around the base Of the dome, Is .
historical frieze, the work Of the
same man. and his pupil, Costiginni,
. visual lesson In history covering
approximately 400 years, from Co
lumbus' momentous discovery to the
era Of the '49ers. Actually painted,
this work looks as II 1t were carved
In stone. Lining the wall are eight
pictures of moments IN early Ameri-
can history. Four Of these, done by
Col. John Trumbull, on Washing
tons staff. and dealing specifically
with Washington's period, boast
faces painted from life, with the
figures assembled according to dia.
grams made when the actual Incl.
dents occurred.
In the Senate and House cham.
bers, now reinforced by a network
of steel girders running from the
balconies to the ceilings, there Is
the opportunity to see history being
made. A special card from ones
Senator or Representative gives ac-
cess to these galleries. although q
service man or woman may take one
guest to view the proceedings with
out this permission. A party on
tour also has this privilege.
On the floor OF the crypt in the
central portion of the old building
Is a white star designating the space
in the subbasement which was to
have been the tomb Of Washington.
Although the idea was rejected by
his family, We are told that the
empty f1ag-draped tomb still lies
beneath the floor. A similar star,
directly above, in the rotunda, des-
ignates the spot on which the bodies
Iof the Presidents who die in office
lie In state for "a hours. Also in
the crypt Is a model of the Capitol
Building, of the Supreme Court, and
monument to the pioneer suffra-
Igettes.
The old Supreme Court room,
which in its earliest days housed
the Senate, and now is no longer in
use, is open to public inspection.
This section, with small adjoining
rooms, comprises the original build
ing.
The Presidents room, at the dis
posal OF the Chief Executive when
ever he elects to use it, was fur
nished in Lincoln's administration.
The framework of the original fur
niture is still In evidence.
The vividly decorated walls and
ceilings of the downstairs corridor
and the English tiled floors of the
Senate Building, together with
Tobacco Corridor" in thee House so
named for its tobacco-colored marble
walls, add to the buildings beauty.
You and Junior may inspect the
building ION your own," or you may
avail yourselves Of the guide service.
Adults are taken on tour for a nomi-
nal fee, and there Is no fee for
children under II ACCOMPANIED by
their parents, nor for service men
and women. The Capitol Is open
from 8 am. to 4:30 pm. every day.

decide on for each item depends =
great deal on your particular needs

even try to suggest amounts, except
as I have in the case of food, which

For the lady who wanted carrot
ideas"-I haven't seen anything that
sounds like our favorite carrot recipe
so here it is. Scrape and slice fairly
thin as many carrots as you use for
the people to be served. Il usually
allow two pretty good-sized ones to
a personD Put in creased casserole,
sprinkle with salt and put in lump
of butter COR margarine), cover and
bake at 375 degrees, about 40 min
utes or longer If you have large
casserole full. Stir occasionally to
mix in salt and butter and when
tender uncover and bake for about
five minutes longer. My husband is
always disappointed II I serve car
rots any other way!

SPRING CLEANING HINTS.
FROZEN FRUIT PIES?
(Thanks to Mrs. A. B. A.,
CheDy Chase, Md.)
With spring cleaning "just around
the corner I'd like to add to the
vast number of your contributors
of household hints.
After starching and stretching
curtains it's always a task to insert
the rod for hanging without either
tearing the curtain or mussing it UP.
If one will take a glass marble and
put 1t in one end Of the curtain
hem it's amazing how easily it will
roll right through with little effort
making plenty of room for any of
the fiat or round rods.
Possibly some of your readers In
the Bethesda area have purchased
frozen pies" which are delicious,
but has any one ever tried to use
the frozen fruit, such as pineapple,
cherries. apricots, blueberries, ETC.,
for making their pies at home? If
so, I'd appreciate their recipes.
Frankly, I don't think there is a
housewife in Washington or any

TO THE LAST ROUND

A five-man New York State commission against dis
elimination with offices in New York City, Buffalo and
Albany has begun historic venture in democracy UNI
DER Governor Thomas E. Dewey 1t had been hoped that
a similar FEPC commission would be operating with
offices say Boston, Springfield and New Bedford but
this hope did not materaze The opposition to fair en-
ployment legislation Massachusetts marshaed the same
kind of forces which vany sought defeat Of FEPC in New
York. The arguments too were advanced here
which New York opponents had used their weapons to
avail The lesson to supporters of anbias legislation
for this state to work harder in the during the
next few months and bring greater pressure to bear on
personalities in the legislature Such pressure in New
York became great that the opposition completely
routed.
1t is not at all pleasant to contemplate the abandonment
Of Massachusetts traditional position in the forward ranks
of Liberty and equality for all Nor is pleasant to note
that leadership in the state has become tmd, lacking
sefreiance, and waits to what other state will
do. But FEPC victory be here by strong united
action Let all realize that the fight has just begun With
increased determination and energetic effort let
prove that courageous leadership is not casualty here

WAVES URGENTLY MEEDED-dOW-E

Jacksonville, Florida, now, and
may not be with us long.
Too much praise can not be
given to the local committee of
Springfield, headed by Sir Lloyd
N. Carroll, Springf1eld's leading
colored citizen and a member of
our Official staff, for the splen-
did preparations made by syria
cuse Lodge and Gloria and FL
deity courts for the entertain
ment Of our Grand Lodge.
The following officers were
unanimously re elected: Boston,
George w. Williams, grand
chancellor; Hartford, Matthew
J. Wood, vice grand chancellor;
Boston, Rev. E. o. Woodhouse,
grand prelate; Boston, w. A..
Howard, grand master ex-
chequer; Providence, r l.,
George T. Prescod, grand keeper
of records and seals; Roxbury,
Jacob II. Goings, grand master
of arms; Boston, Edward A. Glib
bons, grand outer guard: Boston,
John B. Scott, grand inner
guard, Boston, DR.. Walter o.
Taylor, grand medical registrar
A note Of sadness was injected
into the proceedings by the in
formation that two of our vet
eran leaders were absent because
of serious illness. Past Grand
Chancellor Charles w. Curtis
was one of the leaders of the E.
and W. Pythians at the time of
the division over so years ago
and he was also a leader in the
movement to reunite in 1888.
The one living Pythian who
stood firm for the Alphabetical
order of Pythians in those hec-
ito days over so years ago is Sir
Louis williams whom we call
the father Of NASAEAA&A Pyth-
ians in New England. These two
grand old men probably never
missed a Grand Lodge session
before in their long and useful
lives.
Before closing it was unani-
mously agreed that choice of the
next convention city should be
left to the Grand Chancellor and
we hope that 1e46 will see all
war time restrictions lifted per-
mitting Us to meet without any
curtailment Of our customary
program.

WOmen's Hospital
Reviews Work For
Its 5bfh Year

Nearly 1000 patients were adj
mitted to the Massachusetts,
Women's Hospital, So Parker
Hill avenue, Boston, with 1870
days treatment being given dur
ing the year 1914, it was an
nounced by Mrs. Lila M. Little,
superintendent.
The total number Of babies
born during the year was 359,
and one case especially des-
erves commentator. A baby
born in october, weighed two
pounds two ounces, and al
though it was put into an incu-
bator, it went down to one
pound six ounces. Very few
babies survive upon reaching
such a low peak. However, in six
weeks, the child was discharged
weighing five pounds two oun-
ces, and today is a healthy
baby OF seventeen pounds.
Much free work was done for
cancer patients with money
donated by the State Federation
Of Womens Clubs.

Segregation: It's Vicious
Purpose

Segregation is the special
American means Of branding
colored Americans as the in
feriors Of interiors in public
status.
when the white South
found itself confronted with
the federal status of equality
for colored people, the former
Slaves-equality of citizen
ship. of freedom, of franchise
rights, backed by the nation
al government - 1t selected
the denial of presence and Of
service in places opened for
public patronage as the one
great way to brand colored
people as having been a slave
race and make them, forever
the scorn of civil society.

ure. Colored people are trail
tors to themselves to aid and
abet the idea by self-segrega-
ton"

The report Of Grand Attorney

When DR.. Walter o. Taylor

sition which he has held since
the organization Of this Grand
Lodge by the late Grand Chan
cellor, E. B. Barco in 1916, eX-
cept the years that he was Grand
Chancellor, he was greeted with
an outburst Of applause, and
several speeches were made in
eulogy of his long and useful
service as a Ppthian, physician,
churchman and civic leader.
Grand Chancellor williams spoke
of him as a personal friend and
his own family doctor; also
that they had been co-workers
in church and fraternities for
many years. Words of high
praise we're spoken by Sir Knight

leader comparable to Frederick

said that his success as a ply

ure to the fact that he took
Christ with him to the bedside
Of his patients.
DR.. Taylor spoke earnestly and
eloquentIy and made a passion
ate appeal for harmony, adj
monishing all officers and mem
bers not to be Swayed by per-
sonal ambition in seeking office.
"Act well your part and merit
advancement" he said, "and let
