Latin vs. English
 Inscriptions on the building were to have been in Latin. Secretary Wilson couldn't reconcile the fact that an American Government building should bear inscriptions in a dead language, and ordered them carved in English.
 A feature of special interest on the facade of the administration building will be the entablature, the long panel resting upon the capitals of the columns. On this will be engraved three inscriptions selected by ex-Secretary Jardine as appropriate to the nature of the purpose for which the building exists.
 The first is by St. Paul:

BOX Al RINGS
Two Needless Alarms From Heart of Business Section
 Alarm Citizens

Citizens became alarmed and the members of the Putnam fire depart ment were put into no pleasant frame of mind when Box 4 in the heart of the eity's business section was pulled in for nothing but fires under the hoods of motor trucks.
 The first alarm was rung between two and three o'clock Wednesday morning. When the firemen left their beds and responded to the Al call, that always brings them on the jump, they registered disgust to find the alarm for a fire under the hood of a truck parked near the Bradley beef house, Front street.
 Shortly after nine o'clock the same morning the box was rung again. This time it was an ice truck of H. Ray Hurlhut, parked on Pomfret street. that started to blaze. All three trucks responded and for time traf- fic was blocked. Little damage was done in either case and the services of the fire department were not needed.

 Dance and Swim
 The Pine Grove authorities have found it worthwhile to run four dane es week, so well do the local sol diers patrcnize the resort. Swimming has been excellent and popular with many of the men going to Pine Grove or Crescent Beach. Later in the week there will be a minstrel show for an evenings diversion. The band of the ifsth Medical Regiment comes over for concert near Major Darbie g tent occasionally, and attracts a large crowd.
 Last Sundays expected crowd of visitors was decidedly diminished by the rain, one of the most persistent rain storms of the season here. 1t rain ed from early morning until fate after noon. much of the time plenty hard. Some cf the tents pitched on rather low ground were partly flooded, but within few hours after the end of the storm all was dry again. As 1t was half hundred visitors were in the company street to join the men at the chicken dinner the cooks had prepared. Another opportunity for Putnam people to visit camp will be presented tomorrow, when Camp Trumbull observes Governors Day. There wi be athletic events, reeep- ton to the governor, review, and other activities. After Governors Day things are quickly wound up, tents are struck either Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning, and before noon Sunday the return to Putnam is be- gun.

The Many-Sided Mr.. Dawes

Drew Pearson. writing in The Living Age, dis
eusses the many-sided Charles c.. Dawes, presently
ambassador from the United States to the Court Of
o. James. depicting him in some ways that perhaps
even the homefoiks have not thought about:
Here is O man, charming and well bred, and yet
homely and uncouth. Here is a man who plays the
hurrah boy, who demands the limelight and gets it
Dy acting-sometimes by ham acting-yet who has
the soul OF an artist. Here is a man whose hard-
Medicines Is proverbal, but who has written a play
Tor his two adopted children, who plays the flute and
piano, and who has composed music that is played by
Kreisler. Here Is a man who reads Greek literature
and Nize Baby the history Of the Maya civilization
and Snowshoe AL who Is an expert on p. O.. Wode-
house and the lost continent Of Atlantis. Here Is a
man who denounced La Toilette as a Red and =
menace. who organized the minute-men Of the con-
stitution to wage war on union labor. yet who estab-
lished q chain Of charitable hotels for unemployed
startle mad charm. repel and win Great Britain as the
new American ambassador TO the Court of ST. James"
For some strange reason. the correspondent OF The
Living Age fails to size up Mr.. Dawes as a pipe
smoker. user Of picturesque profanity and q political
fighter. and also fails to mention his somewhat ner-
vous temperament. as shown by striking innumerable
matches to keep his old undressing pipe lighted. Nor
does he even so much as mention the ambassadors
penchant for precedent smashing in the matter Of
wearing long pants on occasions that. at the Court Of
81. James. call for satin knickers. This man. Dawes.
IS indeed a many-sided individual. and he makes
plenty OF good news for the cable companies.

Not Yet Solved

IN some half-dozen or more educational institu-
items Of Texas there are seriously and gravely taught
such beneficient subjects rs the following: theory OF
basketball. theory Of baseball. theory Of football, the
DRY Of wrestling. In the p~rescribde course of instruc-
lions are the interesting subdivisions. history Of the
game. theory Of the game, selection Of players. rules.
strategy, choice Of men and their development. ETC.
Far be 1t from any progressive modern TO depre-
ciate such instruction and the unquestioned benefits
deriving therefrom. The most unwise commonwealth
Is that which neglects physical training. Nevertheless
1t Is impossible to forget that tens Of thousands Of
Texas grammar school pupils are denied an average
term Of training because the state has failed to pro-
vide sufficient money to keep all its grammar schools
in operation nine months in the year. Texas cannot
be said to have solved her educational problems so
long as there Is money enough TO train wrestlers and
not enough to train thousands in reading. writing md
arithmetic.
