MARTHA
WASHINGTON

Martha Washington would not have
been fitted for q place in history ms
the first lady Of the republic" IL she
had not possessed a mind Of her own.
and been capable OF commanding her
household, and occasionally her hus-
band. 1t is recorded by Miss Bremen
that n guest at Mount Vernon over
heard her distinguished hostess Civ
ing George a piece Of her mind after
they had retired for the night. lie
listened in profound silence. and
when she had said her say. he an.
swcred pleasantly:
Now, good sleep 10 You. my dear"
The generals pet name for his
wife was Patsy. That she made him
happy In his domestic relations at
all times is gathered from his let
tiers and diary. In which he often al
ludes to his domestic felicity"
Martha Washington was Of plump
figure. full of grace. sprightliness,
and with an aristocratic bearing that
was due TO generations OF refined and
elegant prosperity. The world with
held from her no good thing; she
was OF n pure aud innocent mind.
and N there was som haughtincss
In her nature, II never dcgcncratcd

unhesitating devotion TO right and that
consistency which could stand any trial
were precisely the qualities needed in
his place and enabled him eventually
10 wrest victory from what often
seemed impending ruin.

There Is a tendency In both literature
and history. says the Chicago Daily
News, TO make mythical heroes of
great men, to place them upon a Sc
rene Olympus and worship them as gods
OF our own making. This tendency has
become SO strong in the case of Wash
ington that probably no American is
unbiased by its influence.
Yet, after all. 1, is the real man, not
The myth, which i important to us.
