school days his master gave him a
book that he kept all his life. It was

for conduct and manners, how to
write letters" and-what most pleased
the boy-"methods for surveying land
by Gunter's rule. and all manner Of
problems in arithmetic and mathe-
mates, as well as methods of writ

Washington was then about four
teen years old. but young though he
was, the practical side of his nature
was awakened by the book, which es-

systematically and economically, for
which he was generally respected
and sometimes laughed at.
