At the annual meeting of the Sons of the Revolution, held at the New Wlllard yes terday. as reported In The Star, a resolu tion, that Congress, after making the an niversary of George Washington's birth day a legal holiday in the District, should observe the same, was discussed. The resolution emanated from the fact that both Representatives Mann and Rlchird pon. who were to address the society, were called away at Ihe last moment to attend the session of the House. Representative George Washington Taylor of Alabama made an address eulogistic of Washington, paying that during the nineteenth century there had not been produced a man such as Washington. The speaker added: "God made America, but George Wash ington made the I'nlted Ktates. Washing ton was different from most statesmen ot today; he never talked much, but went ahead and did things. If he were living to day, he would not shoot a life Insurance president, nor hang a government grafter, but would get after the system that allows such practices to exist." He then called attention to the fact that he saw before him many of the Bona of men who were on opposite sides during the civil war. and. continuing, remarked; "The civil war was a national necessity. There was peopled on tills continent a group of men. bone of the same bone, flesh of the same flesh, yet radically opposed on fundamental questions of government. Providence used a fiery furnace to weld together the north and the eoutlv and to day at the grave of Washington, their first beloved, the boya of Grant and Lee reach their hands across the abyse, and the memories of that awful struggle are washed away in a flood of penitential tears." At the conclusion of the speaking a com mittee was appointed to confer with Gov. Warfield of Maryland in regard to the Sons of the Revolution taking part In the com ing burial services over the remains ol John Paul Jones. D. A. R. Euchre Party. Mary Washington Chapter.

He said in part: "Thlo day's program convinces me ot the spirit of patriotism that pervades this whole school, both for America's chief statesman and honor and reverence for him wlio first guided the ship of state. A great lesson, boys, Is ours to learn that steudi ness of purpose and that untiring energy shown by Washington in braving all diffi culties. Trace the careers of all of our great men and mark their close application to duty. Beginning with Columbus and our early "colonial pioneers to the chief whose memory we honor today, we have examples of men gifted with a wonderful persever enotv-mer, who stood' for right, who defend ed the right under ail circumstances. View, for example, the little band at Annapolis burning the Peggy Stewart rather than ac cept Great Britain's unjust claims. Thus Maryland was the foremost leader against 'taxation without representation.' But the great deeds of these men began by ear nest efforts in their youth, and you, my dear bovs, can best imitate them by close appli cation to your school duties, working with energy to fulfill them In a manner that will render you worthy citizens of this, our great republic."
