Tuesday afternoon J. ID. Denison, Esq,
gave half hour talk on Washington be-
fore the members OF the High school. He
said he would endeavor to draw lessons OF
character from Washington's career with
out going into the details of his life.
Among other things he said: There are
three things that show themselves In his
| life-self control, patience and persist
ence, all uniting To make the character
istics of an American citizen. His SELF
control enabled him to leave unanswered
Misrepresentation and misunderstood
! irgs, and make no effort to withstand at
/ tempts to GUST him as COMMANDMENTS
chief. His patience was Remarkable I'M
der he strain OF sush disheartenlng con
ditions and the added care of the army.
| His persistence, slthougn yielding fully
to the then Congress as his superior,
never permitted him to deviate from that
general line OF grand tactics That be
seemed to have marked out tor himself.
but he held on, through good and Ill re-
port, until his opponents were compelled
TO see the righteousness OF his position
These three characteristics are essential To
| good citizenship. An American citizen
stands hig her than any other on earth,
/ believe. When you come To take upon
yourself the care OF your lite and the bur
den of citizenship, with these three
things you will be able TO stand quietly
until sucn time as the nation calls for
your service, when you will be ready, still
quietly but earnestly, to give foil measure
Of service required, even to laying down
your life and so giving the last great
| proof OF your American citizenship.
