WILL OBSERVE THE DAYS.
Schools to Pay Tribute to Lincoln and
Washington.

From Tuesdays Daily.
State Superintendent of Public In
struction Olson has issued a circular let
ter to the superintendents and teachers
of the state. calling attention to the near
approach of Washington and Lincoln's
birthdays and recommending that these
days be observed in the schools by ap.
propriate exercises.
Superintendents and Teachers: The
state department wishes at this time to
remind You of the approaching ami
versaries of the birth of the two great
Americans whose names are given above.
Inc annual recurrence of these days
serves as a splendid opportunity to i'm
press on the minds OF your pupils, anew,
lessons of patriotism which the lives
of these men nobly exemplify.
The twelfth and twenty second days
of February have been set apart by our
legislature as legal holidays. This, we
believe, is eminently proper, not only as
Il tribute to the memory of these great
men, but as a mark of appreciation of
the everlasting value of the services rem
dered by them to this country when its
need was the greatest.
Washington was the great soldier,
who after securing independence and
freedom for his country, his patriotic
craftsmanship established law and order
among the people and gave to the states
national character which will endure
while civilization lasts.
The great services rendered by Abra-
ham Lincoln to this country were not on
,-e battlefield, but as great civilian
at the head of a government almost
overthrown by internal strife.
Possibly another man might have done
the work of Lincoln, but this does not
render less valuable his great and pat
riotic deeds.
This department recommends that on
the anniversaries above mentioned per-
iod of each be set aside for the purpose
of reviewing the lives of these great men
and teaching the lesson of good citi-
zenship.
The lives of Washington and Lincoln
teach us that honesty is the greatest
test of good citizenship.
Impress on the minds of our boys
and girls the value of high ideals, and
that the mainstay of our country is the
honest citizen who in public or private
life, is not afraid to do his full duty.
