OUR CAPITOL?ONE OF
Cepitol!
we picture the Capitol
ef the
la late
entrance? Or
to the tall, stal
wart statute of George Washington,
the father of
on a lovely
by the inn fence? Over on
the north skie the driveway and the
plot of azaleas, which add a cheery
part of the year, would be
Along with all these other things of
beauty, would go the stately
trees, which squirrel* enjoy frisking
up and down so much.
Nor would there be modi room left
for the mothers and children and
paeaeibys who coma to feed the squir
rels and pigeons, or just to rest and
enjoy the beauty of the Square.
The Doric architecture is recognis
ed by experts as a splendid
of that particular Grecian period; it
is so outstanding that the moat casual
visitor to the Capitol goes away with
his sense of beauty enriched. In
Texas, so we are told, the legislature
at one time voted to have their Capi
tol painted. When the next legisla
ture convened the painting was in
complete and this body decided not to
spend any more money for the proj
ect. The Texans realized when the
job was incomplete how utterly fool
ish titey were to have allowed a high
pressure salesman to talk them into
such a thing.
If the wings were added to our
Capitol (and we hope they will not
be) later on we Tar Heels would
reach the same conclusion as the Tex
ans did Our forefathers handed tMs
structure down to na through the
yean untouched, and we should hand
it on to our children the same way.
Aa for instslttqgs esculators or
elevators, if the legislators are too
lazy to walk up the steps, they
shouldn't be representing us. One
lady pointed out that children would
find esculators a great source of
amusement, because they would be
the only ones in Raleigh.
If there is a need for more office
space and spending of some of the
accumulated revenue, why net erect
a new building on Edenton street,
facing the square? -fi
Only a few buildings are surround
ed by anch weH kept and beautifully
proportioned grounds. Long may the.
Capitol and its grounds stay aa they
