THE FIRST PRESIDENT
On day whoa Douglas and Dorothy
wer way downtown with Unci John,
an enormous building with atepe load
ing up to It and great columns sud
denly attracted their attention.
In front of the bultdlug was a statu
of Oeorg Waalilngton.
"What Is that building, Unci
John?" Douglas asked.
"That Is th Sub-Treaaury." said
Unci John. "It 1 part of th greut
government treasury where money is
kept In Its big, solid vaults."
Just then a queer, covered wagon
drew up before the steps. Men who
looked like guards and detectives wer
driving In front It seemed all th
mora mytterloua whan Cncl John
whispered.
Thos men carry gum to protect
all the gold that I In th wagon."
"Gold In th wagon 1" exclaimed
Douglas.
"I'm," said Cncl John, "gold Is go
ing to b taken Into th vaults Inside
th building."
"To think of a wagon being Ailed
with gold," said Dorothy, who had Juat

ay In her new savings bank at borne,
and about twlc that amount In th
school bank.
A crowd gathered around while the
heavy money was carried Into th
building.
"Well," said Douglas," It seems very
wonderful to have so much money In
ny one building, but It must b dull
to count quit so much."
"Tea," agreed Dorothy, "I'd rather
have enough so 1 could always count
It and have some for my new bank n1
some for goodies to est! I'd get all
mixed up a hundred time over If I
bad to count a wagon full of money P
"We have certainly never seen any
thing Ilk this before," said Douglas.
"What strange things happen In the
city."
The gold had been taken Into th
Sub-Treasury, and then th crowd had
left
"I don't believe they had so much
money In George Washington's day,"
said Dorothy, as th looked up at th
statue.
'Why do they have a statu of
Washington oulsld this building?"
asked Douglas.
"Becsuse," answered Cncl John,
"It was Just here that In 1789 George
Washington took the oath as first
President of the United States."
"Oh," ssld Dorothy, "and even In
those days this was a wonderful city
for the first President to take oath
here and nowhere else!"
And as Douglas and Uncle John
both agreed with Dorothy' llttl
speech, Unci John explained to th
children what a real fortress the Sub-
Treaaury building was, with its Iron-
barred windows, steel shutters and
great thick walls.
