' THE BUPTONIAN shoes as she was unalble to do so and of course Miss Fdwalds could not now help her When my work was completed I was again politely dismissed About a. week later the ladies thought they would enjoy a picnic near a lake not too far away They asked what I would like to eat and what were in general my ideas regarding a p1cn1c lunch They did not wish to build a fire for fear of its getting out of control and doing damage Hot soup they decided in thermos bottles cold chicken sandwiches and then perhaps fruit and cookies Would I please order this lunch prepared at the Tea Room and myself Hoe ready to ggo at eleven The picnic was a success rwlth one excep tion To get to the :beach on the pleasant side of the lake we had to cross the railroad tracks I turned off the mam road heard the whistle of a train and stopped We were very near the tracks and as the express roared by the ladies sitting in the back seat Jumped almost 1nto the front seat I never did know what they expected I have always thought they lbelleved I did not intend to stop or that I couldn t do so Anyway they gave me a bad scare as much of a one as the train gave them and after that I always warned them before every crossmg I could not seriously object to their lbackseat driving xt was too pohte and meek and quite different from the sort of directions some people try to give eight miles an hour and all kinds of suggestions on hllls One nervous soul golng up the Mohawk Trail several years ago kept pleading to know wlnle the car was sailing along in hlgh Are we in low gear yet When the car was finally forced into second speed she looked happier but said I shant feel really comfortalble until we re in low then I know we re safe Once Mrs Cramer invited a determmed spinster to accompany her and Miss Edwards on the drive but never again The guest lnsisted that she knew a. road better than the one I planned to take and was so rudely persistent that I had to glve in to her She took us twenty miles out of the way on a rough back road that could not even lboast any particular scenery My ladies and I were completely exhausted when we finally reached home a half hour late for supper As for the guest well she certainly received no thanks and I suspect she got some bumps At the end of the season I fwas sent to get tickets express trunks reserve a. drawing room and telegraph for Mrs Cramers car to meet them in New York All these arrangements were completed two weeks before their departure It was a great deal of fun and I hked the responsiblhty I was given I was sorry to have them go and often wonder if another summer may bring them back again They thanked me warmly as they said good bye and a feeling of satisfaction that my first try as a chauffeuse had been a success cheered me as I watched the train go steammg out of the station and down the valley . 7 v ' v . 1 ' M 1 I A W . . .W .

are seldom ever seen outs1de of th1s .belt They also come ln cycles a maxxmum occurr1ng every 11 13 years Sun spots are dxvxded 1nto four parts the half shade around the spot bexng called the penumbra the spot ltself the umbra and the extremely dark part ID the center the nucleus The fourth part can only be seen when a spectrohel1o gram IS used It IS the calcxum vapor and IS called the floccull The penum bra somet1mes reaches the d1ameter of 100000 m1les and the umbra ranges from 500 to 50000 m1les m dlameter Although the spot looks almost black It IS many txmes lxghter than any art1fic1al llght

clusters nebulae and galaxles Many txmes the three of these are cons1dered as one nebulae Many clusters are called nebulae but when a powerful telescope IS used upon them they resolve 1nto separate stars that are very close together, that IS ln our l1ne of s1ght It IS 1n these clusters that many bmarles are found Galaxles are also consldered nebulae The most frequent of them bemg the spxral nebulae whlch 1S agaxn made up of separate stars True nebulae are gaseous and of many shapes such as the great Nebula 1n Orlon whlch resemfbles a bonfire and the Nebula 1.11 Cygnus whxch IS very mxsty and IS strung out over a rather large terrltory for a nebula There are also black nebulae wh1ch ublot out stars and make what seem llke black s1n1ster holes ID the sky The galaxxes are 1slar1d

THE BURTONIAN 23 group of his oflicers about a. table for a prolonged dinner where there was much gaxety Indeed lt seems quite unreasonable to think that a man who knew as much sorrow and trouble as Washington did could have ever recovered from it had he not :been alble to let go completely at times in an unrestrained peal of laughter This Slde of his character has been neglected and almost forgotten He was not of course and did not try to be a clown or a humorist But lf one looks carefully in his writings he w1ll und many very lngenxus sudden and amuslng comments reactions and characterlza tions And in other people s writings We find many more instances which show his love of a good time There are instances too which show the presence ovf the opposite emotion 1n h1s life There were tlmes when h1s over burdened spxrlt gave way and he broke down and wept Once when his dearly loved little niece died and again when Arnold his loved and trusted officer tumed traitor A letter which Lord Fairfax wrote to Washxngtons mother while he was still a boy mentions several traits which he had at that time and which we may see he bore all his life He says the boy was unusually serlous for his age and was not a great talker He had an intellectual conscience he was very exact and method1cal and he was rather quick tempered which how ever the old gentleman said he believed George would learn to control As we never hear it spoken of later we may imply that Fairfax s prediction was well grounded He says also that the Hooy was a rather slow thinker but generally arrlved at Just conclusions As we see him in later life we see that he developed himself in this line to a high degree of perfection His president have withstood the test of tlme and appear as sound and unques tlonable now as ever and during the Revolution he worked out remarkable strategic tactics and though forced to make many qulck decisions lt appears that he made scarcely any mistakes in Judgment Then too his wonderful albxhty to control people must have come from a. careful most minute study of human nature There are other characterlstlcs of his which are so well known as to make lt unnecessary to descrnbe them again In ubattles h1s personal bravery and disregard of danger caused his friends much worry for his life Then there is his very rellgxous nature and deep rooted belief in God which pulled him through many try1ng times and bolstered up his spirits in hours of trouble His ability to reason clearly when all the odds were against hlm shows strength of the rarest and most magnificent type His magnamlnlty to a defeated enemy IS a trait of character perhaps not as widely realized although Just as much a part of him as any This IS probably one of the truest marks of a great leader In the same way he was always generous and gave away conslderalble money without expecting anything in return A man with the natural talents and physical albxlity of George Washington could scarcely fall to stand out among his fellows as unusual But to ralse himself to the leadershlp of a nation took good hard work He was not merely a leader in one field but in many fields in which he was interested We all know that he was leader of the American forces during the Revolu tion yet thls in itself necessitated that he be chxeff in many lines He had to be chief engineer chief of intelligence sanitary head an exceptional soldier a wlse Judge and a skillful statesman He had to advise Congress and then take Congress orders In clvilian life also he excelled in different ways As . , ' b . .
