
ward told Mr.. Fixit that lack of
funds and equipment is holding up
this important twork on unimproved
streets and alleys. City Engineer
Chester c. Oberleas said that the
paved streets and alleys are being
repaired as fast as they can be with
the money available. He declared
that the council only allowed him
$4,000 for paving materials in the
budget for this year, with the prom
Use that he would be allowed to use
the gasoline tax money for street
repair work.
Now the council majority faction
have expressed themselves as being
in favor of repairing College Ave.
bridge with this fund.
If they do, Oberleas told Mr. Fixit
that all street repair work will stop
about April 1 for lack of funds. He
declared that bond issue may be
authorized for the repair of the
bridge, but that a bond issue for the
repair Of streets is illegal.
Mr.. Fixit would advise that those
terested in the street repairs talk
70 councilmen about the question.
Dear Mr.. Fixit: Please see if you
can get our garbage collected for us.
We have a sanitary garbage can
with lid. Our garbage hasn't been
collected for three weeks.

Truly Nolen, superintendent of
collections, told Mr.. F'iXit that this
garbage will be collected today.
Dear Sir: The alley between S.
