Tin- month of February is especial ly
lien in birthdays of eminent Ameri
cans, prominent aiiioiij whom are
Washington. Lincoln. Longfellow and
Lowell. The striking tiling about all
these is their sterling worth as men.
In celebrating' their birthdays this
y.-ar why not arouse new interest by
more attention to character and less
to the familiar facts of biography and
achievement:' The jrre.it thing is not
merely that Washington h-d the pa

Tin- ramped space in which the

thff poor iiceousties of the Circuit
