and never told lie. What great statesman of today never told lie i! It was Washington who led the pat riots during the revolution and lick ed the British and thus made the U. s. free and hilarius wich it has been ever since. Washington was man of stern purpus and unflinchin- courage. He crost the Delaware River on a dark night when the River was full of ice. follered by Simon Le Gree and the blood hounds and attackted the Hessians statshioned at Trenton, c. Wash ington was the first Presideht of the U. S. and could havebeen king if he had of wanted the office. but Geo. says mo, would rather not be king than president" -
 When Washington and his army passed the winter at Valley Forge it was harder winter than we have ever had in Bingville. His soldiers hadent no shoes to wear and liked to of froze to deth. They murmured and repined good deal, but George :heered them up by telling them that when next summer come they wouldent need no shoes-thats the kind of man he was. If it hadent been for George Washington, this country would of went to the dogs in them days-it is owing to him that you as residents of Bingville enjoys the rights and liberty and sufferege and free speech and lot more similar luxshuries. Therefor it behoofs every citizen of Bingville to know who Washington was and to reveer him and emulate him as a good example to foller. &
 P. S.-this editorial is little mite longer than we intended it should be when we started to write it but af- ter we got warmed up to the sub. feet, we couldent seem to stop. Be

 day comes only once a year, how

The Leading Paper of the County
Brish.-sressy-Bellieose-Bustling

Being as Feb. s2d is the birthday |of George Washington, we consider lit appropriate and fitting that the Bingville Bugle should not pass Tightly over this great mans birth |day without no comment and for |that reason we take our editorial pen in hand to pay our respeckts to Gen. George Washington.
 George Washington is the gentle man who adopted this country and ackted as a father to it when the lcountry was young and helpless and nobody else volunteered to ackt in the capacity of its parents. We should of stated at the beginnin that George has been dead for 10 these many years. We make this state Iment as a matter of fackt and as a matter of news for the benefit of many of our respeckted citizens who Iare ignorant concernin the histry of lthis country. It is ridicklus to think Ithat a person can grow up to be a Iman in this age and genratshion without ever hearing of George Washington or even knowing he is Ided. Yet such is the case, and we have awful example of it right lhere in our midst. t.
 | Tother day we happened to drop lin to Hen Weathersbys store to pur- lchase a package of smoking tobac- Icer on kredit and casually remarked lthat Washingtons birthday would soon be here. We took occashion to Iremark that it was too bad George
 was ded being as in our opinion he Twas the greatest man that ever lived.
 Hank Dewberry who was setting lby the stove lisening to the conver-
 satshion spoke up and asked when Ithe gent we referred to had been took off and did he die suddenly.
 We told Hank with sheer oi Icontempt that George Washington , had been ded over hundred year:
 and then Hank said he dident see Inc occashion to make fuss over man who had been ded that long
 and besides he dident think this
 feller Washington could of amour, Ited to much when he was alive be ling as Hank had never heard oi Ihim. All of wich goes to show how Ignorant some people is. To oul Ishame and disgust Hank Dewberry is not the only person in Bingville
 who never heard of George Wash Iineton. It is for the benefit of sucf
 that we give a few brief fackts con
 cernin this great man.
 Washington was born in Virginy wherever that-is, of poor but provo
 parents. He was a great statesman
