There is lesson for all men in the
pot race that was run by Grand
Army veterans at the Washington
American League base ball grounds.
Each OF the runners was over sew
enty years old. and one of them ran
three miles, defeating three contest
ants each of whom ran one mile.
In the news account of the event it
was said that "A large crowd wit
oessed the event, and there was some
surprise expressed at the stamina
which the runners displayed, and this
was particularly true of the winner.

or taking a deep BREATH"
The reporter was exceedingly con-
servative in saying that there was
some surprise expressed at the stam-
ina which the runners displayed. That
men of so many years can run mile
in good form is exceedingly unusual.

Nurseries of Patriotism.

The table published in Fridays S
Star giving the strength in member
ship and property values of the Grand
Army of the Republic found many
sppreciative readers. All, indeed,
who read it must have had pleasure
in the figures and the suggestions
they carried.
The total posts are 5A5o; total
membership. 1918; total value OF
property, $2,44S.oe6.74
Each one of these posts is, IN q
way, a nursery of patriotism. Those
who gather there are. it is true, past
the fighting age. They have fought
the good fight and kept the faith.
They still keep the faith. And there
in is their present great service to the

There is also a lighter touch to
these meetings and associations OF
infinite benefit to the participants.
They keep alive old friendships. They
promote good feeling. They bright
en- many lives that otherwise would
want in that particular. 1t would not
be easy to estimate how many old
men, grown Indifferent to the newer
things. hold tenaciously to the memo

and enjoy them again and again in
the company of those with whom
they once were young.
Likewise are these posts the pre-
servers of songs and stories choice
in their day, and wearing we'll when
we'll sung or told at this day. War is
a solemn business. but it begets both
wit and fiumor, and develops many
an accomplished story-teller.
A popular story in Grand Army
circles is that of captain attending

Loyal Legion post which he had join

The young member held back. He
greatly enjoyed the stories of others,

was noticed, and there was doubt as
to whether it proceeded from an in
ability to spin a yarn, or sort of
conscience against exaggeration. FL

The average young man does not
think wisely of his physical we'll
being and the man of middle age lets
himself 60 to seed too early. Cor
rect living and exercise in the open
air well up TO ones physical capacity
for exercise should be the rule, but
it is the exception. The veteran who
ran three miles and the three old men
who ran one mile have kept them
selves in condition They have kept
themselves young. A man who can
run mile, though he is seventy years
old, cannot have lost the zest for liv-
ing. A man whose heart, lungs and
arteries are young enough for such
a test IS young man. These elderly
youths probably look forward to din
ner or supper with the happy expec-
tation of boys. A peach or an apple
no doubt tastes as sweet and juicy to
them as it did sixty years ago. Spring
is as fresh and green to them, the au-
tumn leaves are as red and yellow,
the skies as blue, the sunsets as
golden and the running brooks as
merry to these old men now as when
they were boys. A. man who can run

Wooded Heights of the Potomac.

The execution of the plan for util.
izing the power of the Potomac rive,
will involve great changes in the
river above Washington, and in con-
nection with the important work pro-
posed is project which might also
be given consideration. The matter
which has often been put forward in
dependently and urged on its own
merits, has to do with the acquisition
for permanent public benefit of the
wooded hills bordering the upper
river, which have generally come to
be called the palisades of the Poto-
mac.
1t was recently announced in the
news that a committee representing
forestry associations and various
commercial organizations visited the
Secretary of Agriculture for the pur-
pose of presenting facts and argu-
ments as to why the Weeks law appro-
priation for the purchase of federal
forest reserves on navigable streams
and cooperation with the states in
protecting the forests from fires
should be renewed. Within view OF
the dome of the Capitol are fair op-
portunities for the conservation and
development of forest lands and the
conservation of the scenery of the
Potomac. The wooded ridges rising
above the river and the picturesque
ravines that have been worn through
them have been adopted by many
thousands of Washingtonians as a
national park and playground. The
land for the most part is wild and is
only capable of producing small reve-
nue to its proprietors. Its value is
based mainly on the hope that some
day it will be in request as villa sites.
The taking over of many private
holdings in Rock Creek valley and
the conversion of them into a ma
tional park will prove a wise invest
ment. and the value of that national
park will enhance as the city closes
in on the valley and street car lines
are extended or readjusted to render
it more accessible to greater num-
bers OF. people.
The preservation of a liberal strip
of the highlands bordering the Poto-
mac between Washington and Great
Falls would admirably fit in with the
plan for the conversion of the river
INTO power stream.

Memorial Trees.

Washington is developing sacred
groves of memorial trees. Two Eng
lish elms were planted by the
Womsn's Relief Corps at the Lin
coin memorial with fitting ceremonies.
but as the terrace around the me-
mortal must be graded the trees were
temporarily set out and later will be
transplanted to spots which were
dedicated by the G. A. R. and the
w. R. c. When these trees shall be
permanently planted their history
will be indicated by appropriately in
scribed bronze tablets.
There are many memorial trees in
Washington, especially in the Botanic
Garden, and the fashion Of setting
out oaks and eims in memory Of per-
sons and events seems to be growing.

So far there is no single authentic
and systematic record of memorial
trees in Washington, the facts being
generally a matter of memory with
number of men, and in some cases
a matter of secondhand memory or
hearsay.
Perhaps after a while it may be
necessary to organize local anti
quarians into a committee on the
marking of memorial trees, or it may
be that this important and agreeable
work will be taken over by the COM
mittee on the marking of historic
sites.

Georgia and Gov. Slaton.

The Frank case is again under dis
cussion in Georgia, this time in con-
nection with the continued absence
from the state of former Gov. Sla-
ton, who commuted Franks sentence
to imprisonment for life.
Gov. Slaton, it will be remember
ed, was most severely denounced for
his action, and during the last few
days of his official term was under
armed protection. His life was
threatened. Soon after leaving Office
he left the state, and he is still abb
sent. He has been warned not to re-
turn.
As Gov. Slaton's friends justly
contend, the situation is a reflection
on the commonwealth. Before the
Frank case was presented to him, he
was very popular and influential. He
was believed to be entertaining sena-
torial aspirations. But from the mo-
ment he spared Franks life he be-
came an object of censure and hatred;
and the feeling keeps up.
The case of Frank was put up to
Gov. Slaton in the usual form. He
could not evade action. He must let
the sentence of death stand, or over
rule it. Being lawyer, he was able
to 60 into the records of the courts
with full understanding. He gave
time to their examination. and, in the
end, under his oath of Office, he gave
the condemned man the benefit of the
doubt that had arisen in his, the gov
ernor's, mind.
Frank thus became, as a prisoner.
for life, entitled to the full protection
of the law. Even those citizens who
differed with the governor about
Franks guilt, and thought the pris-
oner should be duly executed, had no
right to appeal by force or otherwise
from the governors decision. The
decision was the law, higher than
the verdict of the jury and the sem
tence of the court.
1t might be we'll for the friends of
Gov. Slaton-and it is stated that he
still has many-not to attempt to
force matters. Time often helps in
such a case. A few more months
may show change of sentiment in
the former officials favor. Certain it
is that If he were to return while still
under condemnation, and armed pro-
lection from violence were again to
become necessary, a condition of af-
fairs very much worse than has hith-
erto existed or now exists would be
brought about. The death by vio-
lence of Gov. Slaton would be an in
finitely greater blot on the name of
Georgia than is the death of Frank,
great as that is.
