Famed in history as the gar
den spot Of the world" the his
toric Shenandoah Valley of Vir-
ginia Is likewise the center Of
much historical interest.
In the center OF the valley,
halfway from the northern to the
southern end, lies the city OF
Staunton. This little town, of.
about $4,000 people, Is chiefly
famed as the birthplace Of Wood
row Wilson, but Its fame does
not alone rely upon that claim.
Staunton is one Of the chief edtl-
cational centerS of Virginia, If
not of the entire South. The
Staunton Military Academy, one
Of the first Southern schools to
earn the honor rating Of the
War Department, Is one of the
institutions which have added
fame to the city.

Lexington Is
Famed Town
Two Noted Colleges and
Many Historical Sites
Are in Village

Probably no town Of its size in
the United States Is more famous
for spots of historic interest than
Lexington. Va. situated in the
Shenandoah Valley.
Two schools of national fame
are located in the little town.
One is the Virginia Military
Academy. which has been called
the "West Point of the South >
and the other is Washington and
Lee University.
The latter institution formerly
was known as Washington Col
leae. At the conclusion OF the
CiTil war the presidency Of the
college was assumed by Gen.
Robert E. Lee, and when the col
leTe was elevated to university
rank Lees name was added to its
title.
Probably the most noted spot
about the university, from the
tourist viewpoint, is the chapel.
Here is found the well-knoWn
recumbent statue Of Lee, pro
nounced by art critics one OF the
finest pieces of modern sculpture
in existence. Lees tomb, and the
ton1bs of members of his family,
lies in the lower part of the
chapel, while in the basement IS
his study, preserved just as he
left it at death. The furniture
and papers are arranged just as
the famous leader was wont to
have them in his life.
The skeleton Of Traveller, Lees
horse which the general rode dur
ing the Civil War, Is found in
the museum, as we'll as maay
other articles connected with his
life.
The atmosphere of the old,time
South permeates the town. Many
of the colored people can recall
the days when 'Mafse Robert, :"
as Lee was affectionately known,
used to ride Traveller about the
adjoining country and exchange
pleasantries with the folk of the
town.
At the Virginia Military Insti.
tute is a painting of the famous
battle of New Market. In which
the cadets of the school parti-
cipated. Many Of the students

AuturnnLures
To Resorts
Fishing Now at Best, With
Swimming and Boating
Calling Many

The approach Of autumn has
increased rather than decreased
the popularity Of the water re-
sorts along Chesapeake Bay and
the rivers that lead into it.
Fishermen are out daily and
the amateurs are having fisher
mems luck" in every respect. The
city folk do not now have to pur-
chase fish from the professional
watermen to carry to their home
as exhibitions" Of their success.
They get them themselves now.
The Conservation Commission Of
Maryland recently made an an
nouncement that there are more
fish and crabs in the Chesapeake
Bay and its tributaries than
there have been for years.
The recent return Of the hot
spell brought joy TO the hearts
Of the swimmers. Swimmers have
been out most Of the day this
week at the river and bay resorts
and they were able to cavort with
out fear because TIE sea nettles
that came early and big this sum-
mer have mostly disappeared.
Sailing and fast motor boats
have recently become more popu-
lar than ever before and parties
are following that sort of sport
night and day in every river be-
tween the Potomac and Patapsco.
Washingtonians have gone
deeply into the speed boat sports.
Most of those who have summer
homes on the rivers in Maryland
have outboard motor boats that
make at least 20 miles an hour.

Season Big
Chesapeake Beach Still to
Be Lure Two Months
For Crowds

The closing of Seaside Park
Sunday night concludes a re
markably successful season al
Chesapeake Beach's new amuse
ment resort, and the various
other attractions of the beach
will continue for two months
yet to draw visitors from Wash
ington for brief outings or for
longer stays.
The present season has wit
messed remarkable improvements
at the beach, most notable
among them the creation Of The
new amusement park. The Ches
apeake Beach Railway. however
has been completely rehabilitated
with the purchase of new motive
power and coaches and the reno
vation of equipment already in
service.
Earnings Increased
Not only have freight earnings
increased enormously during the
past year, but the company has
instituted a voluntary reduction
in passenger fares and a volun'
tary increase in the wage scale
of employees. -
The new motor road to the
beach has also been completed
affording a delightful drive for
Washington motorists, and the
railway company has received per
mission from the Interstate Com.
merce Commission to operate a
ferry service between Chesapeake
Beach and the Eastern Shore
In view of all these facts, next
seasons prospects at the beach
are even brighter than was the
outlook for this season at its
start.
=. Year-ROund Home
AS. a result Of the numerous
changes, the popularity Of Chesa-
peake Beach as year-round
place of residence is rapidly in
creasing, and large numbers of
new homes and summer bunga-
lows have been built there of
late. Realty values are definitely
on the upward trend as well.
A yacht basin Is a prospective
improvement for the near future
but probably this will not come
to realization until the new ferry
is completed.

CAROL MAY MARRY
MADAME LUPESCU
Court Circles Buzz With
RumorS of Contemplated
Union.

VIENNA, Austria, August "a
prominent diplomat passing through
Vienna after stay in Bucharest, to-
day told friends here that 1t was
rumored in Rumanian court circles
that King Carol was seriously contenn-
plating a morganatic marriage with the
titian-haired flame of his exile, Nine.
Magda Lupescu.
1t was said the King had therefore
decided not to press further the ques-
ton of an annulment of his divorce
from Queen Helen.
The morganatic marriage envisaged
would bar the royal succession to any
children Although they could never
succeed to the throne, they might bear
titles or nobility Nine. Lupescu's pre-
negatives would be limited.
The diplomat said that King Carols
friends were trying to dissuade him
from the project. first because Nine:
Lupescu is of Jewish extraction, and
second, because by it they think the
King would forfeit the support OF the
army officers who welcomed him on
his return from exile.
Nine. Lupescu, for whom Carol alb
jured his rights to the throne while
still Crown Prince of Rumania, was
last reported living In Switzerland. 1t
was said that secret agreement barred
her from entering Rumania for great
many years. Rumors that she would
none the less return have been con-
sistently denied by government circles
in Bucharest.
