heals a wound. 1t simply puts
the offender under an irritating
obligation for which, sooner or
later, he'll get even if he has
an ounce of gumption.
If you really want tc heal a
wound in your life, don't try to
forget. Don't try to forgive.
TRY TO UNDERSTAND.
Try to understand why the
other fellow did what. he did.
You think it was because he
wanted to hurt you? That isn't
so. He may have hurt you. He
may, seemingly, have planned
to hurt you, But beneath that
planning lay a deeper, sadder
motive.
THAT MAN HURT YOU BE
CAUSE HE WAS HURT HIM
SELF.
HE SCARED YOUR LIFE
BECAUSE HIS OWN WAS
SCARED.
Something was sick in him.
Life had warped him, somehow.
His spirit was poisoned by
loneliness, fear, cowardice, envy,
remorse or hate; and to sooth
that agony, to compensate for
his own suffering, he made you
suffer.
IF YOU CAN UNDERSTAND
HIS SUFFER NG, YOU'LL
HEAL YOUR OWN.
And until you do understand
his suffering, your own will
never be healed. Always that
hurt will lie fostering within
you.
TRY TO UNDERSTAND.
Put aside the memory of your
own affront. Go to him as a
friend, or, if you cannot go to
him, think of him as a friend
should think-with pitying COM
prehenSion. Forego revenge for
your own injured egotism. Force
yourself to see the greater in
jury that lies in his own tor
tured nature. Try to heal that
injury.
Sting Will Vanish
If you will do that, very
remarkable thing will happen to
you.
The sting of the hurt will en-
tirely vanish. You will feel as
impersonal about that affront
or betrayal as you would feel
about a clot of mud on your
heels, or the story of some his
torical wrong in which you had
no part. You will see that hurt
as God sees it-without per-
sonal Indignation.
And with that release from
personal resentment, your whole
life will take on a .leW free
dom, a new wisdom and power.
You will see everything from
an entirely different angle.
You will be as traveller
who has journeyed a long time
through a dark and tangled
gully and who suddenly comes
out upon mountain top-for
you will have left the narrow
gully of yourself. You will see
far and wide to the distant
reaches of the human spirit,
and from that day on you will
have a greater power over all
spirits, including your own.
The Washington times., 1932-02-24

TWO hundred years ago,
l. George Washington was
born at Wakefield and,
while he was we'll born, he
was not of the great aris-
tocracy Of Virginia. He
worked his way into the
inner circle and became its
leader. Immediately after
his death, writers began to
create a mythical Washing
ton, having little resem-
blance to the successful and
sagacious business man, the
careful planter, the patient
and wise soldier, and the
statesman, that he was.
Parson Weems did more
than any one else to make
him a terror to the chill
dren. Prof. Sparks con-
tributed his bit. Then John
Marshall wrote a Federalist
creed and called it a bl-
ography. Soon any one who
thought Of Washington as a
man, with the human char
acteristics, was looked upon
with suspicion.
For a century and a third
any effort to picture the
real man who supervised the
plantation at Mt. Vernon,
bought Western lands, and
husbanded his resources has
been denounced as an at; at;
tempt to "belittle him.
These myth-worshippers can
not understand that people
do not fall in love with
statues or steel engravings.
We have always thought
that the service to the mem
ory of Washington would be
to bring the real man closer
to the people.

Washington Not
A Prohibitionist

He was not a prohibition
ist. He manufactured liquor.
He served wines, at his table,
and his. wine glasses may be
: seen at Mt. Vernon today.
On his birthday, Monday,
writer's on his career told us
of the vigorous manner in
which he put down the
" Whiskey Rebellion - in
Pennsylvania. There were
two things involved in that
the enforcement of the law
and the need of the revenue
from the whiskey tax. He
was as much interested in
the latter as in the former.
Were he here today and
saw the dificit of far more
than a billion dollars in the
Federal Trea asury with
statesmen forced to lay taxes
on everything possible, down
to the bread basket of the
poor, while billions are spent
individually for liquor, wine
and beer, and with no tax at
all on that, he would think it
exceedingly bad business.
Since the liquor traffic goes
on without serious disturb
ance he would wonder why
the deficit were not met and
the destructive burden of
drastic taxation lifted from
business and wage earners
by placing a tax on the liquor
traffic-as was done in his
day. He would never be able
to understand a system which
laws a tax on the food of the
people while permitting boot
leggers to make staggering
fortunes with immunity from
taxation.

America Was First
Tn Washington Greed

We're he to return to US
TODAY he would fail to note
the resemblance Of himself
to Mr.. Hoover and be ur1-
able to accept, as wise, many
of the policies and teachings
Of the hour. In recent years
there has been a disposition
among a school of historians
to soft-pedal his determlna-
tion, when he, entered upon
his revolutionary career, to
create here a distinct nation.
We would have no sovereign
nation but for Washington.
There were times during the
Revolution when, by consent
ing to a compromise recog-
nizing the rights Of the
Colonies, he would have been
accorded high honors by
England; but no one in his
day was more determined to
make the break complete and
to create a separate nation,
with a different outlook.
George Washington was a
nationalist. He stood for
America first-though even
in his day some people
thought this vulgar and lack
ing in vision.
During his day, after the
establishment Of the repub-
lie, there were great num-
bers, excited by the great
conflict between En- g Ian d
and France, who could think
of America only, as a pos
sible help to one or the
other. There was an English
party; and there was a
French party; but Washing.
ton was at the head of the
American party. He was at
the head of an American
party when he died.

bury that unhappy memory
within your Consciousness
heap new thoughts over it, as
you'd heap blankets over car

the carrion would continue to
decay-and spread its poison.
And so the sordid memory
buried in your consciousness,
would continue to do its evil
work, and spread its poison,
subtly, but. with deadly GER
tainty, through all your life.
It Rarely Heals
Don't try to forget an injury.
Don't even try to forgive; for
most forgiveness is based on a.
false idea. It assumes that
you're better than the chap
you're forgiving, and you're
not. Maybe you have the bulge

tues, but it's dollars to dough-
nuts that, if the record were

that sacrifices would be
necessary to pay the debts,
but he felt that a non-pay
ment of the debts would be
to sacrifice all confidence in
government.
Were he here today to
read and hear that nations,
having 60 years to pay on
debts contracted for their
national purposes, should be
permitted to shift the bur-
den to the creditor, he would
be amazed. The SNUG sug
gestion that billions of the
debts of other nations should
be passed on to the Ameri.
can people to be paid would
have aroused the wrath
that famed into profanity
at the battle OF Monmouth.
He was a hard-headed
business man who used the
caution of common sense and
he believed, as his diary
shows, that when business
men, through greed or
slovenly action, make a bad
bargain they should pay the
penalty themselves. Had any
one suggested in his day
that the loss should be trans
ferred from bankers making
