better understanding Of
the character Of the Father OF His
Country"
And 1t Is a better understanding.
For the earlier literature and history
relative to him threw about our mill
tary hero of the Revolution and our
first President such an atmosphere Of
sajntliness and perfection that he
hardly seemed human being. There
was gasp Of establishment when
glimpses of the real George Washing
ton began to appear. Nobody's feel
ings were hurt. The American likes
his national heroes red-blooded. The
public was soon asking for more of
the same, thank you. 1t got more.
And when at last 1t became evident
that George Washington had the max
ings Of "a regular fellow" II all the
truth were known, the American peO-
pie were simply tickled to death and
the hero of the cherry-tree fable forth
with took his rightful place In the
great American heart.
Now we know lot about the real
George Washington, and every now
and then something new sees daylight.
There is now no danger that the awe
some mantle Of superhuman perfec-
ton will ever again be thrown over
him. The Americans Of the future
can know the real man.
And this is the added Joy Of revela-
ton. The disclosure Of the mans
real nature but adds to his greatness.
With each disclosure the marvel of
the greatness Of the man grows. That
he could be so human and so great
adds to his country's pride in him.
There is an old saying that no man
is hero to his valet. 1t Is one of
those self-evident truths that we ac-
cept instinctively. Yet 1t is a safe
wager that the written words of To
bias Lear are true. After Washing
toms service as President and his re-
turn to Mount Vernon, his CORE
spondence became so burdensome that
he employed Tobias Lear, native of
New Hampshire and graduate of
Harvard, as his secretary.
George Washington is, I believe"
Lear wrote after two years at Mount
Vernon, almost the only man of ex-
allied character who does not lose some
Of his responsibility by an intimate
acquaintance. l have never found a
single thing that could lessen my re-
spect for him. A complete knowledge
Of his honesty, uprtghtness and can
dor in all his private transactions has
sometimes led me to think him more
than man,"
Uncounted Americans have Rugged
themselves for sheer joy upon reading
that General Washington got so ex-
cited over the dlsgraceful retreat Of
Gen. Charles Lee at the beginning of
the battle of Monmouth (177S) that
he cursed Lee to his face till 1.-THE
leaves curled upon the trees" and then
rode his beloved white horse to death
in averting disaster. George was the
original Sheridan at Winchester that
day. That George Washington could
see red and swear 20 completely that
the army was satisfied is pretty good
stuff In most parts of the U. S. A.
The truth is that George was con-
siderable of fighter, and it's good
guess that he wasn't exactly unhappy
during the scrap. He got his prelim-
mary education fighting Indians-and

These gentlemen assert that in their

Community Life Well Received.

Capt. c. 8. Nusbaum, lecturer
and community builder, closed
series of eight lectures with great
address at the high school auditor
ium on Sunday night. Mr.. Nus
baum is a lecturer of national re-
nutation. having been on the plat
form for many years. having in
mind all the time the building of
bigger and better community
life.
While from financial view
point he could do much better
with the lyceum and chautauqua
systems. he has chosen to devote
his entire time to the building of
better communities. believing that
thereby that greater good may be
accomplished to a greater number
and the ultimate solving of many
of the vexing social problems.
Mr. Nusbaum in his lectures CO.
ordinates the church, school, com
mercial and social life of the com
munity, his last lecture bringing
out especially the spiritual life.
While owing to a lack of under
standing by the local committee

the effort was not as thoroughly
organized as 1t should have been,

and no doubt great. good was ac-
complished.

the great good that can be accom-
plished by singing community.
