Thomas Jefferson, third President of tha
United States, waa born In Virginia. April IS,
1T4I. Yesterday waa the 172nd anniversary oi
his birth. 1
In titsrature he ia remembered by hia "Auto
biography," "Notes on Virginia," and his "Cor
respondsnee." In hia puMic work hla fame ia
secure becaase he wrote the Declaration of In
dependence, secured tha adoption of the first
ten amendmehts6"lkeTJ6iisiriu(Ton guarantee
ing personal liberty, the establishment of the
University of Virginia, hla influence aa Presi
dent for a nation based 'on security and free
dom, aad tha opening of Ohio and, tha acquisi
tion of Louisiana, which constituted our first
national expansion.
Edward Everett said of him: "On Jefferson
rests tha imperishable renown of having panned
tha Declaration of independence, to have been
the instrument of expressing in one brief, de
cisive act tha consecrated will and resolution
of a whole family of fltatea" ,
According to Emerson, "the degree of a
mana success Is proportionate to his determi
nation." but there is something beyond this in
tha reason for aettlng apart the life of Jefferson
from the multitude ef lesser lives. The highest
attribute of human character is creative ability,
and Jefferson not only possessed it but he used

waa by aoma people accounted a dreamer, a
visionary, aad unsafe , .
While the Constitution waa being reconstruc
ted from ths leas strong and more democratic
Artiolea ef Confederation. Jefferson waa minis
ter te France, 17t te 171. He knew little of
the making of the document because of tha lack
of postal communication, 'of ths secrecy which
the deliberations were held, and of tha French
revolution in which he was keealy interested. -

In his confession ot political faith hs wrote:
I wish aa inviolable preservation ef our pres
ent federal constitution according 4j the true
ssnse la Whin it waa adopted by tha States. 1
