LITTLE FOLKS STORIES.
George Washington"


Potomac river in the year 1882 on
the twenty-second day of Feb
ruary a baby boy was born, who
was destined to be the greatest
man u country has ever known.
This baby's name was George
Washington, whom every boy and
girl in the United States knows
and loves.
His childhood was happily spent,
playing with his brothers and sis
ters. When he was yet very little
his home on the Potomac burned
and the family moved to another
plantation on the Rappahannock
river not very far away.
Mr.. Washington wished his chill
dren to grow up brave and truth.
full.
You ali know the story of George
Nashington's Ratchet and how he
cut down a fine cherry tree, but
he told the truth, and his father
was proud of him. Georges father
gave him a pony when he WAS a
little boy which he named Hero
After George learned to ride he
spent some of the happiest hours
of his childwood on this pony.
When George was fourteen ear
old he decided that he wanted to
do something to help his mother
who did not have much money
He had always had a longing for
the sea, and SO he decided to be a
sailor. AT first his mother did not
object, but George knew she did
not wish him to go. When be
went to say goodbye to her she
felt SO badly that he would not 90
and leave her.
Soon after this he studded sur
veying and he liked this study
very well.
When the French and Indian
war broke out George Washington
was made a Colonel and COM
handed the Virginian troops.

States; there were thirteen states,
but they belonged to England and
were called colonies.
England did not treat her colo
MES justly. When ever she wished
to raise any money she would tax
the American colonies The col.
onies decided not to pay these
taxes for they said ''Taxation
without representation is tyran.
ny" England sent soldiers over
here to make the American obey.
The colonist raised an army and
the American soldiers fired on
the English troops. Thus began
the Revolutionary war. Washing
ton was chosen Commander of the
army,
Iu 1881 the war came to the
close. The colonies had won their
Independence. George Washing
ton o hoped to spend the rest
of his life with his family and
friends in his quiet home, Mount
Vernon. But his country called
him again and he served as presi-
dent for two terms.
After that he again returned to
Mount Vernon where he lived hap

was taken i'll with a sore throat
and he died a few days later, and

AN EPISODE

A stirring drama was yesterday begun in
the courts of New York, which will reveal
in course the stuff that life is made Of A
woman of wealth and social station, named
Mrs. Blanca De Saulles, was arraigned for
killing her husband, whom she accuses of
having taken her money and illegally kept
her little son from her.
Here we see operative the forces we call
dramatic, which is nothing more or less
than action Of motives of the heart on cir
cumstandes. The circumstances in this
case will focus around the always old but
fresh and moving love of a mother for her
child.
In other words, the most potent force N
human life will be pitted against the opera
ton of static justice. The question that
will be put to the jury will be. is there a mo-
tive pure enough, granted that.is the pnrest
instinct of the human heart, to justify the
crime of murder?
And even down here in Pensacola the
issue will be followed with genuine inter
est. SssSsaszsssss

LOOKING SOUTH

Little or nothing is being said in news
dispatches of what is being done in the
South American countries toward building
ships for the food emergency. Prob
ably there is very little activity of this kind,
or more would be said about it. While it is
probably true the facilities of the countries
on neighboring continent for shipbuidlng
are limited, they surely have some fac1l-
tiles
In relation to ships they stand somewhat
related to this section and food. There will
probably be a ship shortage for many years,
lust as their is going to be beef and pork
shortage What is needed is vision to see
the opportunity and vigor and capital to
take advantage of it.
If Brazil and Argentina and Chill had
ships, If would mean not only that their ex-
cess foodstuffs, of which they produce an
abundance would help TO win the war, but
it would mean no end of prosperity for the
countries themselves Brazil has declared
var again Germany but without ships this
declaration, as far as material effectiveness
is concerned might as we'll have been
perfumed note threatening to slap the leu
tons on the wrist.
South American commerce has always
been carried in foreign bottoms. A vigor-
Gus ship building program at this time
would not only be measure OF first I'M
oortance to the prosecution OF the war, but
would insure them measure of postwar
prosperity, which economists are agreed
is going to prevail.

BETTER HEALTH IN THE
CITIES

Preparations for the war have opened
our eyes to many Of our shortcomings, both
national and local. Not the least of these is
the condition of rural health as shown by
4 comparison of the lists of reflections OF
young men for the army from urban and
country communities.
In a word, the physical examinations
show conclusively that the city man is the
physical superior of his country brother, III
The MA ority of cases.
On the first flush, it would seem hard to
account for this, knowing as we'll as we all
do the virtues of fresh air, quiet aid more or
less regular living, and exercise, all of
which are enjoyed in UNNECESSARILY great
er degree in the country.
But interested authorities have gone to
the root of the matter have concluded that
inferior physical school equipment in the
country, especially with relation to bad
sanitation has a good deal to do with it,
plus the lack of physical examination of the
children, which is obligatory in practically
all city schools.
The latter point is very much stressed.
Physical ills to which many children are
heir to, are very easily cured in their incipi-
ency, but If allowed to continue, prove not
nfrequently to be very detrimental to the
health of the child in later life. Medical in
spection of the schools causes these ills to

Some authorities assert that the more in

children to be more mentally alert, and
that their bodies respond to this mental
stimulus. And this may be true to degree
Also as class city children are better fed
That is to say, with more wholesome diet,
and battle more frequently.
Probably there are many causes for the
existing state OF affairs, but it is agreed
