I t u r y . When
, Fairfax parish was created In 17G.r>,
i George Washington, then thirty-three
' yours of age, was one of Its first ves- j
j trymen. The church was finished in
17i3. and at the dedication Colonel
Washington subscribed ?3G 10s for a
j pew. the highest price paid. In the
1 vestry room the sexton displays the
record of the purchase of the pew.
The Washington pew. a roomy, com
| fortable pew of the square type, with
| seats running around three of Its sides
i and a little wooden gate inclosing the
I occupants. Is preserved just as it
looked when it was occupied by the
Washington family. On the rail is a
silver plate Inscribed with a facsimile
I of Washington's autograph. The seat
is now reserved for strangers. Nearly 1
| every visitor to the church sits in the
| pew for brief meditation while the
i caretaker points out features of the
j Interior. On the other side of the
aisle, half way down the church. Is
the pew that was occupied by the Lee
family, murked with a silver plate :
bearing a facsimile of tho signature
of Robert Edward Lee, commander.inchief
of tho Confederate army. In
front of the church are two mural tablets
containing the apostles' creed and
tho lord's prayer. They have re
main?a uncnnnged rrom the early days
of the church and are In old-fashioned
English lettering with "fa Instead
of "a"s. The communion table, the
chancel rail, the reading desk and
chairs were nil here in the days of
! Washington, and so was the chandelier
i with its 12 candlesticks. At the entrance
to the church is a tablet
enumerating the six colonels who
served as honorary pallbearers nnd
the lieutenants who- were active pall
bearers at the funeral of Washington.

A walk down a cobwebby passage or
two brings one to the old hotel. The
guide points out tho room in which
George Washington was offered a commission
in the British army by General
Uraddock. The chamber occupied
by Uraddock is exhibited, in the
center of it a camp bed used by the
British general during the French and
Indian wars. Then there is the "blue
room." mildewed and stained now. in
which General Hraddock held his conferences
with tho governors of six of
the colonies. This council between j
the governors and the British commanders,
General Hraddock and Commodore
Keppel, led to resolutions re-;
citing that, as the governors found it I
impossible to raise in their respective
colonies the revenue ussessed by King
George, his majesties ministers should
be asked to tlnd out some method of
compelling the raising of the revenue.
The congress of Alexandria contribut-1
ed largely to the discontent that led
to the revolution. As soon as the j
residents of the town heard of the
action of the council they met in the
eoilrthouse and passed a resolution

Superstition of Thirteen at Table,
Though 'fclot Absolutely Correct,
Seemed to Be Verified.
"The most Interesting case of thirteen
at table occuth in the biography
of Sir John Kverett Millals, who one
day unexpectedly found himself with
twelve guests at his table, one of
them being Matthew Arnold. A lady,
discovering the fact, declared that
she dared not remain after her painful
experience on a former occasion
when thirteen were present. To appease
her the artist persuaded one of
ills sons to take his meal In another
room. That son returned to tho room

say : 'The idea Is that, whoever leaves
the table first will die within a year;

In the cellar of the old hotel are
the dungeons in which captive Indians
were imprisoned and hanared and the
cellar room In which Carlyle lived for
many months as a precaution against ;
Indian attack. The building is of mas- i
sive stone, which was brought over |
! from England as ballast in ships, and ;
( it is in good preservation, although Its
interior is delightfully dilapidated
from the point of view of the antiquarian.
Until recently several pieces
of the original furniture were In the
rooms, hut they have been purchased
for a stage setting for a colonial
. drama. A fine mahogany stnlrcase in
the main hall is a delightful feature of
this colonial relic.
"On this here stairway," recites the j
young woman who acts as guide, j
"George Washington met his first de- |
feat. He was coming down these here i
stairs when the biff door there onened
and In Walked Miss Sally Fairfax on
her way to lead tho minuet. George
Washington was only nineteen years
old at the time, but he fell desperately

him. She rejected hi in. This was
the first and only defeat of tho great
general."
A flight of dark stone stairs leads
to the basement rooms, one of which,
Carlyle's room, is said by the guide
to have been conhected with the river
bank by an underground passage.
Nothing remains of this subterranean
way, it having been closed up to prevent
accidents.

THE CALL OF ABRAM.
LESSON TKXT-OEN. 12:1-?.
UOI-DEN TEXT?"I will Mess time. '
and make thy name srrent; and be thou J
a blesslnK."? Gen. 12:2. ,
The IfTbie doea not profesa to a bo
a chronological history of the world,
it does profess to reveal the steps of 1 (
the redemptive process of God where- |
by fallen man shall be justilled in his (
sight. So It is that we find but little
record of those hundreds of years between
this lesson and the events re- ,
corded in that of last week. We do, I*
however, find all that la essential in !
?.iH3 inmuii ui me piau 01 salvation. '
The cleansing of the earth by water
wan not for long, since we soon see
men relapsing into sin.
t. "Get thee out of thy country," vv. "
1-3. In this lesson we behold God ;
again selecting a single man who shall
be the head of a race. We doMiot of !
course infer that Abrain received an |
uudible call, though God could certain- 1
ly speak as he did on other and nutner- ;
ous occasions. God calls today by
those inward impulses and desires, by |
the voice of duty mil conscience, by !
the force of circumstances, and by
the word. The Jtible is God's great- '
est organ of speech.
Abram's Journey.
From Acts 7:2 we learn that he call j
first came to Abram when he was in
Mesopotamia, probably on the right
bunk of the Euphrates river, and that
his obedience to that call was only
partial. Abram got out of his own
wuhu; , uui nut iinu me uiiiu (iniip
iBod unto him. He journeyed probably
500 miles to the northwest but got
only ns far as Haran, which wus not
the promised land. It took, evidently,
the death of his father to move him
from that place, # Acts 7:4. Abram
went not knowing the kind of a land,
nor was ho told where it was to be
Heb. 11:8. i?1s call was threefold
(1) "for thy country," (2) "thy kindred."
(3) "thy father's house." Thus
we see that God demanded a complete j
separation from the o'd life, associations
and affections.
II. And Abram departed," vv. 4-6
"To obey is better than sacrifice and (
to hearken than the fat of rams," 1
Samuel 15:22. Abram had Just enough ;
faith to obey. We do not read that he i
asked for enlightenment; he saw not 1
the land, but he heard the call and
staggered not at the promise. He was
fully persuaded that Clod was able tc
perform and therefore it was reck
oned unto him for righteousness. Acts
7:20-22. But lie did not go alone. A1
ready God had begun to redeem his
promise (v. 2). Abram's character i
was such and his name of such Import '
that his nephew Ix>t accompanied
him. Lot, however, did not possess
that same faith nor a like character
Lot went "with him" and not, likr ,
Abram, with God. Abram also took |
his own family with him, and "all their
substance" v. 5. Nothing was left be ;
hind to tempt him to return. "And j
they went forth into the land of Ca- ,
naan," a type of the life into which
we are called in Christ Jesus. Thus
at once another part of the promise is j
fulfilled.
Hi. "And the Canaanite was in the
land," vv. 6-f>. All was not so easily j
settled for Abram. "Man that is bom
of woman is of few days nnd full ol
: troubles," no life is devoid of its test
j ing, Kph., 6:12, R. V., nnd so as Abram (
journeyed he met with enemies I
His Place of Rest.
'* Passing on from thenco he reached
a place of rest (v. 8). This Is a beau
tiful lesson on consecration.. Here Ik
Abram at "a mountain on the east ol '
Bethel" (house of God). Notice he If ;
on the east of Bethel facing westward (
the direction in which he has been
journeying, having Hal (ruins) at hlf I
back, and "there he builded an altar j
unto the Lord and called upon thf !
name of the Lord" (v. 8). Let. us al! '
remember to turn our backs upon tlif
world, and as v;e face the house, thf
j altar of God, render him undivided,
I whole hearted worship and service.
; God's appearance to Abram was again
| in connection with obedience. God is
just as ready to assure us as we jour
; ney through this humdrum, toilsome 1
i journey of life, ever ready to meet us
and to make us glad by the way.
Notice that Abram In a strange land
did not neglect God's altar like man)
a present-day pilgrim, uor to give tes j
tlmony of his faith for "called upor
the name of the Lord." Like thf
Christ who "had not where to lay his
' head," so Abram was a "pilgrim."
Fbr the older clnsses consider suet
questions as. Every Man's Life a Plan j
of God; Our Debt to Judaism; Our
Treatment of Others Who Are Fll i
grims, Strangers, e. g., immigrants
For the younger do not omit Loi |
and the dramatic, high-light picture ol
that journey from ITr of the Ohaldeet
(use a map). Emphasize how muck
better it is to be a blessing than tr
seek a blessing for one's self. "Not
vhat has happened to myself today J
But what has happened to othen
through me."
"So on 1 go. not knowing
I would not If I might;
I'd rather walk In the dark with Ood
Than walk alona in tho light;
I'd rather go by faith with Him
Than* go alone by sight."
