THE BURTONIAN WASHINGTON THE GREAT LEADER By Ever1tt Sheldon 32 It seems to me there IS no more 1nterest1ng drama than that of our cforefathers the EDg1lSh colomsts m Amerlea as they tolled under tl1e bu1den of tyranny then finally but lnevltably threw off ltS Clll01 yoke struggled for and gamed thexr mdependence and then as a glormus clmmax cemented the COIOHICS together and started them down the path vxlnch was to lead to the great magnlhcent natlon that we know today By far tl1e most outstandmg actor 1n that drama IS the great leader and father George Washmffton And as we cannot lmaglne a drama wlthout ltS ma1n character so we cannot lmaglne what would have been the struggle to set up the m'1cl11nery of our government w1thout Washmgton What other m1l1tary commando could have performed the marvelous feats he dxd when he had to not only fight w1th an untra1ned poorly equlpped and fed body of men lbut also to satlsfy popular demand of the colonles toll constantly w1th a slow Consrr to make them see the necess1ty of hls measures and even to persuade h1 sold1ers aga1n and aga1n by sheer force of h1S personallty to serve lbeyond the tlme of the1r enl1stments To really apprecxate and understand a man we must look 1nto h1s per sonalxty Therefore let us brxefly look 1nto the l1fe of Washmgton and see if we cannot dxscern some of the more marked charactenstzcs and xnfluences WhlCh molded h1s l1fe He grew up vsh1le our country was under the pov er of England a com to do that whxch he thought 1was rlght and d1d h1s best to develop hs natural powers to thelr fullest extent Then when trouble came to h1s country he was ready to do hls b1t to help what he consldered a worthy cause And when people saw hlS worth and made h1m leader he accep ed the pos1t1on a 11ttle surpr1sed and doubtful perhaps but he put everythmg he had mto the work and dld whatever was humanly possxble for 1tS success In everythmg he undertook he followed the pollcy of 'Whatever IS worth domg at all IS worth domg well ThlS was one of the cl aracterlstxcs that made h1m the great leader ITIS actual sehoollng was rather l1m1ted and mostly confined to tl1e 1nstruct1on of prlvate tutors at dlfferent tlmes Yet he came mto a great apprec1at1on of the value of knowledge and was a student all hlS l1fe Wh1le he was st1ll a boy people were lmpressed by hlS des1re for self educat1on He loved books and sought to lnform h1mself along all llnes by which he hoped to advance h1mself Part of hlS early schoohng was to copy the 110 Rules of C1v1l1ty and 1Decent Behavlor These rules had a profound lnfluence upon h1m not to the extent however of mak1ng h1m a prlg He was a perfectly normal healthy lad who loved athlet1es the outdoors and adventure He merely possessed a dxgnlty and statellness of bearmg that served to make h1m appear super1or to others an external manner that d1d not 1n hxs case 1mply conce1t It IS well known that he formed a great nurnlber of 1r1t1mate frxendshxps and that almost everyone who knew h1m vsell such as hzs sold1ers came to love h1m How could thls be true of a cold unresponswe man?
