If Washington could come to life and gttend the celebration he'd look about and decide he was dreaming or on some strange planet Not much left that he'd recognize. In 1782 when he was born, the stage coach trip between New York and Boston took two weeks, amazing speed for those days, with only one stage coach on the job, In 1782 the first white inhabitant entered the valley of Virginia In 1782 Vincennes was founded, the first Buropean settle. ment in Indiana. From England 120 immigrants sailed to eftle in the new district, Georgia, held “in trust for the poor” Nothing else of importance happened that year in Amer- ica as the infant George Washington snuggled in his cradle, ) The year 1799, when Washington died, was even duller than 1732—except for the excitement of watching our re- public owly on its feet, Slavery had become an issue, legislation for its gradual Suppression being passed by New York state. Liberty was in the air. Only a year before, imprisonment for debt had been abolished, in regards to debta owed to the yvovernment, A treaty between Mngland and the United States had of fended France. There had been no actual declaration of war, but French and American ships had conducted a sme I} naval warfare in the waters around the West Indies. Vessels were captured and crews taken prisoner, This trouble was settled in 1799, peace coming after Napoleon offered. fair terms. The cost of runfting the national government in 1799 was only a trifle more than TL million dol How many hours would that sum last now in Congress? Washington closed his eyes forever, just as the young American republic was getting on its feet, The population of the whole country was less than five and a half millions, ‘ny Tis hours of most vivid imagination, he probably never dver ted that the republic which he fathered would ever be mor powerful than one of the smaller Huropean countries. ‘oday that republié is more powerful and richer than the whol) world wag in Washington's lifetime. THE CURTAIN OF MYSTERY The skeleton of a prehistorie woman, feet tall, Idaho giantess eight has been dug up in the Salmon River country of Seientists are excited about the find. The skeleton probably will wind up ina museum, to be seen by only a. Msiness success ay ever it small portion of the public. What a pity, old PLT.

Quite a puzzle. : Science reminds us of a small boy, happiest when he is rooting around in an old attie. You have observed how actentists are delighted when they find an ancient fossil from which they can reconstruct the past. Maybe you've also noticed the tendéney, of science a thousand times as much attention to the myster past as to the great mystery of the future happens to us after death, » to pay sof the namely, what TIPTOER Keep your hat on when Visiting the art museum, urges A. 8. Baylinson, secretary of an artists’ organization in New York. Says he: “We want people to get away from the sort of backwoods idea many Americans have of art and art exhibitions, which leads them to take off their hats, talk in Whispers and tiptoe around a gallery. Most Americans do that. to show their respect for art, And that's all Americans have, respect. They have no love or understanding of it Baylinson should have talked to that old-time Chicago packer who, enraged because his son paid $8000 for an oil painting of six sheep, foamed: Why, 1 can buy six REAL sheep for less than $80." This packer weuld have given Bay- linson some new ideas about popular respect for art. INCURABLE In 1872, London lung specialists advised Rebecca Winter to make her will, They broke the news gently — she had incurable tuberculosis. Yet she did not die until the other day. For 52 years she had lived suffering from an “incurable disease.” She confirms Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes’ observation that the way to live to a ripe old age is te contract an incurable malady and nurse it.
