America is fortunate that both of her two mighty men whose birthdays we celebrate this month ---WASH1NGTON and LINCOLN left to posterity not only the monuments and the public records of their noble deeds and gcrviccs. but they also left inspired words of priceless value that will live and influence their countrymcn and mankind aS long aS the world lasts.
 Daniel Webster
 Daniel Webster said in his fa- nous speech Of February 22. 1852:
 "WashingtOD's Farewell Address k full of truths important at all times. and particularly deserving consideration at the present. With a saEacIty which brought the fu- ture before him, and made it like the present, he saw and pointed out the dangers that even at this moment most imminently threat en US. ! hardly know how . greater service of that kind could now be done Co the community. than by . renewed and wide diffusion of that admirable paper. and an earnest invitation to every man in the country tO reperuse and consider 1t.

 Today thoughtful citizens arc saying exactly what Daniel Web- stcr said ( century ago. "T hardly know how . grester service of that kind could now be done to the community, than by renewed

 Quotations from tho Farewell Address are now almost c daily occurrence in otir newspapers, and as the present interest and disciis- sion Of THE CONBTTTUT1ON increases. every citizcn should read what Washington said about ite--hc who as president of tho Constitutional Convention, helped to create it, and by the unanimous choice of the PEOPLE was the first to administer our Govern ment under it.

 Simply to have lost the best friend che had ever had would have been cruel enough, Marcia realized.

That he could % easily cxpose her to humiliation hurt her more than did the humiliation itseIf.

ing tribute of the country to Washington on his retirement from public office on March 4th. 1707. Surely no other human be- ing ever read in his newspaper or heard from the lips Of his conn- trymen such genuine words Of af- lection and esteem. The people called him the Father of his Country. "Our illwtrious Prcsi- dent and faithful servant" "The most illustrious character that has ever appeared on the theatcr of human actions" But these tributes did not clate him. rather they seemed to sober him; and thanking them he said that what had been accomplished was the result of their common efforts and sacrifices.

Washington, who had refused to accept money for his public gcr- vices, repeatedly declared that the highest reward that could come to him for any services he had been able to render his cointry---waB the appreciation of his country men. Fully assured of this he and his good wife, Martha Washing ton. went back to their beloved Mount Vernon the Potomac. on the 9th of March, i707.
