hundred aud fifty years ago han it Is
now. Here Washington was gestryman
in the church. Here he fe in with
the British officers who were to be his
companions in arms in his Pc lnsylvania
campaigns. Washington as Vir-
ginian as were his father, is grand
father and his great grand father be-
fore him.
Later it was in Alexandria that Col.
Ellsworth was killed, when IN May
morning in 1861 the Union forces made
their move to occupy the town and cut
of the possibility of rebel attack from
this direction. The death of Ellsworth
was almost as momentous an epoch in
the rebellion as the attack on Fort
Sumpter, for it showed that bloodshed
was one of the factors of war.
The fall of the brave zouaye officer
aroused the nation. Troops were hur-
ried across the Long Bridge, and the
country up and down the Potomac for
thirty miles was fortified with line after
line of defenses, and the locality made
famous by the long years of association
with Washington, and which had been
foremost in overthrowing the French in
America and in gaining freedom from
the British domination was one factor
in the greatest war ever fought With
in few miles of Alexandria are the
battlefelds OF Bull Run, Gainesville,
Drainesville and others, while farther
South come the Wilderness, Chancel-
lorsville, Fredericksburg and all of the
Virginia peninsula. Wars have made
history from time immemorial, and as
Virginia-the Oldest of the States-has
been in nearly everything big enough
to be called war in the United States,
so Virginia has contributed all of her
share in making not only the history of
the country but in making the country
itself.
1t is folly to go abroad to study the
history of nations until our own country
has been thoroughly traversed for in
no way is the old world more interesting.
No other country can show such great
development, nor can any other show
such an humble beginning. That we
have packed our history into a space of
three centuries while Europe cover ten
times that many is of no consequences
We have here the whole story just as
completely and with infinitely greater
results And lot of it is visible at
the end of the Long Bridge.

Sterling, vs.. Great Bend.

The Great Bend and Sterling High
School foot ball teams, played an ex-
cePtionally good game, at. the Fair
grounds last Saturday before a SMALL
audience. The Great Bend boys out
played their opponents at every stage
OF the game, and were it not for wet
grounds it would have been. a one
sided affair. The only sensational
plays were made by Merett and
Strong of Great Bend. The former
made 2Uyard run on tumble and
the latter making Is yard run for
touch down. We did not get credit
for touch down however as the ref,
cree thought the ball had been car.
ried out Of bounds. =.
The Great Bend boys played great
ball, and succeeded in keepingthe ball
in Sterling's territory throughout the
game. Sterling advanced the ball
only II yards during the game and
our boys advanced it at least l2O
YARDS. =
The features Of the game were the
hard line plunges by Great Bend. and
successful punting by Sterling. The
final score was Great Bend 0 Sterling
