Improving on
History
I just finished hearing a Politician,
one of the Washington Boys, talk
on Abraham Lincoln. T h e only
thing I could picture in common
between him and Lincoln was that
they had both been in Washington.
When a Politician aint talking
about himself he is talking about
Lincoln. Lincoln has had more
Public men speak of his good
qualities, and fewer copy any of
them, than any man America ever
produced. His famous address was
only about two hundred words
long. N o Politician has ever been
able to even copy his briefness.
In fact that is the last one of his
qualities that they would try to
copy. Lincoln said more in those
200 words than has been said in
the entire City o f Washington in
the last 10 years, and here is a
quality that no historian or speaker
has ever brought out before. At
the completion of the Gettysburg
speech, he wisely refused one of
Grant’ s Cigars, and borrowed a
sack of "B u ll” Durham from an
Ex Southern private, rolled his
own, got on his Mule and went
back to Washington.

the subject of the flood.
In Genesis 7:20 we learn that
‘Fifteen cubits upward did the
waters prevail; AND THE MOUN

That
latter clause is a little bewild®r
ing. V\'e find by turning to the
table o f lo n g measure in the
back o f the Bible that a cubit
equals a little leas than two feet,
hence the fluoa rose upward to a
depth of less than 30 feet, yet
