manity.

IN ORE than any other American
NH statesman, more than any
other American, Washington
has suffered from tradition,
writes John D. Barry in the Washing
ton Times.
In fact, can't think of any other
great man in the history of the world
who has been damaged in just the
same way, through being made to APP
pear so good.
The reason is hat he has been pre-
eminently the children's hero
He is a distinguished victim of the
deceit we practice on children in the
name of education.
Only the very good boys and girls
care for the story of Washington and
the cherry tree.
The others, the majority, are bored,
or amused, or puzzled.
And then there is the saying, dinned
into the ears of American childhood,
Washington never told lie"
1t alone alienates vast numbers of
children from Washington. In their
little hearts it finds no answering
echo, no enthusiastic desire for emula-
ton.
For truth telling, much as we love
1t in children. and much as we labor
to graft it on those highly imaginative
minds, is often a virtue that develops
only with years, related to intel.i-
gence and to mature character.
It derives it's beauty largely from
association with other qualities more
sympathetic.
Do Real Damage to Truth.
Self-assertive truth-tellers often
seem rigid in character. They do
great damage to truth by making 1t

but hideous
Even in minds of maturity. to the
reputation of Washington there still
clings a suggestion of the comic.
Thackeray did not help the situation
when he introduced the youthful
Washington into THE Virginians" as
highly self-consc:ous and priggish
colonial
There is a fine chance for a new
historian of Washington, one who will
bring out the real man.
Owen Wister made a start some
years ago, when he published a little
book, emphasizing Washingtons more
human qualities. But the book was
too slight to be comprehensive Mr.
Wister may yet write thu complete
history needed by the world Of today.

GOVERNMENT OPENS
NATIONAL PARKS
Motorists to Again Enjoy
Privilege This
Year.

The liberal treatment that Uncle
Sam accorded to the motorist in the
national parks last year met with
such instant appreciation and result
ed in such increased revenues that,
rcrsoniflcd in the department OF the
interior he is planning to increase
the privileges still more for the com
ting season.
Last year the revenue from auto
mobiles touring the parks was s42. 900
as ag;inst $4,000 in 1914, a striking
commentary on the way in which the
motorist has discovered and taken ad-
NantaSe OF the Fairgrounds of the ma
ton N one short year.
This great Increase in travel was
principally in Yosemite, Mount Rainier
and Yellowstone national parks. To
the las, of which automobiles were
admitted for the first time last Aug
ust late in the touring season. and
therefore not receiving the motor car
patronage that might have been eX-
tended had the bars been lowered in
the spring or early summer.

This year Yellowstone will extend
the hand of welcome to the motorist
at the opening Of the touring season.

The park-to park highway plan,

the indeiatigable Gus Holmes Of Cody
directing the campaign, has mapped
out a highway from Denver via the
new Rocky Mountain National park
through Cheyenne to Cody, the east

which II is promised Will be open for

were compared. This state showed an
Increase OF 1,7b7. whereas Alabama
showed 5,373, Georgia $3.50 and Ken
tucky Louisiana, Mississippi and
Tennessee gained over 1000 each.
Making a comparison Of registra-
ton for the last five-year period
shows some interesting facts From
a modest total Of 1.240 cars in 1911.
Mississippi had rolled up a total OF
1.165 Mt the end Of 1916. Tennessee
leads the south in motor cars, having
total OF 27.266 on December 81,
1915. although registering but 8,464
In 1911. Her Increase for one year
was greatest In 1915, when nearly
5000 cars were added. Georgia Is
second in the south with 24,059, al
though In 1912 it boasted first place,
having 1920 cars to its credit.
Putting the figures for seven of the
southern states under the glass shows
that from "A total of 34,424 cars in
1911. the same states have added to
their supply until they now have 120,-
126 cars. a gain I'm five years of s5,-

Getting down to the ratio between

have the edge. although her small
population nAurally puts the equation
closer. Were It possible TO put 81
persons in one car. the entire popula-
tion Of Florida could go joyriding at
one time in the cars registered in that
state. Next in rank comes Tennessee,
with population of S4 persons for
every car owned in the state. Georgia
