It Knocks Out All Previous
Ideas You Ever Had


Men, forget the many times you've

longs to considerably higher priced
class. And the reason is--Ifs ripe

tain the poorer leaves Of the tobacco
plant-under-ripe top leaves (usu-
ally bitter); or over-ripe bottom
leaves CASUALLY fiat-tasting). HG-

You can prove 1t In two minutes.

Architect Resigns.

Differences of opinion over the design
for the proposed new court house building
to be erected at Rockville resulted last
Friday in the resignation of Rossell Edward
Mitchell. the architect. who prepared the
original design, which was submitted to
the National Commission of Fine Arts, and
which did not meet with the approval of
that body. Lacey Shaw. vice president of
the board of county commissioners. an
nounced that Mr.. Mitchell had resigned
because Of the recommendations of the
Fine Arts Commission of type of archi-
lecture. which had been accetped by the
building committee. and with which he was
not in accord.
Troubles over the design of the proposed
building have been brewing for months.
but the committee had made every effort
to conceal them. The matter came to
head when the original design was sent to
the National Commission of Fine Arts. and
that body recommended that in place Of
the limestone facing. it should be of brick
with limestone trim. type of architecture
known as the Georgian style. similar to
that used in school houses. police stations
and en6ine ho,ees in tU"ah;-%.~-- re-
The building committee Friday approved
the new design submitted as result OF
the Fine Arts Commissions disapproval OF
the first design. but this is to be entirely
of limestone facing. 1t was said that the
committee unanimously approved this de-
sign. When the second design was SUBJ
mitted to the Fine Arts body, this organi-
cation said that it was intellectually
sound" but at the same time reiterated its
opinion that the Georgian style should be
followed in the proposed county building.
After accepting the resignation of Mr..
Mitchell, the committee named Delos H.
| Smith, of Washington, architect for the
building, and gave him instructions to pro-
coed with the preparation of the detailed
plans. 1t also appointed the following
committee on preparation of plans to meet
weekly with Mr.. Smith. and 60 over them
as they progress: Capt. Chester Wells. Geo.
P. Sacks. Berry E. Clark. Preston B. Ray
George E. Hamilton. DR.. Gilbert Grosvenof
Lacy Shaw, Ohio H. W. Talbot. H. F. Taft
and J. Roger Spates.
The new exterior design has made nee
essary considerable number of changes
in the interior of the building and reduc-
ton of the size of the structure as whole
to keep it within the money available at
this time. The original design for the
building called for width Of 227 feet and
a depth Of so feet. The new designs viii
provide for a width of 1870 feet. with q
possible reduction to 1850 feet and depth
of 81 feet. The present court house will
Re allowed to stand until some future time
when money is available to replace 1t with
one wing. The new design is what il
termed the Greek revival style Of architec
ture in the early nineteenth century. Their
will be portico with 6 columns in TIT
front and II steps leading up to the en-
trance.

MIRAGE NEAR
POINT COMMON
Inverted Trees and Unknown
Seas Hold Interest
Of Strangers

Tourists to this section ar often
surprised when driving to Point Is
abel by objects which disappear as
they approach. or by lakes OF water
apparently ~submerging the road IN
the distance. Also. trees and other
objects sometimes appear percheo
above the horizon. and in some
cases the object is inverted.
Mirages are common in this sec
ton, but few people understand
what causes them.
Stagnant Air
A layer Of rarified stagnant ali
everything hot surface mirrors the
sky. and produces the lake effect
creating the appearance of water
The inverted images Of trees and
other objects look like reflections on
liquid surface. In the distance cars
approaching look like they are
splashing through water.
Two terms are applied TO mirageS
looming" and towering" Loom
ing is when things are drawn out
vertically because Of unusual re-
fraction at various heights.
Appearances of inverted images
are a result OF unequal density OF
atmosphere. and objects visible
above the horizon that are in real
ity IN below the horizon and usually
invisible TO the naked eye are caused
by a refraction or bending Of light
IN It's passage through atmosphere.
See Around World
Calvin Frazer. in an article in
Popular Mechanics stated that OBJ
jects below the horizon could be
seen at times, and that a DR.. Vance
claimed that if the world was six
times as large as ii is now, a per-
son could see all the way around
ID.
Mirages are very common on the
oceans. and II Is said that the legend
Of the Flying Dutchman was created
by sailors seeing mirages that dis
appeared when they approached.
A mirage may be reproduced eX-
perimentally with the aid e. a glass
OF water and a newspaper. Set the
glass Of water near the edge OF a
table. and place the paper at one
side Of it. your eye at the other,
near the bottom of glass You will
see printing through water, and al
surface can be seen ar inverted
image Of printing.
