Washington an Ideal Leader.

One hundred and seventy-three years ago
George Washington was born. the speaker
pointed out. He proceeded to guide his
hearers in looking backward "along the
highway of the years to find that no man
has since appeared in this world who tow
ers SO loftily as to hide his majestic form or
shines so brightly as to eclipse the glory of
his renown" Rev.. DR.. Bristol declared that
nature could not have formed more ideal
leader and embodiment of righteous revo-
luton than was Washington. 1t was added
that as President. Washington, SO safe. eau
tious disinterested, wise and patriotic were
his administrations, became for all time the
ideal whose virtues every succeeding Presi-
dent may well have been ambitious to emu
late.
But If one element in that marvellous and
symmetrical combination the speaker, con-
tinuing. said, "of manhood more conspicu-
ously than any other gave Washington his
controlling influence and adorned his per-
sonality with immortal distinction among
men, it was that moral element which we
call character. 1t was this, rather than his
military talent or astuteness as politician,
that made him the superlative man of his
time"
toll said:
with all our greatness and enlighten-
ment. with all our wealth and resources.
with all our obligations to ourselves and to
mankind, with all our prestige and power
among the nations Of Christian civilization.
we still follow the light of Washngtons
genius. we still emulate his virtues, we still
aspire to the ideal of his excellence, we still
listen attentive and obedient to his sage ad-
vice, we still claim him our chief and
leader-the brightest star In the constella-
ton of progressive freedom. Washington
belongs to twentieth century America His
spirit animated the age. Nay, Washington
belongs not to an age, but to all time; and
while the world moves onward to its fullest
enjoyment of liberty his genius shall be
the uneclipsed and guiding light With
Brougham must we not say: The test of
the progress of mankind will be In the APP
probation of the character OF Washing

Our Associate Members.

The associate membership is growing
rapidly and already nearly fifty members
are on the roll. The idea seems to have
met with Immediate response from those
who cannot personally take an active
part in the Sunshine work, but are glad
of the opportunity to show their interest
and sympathy in the good cause. The
society hopes to raise a fund which will
enable it to broaden and extend it's work;
to be able to advance, without interest,
the rent for some struggling man or
woman to be able to send some poor
invalid south or west for new lease
of life; to help in multitude of ways the
honest but unfortunate ones with the
little financial aid that will tide them over
until a position is found for them and
enable them to make fresh start. The
society Is constantly having such de-
mands made upon it and 1t is a source
of deep regret that it cannot always give
the financial assistance as we'll as the
personal sympathy. ..... .,..
There are surely thousand j u n
readers thruout the state who could spare
one dollar a year towards creating this
fund, and think of all the lives that can
be made happier with your one dollar
and the one dollar Of others.

Augutus Thomas, playwright who

served vogue at the present time, invari-
ably shares his royalties with the per-
son who first persuaded him to take up
his profession. Many years ago, in st.
Louis, while sitting on his knee, a lit
tie girl told Mr.. Thomas that she had
just read a perfectly beautiful story in
st. Nicholas. Mr.. Thomas, very much
interested, asked her to lend him the
magazine. The story was Mrs. Frances
Hodgson Burnett's "Editha's Burg
{lar.' Mr.. Thomas dramatized 'it-or,
rather, he used the characters of the lit
tile girl and the burglar, and out Of the
situation evolved very sweet and
charming little play of his own

wholly exempt from failure. The pres

could do something to make some one

where to find some one. It was sug-

the suggestion had tried 1t and she said
the pleasantest rides she had ever taken
