As we ap- proach the year 1932, when the nation will celebrate the two hundredth anniversary of the birth of Georgd Washington, America seems due to receive still another service from its greatest man. The year of commemoration has turned the thoughts of every American to the historic days when Washington lived. This new history lesson has given us all a sense of our heroic beginnings. It has turned our attention to George Washington as never before and has permitted a vast new outpouring of the facts concerning every phase of his character and his career. The consequence is that we now see George Washington, not as the cold and serious figure we had imagined him from sketchy history lessons in school, but as the warm, emotional, kindly and even humor-lovin- g human being that he really was throughout his life. In our change from the earlier view, we have come to realize that George Washington loved laughter; and had a sense of humor, in that he wrote many a letter in humorous vein, and that while he may have been no great at cracking a joke, he could laugh heartily at the jokes and pranks of others. James Madison, we are informed by the United States George Washington Bicentennial Commission, wTho saw much of Washington on intimate personal terms, has written, The story of his never laughing is wholly untrue; no man seemed more to enjoy He was partigay conversation cularly pleased with the jokes, good humor, and hilarity of his companions. Madison further told Jared Sparks, president of Harvard College, when the scholar was writing a life of Washington, that though "Washington was not fluent nor ready in conversation, and was inclined to be taciturn in general society, yet in, the company of two or three intimatei friends, he was talkative, and when a little excited, was sometimes fluent! and even eloquent." While Washington was President, Bishop White of Pennsylvania was a guest at dinner with the Washingtons in Philadelphia, and records that much hilarity prevailed. This of a Presidential dinner during the administration of Washington! Nelly Custis, has left as testimony to Washingtons mirthfulness, I have sometimes made him laugh most heartily from sympathy with my joyous and extravagant spirits. As for George Washington himself, he was capable of provoking a smile in readers of his letters. Paul Lei ... cester Ford, in his "True George Washington, quotes several of farmer Washingtons letters to friends in which he has a high old time in commenting on the peculiar cussedness of a jackass sent him as a present by the King of Spain. Even in his otherwise business-lik- e diaries, Washington here and there drops a line of dry humor, as when, in speaking of a certain lazy workman, hel records, "Stephen hard at work with an ax very extraordinary this. That he could be quite playful and sportive he proved in more than one of his letters to the Marquis de Lafayette, but during the Revolution, these occasional bursts of humor were apt to take a grim turn, as when he wrote of affairs at Morristown In 1777, "The men with me are too few to fight and not enough to run away with. Commenting on the wholesale, desertions at Morristown, Washington We shall soon be obliged exclaimed, to detach one half the army to bring back the other half. The fact has been overlooked that the Revolutionary army Buffered the greater hardships in winter quarters at Morristown than at the more famous Valley Forge, yet under Washingtons orders at Morristown, thq troops laid to and built a breast-wor- k which they called Fort Nonsense though they built It not so much for fun as to keep themselves warm and for the necessary exercise. One of General Washingtons most graceful bits of humor crops out in a letter he wrote in 1779, inviting seeral ladies to dine at his table. To prepare them for the Spartan fare they might have to face, he wrote: Since our arrival at this happy spot, we have had a ham, (sometimes a shoulder) of bacon, to grace the head of the table; a piece of roast beef adorns the foot; a dish of beans, or greens, (almost Imperceptible) decorates the center. When the cook has a mind to cut a figure, (which I presume will be the case tomorrow), we have two pyes, or dish of crabs, in addition, one on each side of the center dish, dividing the space and reducing the distance between dish and dish to about 6 feet, which without them would be near 12 feet apart. Of late, he has had the surprising segaclty to discover, that apples will make pyes; and its a question, if, in the violence of his efforts, we do not get one of apples, instead of having both of If the ladies can put up with such entertainment, and will submit to partake of it In plates, once tin, but now iron, (not become so by the labor of scouring), I shall be happy to see them. beef-stea- k beef-steak- s.

The report that some Kansas farmers are burning up their wheat fields, if true, is too much a gesture of despair. The idea of burning grain is not a new one, as many will recall that during the depression in the 80s corn didnt pay the cost of harvest; the farmers used corn for fuel, thus getting some value out of it. Certainly there is a material salvage value In fattening livestock, and it isnt necessary to harvest the crop simply turn the livestock Into the field to graze. The will to help ourselves Is essential if we are going to get anywhere. Looks like the farmers and their families are doing more work themselves than ever before. This will help a lot staying home and attending to business is always a very good policy. rhe YELLOW PENCIL "Has your sons college education proved of any real value?
