Washington's 200th Year
New York World-Telegram)

This is to be year marked by re-
membrance of George Washington,
who was born 200 years ago next
February %.
1t will be good thing to go back
and live over with him year of our
nations founding. It may inspire
more courage in rising out of our
present difficulties. It may impart
some of the feeling of Washington S
character and daring and impressive
stability to our present trying prob
lens. 1t may help bring the nation
back to the simple fundamentals of
its origin. There has perhaps been
no year In our national history when
the service that Washington per-
formed and symbolized could have
been more profitably recalled and
with more credit to his memory.
In this connection we can well
thank the debunkers. BY stopping
the namby- pamby sanctification Of
Washington they have left the real
Washington standing there for our
genuine admiration amid his Virgin
ian plantations, a full-blooded citi-
zen and proprietor who looked and
acted like man.
He was, If you please, your Grand
Uncle George. the Virginian land
owner. who had his acres, his hounds
his whisky, his moments OF cussful
wrath and who left behind him, be-
sides rich personal tradition, sys-
tematized and well-tended estate, his
pride and joy In life.
This he was to begin with, and this
he was to end with. All that went
between, his leadership of the Cont
mental Army, his days as the First
President, were possible and signifi-
cant because as man he typifieo
the practical, prosperous, pioneering
agricultural ideal Of the people who
followed him as Commander in Chief
and trusted him as President.
He still typifies this same practi-
cal ideal, and il there were Wash
ington living today he might arise
naturally to the helm, Just as Lin
coin did. because he was flesh and
blood Of the land and people, Wig
orous human being cut in stature
bigger, more assured and more mag
netic than others.
It was this sort Of man whose vir-
lie character has been the character
Of this most triumphant nation. I;
Is this sort q Warrington. and no
plaster saint Of democracy, that the
children and the grownups Of Amer
lea could best celebrate in this veal
Of peseants, parades and exercises,

Gamers Appeal

Speaker John N. Gamers appea
for Republican cooperation in drive
to balance the federal budget rings
rather strangely in q Washington
where 1t has been customary for such
appeals to come from the other side
OF the fence. Nevertheless, putting
aside all partisan considerations, it
IS good omen.
1t evidently means that both par
ties on Capitol Hill are prepared to
forget political considerations-to a
certain extent, at any rate-in order
to restore Uncle Sans finances to a
healthy condition. The budget is to
be balanced and the nations credit
Is to be made good. That is the i'm
portant thing, and the average citi-
zen will not care greatly whether
the Job is done through Democratic
cooperation on Republican plan OF
vice versa.

Small Town Distinction

Small Town Distinction
There are . good many ways Of
winning distinction in this world;
and one way. which seems q little
quaint, . little pathetic and more
than q little admirable, is described
in a laconic newspaper dispatch
which appeared the other day tell
ing how an S4-year-old woman In q
little Michigan town has completed
her Goth year Of service as organ:st
in the village church.
As distinctions 60, that record Is
mild enough. It earned the lady q
scant half dozen lines in the news
papers, and the most diligent local
correspondent could hardly have de-
voted more than half a column to it.
Yet there is something about it
that makes you stop and think.
It paints q picture, to begin with;
q picture instantly recognizable by
anyone who has lived in small
town.
Who hasn't seen these devoted,
hard working little old ladies Of the
village church-women whose entire
orbit spans hardly more than q doz-
en- miles Of space. whose Interests
center about the home and the
church? Their lives are busy but
uneventful. They find their only
freedom in service. What innumer-
able little village affairs, from church
socials to school picnics, have they
not, by devotion and hard work,
made succeed?
But to stick to one Job. any Job,
for go years in a row IS to do vastly
better than most Of us can ever do;
and In the unwritten history Of such
q woman there Is q profound and tn
spring tale Of fidelity and unselt-
ishness that we could study with a
great deal Of profit.

Memory Is so valuable an attribute
to success that authorities In c0ndt-
lions Of the mind have given it most
careful consideration and study
Memory Is developed early In life.
II the portions Of the brain In
volved In memory are injured BY dis.
ease or physical damage, Or II they
are affected by the changes that
come on with old age, memory be-
gins to weaken. The changes asso-
ciated with old age involve. in some
cases, hardening Of the arteries and
Z diminishing circulation Of blood to
the parts OF the brain that take care
Of memory.
There are many people who only
apparently are unable to remember
well. This, however. l. the result Of
observation-disclosures and preoccupation,
and Of the failure to give adequate
attention rather than any disorder
Of the memory. There are, more
over, many people who have q spe-
cial faculty for remembering, highly
developed through training, and who
ere thereby more successful in occu-
pations In which memory Is m i'm
portant attribute.

Granada hills. Like many a great
artist, the streets of his home city
were the training school. At the age
of eight he had discovered that the
metal tops Of manholeS we're reso-
nant first-aids to q lad trying out
those heel-taps so essential to the
Spanish dance.
When he was nine, cops were clnaS-
ing him off the streets as police are
accustomed to do with precocious
gamins the world over.
But his efforts had not gone un-
noticed by other and older street per-
formers. And so, when little more
than nine, Escudero was off through
the countrysides of Spain, a wander
ing gypsy with . troup OF nomadjc
performers.
They drifted into villages on fete
days; they danced at fiestas and fairs
and existed by passing the hat. The
day came when this implication of
beggary began to bother the growing
youth. One day, asked to pass The
hat, he rebelled. He was too proud.
A fight ensued. and swinging Oh a
tormentor Escudero bade farewell to
his vagabond companions. He re-
turned to Granada. and now he could
appear in the music halls. So
After some years, he made his way
to Paris and took modest studio il:
the Montparnasse section. While
appearing in the music halls. he also
improved hts technique.

The legend goes that the studio
in which he has spent many years
has holes in the floor, testimonials
Of endless practice at heel tapping
He has refused to have them mended
and although great fame has come
to him, Escudero has preferred to
remain there.

No trace has been found Of
the two bandits who yesterday
walked into the bank at East
Falls Church, Va, stunned the
cashier with a pistol-butt blow,
and escaped with $1,000 in
cash.
Town Sergeant Paul Herman

Apparently the robbery was
carefully planned as all county
police officers were detailed at
the Masonic ceremonies in Alex
andria. ~
A. H. Barbour, the cashier,
could give only a meager descrip-
ton of the pair. He said they
looked enough alike. to be broth

The bandits walked in and

complied but one of the men
climbed over the screened par
tition and grappled with the
cashier. Holding pistol to Bar.

A large car with dealers tags
was seen near the bank the pre-
