Telephone 4925 Anniversary of Mary Washington Mother of First President Died 142 Years Ago, Last Tuesday Washington, D. C.—Aug. 25 marked the 142nd anniversary of the death of Mary Ball Washington, mother of the man whose 200th birthday anniversary Ball Washington lived the greater part the entire world will celebrate in 1932. In Fredericksburg, Va., where Mary Ball Washington lived the greater part of her life, and where she lies buried, the shaft erected over her resting place bears a single line that perhaps tells in its half dozen words the uttermost that could be said of her. Praise In One Line That simple line reads, "Mary, the Mother of George Washington." It would seem to be praise and glory enough for any woman. Not far from her burial place stands the simple, white house, the gift of her devoted son who saw to it that her declining days were days of comfort and peace. According to the little known of Mary Ball Washington, she was a woman remarkable for sound sense and force of character, and was possessed of the same reserve as her illustrious son. Of his military achievements she is said never to have spoken. She was proud, rather, of his character. Yet even in this regard, she contented herself with such modest comment as: "George was always a good boy." Widow With Six Children The death of Washington's father left Mary Ball Washington a widow without large means and with five children besides her eldest boy George, then 11 years of age. The farm on which they lived, near Fredericksburg, had been willed to George, but his mother was given the use of it during her life. The situation meant careful management on the part of the mother, and it obliged Trojan Coach Has a Birthday HOWARD HARDING JONES Howard Harding Jones, football coach of University of Southern California and a leading figure in the gridiron game since he started playing with Yale in 1905, was 46 years old Sunday. The anniversary marks the beginning of his twentieth season as a football coach in the "big league." He is now completing plans for the Trojan team, which will start practice on September 15. adopted son of Washington, has left a touching description of this last time that Washington saw his mother alive. "You'll See Me No More" He spoke the usual words of looking forward to seeing her soon again, but, in the description of Custis, she answered, "You shall see me no more; my great age and the disease that is fast approaching my vitals, warn me that I shall not be long in this world." Her prediction was only too true. Her great son was inaugurated in March, 1789. Less than six months afterward, on August 25, that year, his mother died in her eighty-fifth year, a victim of cancer. Christian Science Lesson-Sermon "Christ Jesus" will be the subject of the Christian Science Lesson-Sermon Sunday, in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston, Mass. One of the scriptural selections in the lesson-sermon includes verses from John, relative to an experience of Christ Jesus at Jerusalem: "Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, how long dost thou make us doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not; the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me . . . I and my Father are one . . . If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. But if I do though ye believe not me, believe the works; that yo may know, and believe that the Father is in me, and I in Him. A correlative excerpt from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, states: "The oppsite site and false views of the people hath from their sense Christ's sonship with God. They could not discern His spiritual existence." The average man doesn't know much about "short term credits." The system he has the most experience with is a dollar down and fifty cents a week the rest of your life." Widow With Six Children The death of Washington's father left Mary Ball Washington a widow without large means and with five children besides her eldest boy George, then 11 years of age. The farm on which they lived, near Fredericksburg, had been willed to George, but his mother was given the use of it during her life. The situation meant careful management on the part of the mother, and it obliged young George Washington to act as the head of the family, to prepare himself to earn his own living, and meanwhile to help his mother support the family. As George grew up, prospered, and entered on his own career, he saw to it that his mother lived in comfort and security. Though he lived some distance away at Mount Vernon, he paid regular visits to her in Fredericksburg, and she was first in his mind after every signal achievement. His diary and memoranda of accounts bear witness to his continued interest in her welfare. Mother and Son Meet The George Washington Bi-centennial commission refers to one of these occasions. It was after the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown, the event that virtually ended the Revolution and guaranteed victory to the American cause. Washington proceeded to Fredericksburg to call on his mother. Leaving Lafayette and the other distinguished French generals who accompanied him, the American commander-in-chief went alone and on foot to his mother's house. What they said to each other has never been recorded, but the meeting may well be imagined. Afterward, Mary Ball Washington was persuaded to appear at a ball in Fredericksburg, in celebration of victory. All were so impressed by her dignity and simple, yet commanding manner that Lafayette is recorded as exclaiming, "If such are the matrons of America, she may well boast of her illustrious sons." Saw Her for Last Time Washington saw his mother for the last time shortly after his election as first President of the United States the honor that crowned all the others he received and merited from a grateful people. Before leaving Mount Vernon for his inaugural in New York, then the national capital, the newly-elected President traveled to Fredericksburg to present himself to his mother.
