L full and plentiful old days Of
the Colonial era, before the monster
OF modern turmoil crept across the
world. The opportunity to test this
desire comes with visit to Williams
burg, Va, where one may live again
as the colonists lived in their spacious
old mansions. with their beautiful box
bordered gardens, their cobbled streets,
shaded with giant trees, and their
freedom from economic problems.
Just 165 miles by motor from Wash
ington, Williamsburg, Va, offers an
ideal objective for a weekend trip.
With crisp Autumn days tempting one
out Of doors, and excellent roads all
the way, the motorist could find no
more delightful way to spend Satur-
day and Sunday.
From Washington take U. S. Route
No. l to Fredericksburg, where you
have the choice of No. / or No. 2
routes to Richmond. No 2 is prefer
able because trucks and heavy traffic
do not use it. Although somewhat
narrower than route No. /, it Is an
excellent road and by far the more
picturesque, going through such
charming old towns as Bowling Green
and Hanover Court House, where
Patrick Henry once lived.
From Richmond follow route 60 to
Williamsburg, the restored Colonial
village where the eighteenth century
lives again in tangible, beautiful FORM
The second capital of Virginia, this
town of such vital historic memories
had suffered years Of neglect and de-
cay until the generous interest Of John
D. Rockefeller, jr, restored its early
glory. It was DR.. Goodwin of Bruton
Parish Church whose vision and elo-
quence enlisted the sponsorship of Mr..
Rockefeller in the work Of restoration.
I1PON entering Williamsburg the Wis
itor is at once gratefully aware OF
the absolute serenity of the scene. The
charming "Tidewater Colonial" houses,
the whitewashed picket fences and the
scent of fashioned flowers cast q
profound spell of peace. The complete
lack Of modernity Is especially re-
markable, as Williamsburg Is col
lege town, alive with hundreds Of
young people, the students of the Col
lege of William and Mary, second
Oldest university in America. The
village is so entirely stepped in the
Colonial atmosphere that not even the
active life of the students disturbs it
In any way.
This college. of course, was the
towns main raison d'etre during the
stagnant years between the time of
the removal of the capital to Rich
mond and the recent restoration. One
should not miss stroll through the
fine old grounds of the college with
their noble, spreading trees, nor q
sight of the buildings, particularly the
Wren Building, designed by Sir
Christopher in 1895.
The great task of the restoration of
Williamsburg has been carried on
with infinite taste and sensitiveness,

- the largest single job Of pub
fishing ever undertaken in the
u United States. The project
began II years ago, outlived most Of
those who initiated it and at one
time literally became so weighty as
to threaten the destruction Of the
building in which It was housed.
It was the printing and binding Of
The Official Records Of the War Of
the Rebellion"
About 10000 sets of 12S volumes
each were printed. each set contain
ing more than 125.000 pages, includ-
ing q 1900 page index. 178 maps and

Completed In II Years.
The whole job was not actually
completed until September 10, 1895
just II years and 4 months after 1t
was begun-when the librarian Of the
Government Printing Once on that
day signed the receipt for part 81,
final volume of the vast atlas accom-
panying the records, which had just
come from the bindery.
The work was first considered by
Congress on May 10, 1854, and the

priation Of $4,000. Other acts, from
time to time, carried on the work
desultorily until December IA. 1877,
when Capt. Robert N. Scott, latel
lieutenant colonel, was detailed to it
The first act which specifically
provided for the publication Of these
records came on June 23, 1874. The
preliminary prints" were recognized
as unsatisfactory, but there is one
complete set of these preliminary
prints in the War Department library.
Then, under an act of June l6,
1880, after Capt. Scott had been on
the work for three years, came a final
definition Of the project.
According to the act, there was to
60 forward the printing and bind
ing of 10000 copies of a compilation
of all 1.-The Official Records Of the War

House of Representatives, 1000 for
the Senate, and 1000 for the use Of
the executive departments.
Under Capt. Scott the work was
systematized and the plan finally
adopted which was carried on
throughout the entire compilation.
Capt. Scott died in the midst oi
the work, and Col. H. M. Lazelle was
put in charge. Still later, board

CITIZENS DEMAND
SAFETY MEASURES
North Capitol Association
Suggests Several Plans
t to Eliminate PeriIS.

The Star safety campaign was unan-
imously indorsed by the North Capitol
Citizens Association last night, and
in connection with the drive the group
approved measures to remedy traffic
hazards in that vicinity. The meeting.
the first of this year. was held in the
Mckinley High School,
g. s. Stabler introduced measure
requesting installation of trafflc lights
on North Capitol street northeast at
Michigan avenue, r and T streets. and
at Michigan avenue and First street.
Traffic conditions are exceptionally
dangerous at these intersections,
Stabler said.
The group requested caution signs
be placed on North Capitol street to
warn motorists that the car tracks are
slippery when wet, as these tracks do
not have fiange rail.
"A resolution was passed requesting
that street name plates be made more
legible and that tree limbs and other
Obstacles that obstruct clear view be
removed.
The Public Utilities Committee was
authorized to cooperate with the
Brookland association in a drive to
eliminate one-man cars on North Cap
itol street.
The Streets, Sidewalks and Lights
Committee was requested to present
the proposed safety measures to the
Commissioners.
William M. Deving, representative
Of the Trinity College. presented a
plan to close Lincoln road northeast
north of Franklin street, which would
continue the route to Hardwood road
by turning right on Franklin street
into Fourth street, thence to Michigan
avenue and Hardwood road Deving
stated that If Lincoln road were
widened as proposed, changes would
have to be made at st. Mary. Prospect
Hill and Glenwood Cemeteries and
Trinity College, entailing expenditures
Of between $40 900 and s45.o00. In
return for closing this end Of Lincoln
road. he stated. the college would
donate land for the opening of Frank
hn street into Michigan avenue.
Selden NJ Ely urged the association
to approve this measure, because the
new route would afford q better ap-
proach to Mckinley High School. The
group approved the plan.
A nominating committee. headed
by Guy F. Numbers, was appointed to
select q slate of new officers.

the last volumes Of the records were
coming from the presses. At that
time also there began the issuance
Of a revised edition of the additions
and corrections to the records, the
latter already printed with the gen.
eral index, a separate pamphlet for
each volume, to be inserted later.
The atlas contains maps of battle

bv DALE COLLINS

Everyone was hurrying off to the other side
of Malu, talking as they went, not gaiy but
with sour faces. Lerina had slipped her hand
into his, and they started off together. When
they came to the other beach, all the people
who had stayed on Malu were clustered along
the edge of the lagoon, and the Sailo was
coming in through the hole in the circle that
was Malu. David had forgotten how big she
was, and the pig noise she made as she
grunted along. All this and much besides -
the old sense of wonder as to how and why
and whence - came back, but rather sur
prisingly Ma and Da did not, and the people
of Malu were sad and silent, as if the Sailo
wasn't fun, as it used to be.
They just waited, looking out at the Sailo
which had stopped and sat on the water,
bobbing little, just as the white gulls sat.
The pig noise had ceased, leaving the day very
quiet. A canoe, not like those of Malu, left
beach with long paddles scrapng into the
fiat water The grown-ups spoke together
They were angry, and grunted bad words
like the pig had the time it ate up its babies.
When the canoe came closer, he saw that
white man and a white woman sat in her and
we're padded by two brown men. For space,
David took it for granted that they were Ma
and Da. That seemed only natural. Their
going away was connected in some fashion
with the Sailo, and here the Sao brought

them back. He was glad. 1t would be nice
to be with them again.
But the people were not David's Ma and
Da. He would have known if they had been -
in some way he would have known for certain.
An emptiness swept through him. 1t soon
passed. The people claimed all his attention.
1t was strange to see white faces and necks
and hands again. But the man was not really
white; he was red like the sun of morning.
He was the biggest man David had ever
seen. He was so big that he pressed hard
against the white suit he wore, and he looked
so red and pressed so hard that it seemed he
might go off with pop, just as the seaweed
bulbs did when you squeezed them.
The other person was lady like Ma, only
different. She was very small and thin, with
very white small face. She was frightened
and sad. David was sorry for her.
"Hullo, hullo," the man said when they
were close. What up? What S happened2"
No one said anything back to him.
"All lost your tongues?"
Xavier St. Joseph, who had been the boss
of almost everything since the others went
away stepped forward and said, Plenty die.
The man from your ship bring plenty death.
Plenty die

children passed them and swan out into
deeper water, but David was not allowed to do
that, because he was white and sharks could
see a white skin long way off, and smell it,
too. White children had to be afraid of sharks.
He had always known that.
He lay on his back in the warm water and
looked up into the sky, wondering where the
clouds went to. Suddenly there was an outcry
from the bigger children.
"Sail-o! Sail-o" they cried, making noise
like hungry gulls.
David sat up. On the fiat sea, huge canoe
moved along. For breath he was astounded.
Then he remembered. He had seen it before.
This was the Sailo which Ma and Da had
often talked about. They used to look for it,
but they couldn't find it. And here it was
There was a great hustle in all the huts.
Everyone was hurrying into the clothes they
wore only on big occasions. The women had
on long clothes like Ma used to put on at
night in the hut, and the men had on clothes
like Da's, but they did not look the same on
account of their feet and hands and faces
being brown.
1t was always this way when the Sailo
came, he remembered now; but before there
had been ever so many more people, and they
were much happier and noisier 1t had been
sad and still on Malu since all the others
went away. Only the very little children
laughed.
Evening star., 1935-12-08

@HE sun rose from the hole in the sea
where it slept. 1t climbed the sky
in hurry, and its face was very
- red, Just as David's was whenever
he tried to go up palm as the native boys
did. The sun soon tired and went more slowly
and lost its redness. 1t was that way every
morning. 1t never forgot to get up and look
at Malu.
David lay rolled in his mat and watched
the sun through the open side of the hut. He
wondered whether Ma and Da would ever
come back. So long since they went away
that it was hard to believe they had ever
been on Malu They were growing dim,
fading, like the palms when the sun dived
down into the sea- The same with all those
others who had gone away about then, but
thew were even DINNER He could hardly
see them at all.
David crawled from his mat and wandered
out into the morning. He left the Others
asleep in the hut They would wake presently,
and then there would be food. He was hungry.
The bowl of taro would be good.
A big crab ran backwards down nearby
palm and shuffled across the sand. David
threw a piece of coral at it, and the crab
vanished into a hole. The dark little girl
Lerina came out of another hut. He beckoned,
and she ran to join him. Hand in hand, they
went down to the water and sat in the shall
lows splashing each other. Some bigger
