Objects to Concrete
In Lafayette Square
To the Editor of The Starr

To the Editor Of The star'
1t would seem that Lafayette
Square, one Of the beauty spots OF
Washington, is doomed to gradual
ruin from "the blight of the engineer.
Several years ago it was seriously pro-
posed to cut street through the mid
die, presumably on the theory that
the vista of plebeian Fords is more
suitable at the front door of the
White House than heroic bronzes.
Hardly had this wild idea been
squelched and forgotten before the
invasion of engineering Improve
ment" began anew. The pleasant and
restful gravel walks are being rapidly
replaced with endless yards OF the glar-
ing concrete that already disfigure the
base of Andrew Jackson's magnlhcent
effigy. To make matters worse, IN
stead of confining the width OF the
bare and inane concrete to reasonable
proportions, enormous walks about 10
feet wide are being put in, making the
appearance Of the square one OF DESC
Lutte barrenness, with the trees and
remaining grass struggling hard Tor
living in between.
Every artist, architect and lay lover
of the beautiful is by now familiar
with the endless variety of beautiful
tagging, slate of various hues, sub
dued paving tiles and other materials
available for walks where something
besides the mechanical. machine-made
sidewalk is desired. If these barren
wastes Of concrete had been reduced
to a reasonable width. say feet in
stead of IS, the difference saved would
have fully met the cost of beautiful
and artistic paving that would add
instead Of detract and helped to make
this focal point in the Capital City
even more beautiful. 1t is time the
citizens of Washington and environs
present measures to Congress that
will prevent artistic depredations un-
der the guise Of engineering Improve.

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.
Life Worth Living

Life Worth Living.
know a man Of whom, I guess,
I'd say his life was success.
He never paused for crying.
And when disappointment came
He proved all resolute and game,
And simply kept on trying.
Some days were dark and some were
bright.
He met them all with spirits light.
He had no time for signing.
Said he, Though hapless hours ar.
rive,
You still are hopeful and alive
So long as you keep trying"

Philadelphia's Mayoralty.

The fight now raging in Philadel'
phia for the Republican nomination
for mayor has far more back Of 1t
than the choice of a chief executive
for the City of Brotherly Love. The
control of William S. Ware. Senator
elect, is at stake. The election may
even affect the seating of Mr.. Ware
in the Senate, the choice of delegates
to the next Republican national con-
vention. and the denomination Of Sem
ator David A. Reed next year.
Eareism hangs in the balance. The
organization, headed by Mr.. Ware, has
its back to the wall. 1t expects to
win. It's ticket has the Endorsement
OF w. L. Mellon, nephew of Secretary
Mellon and chairman Of the Repub.
lican State committee. The Ware
ticket offers for mayor Harry A.
Mackey. who managed Mr.. Wares
campaign for tie senatorial nomina.
tion and election in 1926. the caf.>
paign in which huge sums Of money
were expended, as revealed by the
Reed slush fund committee. Oppo.
nents of Vareism have rallied to j.
Hampton Moore. former member Of
the House of Representatives and
former mayor. Mr.. Moore is the hope
of independent Republicans. He is
the battering ram with which they are
trying to smash the organization. The
odds against him appear tremendously
heavy. But Mr.. Moore has been elected
mayor of Philadelphia before this by
an aroused electorate.
Reports from Philadelphia indicate
that the registration for the Repub-
lican primary, which is to be held this
month, is very heavy. This outpour.
Ing of voters is interpreted by Mr..
Moore as an uprising, forerunner OF
q political upheaval. Mr.. Mackey, on
the other hand, says it merely shows
that the organization is working at
maximum efficiency and is getting all
the voters registered.
The city of Philadelphia gave Mr..
Ware huge majority in the senatorial
election, after the Reed committee had
conducted it's investigation of the SEN
atorial primary. In the senatorial
election it was Ware against Demo
crat, William B. Wilson. In the COM
ing primary it Is Vare's campaign
manager against Republican. run
ming independently of the organiza-
ton. The victory of Mr.. Mackey will
be hailed widely as an Endorsement
Of Mr.. Ware. His defeat, on the con-
trary, will be a heavy blow to Mr..
Wares hopes of being seated in the
United States Senate, and to the hold
of Mr.. Ware on the Philadelphia Re
publican organization.
In his campaign speeches, Mr.. Moore
is stressing not only a need for clean
ing house in Philadelphia, but also
the possible effect of the election of
Wares campaign manager on ma
tional Republican politics. Continued
Republican support in Philadelphia for
Ware will be construed outside Of the
State as an Endorsement by the Repub-
licans of Pennsylvania of the methods
which brought about Mr.. Vare's nom-
ination and election to the Senate.
This is a burden which the Repub-
lican party should not have to bear
In 1928, MIR. Moore insists.

ENCOURAGING GOOD
ENTERTAINMENT

The high quality of the light opera
presented here last week is a credit
to the local management of the thea
ter, and the splendid attendance JUS
tilted the judgment of the manager IN
booking it and also in making the
price one that could be acceptable by
many music lovers, not always in the
regular show patron class. We notice
that the Atlanta critics have only
praise for the quality of the talent
offered by Miss Valentine and regrets
that the attendance, at least on open
ing night, had been below that de-
served by such a meritorious offering.
Of course Atlanta people have large
selection of worthwhile entertainment
and the veteran showgoers have heard
the Bohemian Girl before. Fuzzy
Woodruff says however, that one must
know the arias and the words through
long familiarity to get the most en-
joyment from opera of any kind, and
this is another reason why Bohemian
Girl was appreciated by him.
