The other rep-
i, sath
gis, ooth in war and peace; the
strongest out of many strong:
The Jatter view is doutless the
true view. Washington's great
modesty has caused him to be
underestimated by many. He
never accepted a position of trust
to which he was cailed without
shrinking ; and yet he never failed
to rise to the heights of his op-
portunities. In his subordina-
tion of self to the interests of the
people of the nation he led in
creativg, he set a precedent that
has helped to make the nation
stroug. This was his chief char-
actoristic as a public man, and it
has been and willbe an inspira-
tien tothe youth of the country
who study his noble character in
tne hope of learning to be them-
selves, in their day and genera-
tion, of somo service to their
country. Against the selfish
tendency of men, observable to-
day, to use the government and
its Treasury to further their
private gain, this trait of Wash-
ingtonTs character is an everlast-
ing protest. It gained for him
the ccpfidence of his compeers,
the loye of bis people, and the
admiration of the world. There
can be no doubt that Washington
was a big-braimed man. A study
of his life will make it evident.
Using his mental endowments to

reer of unselfish public service,
he justly became ofirst in war,

SECRET ORGANIZATIONS.
The growth of secret organiza-
tions in the United States during
the present century has been
remarkable. In view of the hos-
tility which these mystic brother-
hoods were regarded by ~the
country at large some fifty or
seventy-five years ago the figures
presented by the last fraternal
census are allthe more surprising.
In the various secret organiza-
tions. of the United States and
Canada, according to the latest
available returns, there are 5,071,-
414 members. ~The largest of
these organizations is the.Odd
Fellows, with 954,144 members
enrolled. Next ecmes the Ma-
sonic fraternity with 935, 4@ and
the Kuights of Pythias with
464,539. In view of the phenom-
enal growth of American Odd-
fellowship, which now heaus the
list of secret organizations in this
country, itis gratifying to know
that the brotherhood originated
in Baltimore, Md., only seventy-
eight years ago. From a small
group only five members in 1819,
the mystic circle has grown until
it now embraces the entire con~
tinent, and numbers upon its rolls
nearly a nillion members.
A writer in the Philadelphia
Public Ledger states that since
1830 the indepepvdent Order of
Odd Fellows in this country has
disbursed in charity no§ less than
$72,280,702.
What is true of Oddfellowship
is also true in a greater or less
tious, and the ccurtry could iil
afford to do without them.

Says :. Lee
I believe the newspapers are
doing more to enlighten our
people and get them on a higher
plane than any other cause..
Wherever there isa family rear-
ing up children with newspapers
in the. house vou can usually see
much intelligezce. Every familv
ought to get a Bible first and a
newspaper next in order to be hap-
py: Parents ought to get a paper
for each of their children and
haye it sent in their childrenTs
name.
This reminds the Landmark
that an Iredell school teacher
some years ago told the editor of
this paper that he found,T in his
teaching ex} erience, that children
who read newspapers Were much
better informed on all subjects
apa more easily taught than
those who did not; and sv much
impressed was he witk this fact
that he made it a habit to advise
his pupils to read newspapers and
if their parents were not subscri-
bers to papers an@ couldn't be
persuaded to become subscribers,
then he urged the children to
take. pzpers themselves if they,
could by any means get tke
movey to pay for them. Some
day"the time may come after the
present generation of editors is
dead, but we believe it will come
the true value of newspapers
will be duly appreciated. Their
importance-as educational factors
is nOW appreciated by many peo-
