To Make a National Anthem.

Professor William Milligan Sloane,
a profound student of history, is dis
satisfied with THE Star-Spanged Ban
ner' as a national anthem, and he in
tends to procure for us a better song
Every good American who has tried
to sing the present national air will
wish him success. We respectfully
suggest to Professor Sloane that he
send for Teresa Carreno. the distin-
guished pianist She is the composer
Of the Venezuelan national anthem,
and that is coming pretty close to
home. A woman whose genius was
capable of making vocal the proud and
naughty spirit of the nation ruled by
President Castro should have no Sc.
rious difficulty in expressing the proud
est hopes and loftiest aspirations OF
this glorious land in its era of per-
manent policies and predestined presi-
dencies.-New York Sun.

Dutch-German Pedigree.

The pedigree of the Dutch German
branch of the Washington family
goes back to the middle of the sew
enteenth century, to James Washing
ton, brother OF General Washington S
great-grandfather, John. In 1860
James emigrated to Holland, while
John, with his brother Andrew, emf
grated in 1866 to Virginia. James
settled in Rotterdam, and married
Clara Van der Lanen, daughter of
the Burgomaster OF that port. The
youngest of his five children, a son
named Jacob, who in 1924 intermar-
ried with Catharine Maria Wynantz,
from whom this continental Wash
ington descended.
The rule that after having -four
ished for three generations a family
declines did not hold good in the
case OF the European Washingtons
The first Jacob was a justice Of the
peace, his three sons became either
civil or military officers in the service
of the government of the Neither
lands, and one of his grandsons,
Jacob, born in 1873, was made a
lieutenant-general in the Bavarian
army, was created a baron and mar
ried titled lady of Bavaria. It was
to this Bavarian family that this
young Baron de Washington be-
longed.

Washington's Example CompIete

The life Of our Washington cannot
suffer by comparison with those of
other countries who have been most
celebrated and exalted by fame. The
attributes and decorations of royalty
could only have served to eclipse the
majesty Of those virtues which made
him from being a modest citizen
more resplendent luminary. Misfor-
tune, had he lived, could hereafter
have sullied his glory only with those
superficial minds who, believing that
characters and actions are marked
by success alone, rarely deserve to en-
joy 1t. Malice could never blast his
honor, and envy made him singular
exception to her universal rule. For
himself. he had lived long enough for
life and glory. For his fellow citi-
zens, If their prayers could have been
answered, he would have been i'm
mortal. His example is now COM
plete, and it will teach wisdom and
virtue to magistrates, citizens and
men, not only in the present age, but
in all future generations, as long as
our history shall be read. - John
Adams.
