EXTASHINGTON was made of the
w same clay as most Americans
who have won high leadership and,
like them, he cut his teeth on the
crust of poverty. Only four or five
Of u presidents came from poorer
homes than our first president and he
had less schooling than four-ffths of
his successors. He was, In fact, the
only president in the first forty years
who was without a college education.
Not starting to school until eight, he
had to leave at fourteen to go to work.
Thenceforth until the Revolution the
woods and fields were his only school
room and life his only schoolmaster.
We never can truly understand this
maj if we start with the mistaken idea
that he was. the product of wealth and
aristocracy. His people really were
only a plain, though always highly re-
spectacle family, living on the out
skirts of the cavalier castle which set
up its in the James river
region. Georges own father, who at

one time had been a sailing captain
in the trade with the mother cOun-
try, left his wife and children at his
death five thousand acres Of land,
more or less unproductive; twenty
two slaves, a slender purse and a lean
larder.
While at Mt. Vernon, which his old
est brother, Lawrence. had inherited.
he learned the simple rudiments Of
surveying, and Lord Fairfax, who lived
nearby, employed him to survey a
vast estate in the Valley of Virginia.
In his young manhood Washington
found his "inclinations strongly bent
to arms" To softer arms than those
of Mars the young militarist also was
inclined.
Frying posterity finds him at six
teen pining for a mysterious "lowland
beauty" who would not have the pen
niIess surveyor. He received also by
his own confession a "cruel sentence"
from a Miss Betsy" and afterward
was rejected by Miss Phillipse of New
York. At last the oft-disappointed
wooer came to the White House on
the Pamunkey, and once more he lost
his heart. The mistress of the manor,
Mrs. Martha cambridge Custis, was
wise enough to keep it, being a widow
of seven years, the mother of two
fatherless children, the owner Of large
estates.
When flying embers from the war
fields Of Europe ignited the savage
forests Of the New World, Washing
ton was a militia major, and he was
dispatched on a mission to the Ohio,
a perilous journey of ten weeks
through a wintry desolation. The
next year he went again with a band
Of soldiers, for now the Seven Years
war had spread to America. His cam
paign was hardly a glorious failure,
but he reported that he liked to hear
the bullets whistle.
Now General Braddock came to
scorn the colonial breed while he
showed them how British regulars
fought in proper, soldierly formation.
The undrilled red children of the for
est stubbornly refusing to fight on the
European plan, Braddock fell amid his
panic-stricken troops on the MonOnga-
hela. At the head of his grave In the
wilderness the prayers for the dead
were read. by Colonel Washington.
Although Washington had won no
battles, he had made a most important
conquest. When the Seven Years war
came he was still an Englishman, anC
to him an island three thousand miles
away still was home. In his contact
with British officers he was shocked
to find them aliens to him and his New
World and himself only a colonial in
their eyes. With native condescension
they undertook to teach him his place.
but with native independence he Oh
