Parish. In 1914 Middleton Parish
became united with the parish of
Marston - established in York
County nearby in 1654-and the
union of all three parishes was
thereafter called Bruton Parish, in
honor of an ardent Christian colo
mist, one Thomas Ludwell, esquire,
who, according to the epitaph on his
tomb at the door of the present
Bruton Church, was born in Bru-
ton, Somerset County, England, and
died in Williamsburg in 1878.
The present church really super
sedes two older buildings. While
practically nothing is known of the
original edif1ce, it Is recorded that
In 1874 the erection of a new brick
church was ordered by the vestry to
replace the then existing church,
whose foundations have now been
uncovered. This building, erected on
adjoining land donated by John
Page, was completed In 1888, but
with the removal of the seat of gov
eminent from Jamestown to Middle
Plantation in 1899, and the estab-
lishment of the new capital OF Will
liamsburg, it soon was deemed in
adequate, and in ITO. upon the
same site, there began the erection
of a larger church, which is the
one in existence today.
So far Mrs. Bauer's theories and
studies of the tombs with her So
called code" system have proved
successful, she declares. But the
vestry, more interested in the foun-
dations of the first church than IN
the theory she is trying to prove,
have now taken over the archeolog-
ical study, naming . special COM

Anti-AirUaft Trainina
By Militia Stressed

Pointing out that the wars in
Spain and China have brought to
the attention of the military author
tiles the Importance of active anti
aircraft measures in modern war
fare, Mai. Gen. Albert H. Banding
chief of the National Guard Bureau
OF the War Department., has in
formed guard officers that rapid
progress is being made along this
line in the militia throughout the
country. He said that the increase
Of efficiency Of militia anti aircraft
units and improved training is some
thing which must be considered vi
tally important and necessary.
He explained that Congress dur
ing the past year has made pro-
vision for large amount of anti
aircraft equipment for the Regular
Army and the War Reserve. He
added that by agreement with the
general staff the National Guard
expects to receive from 1899 funds.
without charge to the National
Guard appropriation. enough addi-
tional ordnance material to COM
plete the full equipment of every
gun and machine gun battery in
the 10 existing anti-aircraft regi-
ments. This expected equipment is
to be made available as manufac-
tured and delivered. and it is fur
Their expected that additional search
light equipment will be furnished
in 1910.
Discussing other phases of equip
ment for the National Guard. he
said the situation with regard to
tanks has not yet been cleared up.
He said there should be minimum
of four tanks per company for the
purpose of training, but during the
past year no provision was made for
any immediate increase in tanks.
Developments in tank design have
been so rapid in the past year or
two, he pointed out, that much Sc
rious study is required to determine
the best line of development. On
the other side, he continued. every
effort is being made to bring the
anti-aircraft mechanical defense of
the National Guard up to COM
pleted state. Like aircraft ma
terial, anti-tank guns may not be
readily obtainable in an emergency,
which makes it especially desirable
that they be obtained in sufficient
numbers at an early date.
One of the most serious equipment
problems confronting the militia, he
said, was the lack of sufficient gas
masks. During the preeent year, he
asserted. 100 service gas masks were
procured, which only provided re-
placement for unserviceable masks.
The ratio still remains, he said, eight
gas masks per hundred men, said to
be entirely inadequate for chemical
warfare training. The matter was
all the more serious, he added, be-
cause it cannot be expected that
modern war on a major scale will
be fought along non-chemical lines.
He pointed to the fact that one
American casualty in every four in
the A. E. F. was a chemical casualty.
There has been delay in getting
the SO observation airplanes, under
procurement. The first of these was
not received until July % last, but
it is now expected that all planes
will be in the hands of the National
Guard squadrons by March of next
year. Funds for 1899 provide for
48 more airplanes.

New Unit Planned
In New Hampshire
Avenue Area
200 Signed Petition in
Preparation for Petworth
Association Offshoot

Plans for a new organization to
be called the Hampshire Heights
Citizens Association are now being
made. Roughly, its boundaries
would be Rock Greek Church road,
Jefferson, Fifth and Buchanan
streets NV.
This is new territory" Harold
D. johnson, one of the leaders in
the movement for the new asso-
citation, said last night. -Four or
five years ago there were no houses
here, but now it is all built up.
There are people living here who
have moved here recently; they
want their own association"
A petition asking that a new as
ISOLATION be formed was circulated
early last summer and over 200 citi-
zens signed it. A meeting was held
in July and there committee was
set up to prepare constitution and
bylaws and to organize the asso-
citation.
Preliminary work has now been
completed, Mr.. johnson said, and
second meeting is planned in the
near future.
The greater part of the territory
proposed for the new association
has heretofore been served by the
Petworth Citizens Association. Only
two streets to be included would
come from the Chillum Heights
body.
Mr.. johnson said last night that
Chillum Heights officers have indi-
Gated they would favor the new
unit, but the Petworth group, which
has several hundred members in the
area, has not yet acted. Last week
two Petworth delegates, Earl Cooper
and Horace j. Phelps, attended a
conference at which plans for the
new body were outlined.
