Gay Shirtsv . >

With stripes of yellow, blue andgreen, and pink and purple in between,the kind of shirts we'rewearing now would jar the antlersfrom a cow. Who are the gayand giddy flirts who hand downfashions in men's shirts? Dothey wear brains front side behind.or are they merely colorblind? When I jog down the villagestreet, I wear sane shoesupon my feet; my outer garmentsall are mild, by freaks of fashionundefiled: my lid's an unassumingone, its color brown, approachingdun.

rainbow in disguise. But modestfolks feel pained and hurtwhen they behold by scieamingshirt. "Since when," they ask, "Oribald soul, have you become a

barber's pole?" "Since my goodfrau went chasing down to studyfashions in the town ; she'd rathersee me lying dead and plantedwhere the daisies spread, thanwearing garments out of date,and hence this shirt, whose huesI hate." With gaudy stripes andgorgeous bars and purple dotsand yellow stars, my shirt is cuttinglots of grass, and mules are

BUILDING GREAT MOUNDATLINCQLN MEMORIAL

Clark Howard, Landscape Architect,Here to Study Artistic Problems

Involved.

Mound building on an extensive scaleIs in active progress at the site of theLincoln memorial in West PotomacPark. The large hills, daily growingin size, eventually are to be gradedand molded into an artistic setting forthe approaches to the classic marbletemple. The large fill at the site isnecessitated hy the fact that the baseof the marble memorial is forty-fivefeet above the former level of the parkat that point. Under the approved designthat elevation is to be reachedby a series of terraces within a circulararea having a diameter of 1,000feet.The exact treatment of this great

mound has not yet been settled. Col.W. W. Harts, the engineer officer, supervisingthe construction of the memorial,has engaged the services ofClark Howard, a landscape architect ofNew York, to assist in the preparationof plans for its development.

Studying Landscape Problem.Mr. Howard has reported for duty

and is engaged in making a personalstudy of the site and its environments,including tne Arlington national cemeteryand the Washington NationalMonument. He is expected to designsuitable approaches and the si*e andcharacter of the terraces.By means of the terraces the ground

Around the base of the Lincoln memorialwill be raised to the same levelas the ground at the base of the WashingtonMonument. The basic terracewill be circular in form and about 1,000feet in diameter. How high it willbe has not been settled. On its outeredge will be planted four concentricrows of trees, leaving a plateau in thecenter probably 750 feet in diameter.In the center of that plateau will riseanother terrace probably sixteen feethigh and 500 feet in diameter. Whetherthis terrace shall rise gradually towardthe base of the memorial or whetherthere shall be other terraces of varyingheights is yet to be determined.From the main entrance of the memo-

rial to the Washington Monument willstretch a wide esplanade flanked oneach sidfc by two rows of large shadetrees, probably English elms, forminga beautiful vista between the structures.

Two Plans of Treatment.Two general plans of treatment are

under consideration for the greatmound on which the memorial will belocated. One of these, calling for a

series of terraces of large area, willrequire a fill of about one million cubicyards. The other plan, with terracesof smaller area, will require the use ofabout three hundred and fifty thousandcubic yards of additional material forgrading.

It is estimated that about one hundredand seventy thousand cubic yardsof material already have been depositednear the site of the memorial. Anadditional supply of about one hundredand fifty thousand cubic yards will beprocured from the excavation beingmade for the foundations for the buildingfor the Department of the Interiorin the square bounded by 18th and 19thand E and F streets. By special arrangementwith the various departmentsconcerned, the material from theInterior Department site is beingtransported to the Lincoln memorialsite over an improvised railway. Thepermit for laying that railway on theintervening streets and into the parkrequires that the material shall be deliveredand the tracks removed withina period of three months.

Some fine fishing is in store for weekendanglers on the upper Potomac andeven about Georgetown in the Littleriver, unless there is more rain, accordingto fishermen up there."The water is clearing finely," said

Will Reynolds, "and I look for some

good catches."A large string of big-mouth bass was

caught in the Little river Monday byan angler who refused to disclose hisidentity, according to Mr. Reynolds.Several other fishermen were in theLittle river Sunday and succeeded in

making good catches.

"The Monster," as it has been knownto fishermen in the vicinity of Senecafor several years, and which had succeededin evading the efforts of manypersons to capture it until last Friday,is a snapping turtle, or was until itwas cooked. Albert Reynolds ofGeorgetown captured it. When weighedthe turtle tipped the scales at seventeenand a quarter pounds.Will Reynolds, Albert Reynolds, WilliamWhite and Frank Hayes went to

Seneca last week in a launch, going upthe Chesapeake and Ohio canal. Theyspent most of their time in what isknown as the basin at Seneca. The firstday the fishermen tried their luck AlbertReynolds felt a hard tug at hisline and called Frank Hayes, who was

in the boat with him, for assistance.After half an hour's work, in whichpole hooks and nets were used, the"monster" was pulled into the boat..During the trip three other turtles

were landed, which, with the "mon"-" "'V.o/j a tntol of thirtv nounds.SLCI, WCI(UCU u VV..U. « ^

A turtle soup feast was participated inlast Tuesday by the fishermen and theirfriends. Twenty-five bass, some ofwhich were of the small-mouth variety,were landed also.

Will Dover, Edgar Shaw, ErnestLeighton, Clarence Raymond, FrankWells, Hugh Dawson and Cliff Crockerreturned Tuesday morning from a tripto Colonial Beach. The members ofthe party, who were on the fishinggrounds near the river resort for fourdays, brought home a report of some

fine catches. On the first day the countwas twenty-six trout, two floundersand eighteen perch. "The three otherdays," said Ernest Leighton, "we dideven better."

Capt. Sims of No. 18 engine company,Arthur S. Witcomb of the United StatesMarine Band, John H. Gates, jr., of thecity post office and Thomas Harris visitedRock Point, Md., recently and afterfishing from 5:30 o'clock in the morninguntil 4 o'clock in the afternoon returnedto the city with 268 large whiteperch, fourteen trout, eight tailors andeleven rockflsh.Mr. Gates said the sport was so good

that it was a common event to pull intwo fish at a time.

Jess Dorsey, Will Edwards, Abe Rein-hart and Cleveland Wentworth recentlyspent seven days on a fishing tripto the lower Potomac. They returnedhome Monday and brought with thema story of big catcheB. To show thatthey had luck the anglers broughtwith them about half a barrel of fish,which they had salted down for consumptionduring the fall and wintermonths."We certainly struck them right,"

said Edwards. "Every day we fishedthe results were fine strings. We werenot the only ones, neither, who gotresults. There were several otherparties who were on the fishinggrounds near us, and they also madegood catches."

A fishing trip to Ocean City, Md., Isbeing planned by William Jackson. Hehas communicated with several of hisfriends, and already Charles Dorsey,Cochran Wells, Howard Malone, QlennStevens and Frank Herman have signl-fled their intention of becoming "mem-bers." The fishermen are expected toleave Washington tomorrow, and willremain at the resort for a week. "Ifwe have any kind of luck," said Wells,"we probably will make a longerstay."

William Fredericks, John B. Smith,Edward Tracy, Walter Evans. ElmerEvans and George Welch spent theweek end at Enfield, Md.. In the vicinityof the place where HowardBrooks hooked a big tailor recently.and they were rewarded by a largecatch of flsh there Sunday. In thestring they brought to Washingtonwere fourteen tailors, the largest ofwhich weighed two and a half pounds;ten perch and about twenty-five trout.Two flounders, which also were landed,were presented to a resident of EnHeld.The members of the party arecontemplating a similar trip In thenear future.Frank Madlgan, Howard Brooks andJohn Hurley left Friday night for a

three-day trip to Solomons Island,where they heard flsh were bitingfreely.F. B. Crovo, Jr., and D. P. Collins

Bpent Sunday at Rock Point and whenthey returned to Washington that nighthad a string of forty flsh with them.Most of the ones they landed were ofgood size.

Mr. and Mrs. B. W. Chlswell fished atRock Point several days ago withgreat success, landing a number oflarge trout and perch.E. P. Hazelton, B. L. Wiseman, Eddie

Wissman, H. L. Dennlson and FrankjPickling all made good catches therelast Sunday. L. A. Barr and L. StewartBarr, who flshed for the first timeat Rock Point, were among the suecessfulanglers.The finest blueflsh that has been

caugnt ai mock Point this season waslanded recently by Billy Withers andWalter Schnlder.

Having established himself as theleading fisherman of the season at EnHeld,Md.f Howard Brooks was not satisfiedand decided to go to Rock Pointand "show" anglers there how fishought to be caught^ "He Is now theking of fishermen at Rock Point." saidJohn Hurley.Hurley declared that no fisherman at

the resort has done as good anglingthis season as has Brooks. The twofishermen were out on the river SunHay.When they returned at noonthere were eighteen trout, thirty perchand three tailors on their string."Brooks got the majority of them."aid Hurley. "Wo went out In the

afternoon and he again got the majorityof them. He brought in fourtailors and three trout.The flsh which were caught in the

morning had been cleaned and placedon ice for Hurley to bring back toWashington. In the hurry to get awayin the evening Brooks grabbed up aDackasre of fish and eave them to hisfellow fisherman. When Hurley arrivedhere he discovered that he hadfish belonging to some one else andalso that they had not been cleaned.

"I heard from Brobks," he said, "andhe told me the other fellow let out ahowl when he found some one had carriedoff his string. He ought to havebeen sattisfied, as the fish left therewere all cleaned and were more thanhe lost."

A successful fishing trip to NorthChesapeake Reach was made Sunday byMedical Director Green of the UnitedStates Navy ami D. Hinckley Lyman ofthis city. The anglers got an earlystart Sunday morning and soon reachedthe fishing grounds. When they returnedto shore their string contained176 trout, spots and crockers. One ofthe trout weighed 2% pounds.Mr. Hinckley said that fishing at the

resort this month and next promises tobe exceptionally good.More than 128 fish were landed by

four Washingtonrans on a trip to RockPoint, Thursday. The string includeda number of large trout, rock, perchand tailors. The party went to thefishing shore in an automobile andwere out on the water early in themorning.Those In the party were Charles G.
