FRIDAY, FEB. 22, 1924 GEORGE WASHINGTON ' V A contemporary writer who saw Washington in 1778 described him as, "Remarkably tall, foil six feet, ereet and well proportioned. The strength and proportion of his joints and mus cles appear to be commensurate with the preeminent powers of his mind. The serenity of his countenance and majestic gracefulness of his deport ment impart a strong impression of that dignity and granlenr which are his pecuiar characteristics, and no one can stand in. his presence without feeling the ascendency of his mind, and associating with his countenance the idea of wisdom, philanthropy, magnanimity and patriotism.'' Green, an English writer said, "No 1 nobler figure ever stood in the fore-| front of a nation's life." Thackeray, English poet and historian, said, "Here indeed is a character to admire and revere; a life without a stain and a flame without a flaw." His self-control, his keen sympathy, his quiet and unassuming manner, his moral and physical courage, his unswerving integrity, his accurate judgment of men and measures, his unselfish devotion to his country, Es prompt recognition of meritorious service of his colleagues, his magnan imity toward his enemies, his hopeful ness in disaster, his patience in wait ing, his skill in retreat, his resource fulness in attack, his calmness in vietgry, his prudence and justice in thie exercise of authority, his serenHy in t&Tface of criticism and treachery, and his vigilance at all times . are among the traits which make him the most conspkious character in Ameri can history." n TO LAND OF PROMISE.

The English have brains enough to pay well men to whom they give im portant jobs. This makes it unneces sary for oil companies or others to pay them after they LEAVE office? for services rendered while IN of fice. Good news is that General Motors, big automobile making company, broke all records last year, selling $698,$698,000,000 worth - of cars. Many Americans are getting fresh air that didnt use to get it, pins.the health that comes from fresh air. ??? v Nevada killed Gee Jon, Chinese tong murderer with hydrocyanic gas. Mr. Jon, according to guards, "wept a little as he was placed in the chair." His tears seemed to ask, "Why pick on me?" - Doctors say death was painless, but they dont know. Gee Jon lived six minutes after he. began breath ing the deadly gas. Where in he now? Somewhere in spake telling Confucius about it? If government insists on killing it should kill as savages usually do, choking with a rope, cutting off the head or in some other savage fash . ? - : ion. Science and scientists should not be disgraced in the operation. Ten thousand years hence this will be spo ken of as an age that used to hang, shoot, asphyxiate, kill with electric ity and then foolishly expect crim inals, with the undeveloped minds of children, NOT'to imitate a murder ous example set by government it self.
