New Angel of Washington
BY ALICE DRAKE.

A NEW angel has come to Wash
n ington. He takes his place among
II the angels of bronze, marble,
1 a wood; those in. mosaic, oils and
stained glass. The newcomer,
whose name is Moroni. is fashioned of
an aluminium alloy and covered with
gold leaf. In this, he is unique. So
also is he unique in that he is the son
of a prophet.
Moroni has taken his stand on the
sharply tapering spire Of the beautiful
new Church of Jesus Christ OF Latter
Day Saints. at Sixteenth street and
Columbia road. An unseen metal rod
insures his maintaining his position.
But he has no wings. How can this
be the figure of an angelo" Passersby
thus protest that in this way Moroni
eliminates himself from classification
with the messengers of God. But in the
omission of this aerial detail, the sculp-
tor. Cyrus Dallin. did not fail his sub
iect. All angels do not carry this equip
ments. Certain angels painted by
Raphael have no wings. Certain of
those by Michaelangelo have none. 1t
is true that wings abound in the art
of Egypt, Babylon, Ninevah and Etruria,
but this does not mean that inevitably

supply this symbol of majesty, might
and divine beauty.
Ancient Tradition Recalled.
The arrival of Moroni has revealed
to the average layman, not a member
Of the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Lat
ter Day Saints, how little he knows
al in
in particular Perhaps he recalls the
ancient tradition to the effect that
Gabriel was chosen as the Angel of
the AnnUnClatiOn to indemnify him
for having been the one to drive Adam
and Eve from Eden" Perhaps he also
recalls that there is beautiful legend
concerning the angel Michael which re-
veals that he was the one chosen to
guard and to guide the Holy Family dur
ing its earthly journey But until one
Gay last Spring, when MOrOn!, after
a struggle, stood forth from his damp
wrappings, comparatively few Washing
ton residents knew of his existence.
MOrOni was the son of Mormon. In
or about A. D. 42l. Moroni. says one
historian, sealed the sacred record and
hid it up unto the Lord to be brought
forth in the latter days. as predicted by
the voice of God through his ancient
prophets, In 1927, this same Moroni,
then a reconstructed parsonage, deliv-
cred the engraved plates to Joseph
Smith,
And now, l06 years later, the last of
the Nephlte historians, the angel
Moroni, is represented in the National
Capital. This beautiful angel stands
as if pausing only for moment to
blow upon his trumpet. His right hand
is raised to support his instrument upon
which he is sounding forth a call to

In response to formal invitation
extended to him at the White House
yesterday by Herbert J, Grant, president
of the Church of Jesus Christ of Lat
ter Day Saints, and other high-ranking
officers of the church. who had come
all the way to Washington from Salt
Lake City. the President said he hoped
to be able to accept if it was possible
to get away from the White House at
that time He was unable, however, to
rive a definite answer because of the
pressure of business relating TO his re-
covery program.

8 inches thick. Small characters were
engraved on each side Of the plate.
The late James T. Talmadge, in his
book, "A Study Of the Articles Of
Faith" interprets the Book of Mormon
as "divinely inspired record made
by the prophets Of the ancient peoples
who inhabited the American Continent
for centuries before and after the time
of Christ. which record has been trans
lated in the present generation through
the gift of God and by His special ap-
pOintment."
Few denominations have given to the
National Capital so beautiful q church
as Is this new one designed by Don
Carlos Young. 1t is constructed of
marble quarried in Mount Nebo, Utah,
and hitherto never used for the exterior
of building Some months before the
recent dedication of the church, Moroni
took up his lofty position. Thus early
did an angel hover over the handiwork
of man dedicated to the worship OF
God
Art lovers can be glad that in this
instance the messenger of the Diety
has form. 1t will be recalled that some
of the angels Of the Old Testament had
none-only a voice was heard. Archl-
tect and sculptor have contributed the
elements of beauty and dignity to the
architecture and sculpture OF the
Capital City.

Best View Matter of Opinion.
Just when is the best hour to view
Moroni? This is question which the
spectator must answer for himself
While the sun is still in the east the
mellow gold with which the angel has
been touched CLEANS and giowS. Then,
it seems, is the best time. In the late
afternoon. when the sun has moved
into the western background, the statue
takes on new beauty. Then. it seems,
is the best time. When dusk has passed
and Moroni stands in silhouette against
the night sky-his head flung back, his
lips pressing against the slender trum-
pet-he takes on another aspect. Then,
perhaps. Is the best time.
The role that Moroni plays in de-
nominational history is an interesting
and important one. II was this angel
who gave to latter-day prophet the
plates Of gold which constitute the
Book of Mormon. 1t is said these plates
were of the thickness of ordinary sheet

New Soil Test Shifting
Land Out of Grain Crop

Without the new test for avail
able phosphorus developed by the
college OF agriculture, University of
Illinois. many Illinois farmers could
not decrease their grain acreage
and increase their legume acreage
TO cope with present low prices, ii
is pointed out by G. NJ. Lindsey,
soils extension specialist.
Many farmers are not financially
able, he explained. to make the rel
atively heavy investments in lime
stone and phosphate for land that
is too acid or too low in available
phosphorus for the growing of these
legumes. 1t is necessary that they
locate land In their fields already
containing enough lime and avail
able phosphorus. previously de-
veloped test of the colleges took
care of the limestone problem. and
now the more recently perfected
phosphorus test gives farmers
practical means of overcoming the
other important barrier in adjust
ing their crop acreage.
Thousands of farms throughout
central and northern Illinois have
areas of soil varying from a few
acres to entire fields which natural
ly contain enough limestone and
available phosphorus so that they
can be taken out of grain and put
into alfalfa, sweet clover or red
clover.
Farmers seldom recognize these
areas. What is more serious is that
without applying the two tests,
they often attempt to grow legumes
on land that is too low in available
phosphorus and lime. The result
is a waste of seed and time.

Declares Bald Eagle Is

Protect Fruit Trees

The only safe way to prevent rab-
bits from gnawing the bark Of the
trunks of young fruit trees Is to
wrap the base OF the tree trunks
from the ground to a height Of
about IS to 20 inches, or the space
between the ground and the lowest
branches. Where the branches are
less than Is inches above the soil,
the wrappers should include both
trunk and branches TO a height of
about Is or 20 inches. Various kinds
of wrapping material may be used.
Some of the most common are l.
inch mesh poultry wire, galvanized
window screen wire, galvanized
wire netting having three or four
meshes to the inch, old newspapers.
gunny sacks torn in strips 6 to s
inches wide and cornstalks. Wood
veneer wrappers, patented wire
wrappers. tarred paper and build

Use Surplus Cream
for Butter Supply
May Be Stored in Jars or
in One-Pound Prints.

BY JOHN A. AREY. North Carolina
State College.-WNU Service.
Farm butter, made from sweet
cream, may be packed in salt brine
and kept In the cold room for use
later when the supply may be low.
By reason of the low price of but
terfat, number Of housewives with
a surplus of cream have been max
ing inquiry as to the possibilities
of making up the cream into butter
and storing it for use later. This
plan has been practiced by some
North Carolina families for num-
Der of years. The first considera-
tion is that the butter be made
from sweet cream. Given this con-
dition, the resulting products may
be stored in jars, packed solidly or
in one-pound prints. In either case
the container must be thoroughly
and carefully scalded to kill all bac-
terial spores.
If packed solidly in such jars, the
packed butter needs to be covered
with a clean and sterile white cloth
and salt placed over this at least
1-32 Of an inch deep.
If prints are used, a salt brine
sufficiently strong to float an egg
Is prepared. This will take about
one-fourth as much salt as water.
Boiled water should be used. Then
the one-pound prints wrapped in
clean white cloth are placed In the
jar with string around each print
so that 1t may be recovered easily.
A stone plate or follower of some
kind should be placed on the butter
to keep II in the brine and then the
brine is poured over the whole
thing. From time to time 1t may
be necessary to add additional
brine.

Last Divine Service Was
Marriage of Princess.

Berlin. The ex-kaiser's former
chapel atop the imperial castle In
Berlin, after being closed for al
most 20 years, has been opened to
the public. The last divine service
held In the chapel was in May. 1913,
on the occasion of the marriage OF
Princess Victoria Luise, the kali
ser's only daughter. to the duke of
Brunswick, descendant Of the dukes
of Cumberland. archenemies OF the
Hohenzollern dynasty.
The chapel is located beneath the
fine cupola crowning the imperial
castle on Inter den Linden, a IA
miliar sight to every American tour
ist who visited the German capital.
The chapel and cupola rest on the
giant portal on the west side of the
castle modelled after the famous
Constantine arch I'm Rome. To give
the massive portal the necessary
foundation 5000 bulky wooden piles
were rammed into the swampy
earth. The castle as well at the
greater part of the German capital
is built on marshy land formed by
the rivers Spree and Havel.
The octagonal chapel measures 65
feet In diameter. soaring 160 feet
from the floor 10 the inner top of
the cupola. The altar. a present
of the Egyptian viceroy. Mehemet
Ali. is made of brownish yellow
alabaster. The massive altar roof.
resting on six pillars. is carved out
of one piece. The altar crucifix is
inlaid with numerous semi-precious
stones. Ten costly candelabras are
supported by antique Roman pillars
excavated in Pompeii. More than a
hundred pictures. representing Bib
lical scenes and Prussian rulers,
decorate the walls.
The history Of the chapel is COM
paratively new. While the Older
parts of the castle go back TO the
days of the renaissance, the chapel
and cupola were added In the years
1S45-1S53 according 10 the designs
of the Prussian King Frederick Will
liam ~ and the famous German
architect Schinkel.
