I did it." While some history writers say this story may not be true, we all like to believe it. When Washington was only 19, he was made a captain in the French and Indian War. When the Revolutionary War broke out, he was chosen commander-in-chief. One of the famous stories of that war is the crossing of the Delaware River. It was Christmas Kve, and a great sleet storm was raging. The Hessian soldiers, whom Kngland had hired to fight against the colonists, were having a party in Trenton, N. J. Washington's soldiers were camped across the Delaware. They had hardly any food and their shoes were in rags. The river was full of ice, but Washington managed to get all his men across and chased the surprised Hessians out of their camp. This victory marked a turning point in the war. After the war, Washington became the first President of the United States. It is no wonder that we call him the Father of His Country. Quicksand By Betty Kalm Draw a circle with chalk. Players hold hands and form a circle outside the chalked circle. At the word, "Go!" each player tries to force others over the chalked circle into the "quicksand." He also tries to keep from going over himself. A player forced into the quicksand is out of the game. It gets quite exciting when the last two tug and pull! Let's Draw George Washington's Cherry Tree By Ann Davidow Lots and lots of . little bows In a leafy round Become the cherries of the tree George Washington chopped down! Raise the Finger Game By Bea Kites This is a game for younger boys and girls to play. Each player places a finger on the table. The leader may say the subject is "birds fly" and then go on to say "robins fly," and as he says so, all lift their fingers. Then he may say, "cows fly." If any one raises his finger then, he's out. (Or, the subject may be "animals walk" or anything else that the group wishes.) The game continues until one or two players are left or until the group grows tired of it Catch Question for a King By Lynn Ames First, send several players out of the room. Let one player sit on a chair and act as king. Bring in the other players, one at a time, to kneel before the king. The king then says to each one, "Say whom you love the best." The kneelers will probably give the "wrong" answer again and again until one of them realizes he should simply repeat, "Whom you love the best," as he was asked to do! The first person saying this wins the game and gets a prize. Family Werkly, Frtyruary 17. I9fij I 1
