Call and see us about (Continued from Page 1) knows fs the twelfth. Ten days later is the day first nationally observed as a birthday memorial, that of George Washington. James Russell Lowell, the poet, author, trav-eder, ambassador to Great Britain, was born on the twenty-second, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, who still remains our most popular poet, was born on the twenty-seventh. There are other notables who have this month as the time of their birth, but these are sufficient to thow that February has done much for American biography. This month has given us three Presidents —Harrison, Lincoln, Washington; three men of letters—Greely, Lowell, Longfellow; and one scientist—i Edison. Each in his own order stands in the forefront of distinction and merit. February is also the month for some events that were prominent in their period. Roger Williams, the founder of Rhode Island and the true friend of the Indians, landed in America on the fifth, and the same day, but alas" many years later, and oh, what a contrast between the gentle man of peace and the terrible days of war, a German submarine sunk the "Tuscania" off the coast of Ireland, resulting in the death of 159 American soldiers bound for France. Speaking of France reminds us that two years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, on February 6, France signed a treaty of alliance with the United States. She formally recog-nied us as a nation, promising us assistance. The assistance came in the person of Lafayette and his men. How the shades of Washington and Lafayette must have hovered near when, standing at the grave of Lafayette, General Pershing spoke those now memorable words, "Lafayette, we are here!Had it not been for France there might have been a different ending to the Revolutionary war." Two events are associated with the tenth, nearly one hundred years separated—one the ending of the French and Indian war, by which England became possessor Canada, the other the inauguration of Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America. In rapid succession pass the dates: General Oglethorpe began the colony of Georgia on the twelfth, Alexander1 Graham Bell patented the telephone on the fourteenth, and Arizona, the last State admitted into the Union, has its date the fourteenth; the battlsship "Maine" was sunk in Havana harbor on the fifteenth, Ohio came into the Union on the nineteenth, and the twenty-third is the anniversary of Gen. Zachary Taylor's great victory over the Mexicans at Buena Vista. There are two other days of February we must not forget. One is the day of "B"r Groundhog," the patron saint of the people who are weather superstitious. Dear little furry ball of hopes and fears. How you are believed in and talked about. The other day is St. Valentine's, on the fourteenth, when love missives flit through the mails, leaving their sentiments of affection. Not so romantic are we as in the days of our grandmothers. Then a valentine meant something more than a passing compliment. Many a hopeful heart cast its fate on the reception of a delicate creation of lace and olor, and true-love expression; and read. We trust there is still some real sentiment in valentines. Let us hope the true loving, as James Whi'tcomb Riley describes, is still among us. You recall— "I gave my treasures to her—all —my pencil—blue and red; And if little girls played marbled, mine should be all hers, instead! But she gave me her photograph, and printed "Ever Thine" I ing ground." The number of ducks Across the back—in blue and red— killed was at least 500, it was said. that old sweetheart of mine!" -------------o------------- —0— ! GEORGE W.
