Pretty Institution Building, Occupying a Square, Is| Surrounded by Ample Grounds Where Stu- dents May Indulge Any Form of Athletic 2nd of the world. All out for the sraveyard and Eastern High So it pleases a facetious con- ductor on a Washington street car line to announce to a_carload of pupils their arrival at Fifteenth and East Capitol streets. His opinion is fr quently echoed in the question of new- comers to the school, “Why on earth did they put Eastern way out here?" And, indeed, one trudging for the first time the long blocks from the car barn to the school feels that he is travel- ing to the other end of nowhere. If one visits the school, however, he soon perceives a number of advan- tages in its remote situation. For one thing, there is the supreme advantage n extensive tract of land. The Fastern High School, with its grounds, oceup four large city squares, ex- tending from East Capitol to B street | north, and from Sev eenth to Nine- | teenth streets east. Of these, only one | square is used for the building itself. | This leaves an abundance of land for | athletic fields and gardens. Stadium Generously Planned. On the square north of the building there is a generously planned stadium, [ participating. The with foot ball field, base ball dlamond | and running track, surrounded by | seats for spectators. To the east of | this lie eight tennis courts, and south | | of these are a hockey field and an out- door court for basket ball. Besides all these there is an ample greenhouse and garden. The landscape garden- ing about the building and the gar- den itselt are things of beauty. | Within the past two years a miracle | has been wrought in’ this faraway | corner of the District. Where but a few years ago there were rough,| muddy banks, very uneven in surface, | one finds now, crowning a gentle elev tion, a great, modern building, set « by sloping green lawns which are | adorned by a variety of fine trees and tlowering plants. From the time the | first yellow daffodil trumpets the com- | ng of April to these crisp November | day the hedges of Japanese | barberry are brilliant with changing | foliage ‘and scarlet berries there is always some note of color to be seen. n Has Own Greenhouse. Eastern holds the distinction of be- ing the first high school in Washing- ton to be provided with its own green- house and garden. The greenhouse | supplies plants for laboratory study, | and it also shows, for the biology | classes, the constant interrelation of | inimals and plants. There are two | main_gardens—one of native plants Just back of the greenhouse and an. | other, larger and more formal, to the front and south. The latter is di- vided into four smaller gardens, out- |plants that lined with box and evergreen privet. Each of these has a central green. sward surrounded by a border of per- ennials. Two of the small re planted entirely withs roses stone walks separite the g meet in the center at a charming sun dial of Tennessee marble and bronze, designed by Miss Kathryn Harris, which memnmorial to A.

Garden on High Terrace. Eastern's garden is on a high ter- race. from which the land falls away to the east, with . of the winding Anacostia River and the wooded hills beyond, now in the glory of their Autumn cslors. The vistas of sky and water and wooded hiliside lend special delight to this den. And, in passing, it may be said that this view of the open coun. try, so unusual in a city school, s another decided advantage of East. ern’s remote location. In all this magic transformation of n rough expanse of muddy common into the present attractive gardens Miss Lewanna Wilkins, the head of the department of biology of the stern High School, has received in. uable assistance from B. Y. Morri. irist of the Departme Agriculture, who gested the plans for the landseca zarden and from O. B. Fitts, aiao of tre B partment of Agriculture, who lirected the planting of the base ball diamond in creeping bent grass that is expected to form an enduring turf. Visitors Made Weicome.
