George Washington's Poetry.

At the age Of fifteen, like many
another school-boy, Washington fell
in love. The man who was destined
to be the Commander of the Revo-
lutionary Army wandered through
the shaded groves of Mount Vernon
composing verses, which from a crit
ical standpoint were very bad.
Scraps of verse were mingled with
notes of surveys, and i~nterspersed
with the accounts which that meth
odical statesman kept from his
school-days until he died.
In the archives at the Capitol, on
a yellowed page, in Washington's
own handwriting, these lines are still
to be read:
Oh Ye Gods, why should my Poor
Resistless Heart
Stand to oppose thy might and
Power,
Az hdSG " Oup1u 1CdCh
er'd Dart,
And now lays Bleeding every
Hour
For her that's Pityless of my grief
and Woes,
And will not on me Pity take.

ate Foes,
And with gladness never wish to

In deluding sleepings let my EyelidS

In a soft lulling sleep and gentle
repese

Oh, yet we trust that somehow good

To pangs of nature, sins of will,
Defects of doubt, and taints of

That nothing walks with aimless

That not a worm is cloven in vain;
That not a moth with vain desire

Behold, we know not anything;
I can but trust that good shall fall

And every winter change to spring.

Dor Day to the Youths Companion,
and by way of encouragement. this
paper sent the school a set of his
torical pictures and a handsome
United States flag. What a happy
time that was!
"The five pictures we're neatly
framed and glazed though the efforts
of five little girls, and do brighten
the walls so much. Each little tot
was allowed to choose the picture
she wanted to frame, and her name
and the date were written across the
back. This gladdened their little
hearts and was, at the same time, an
object lesson showing that efforts
bring results.
"About this time I interested the
large girls in buying a carpet to
cover an unsightly rostrum. They
were instructed not to take more
than five cents from any one, but
that that one might be visited by
each of them in turn. The money
came right in, and the carpet was

Water for the school (88 children)
had to be brought a long distance.
So I borrowed a buggy and mule and
drove round the country soliciting
subscriptions to dig a well. Some
promised cash and others agreed to
haul stones for the wall. One man
said that he would make up any de-

"The well has not been digged,
however, because a digger could not

secured, and the work will COM

left a large square made by the angle
of two rooms, in part. Most of the
flowers are set here. My friendly

HOW ONE TEACHER BEAUTIFIED
A COUNTRY SCHOOL HOUSE.
A Letter That Tells an Intensely Inter
esting and Profitable Story.

The following letter, dated April
q, 1908, was written to Miss Edith
I. Register, of. Raleigh, North Caro-.
lima, by a Wake County teacher
Miss Register is president of the
Wake County Woman's Association
for the Promotion of Better School
Houses. The letter as read at the
meeting of the State Association
held in Greensboro, May 9Th, is as
follows:
"When I took charge of the Eagle
Rock school in September last ]
found a house in the midst of a large
yard grown up in briers, weeds, and
broom sedge. Just in front of the
door was a road made by drivers
taking a short cut from one public
road to another.
"The interior of the house was nc
more inviting, containing only desks
and two small blackboards, the floors
and walls being much discolored.
had to begin with small things.
found two nice, large calendars, and
hung one in each room. I also told
the trustees that three more black.
boards we're needed, and these they
willingly gave.
"Then I learned that one of the
trustees had a large map of the
United States. I went after this
map and got it. Indeed, he lent il
with pleasure when / told how much
it was needed. Shortly after this
the County Superintendent visited
the school, and I asked for a globe
to be paid for by the county. He re
piled that it would be a pleasure tt
present the school with one, which h'
did. It has been of great service.
"But the yard gave me the hor
rors I-Iaid the case before The
children and called upon them fol
help toward a new order of things
Then I appointed December 13 al
work day on the yard, and sent re
quests to several patrons to be Their,
on that day, and in the notes speci
fed the tools each should bring.
"When I drove up with my Wagon
load of tools and workmen on thu
18th there were waiting for me
strong force of hands and eigh
horses and mules. They plowed, anC
chopped and dug, and narrowed, anC
laid off walks, and when we lief
things were marvelously changed.
"The following Friday was ap
pointed Arbor Day, and all the PEG
pie of the community, whethe
patrons or not, were invited to bring
trees. Nature recognized her friends
and gave a lovely day, and the peopl
came. The children rendered som
appropriate selections. Miss Roy
ster followed with~an address, an,
then we went out and planted tn
trees. There were forty-seven plant
