' in a bow old English script: January . , 1810.” I wonder if you'll credit this; George never wore a wig, For curly mops of milk white wool And there is evidence to prove This bald assertion true; George combed his own hair smoothly back And wore it in a queue. _ . wonder if the idea of a wigless George Washington will ever become popular with Fourth of July committees. Be that as it may, evidence points to the fact that our First President really did ‘wear his own hair.” . Among my souvenirs there is a quaifit, old fashioned engraving which depicts the head and ‘shoulders of General Washington. The face, long and rather homely is en profile and the hair, unmistakably his own, is combed sleekly back and confined at the nape of the neck by a black ribbon tied This unusual picture of Washington is set in a circular. {f: black walnut frame. Upon the back, which like the front isla . protected by glass, appears this curious inscription, done in “The God-like Washington died 14th December 1799. All America in tears. The within is the best likeness I have seen. The hair if of his own head, this will increase its value with time; it’s my earnest request this may be preserved to succeeding generations. The hair was presented to me by May E. Watson Billings. Con. Army Certificate. This may certify that the within hair was enclosed by General Washington in a letter to me dated Newburgh June, ’83, was his own hair. I wonder how long Franklin’s Shakespearean quotation . . will continue to reverberate in and about Temple. It might be well for labor leaders everywhere to ponder another group of words from a still more notable source ‘—"‘A house divided against itself shall not stand.” 4 __ If wonder if there would be fewer law breakers if law makers would express their ideas in terms which the layman could readily understand. Turn to the laws and ordinances designed to regulate the use of headlights upon auto motive vehicles. Surely we would never disregard these rules if we knew what they meant and comprehended the tragedies which their observance might avert. Then why not omit the ‘‘to wits and whereases’’ and simply say, “Equip your headlights with dimmers and then for—Safety’s Sake, use them.” —A. MERRIAM CONNER. r} . Mirra-Line ne . ‘.
