Of all that makes the Federal
City the most beautiful national
capital in the world.
It's public buildings and
grounds and parks are a ma
tional asset. The people OF
every State take q vital inter.
set in their governance and
development because Washing
ton belongs not to a local
group but to the entire Ameri-
can people in their corporate
capacity as a nation.
George Washington intended
that the Federal City should
express the soul of America"

ONCE OVERS
Hospitality


When you are entertaining
guests for a long or short pc
Rod, do you stop to consider
what would be most enjoyed
by your guests individually or
do you plan what you have
always wanted to do yourself?
Perhaps you plan what is
easiest for you, and say to
yourself, GAS I am doing this
entertaining, let them take
what they get and be thank
full"
If you want your guests
happy, that is not the right
way to feel.
To be a guest signifies that
generous hospitality is extended
to you.
To entertain a guest is to
show Difference to the one un-
der your roof, by chance or in
vited, for a short period.
Some hostesses make it badly
apparent just when the guests
are expected to depart.
That could be obviated by set
ting an arriving and q going
away time.

The park system Of the Feo"
eral City, as Director CammereY
points out, was an Important
phase of the plans Of the orig
inal city of Washington in &C
cordance with the act OF July
Is, 1890. In addition to the
donated street areas, President
Washington purchased II reser-
vations, which included the
Capitol grounds and the White
House grounds or Presidents
Park.
Many other park areas have
been acquired since through rec
lamation at Federal expense and
through donation.
When President Roosevelt re-
Gently transferred the admin
istration of the parks of the
Federal city from the War De-
partment, where for years they
had been admirably ordered, to
the Department of the Interior,
he was careful to specify that
they should be retained under
absolute Federal control. He
authorized the transfer only
that he might make them q
part of the worlds greatest
park organization. which is a
Federal agency, administered for
the benefit of all the people OF
the United States.

In the spring Of 1918 this

officer whose face was SWathed

National Aspect

The suggestion Of a newly
appointed Commissioner of the
District of Columbia that all
the parks of the Federal City
be taken away from the Fed
eral Government and turned
over to the control of the local
political authorities richly
merits the national rebuke 1t
will doubtless get.
The undesirability Of this pro-
posal is made convincingly clear
in the prompt announcement by
the Secretary of the Interior
that the Roosevelt AdminiStra'
ton will oppose such a trans
fer as "a step backward in both
economy and functioning."
Speaking for the AdminiStra-
ton, the Director of National
Parks, Buildings and ReServa-
tions, A. B. Cammerer. says:
"Ths public parks of Wash
inston provide the setting for
most of the Government build
inRs.
"They are essentially an
ornament to the National Cap
ital rather than local recreG.
tiOnGI areas.
"FedevGl funds tOere used in
the purchase and improvement
of a large portion of the park
areas, and taxes paid by
citizens from all parts of the

CHARRED MATERIAL

 FOUND ON BURNED GAR

Evidence indicating that the fire in which about $100 worth of government property, including a carload of Seattle-made crosSties and wood structure of one flat car and one refrigerator car On the siding of the Alaska Railroad in Seward was incendiary, has been definitely established, it is said, as a result of Investigation made by local authorities.
 A box half-full of charred mat erial which evidently was the re- mains of the contents of a journal box on one of the flat cars in the same train, has been collected.
 A journal box was found open on one of the flat cars on the same track, and the oil packing had been removed. It is thought that this was the only material used in the alleged arson plot.
 Further evidence is in the hands of Assistant U. S. District At torney Reed, and the investigation will probably be augmented We'd nesday by railroad officials.

Maryland convict, was baked today by

saloon brawl.
The State ordered the police to pro-
duce witnesses in the grand jury room
Monday when true bills will be asked
charging Hart with three assaults.
j. Bernard Wells, Baltimore prose-
cutor who tried unsuccessfuly to obtain
custody of Hart to return him to Mary
land. watched the proceedings. States
Attorney Thomas j. Courtney Of Cook
County said he would convict Hart here
and send him to prison before yielding
him to the Baltimore authorities.
