THE IMMORTAL WASHINGTON Throughout the length and breadth of the land, today is being celebrated as the birthday of George Washington, first president cf the United States and coinmander-in-chiel of the Colonies’ military forces during the war for independence. Washington's ideals have furnished inspiration for rising generations throughout the history of the re public and ar long ss time lasts, his memory will be revered, and his standards of loyalty, patriotism and lionesty instilled into the hearts and minds of the youth of the land. Washington was born February 11th. Its is true that we celebrate his birthday eleven days later, and so did he until he was twenty years of age. The date was changed by him to make himself corrected to the Gregorian or reformed calendar which was adopted in 1752 in England and its colonies. This reflected the accuracy and thoroughness that was so thoroughly reflected in his character. We remember Washington chicfiy as our first president. More importa'.nt than that, he was the powerful personality that held the thirteen original colonies together until they won their independence, ft was George Washington who fired the nation when the.outlook was blacker:. And Washington, as he led America victoriously through war, also led it victoriously through the confusion and dangers that beset our republic in its babyhood. A giant personality, Washington. Much pf-ofit mid inspiration is to be derived in studying his life. r & 4. I 1 Tte DR. D. W. BRANNEN The suddent dfeath of Rev. Denton W. Brannen, D. D., one of the best known ministers in the state, at his home in Moultrie Wednesday will occasion profound sorrow and regret throughout Georgia, especially in Presbyterian circles in which he was widely known and tenderly regarded. A man of Very scholarly attainments and deep re ligious convictions, to which was added a peculiar faculty for Biblical, interpretation, Dr. Brannen was regarded as one of the leading pulpit orators in the south, and an expounder of Holy Writ whose mes sages always carried conviction. -Practically-all of Dr. Brannen’s adult life was spent as pastor of the Presbyterian Church, of Mil- ledgevillc, which charge he accepted following his graduation from Princeton and held for twenty-six consecutive years, during which titne he deceived many flattering offers from, larger and more influ ential churches in the larger cities* pf the south, all of which were rejected on account of- h1s great loVe for the Presbyterian congregation of Milledgeville whom he had served so long and so faithfully. ■ However,'several years ago ho, affiliated himself with the Inter-church World Movement, but subse- . quently decided to return to pastoral work, accepting a call to the' Moultrie Presbytprian Church. : Dr. Brannen’s death right at the height of his u.se- fulness (he was fifty years of age) will be keenly . church people of ail denominations, and his nauKf 8 the P Se ar ^S^he Presbyterian denomi- h - S',® Mnds rul ?5’ of aA : agreement by which 600,000 Japanese will move to' Brazil and form a colony.
