auction sale held in New York. The
name of the buyer was not announced
but il is stated that he has one Of the
hest collections of the United States
stamps in the country.
The rarity was horizontal half of
rbe first lO-cent stamp issued by the
limited States in 1917. A 5-cent stamp
was issued in the same year, but thel
user of the stamp sold evidently had
No 5-cent stamps when he mailed his
letter from Baltimore, so he carefully
cut the 10-cent stamp In two pieces
and used one Of the halves to pay the
5-cent letter postage. The stamp was
on the original envelope. Had 1t not
been ON the envelope the stamp would
probably not be recognized as genuine.

ly to serve for 5-cent' postage and they
are valued from $500 to $3.50.

GEORGE WASHINGTON

II Is very seldom that we have a
large celebration on the twenty-sec-
ond OF February, Washington's BIRTH
day, but we usually have some pro-
gram or reminder of one of the great
est men in American history
Washington first thought was al
ways for his country. He endured
many hardships, such as cold and
hunger when on expeditions during
the revolutionary war and he was
also hindered by lack OF cooperation
and jealousy of enemies, but he had
faith in God and prayed earnestly
for the cause and the country He
was tempted many times by polit-
ical schemes which might have added
temporarily to his own glory, but
would have been fatal to the inter-
ests of hls country Washington
was loyal to his country, however,
and chose the way he thought best,
although he was condemned by those
who misunderstood his intentions
Thus it was that very often there
was little encouragement in Wash
ington's sky, and it required great
faith and courage to endure.
There are many great and famous
men whose lives we can take as ex-
amples, but let us always do our
best in following in the footsteps
of the Father of his country.

MISPLACED POSSESSIONS

Often things are Thought to have
disappeared from the cloak halls and
indeed from nook and corner of the
school building. Almost every day
something is presumably stolen, but
almost invariably these articles are
merely misplaced or lost, and very
often they are found and returned
in very short time.
We accuse people of theft occasion
ally when our own carelessness is
strictly the cause of the loss.
We wish to thank those people
who are kind enough to find and re-
turn to us our lost articles.
