Most of us are familiar with the services of George W:hhmglun‘ Thomas JefTerson and Maj. L'Enfant in | the selection of the site and the layin: out of a city designed as the seat of the Federai Government,” said Mr. Delano. “But while many now living can remember the sad appearance of ‘Washington in the nineties, the services of those who made possible the renais- sance of 1901 are perhaps not so gen- erally recognized. Owe Debt to Michigan. “It so happens that the people of the United States owe a_great debt to the State of Michigan. For it was a Sena- | tor from Michigan who, as chairman of the District committee, called in the | outstanding architects, sculptor and landscape architect of the day to ad-| vise on the state of the Federal City. !

When in 1910 President Taft ap- pointed the first members of the national Commission of Fine Arts, Mr. Moore, togother with Daniel H.

There were indeed the charming squares, circles and triangles of the original L’Enfant plan, most of which®had been preserved, but few Americans had then realized the need for comprehensive park and parkway systems. “In accepting the suggestion of the American Institute: of Architects <o make possible the preparation of a com- prehensive plan for the park system of the District of Columbia, Senator Mc- foresight. Senator McMillan was not only a man of vision. He was a man of action. As soon as he learned from the experts whom had assembled what they thought ought to be done, i.> pro- ceeded to put into effect the most im- | portant of their suggestions. “The McMillan Park Commission may be truly said to have rediscovered the L’Enfant plan of Washington. Probably the greatest service which the MeMil- lan Commission rendered was to mak public the L'Enfant plan. In the seven- ties the railroads were given gran's 1o lay tracks in the Mall. If these entire 1y legal rights of the railroads had heer permitted to continue, it would have been forever impossible to carry out the L’Enfant conception of the Mall as site of monumentak public bulldings sur trees. The studies for the redemption ¢ the Mall involved studies for the re! tion of the railroad tracks and the sta tions. It was through the combined in- fluence of Mr. Burnham, who was ar chitect of the Pennsylvania’s station at Pittsburgh, and who had made prelimi- nary studies for a station in Washington and Senator McMillan, who was in a position to represent the attitude bf Congress, that President Cassett agreed to the removal of the railroad tracks from the Mall and to accept a new site for the station. “The fight that Senator McMillan made in what was to prove the last year of his life, lLias left an indelible im- pression on Washington. The northern and southern rail entrances and exits are so arranged that grade crossings| are entirely eliminated. The narrow strip on which the elevated tracks cross Potomac Park to gain access to the Long Bridge is comparatively unobjec- tionable behind the closc-sct populars, but how would it have been if a broad phalan: of tracks now occupied Potomac Park at this point? The location and design of the Pennsylvania station are the result of the work of the McMillan Commission. It was Senator McMilian, too, who made possible the filtration plant, which has practically wiped out }hr annual death toll from typhoid ever. " Charles Moore an Associate. Closely associated with Senator Mc- Millan in all these undertakings, and surviving him now for more than a quarter of a century, in which he has constantly sought the application of the McMillan Park Plan of 1901, is another Michigan man, Charles Moore, present chairman of the National Commission on Fine Arts. In 1889 he became secre- tary to Senator McMillan, and in 1891 secreiary to the Senate Committe on the District of Columbia.

The location and design of the Lincoln Memorial forming the river end of the axis from the Capitol on the line of the Washington Monument were only achieved after much dissen- sion and difference of opinion. The re- moval of the Botanic Garden from the Mall approach to the Capitol has only been authorized in recent years. “For nearly 20 years, the National Commission of Fine Arts, composed of leading architects, sculptors and paint- ers. has protected the Federal City from | monstrosities in design of monuments | | and public buildings.

Under the rather complicated financial arrangements of the District of Columbia, however, the proposal of the Cramton bill to make use of Treasury advances, to be repaid from annual appropriations, without in- terest, comes as a sound and generous solution of a perplexing problem. “The proposal to authorize the ap- propriation of $16,000.000 for the pur chase of land to develop the Washing- | ton park system, to be repaid from an- nual appropriations in amounts ‘already | authorized by Congress; the proposal to extend the Rock Creek Park and Ana- | costia Park system into Maryland on | the basis of one-third contribution by the Federal Government and two- thirds by the State of Maryland; and the proposal to create the George | Washington Memorial Parkway from | Mount Vernon to Great Falls along| both banks of the Potomac on the basis | of one-half contribution by the Ped-‘ eral Government' and one-half from ' Maryland or Virginia, with Treasury advances to expedite both purchases, | for the first time place these desirable developments in the line of prompt re ’ alization by a plan which will un doubtedly command the approval of the Federal administrative authorities and | at the same time lay no undue burden ! on the areas which will benefit fram | the improvements. “The conception of the ‘bill is on a| grand scale, but its provisions are en-| tirely practicable, and if it becomes a! law, as it is hoped and expected, dur-/ ing the present session of Congress, | the contribution of these three Michi gan men to the Federal City and its| environs will have made possible one of the most picturesque, extensive and | useful melrcpolltln park systems in the Unl!!d States, if not in the world.” Boulevard p. 2121 N.

There's no use in isolating yourself because a lot of other people are sick with it. If you take certain simple precautions every day —and then don't wotry — the chances are you will throw off any “flu” germs you are exposed to, and keep well. We're not fecommicnding that you dose yourself with a lot of medicines, either. Just observe two common-sense health rules which can be easily followed. IRST ofall, make sure yoursystem ¥ is in first class order. Don't let it get slowed up or sluggish.

Keep them from lodging there and breed- ing and causing trouble. Physicians agree that, particularly in times of epidemic, purging by laxa- tives and cathartics is not advisable.
