YORK, Pa. Feb. 81 (By Tho Associ-
atcd Press. Discovery of lost diary
kept by George Washington during the
last years of his life WAS announced
tonight by George r. Prowell, curator
and librarian of the Historical Society
Of York County.
"Whilc searching through unclassi-
fed documents in the library of the De-
partment of State at Washington" Mr..
Prowell said, another gentleman and
myself found the lost diary of Wash
lnston, written during the time he was
President and until his death"
The story of the diary, he declared
never has been made public. and many
or the facts in connection with it arc
entirely unknown to the general reader
February II Once Celebrated
One of the first entries quoted Is tina
written by Washington on his birth
day, and in this connection a little
known fact is brought to light-that in
the last year of Washington's life the
people Of Virginia observed February
IL instead of February % as the ami
versary of his birth. Mr.. Prowcll ex-
plains this by pointing out that Wash
lngton was born in 1882, and it was not
until twenty years later that the Gre
goran calendar was accepted in Eng
land and the United States. Washing
tons birthday, as a result, was re.
corded in the family Bible as February
II, 1882 Gold style), and February ii
continued to be observed in Virginia
until 1910.
The entry of February II, 1893, reads
as follows:
February II, 1899. I went up to
Alexandria to the celebration of my
blrthday. Many maneuvers were per
formed by the Uniform Military Com
panies, and an elegant Ball and Supper

4 Little Talk on Thrift
by s. W. STRAUS President American Society Thrift

This Is a phase OF the matter that
should be given the deepest con-
sideration.
II you cannot find a way OF saving
money out, OF your present Income,
you lack the quality of success.
Success in life is largely a mat
ter of will power. and the man who
cannot stiffen his spine and set his
jaw with sufficient resoluteness to
say, "I will save" lacks the power of
overcoming those obstacles which
lie in the pathway OF every success
full person.
Also It must be borne in mind that
those who do not take sufficient in
terest in their own welfare to lay by
a certain portion Of their earnings
for the future do not care enough
about real success ever to achieve
any substantial place in the affairs
of men.
Before there can be success there
must be a desire TO succeed; and this
desire must be so deep that It over
comes above every barrier.
Saving money, therefore, cannot
be Judged by the amount involved.
It's true value lies in the effect Il has
on the mind and on the character.

Evening journal., 1922-05-27

A great many people whose in
comes are small excuse themselves
from practicing thrift on the plea
that they cannot save anything and
maintain a decent standard Of liv-
ing. While It may be true in some
isolated cases that circumstances
over which they have no control
make it impossible for them to get
ahead in the world. these instances
are exceptional and often a tenn
porary character.
The old saying that Where
there's a will there's a way" applies
with full force TO the practice OF saw
ing money. Those who do not save
or who think they cannot are, to a
great extent. not honest with them
selves. They are unwilling to make
certain sacrifices. Their minds are
biased by false pride or egotlsm.
Their viewpoint Is incorrect. If they
would give the problem sufficient
study they would be able to find
ways by which they could save some
thing even though the amounts be
very small.
And upon ones ability to find such
ways OF saving money, depends ones
chances Of success in life.
