Strawberries Big as Pullet Eggs.

Georgetown Times, May Z.
Legend says strawberries originated
in the Garden of Allah, in which case
Allah knew one of the delights that
Georgetownians are now tasting; nor
could the legendary garden have pro-
duced more delicious and finer condi-
toned berries than are now being
grown right here Sin our midst" The
season at its height and the berries
are at their best. Mr. Morgan got from
his farm on the Sampit road the 9TH
er day some berries that were as big
as pullet eggs, as red as a cardinals
hat and as tastely as pretty girls
lips. Seven berries on end around
the edge of a saucer filed the circle
completely. The berries were OF the
Klondike variety, apd were grown by
Mr.. Elliott on land that was wild and
sour a year and a half ago.

The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1913-02-19

Despite this temporary cloud. Wash
ington was yet held in such esteem by
the American people that he was be-
ing urged to accept third term. He
felt, however. that he had sacrificed
enough and was determined to retire
to a we'll earned repose at Mount Yer
non. 1t was at this time that he issued
his celebrated farewell address. which
was published in the Philadelphia Ad-
vertiser in September, 1876.
While this was the beginning 1t the
powerful tradition against third term
in the presidency. it is but just to say
that Washington himself made no ar
guments against a third term. He ex-
planned that his reasons for withdraw
ing were personal. He would have
taken such step earlier, but was con-
WINGED that it would have been against
public policy. Now. however. that diff
ficulty had been removed. Washington
says:
81 rejoice that the state of your con-
Germs. external as we'll as internal. no
longer renders the pursuit Of inclina-
ton incompatible with the sentiment
of duty or propriety and am persuad-
ed, whatever Partially may be retain
ed for my services. that in the pres
ent circumstances of our country you
will not disapprove Of my determina-
ton to retire"
AS though the first president had a
prophetic glimpse of the future. the
burden Of the farewell address was an
argument for union and warning
against the perils Of partisan division
and passion. In the memorable closing
paragraph he said:
."Though in reviewing the incidents
of my administration l am unconscious
of intentional error, am nevertheless
too sensible of my defects not to think
it probable that have committed
many errors. Whatever they may be,
1 ferventy beseech the Almighty to
avert or mitigate the evils to which
they may tend. l shall also carry with
me the hope that my country will new
er cease to view them with indulgence
and that, after forty-tive years Of my
life dedicated to its service with up
right zeal. the faults of incompetent
abilities will be consigned to oblivion.
as myself must soon be to the man
sions of rest
Both his country and the world have
certainly carried out this wish.

a triumphal arch, bearing this inscrip-

The first president was never given
to much speaking. His first inaugural

was delivered in New York at the very
beginning of our national life under
the constitution. and the occasion de-

than the Father of His Country was

: SILENCE IN THE RANKS!

Poor old Mayor Blankenburg, tired of telling
Philadelphia how rotten is, takes his story to
Madison, Wis.,. and blurts it out to the whole world.
Naturally, Philadelphia is indignant 1t regards the
disclosure rs an act of bad faith Mayors are elected
to boom to praise, tc make their cities so attractive
to the unknowing capital and homeseekers outside
that they simply cannot stay away.
And yet Philadelphia knows that Blankenburg is
telling the truth There are not many cities in this
country the citizens of which do not know of radical
defects in their government or administrations.
They know it so well they don't want to hear it
repeated. Presumably they do not really care. At
any rate, they find it very comforting to have things
explained away. And how they do swallow the ex-
planation!
But once in a while, nevertheless, it is good to
hear the mayor of such a tovn-the man who knows
tell q few home truths. When people know that
the truth about their city about their indifference
to its real welfare no longer be concealed, they
know it is time to stir.

was no vindicaton of the Senate that tried the cas-.

was no vindcaton of the Senate that tried the case
first.
There is good deal of reason to believe that
moral standards, to such matters as bribery, are
higher in Washington than they are at good many
State capitals. Speaker Clark was quoted recently
as declaring he did not believe there was member
OF Congress who would sell his vote, and we incline
to agree with him. Yet the difference in moral
standards between the legislatures and the Con-
gress is not So wide as that would suggest.
Congress trouble is that too many of its men,
bers come here with their votes mortgaged in ad-
vance. They don't have to be sold; the men who
cast them would not sell; but they do, in too many
instances, give pledges in advance, or represent a
liatons, that make it possible substantially to tell in
advance how they will vote on specific proposals.
There is somethin. wrong about legislative body
in which the shrewd informed observer can forecast
the probable legislative history of certain bill, at
the time it is introduced closely it is done every
day.
