1t Is rather pathetic for a fading

body Is tired, and precision strokes the

unguarded court for a point to be won

The Toll OF Age.

The inevitable toll taken by the ad-
yancing years OF human life was never
better illustrated than yesterday. when
big Bill Tiiden bowed TO the youth
and stamina OF Rene Lacoste In the
semi finals OF the British lawn tennis
championship. Tilden for years has
ranked a. the greatest exponent Of
tennis skill that the world has ever
seen. In his heyday he was practically
unbeatable, and IL was the rare oecA-
sion indeed for an opposing player TO
take a set from him. Yesterday. how
ever, after winning the first set against
his brilliant French opponent, Big
Bill" began TO tire. and although he
succeeded In bagging the third set, La
coste had no difiiculty In running of
the last two for victory.
Tilden s not old "a men 90, but he Is
old as athletes are rated. The fierce
heat OF championship competition over
long period OF years has made him
at thirty-three an als0-ran instead OF
winner. Lacoste at twenty-five, with
game inferior TO Tiiden's In strategy
and execution, was able through hif

The Cid Spirit Returns.

1t is feared that the spirit OF inde-
pendence is growing stronger than
regulations for the safe and sane OBJ
servance of independence day. Yester-
day was probably the noisiest Fourth Of
July since the safe and sane regula-
tons went into effect twenty years ago.
Part Of the noise may be attributed to
the fact that the old regulations have
been amended. In addition to such
tnnocuous devices as the sparkler which
Tor time represented the legal maxi
MUM in the way Of fireworks, more
liberal attitude has permitted the return
OF the cap pistol, an instrument
which was banned not so long ago as
a relic Of more barbarous age. And
with the cap pistol now removed from
the ban Of outlawry. other outlaws have
come back siso--outlaws which are still
beyond the pale, but which manage
to sneak In and so unmolested such as
firecrackers. skyrockets, Roman candles,
torpedoes, bombs and other infiamma-
BILE, extremely dangerous. but highly
fascinating objects.
In all parts of Washington yesterday
there was noticeable trend away from
the safe and sane spirit Of the last few
years and . return to the old days
when, midst the bursting of bombs and
the flare OF rockets, there were arms.
legs. noses and other parts Of the
anatomy Of the city's youth flying
hither and yon: when the peal Of the
ambulance gong and the sight of
bandase-laden surgeons were as char
acteristic OF the day as were the
patriotic speeches and picnics Yester-
day, fortunately. there were very few
casualties. While the lid on the old
spirit OF independence day has been
pried loose, it has not yet been taken
of entirely.
But il yesterdays demonstration
means anything. 1t means that the old
Fourth of July is coming back, that
next year will be noisier and more
than this year and that the
year following will be still worse. There
Is no reason for trying to make the
Fourth of July day of Sabbath quiet
by throwing over 1t pail Of useless
police regulations. But unless the regu-
lstions that do exist are more strictly
enforced than they we're yesterday, one
may as well kiss the new safe and sane
Fourth q fond farewell and greet the
return of the old, unsafe and insane

hesive tape and o bottle OF iodine.

The great success OF the Boy Scout
and Girl Scout movements In this
country has had much to do with the
development Of these Summer camps
for children. The Scouts Of both sexes
have their own Summer outings. In the
course OF which they put into practice

I'VE lighted match to see how much
gasoline there was In the tank of the
automobile"
That is the explanation given by a
New York motorist for an explosion
which damaged fifteen cars In a garage
and injured two persons. The result
ing blaze was extinsuished With diff
Guilty by the Fire Department.
And yet people wonder why there
are SO many automobile accidents. Here
is a motorist who is so ignorant that
he did not know that gasoline explodes.
How then can he be expected to know
anything about the proper operation Of
an automobile? Until States insist
upon a rigid examination for operators
permits there will be the usual quota
Of dumb accidents which involve those
who are stupid and the same kind OF
accidents which involve entirely inno-
cent persons. Think 1t over.

Origin of Alexandria
Is Told i'm Records

To the Editor of The star
In looking over some old local records
renewed my acquaintance with an &C
count of the origin Of our neighbor town

In the year 1748, during the reign OF
King George III of England, the Gen.
entitled "An act for erecting Town at
Hunting Greek Warehouse, In the Coun
ty of Fairfax" and by the second sec
ton Of that act prescribed that the
said Town shall be called by the name
of Alexandria"
The act above mentioned directed
that within four months after Its pas
sage go acres of the lands OF Philip
Alexander, John Alexander and Hugh
West, on the south side Of the Potomac
River about the mouth of Hunting Greek
in the County of Fairfax, should be
surveyed and laid out by the surveyor
Of that county. and appointed Thomas

West and Philip Alexander, directors
and trustees "for designing, building

town upon the land aforesaid" The
trustees were directed to lay out the said

power and authority to sell the lots by

and, after deducting the expenses in

nainder according to their respective
rights thereto.
That procedure Is in principle, like
that adopted for acquiring the land on
which the City Of Washington was laid
out, and may have suggested the policy
adopted in the latter proceeding.
The town was enlarged by an act OF

Opinion In the United States Is
largely on the side of the rector Of the
University Of Louvain, who objected to
the proposed inscription on the restored
library, Destroyed by German Fury,
Restored by American Generosity. y

sympathy from the American press. de-
spite the fact that 1t was an American
architect who urged that this statement
of guilt should be retained. Rioting
