REVEILLE IN WASHINGTON
nv Margaret Leech

A country capital, stretched in
a muddy valley along the Potomac,
became in the spring Of 1851 a
symbol Of Federal prestige, prize
for which two armies commended.
Conferred in the Atlantic sea-board,
it was abruptly transformed into
a border town, perilously situated
between the warning sections. The
demand for its protection hamper
ed the movements of the Army of
the Potomac. On its little stage
was played the mighty political
drama of a nation divided by REBEL
ion. It was thronged by soldiers,
anxious relatives, foreign adven-
turers, crooks, contacorrs, report
ers, spies and harlots. Through the
pages of this book walk the
political figures of the day: the
Union generals from Winfield Scott
to Ulysses s. Grant; the lady spies,
Rose Greenhow and Belle Boyd;
Andrew Carnegie. Walt Whitman,
Clara Barton, Dorothea Dix, Louisa
M. Alcott, John Wilkes Booth and
a host of others.
At the opening Of hostilities
Washington was not only the capt
al Of the United States, but a COM
munity startled out Of its beisurely
Southern existence. War made 1t,
successfully, a village deserted in
panic, a barracks over-run by sold
iers, a vast base hospital for broken
men, a gay resort in which people
laughed and danced and drank
champagne in the prosperity and
hysterical reaction Of prolonged
conflict. War brought Washington
thronging crowds and Yankee
efficiency and, through the great
Capitalization of Federal author
ity, an importance of which the
capital has never dreamed.
REVEILLE IN WASHINGTON
portarys a half-loyal city, from the
doubts of the secession winter to
the triumphant grand review Of the
armies of the republic in the spring
Of 1865-its political leanings, its
social life, its press, its crime wave
and it's Negro problems. The book
describes the life in the White
House, and the struggle of Mary
Lincoln, a proud and wretched
woman in an unfriendly commun-
ity. This was the house where, for
four momentous years, Lincoln
lived, these were the streets in
which he walked, the soldiers he
reviewed, the receptions at which
he Unfortunately shook the peoples
hands. Here he was despised before
he was honored, here he was plotted
against and murdered. The story
of the accounts, Is an important
contribution to the history Of the
period. /,

with article captioned: The Small Businessman

This article is the third of a series analyzing
morale problems in connection with the defense

among the small businessmen and states that they
must band themselves together send representatives
to Washington to demand place in the defense

that the small towns necessary for the demo-
cratic way of life.
In closing the article states: And while we are
defending America against fascism, let us remember
that of the best ways to invite fascism here
after the present emergency is is to destroy

many Conversely, one of the best ways to safe
guard our democratic institutions is to keep small

Hunting License Does Not Give
Permission to Violate Property Rights

During the hunting a farmer of this
community lost fine horse another lost a ram, and
others placed in jeopardy through the fool
hardness of reckless hunters Because a man car
ries gun is no sign that he is a sportsman, and
there is a vast difference between a sportsman and
q hunter.
More farm lands have been posted this year
with mo trespassng" signs than ever before, and
all because hunters fail to judgment fail
to recognize property rights.
1t isn't asking too much to expect each hunter
to secure permission before he hunts another
mans property Practically everyone who have post
ed their farms, state that they have objection
to hunting their land provided that the persons
hunting there first ask permission. That's abso-
lutely fair.
Hunters should realize that hunting license
does not give them permission to violate property
rights. Those who do such foolhardy things
mentioned above, just spoil the fun of hunting for
others
