Winding up its twenty-ninth an- nual convention yesterday with an automobile tour of the city, under the auspices of the American Civic Assoclation, the National Municipal League elected Frank L. Polk, for- mer undersecretary of state, as its president. Other officers were ejected as fol- lows: Meyer Lissner, Shipping Board commissioner; Dr. L. 5. Rowe, di- rector general, the Pan-Amerlcan Unfon; George Burnham, jr.; Richard Childs, Morton D. Hull, W. D. Lighthall, A. Lawrence Powell, J. Horace McFarland, Samuel -Mather, Jullus Rosenwald, Senator Carter Glass, George B. Dealey and C. E. Merriam, vice presidents. Carl H. Pforzheimer and H. W. Dodds were re-elected treasurer and secretury, respectively. Advantages of a municipality whose government and activities are self- contained and which s not involved in its municipal activities with another lurisdiction adjacent to it were ouflined by Louls Brownlow, former chairman of the board of Commissioners of the District, at the lupcheon thix afternoon. r. Brownlow pointed to the Dis- trict of Columbia and Petersburg, Va. two municipulities with whose gov- ernment he has been ussoclated, as fine examples of a lack of jurisdic- tional overlapping. Establishment of a -line between the city and county activities prevents much more waste of public money and eliminates much overlapping of public functions with- in both organisations, Mr. Brownlow sald. particularly incities of large size. In addition, he declared, the prob- lems of jurisdiction are clearly deline- ated and each organization—the city and county or state—knows just where its jurisdiction stops and au- thority of the other begins. Other speakers at the luncheon were Arthur E. ¥elson, mayor of St. Paul, and Dr. A. R. Hatton. Prac- tically the ‘entire’ group of delegates to the Municipal League convention were the guests of the American Civie Assoclation thls afternoon on a tour-of the city by automobile, in which membprs of the Washington committee orthe federal city pointed out the points of the permanent plan for the beautification of Washington.

Dr. Jéhn P. Briscoe telephoned police of the Tenleytown district, who frightened the man awey with a volley of six shots ‘When Policeman O. K. Stanton reached the vicinity of the lflrlmellt house the mar still was standing near the window' of Dr. Briscoe's apart- ment, and Stanton, fearing he would be unable to capture him, fired his revolver toward him; one bullet crashing through a window of the apartment of Earle Canady, first floor »f 3100 Connecticut avenue.. Report3 of the pistol shots put the man to flight. No further trace of him was found: a Rlehmond, V Dream-Stuffs BY DR. FRANK CHANE. Guesses, dreams, vague Totions, flecting glimpses and ull such ghost- timber are as valuable as clear and exact Ideas. All great deeds are made of this stuff. The mysterious cloud of half- understood ideas concentrates into the actual thing. A poem of Tennyson was once but something dimly felt; he made it con- crete. The novelist makes his flesh-and- blood characters out of fugitive vis- fons that have been peeping and lurk- ing in his mind. The bridge-buflder, the inventor, the trust-maker, the statesman and every door in like manner “glves to airy nothinge a local habitation and a name,” quite as much as does the poet. A ‘man's greatness is tested by his power to make something out of noth- ing. or out of half or quarter some- things. One who can do this s a genius He Is the person who “makes g0od." All perfectly clear ideas are second- hand. We borrow them from others who have formed them out of the formless. Only that idea is our own which we have molded out of dream- stuff and guess-stuff into a solid, un- derstandable thing. Von Huegel, in his “Mystical Ela- ment in Rellgion,” says: “Without much dim apprehensfons no clear per- ception; nothing Is more certain than this." So do not desplse your dreams, your vague, filtting visions half caught or glimpsed as they vanish, These may be the very best, the most real and original thoughts you have. It is well to jot down these evanes- cent impressions when they come to you: put some catch-word in ybur notebook that will recall them. "And then when you, have leisure for medi- tation,. when you have an hour to wait for a train, when time haugs heavy on your hands for any cause, take out your book. Call to mind the fleeting impression and try to develop it into something clear and concrete. The very best things in life come to us by the way. They are not the things we plan for and go after. but the things that come over our shoul- der_ und surprise us. No one really believes in God un- less he belfeves that the universe has something better for us than any- thing we could imagine. Give the universe a chance. Wel- come the things that come and do not pin all your happiness upon the things you go after. Remember Wordsworth: Those obstisate questionings Of wense and outward things, Fallings from us, vanishings. Blapk misgivings of a creature Soving about in worlds vot realized, High instinets before which our mortal nature Did trepuble like » gullty thing surprised.
