The genlua, heroism and noble deeds of Washington are known In every part of the Inhabited globe. Ills virtue*, his nobility of charac ter. are extolled not only by his countrymen at home and abroad but by tbe stranger In every land. That we may not be regarded as the blind worshippers of the man. let us see how he Is viewed by the people of other nations. HOW UK WAS VIEWED IN OTHKK NATIONS I»rd Brougham declared Wash ington to be "the wisest man any country or age has produced." Frederick the Great, of I'rusnla. sent our Washington a sword with this Inscription. "From the oldest general to the greatest." The first Napoleon, to Washington, remarked: "His name will stand as the founder of a great empire when mine shall be lost In the vortejc of revolution." If a blank were left for him to fill with the name of the greatest man who ever lived In the tide of time, he would write therein the nime of fieorge Washington, the gifted iAmartlne said. And Henator John W. Daniels of Virginia, at the d«-dicatlon of Wash ington's monument, eloquently and beautifully spoke these word*: "Hol itary and alone In the grandeur stands forth the character of Wash ington In history: solitary and alone like some penk that has no fellow In the mountain rango of great ness." As the eyrie of time bring* to us each year the anniversary of the birthday of Washington, should we not offer tip a prayer of thanks giving that we are enjoying the blessings of a free people and that our democratic form of govern ment still live*. In the words of Abraham I.lncoln. this Is "a gov ernment of the people, by the peo ple. for the people." There stands at the capital of onr nation a miiJcHtlr, monument 555 fee, t high to perpetuate the m-'-mory of Washington, but he needs no sttch stately shaft, for he is enshrined In the hearts of his countrymen and they, with deepest gratitude and tenderest love, will place In posterity's keep ing, for all time, that Immortal name.
