As uo tiro soon to celebrate the birthday of America's greatest son, It lb befitting that we should ponder for a moment nnd ankt What element moro than any other was It that made this fanner's sou so groat a factor . 1 t . amoL'K Ills leiiow men Hint a wuoie nation celebrates tho day of his birth? Born on u farm ami reared In pov erty, with but a meagro'chance to ao U 11 ire even u rudimentary oducutlon In his youth, Lincoln's environments were not suoh as would tend to pio duco men above the ordlnury sphere lu llfo. He did not inherit wealth with which ho might acquiro an edu cation, yet ho becamo so fluent in the ICugllsh language that eminent sohol urs hove declared his speech atOeltys burg to be ouo of tho greatest pro ductions In American literature. As a debator ho had no peer In the country, and as a lawyer no ono was blB equal. It is doubtful whether any other man could havo executed such great projects Jn matters of State, Lincoln was a giant both physically and meutally. Aud during the great slavery agitation he possessed the propor mettle to strike tho Html blow that should once for all eliminate tho oounlry's greatest moral ovll Blavory. Had ho accomplished nothing else, this aot alouo would havo ranked him among the world's gret test heroes and bouefaotore, The avowed enemy of shivery, he had a heart which was so warm toward the oppressed, regard less of iao or color, that eighty mil lion people today hold him in the highest reverenqo, JUo wtft perhaps sympathetic to a fault, for he could not refuse a request for leniency to ward negligent soldiers. .Once wUlju Informed that twenty, soldiers were to be shot for desertion, he pleaded with hla general In behalf of the men, sny ing that there wore already too many widows and orphans in the country. Illuminated by a warm heart, his homely facp is to ub tho most I eiutl ful in American history. We lovo him for his warm heurt, wo adore hlin for his honesfy, asid wo hall him for his bravery, Our highest, admlratlou docs pot culminate In Lincoln the Presi dent, but in Lincoln (he man. Here.n lies the secret of his useful career. Character not money makes men useful and great. When men possess grout forttjney wo suspect them, but when they poasess great character we admire thnin. May tlio day novel uawii when sho tliull esteem money more than character. And may we never lose sight of Abraham Lincoln the man. The lesson pf this character sketch may l;o gummed up in the following words of Longfellow: "Lives of great men all remind w, We ran make our lives Kubllmq; And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the unndx of Time." J. A. II. --- WILLOW GREEK ITEMS. L."II. Hamilton, having rented the Wills property to Bam Sprinkler, has moved lilt) fumily into the house form erly occupied by John F.
