This judgment can be swayed toward like or dislike by comments | made to us by others or made by others to them. It takes a strong personality to be impartial, and to insist. that the impression the person makes upon us shall be the one source of our character estimation. We should be sufficiently persistent in treasuring a good impres- sion received, so that we shall not allow ourselves to be swayed inst another or have our estimation biased unfavor- ably by what another says. As Iur the impression. we make on others, it is partly of our own volition, But it is also partly our natural char- acter that is seen and felt, however much we may try to tinge it volunta- rily. That is, what we actuelly are shines out and speaks for us. For ex- ample, & Pebulmt mouth may curve into & smile, but it tells its tale of a | nature that has allowed itself to be touchy even to the point of shrewish- ness. It is an impression we have made upon ourselves and we caniot avoid its showing itself to others. | _ On the other hand, a win: | does not need to smile in to tell of a sweet nature. It bespeal » kindliness that has been nutured by beautiful thoughts. It makes us think twice, and wonder what we give to others on which they can base their judgment of us. Do we show wisdom and friendliness in our attitude—wisdom in not countenancing wrong when we see it, and friendliness toward the best? What sort of an im- pression do we give others whereby they come to remember us? Are we willing to be judged by wi we have made of ourselves? e (Copyright, 1930.)

August 29, 1814.—Although President Madison and the other officials of the Federal . Government have returned here, after their brief sojourn in Vir- ginia, following the defeat of the Amer- ican land forces at Bladensburg, Md. the city is still threatened with attacl basis for judgment. We judge | by the British. Capt. Gordon, recently ascended the Potomac River and reached Fort Wash- ington, on the Maryland side of the river below Washington City. . The garrison of the fort, under com- mand of Capt. 8. T. Dyson of the Ar- tillery Corps of the Regular Army, blew up the fortifications and them without even making a show of resistance against the enemy. He evi- dently felt that the fort was no match for the British war vessels and that the garrison could not stand against the landing parties that the British might send ashore. So loud was the sound of the ex- plosion when the Americans blew up the fortifications that they had labored so hard to bufld that it was heard in this city. ‘The hostile vessels continued up the river and today are anchored in the stream off the city of Alexandria. Some of the people of this city are fleeing again afternoon, fearing that there will be a repetition of the burnings thet occurred earlier in the month, wi Gen.

When Impy, the black Chipmunk, awoke very early in the morning, it took him .a few minutes to.remember where he was. Instead of being down under ground, as he always had been every morning before, his had wooden walls. Finally, it came to him how he had started out to see the Great World and how just before dark he had found a nest in a hollow of the old fence. Impy scrambled up to the hole just above him and looked out. Jolly, round Mr. Sun was just begin- ning his climb up in the blue, blue sky and there was every promise that the day would be fine. Impy climbed to the top of the post and there very carefully made his toilet. wu:l;mu it he was finished it came to him was hungry; so he scampered down to look for: something to eat.

From these trips to the post with a his temporary home. Now, that old fence was almost as good as a stone wall to run along. One day, when he was feeling unusually bold, Impy ran along it to the very end, or rather to where it turned and made a corner. Just beyond was a road. Ane that corner, or rather just outside the fence, was a great pile of stones. Impy's eyes twinkled wi he saw those stones. There were big stones and little stones. %oes between them to slip down into. be1|Iy stayed so long that it was dark fore he thought of going home.
