V^EOKUK WASHINGTON, soldier
>/ 1 statesman, has eclipsed George
ill Washington, the traveler?yet
as a traveler, and as a geographer
who gained his Information at
L hand, the Father of Ills Country
'earned the right to another "first."
Many places Washington visited have
wn unaware of the fact; other places
there he is reputed to have "stopped"
?r "spent the night" are far from the
terlfled records of his travels. ^ This
Information developed when the map
makers of the National Geographic sodtty
started on the extensive research
task?research consuming more than
it year?to record all of Washington's
Journeys on a single map.
Thorough checks was made of the
diaries of Washington, of the'contemporary
accounts of his travels, and in
many cases personal visits had to be
made t<> place.-, and musty courthouse
files scanned, because of places that
have changed names, or have their
names duplicated.
The compilation of this Information
shows that George Washington traveled
over a larger area than any other
official of Ills time. Ills travels extended
from the heart of Georgia to
Kittery. Maine. Westward, he went to
the vicinity of Lake Erie, In Pennsylvania;
to the nelghborhod of Point
Pleasant, in West Virginia, and to
Gallipolis, Ohio.
_ Of three sea voyages Washington
made, one was to foreign soil, Barbados.
But the most ama*ing aspect of
bis travels, perhaps, are his Journeys
on horseback?Journeys ranging from
Virginia to Fort Le Boeuf, and from
Mount Vernon to Boston. However, so o
far as records show, he did not visit'
the birthplace of his mother, Kpplng
Forest
Long Horseback Trips.
Washington's horseback trips were
often arduous. He was known to
. iverag<35 miles a day for .periods of
more than n week. Once he rode 500
miles In 10 days. That trip wjjs from
Cumberland, Md.. to Williamsburg, Va?
and two days of the 16 were "time
out," waiting for an armed escort.
He carried the pay for Braddock's .
army tn his saddlebags.
Horses often broke under the strain,
when public duty called Washington
to move with dispatch. For Instance,
when riding t<> Join General Braddock,
upon reaching the vicinity of what is
now Charles Town, W. Va., he reporteifjgjiat
lie killed one horse outtight
and had rendered the three
others he had brought along unfit for
aervitr. -
When there was no urgency of pubtic
business his horses fared better.
After his trip to his western lands In
1*84, during which be had twice crossed
the Appalachians and had been so far
from civilization that he could get no
corn 'for his horse (and nothing or
only boiled enrn for himself), he sets
down with satisfaction that he had
traveled ftso miles between the first
lay of September and the fourth day
of October, on the same horses.

Traveling expenses were low in
those days, Virginia had a law that
rates for accommodations In each
county should be tlxed by the court
thereof, and that any keeper of an
ordinary not observing these rates
should be heuvlly lined, half the One
going to the Informer. The Augusta
county court order book shows that a
hot dinner cost 9 pence; a cold meal,
0 pence; lodging, with clean sheets, 3%
pertce; twent.v-four-hour stabling and
fodder for a horse, 6 ptmce; and corn,
or oats, per gallon, 0 pence. When It
Is reihembered that the Virginia shilling
was worth 10% cents of our
money, we see that a hot dinner cost
12% cents and other service In proportion.
?>
From Staunton, Washington rode to
Fredericksburg by way of Charlottesville,
making the 111-mile journey In
three days and still being tit enough
to pldy billiards the evening he arrived.
On Wednesday, February 4, 17<r>0,
1 Washington set out for Boston to lay
a citse of military precedence before
Gen. William Shirley, commander in
chief of the British forces In America.
He reached Philadelphia the following
Sunday, and took five or six days to
look around the city.
"He apparently made the 90 Intervening
miles to New York In two dayB.
And what must the New York of that
day have meant to the young Virginian,
who had spent the last three years
mostly In the primeval forests or fighting
French and Indians on the savage
frontiers! r>
A Visit to Now York.
There was the "Microcosm" to visit
described at the time as a world in
miniature, which took 22 years to
build. Washington's enthusiasm for
It Is written In his accounts, for on
two seperate occasions he enters items
^'for treatg. Ladies to ye MKcrocos)m."
There was also a rout at
Mrs. Baron's, and tips to the servants
In the household of Beverley Robinson,
son of the speaker of the Virginia
house of burgesses. The young .officer
was always punctilious in tipping the
servants in households where he was
entertained, and equally so In entering
these items in his account books?two
traits that have aided a great deal In
tracing his travels.
Two days before he was twenty-four
years old he set out on the last leg of
his Journey to Boston, and the "Pennsylvania
Gazette" carried the news
that "Colonel Washington, of Virginia,
but last from Philadelphia, left this
city (New York) for Boston."
On his way to Boston he stopped
with a Mr. Malbone, in Rhode Island.
He entered a tip for the latter's servants
of ?4 and another item of ?o for
a broken bowl.
In Boston he stopped at Cromwell's
Head tavern. He saw General Shirley,
who decided the question of command
at Fort Cumberland In his favor;
visited a man of war in the harbor,
lost some money at cards at the governor's
house, and then set off for
Virginia. But at the governor's he had
met such neople jis John Adams, and
* made a deep Impression by his recital
of conditions in western Virginia,
Maryland and Pennsylvania. Unconsciously
he again was playing into the
hands of destiny, for John Adams was
one of those who 19 years later Joined
with Thomas Johnson of Maryland In
making him commander in chief of
the American forces.
. . go rv?y of - the Frontier.
Another Interesting phase of Washington's
travels began when he determined
to make a personal survey of
the frontier with a view to establishing
a chain of forts at the Important
passes, in the hope of damming the
Indian tribe behind fhe Allegheny divide.
During the French and Indlnn war
days villages and towns near the
frontier had not yet begun to take
shape, except In the case of county
seats Places were known as John
Smith's Plantation," "Willi SMU's
MMIU##f 'TaskerTosh's Fort, HlgLlck,
etc The changing ownerships of five
generations, together with the ?ubst Ration
of bridges for.fords, have oblltej^.
ated these names from map and memory
alike.
v jt was necessary, therefore, to g
patiently through scores of J *?
land-grant boolca. dozens of old deeds
books, and all the survey records that
have aurvived, in order to find ou?
where the early aettlen lived. :U,

Treasure Hunters Still
Seeking Gold in Mexico
Ever since the duys of the Spunlah
conquest legends of vqjd hidden in
the hills of Mexico huve survived.
Fortune hunters have dreamed of coming
upon suddon riches In Hidden
caches.
In dqrown day many treasure hunts
have befctt-^qrgftnir.ed; one American
seatt'her weiiKso far ns to organise
a ,s\.ock company to look for the
wealth Which legend says was
dropped hy the plumed serpent god,
Quetzukoatl, In his mythical flight
from the unknown city of Tula.
I'he Mexicans themselves jokingly
sny that, If only a portion of the oucient
treasure were recovered, the national
debt would he wiped out.
But It Is in Oaxaca, far to tho
south of the capital city, that the ancient
cry of ,U10I Dorado" has most recently
re-echoed, Hourly In HM2 a
Small party of archeologlsts, led hy
Alfonso Caso, tunneled Into an ancient
tomb of Monto Alhan, the "Whlto
City," that overlooks the pink and
whlto and blue town of Oaxaca. Gold
and Jewels ami human bones met
their gaze.
Hemlnlscont of the riches of legend- j
nry Alexleo, recalling the more celebrated
tombs of ancient Egypt, the
treasure tomb was rich by worldly
standards. Yet It promises to be
rlehor wljen valued by cultural standards.
In modern days the historical
value of such treasures far outweighs
any mere Jeweler's estimate.?Watson |

Life's Span Lengthened
by Freedom From Worry j
Two English explorers recently reported
the existence of a white tribe
in Tibet In Central Asia whose mem- j
hers are remarkable fur their Ion- I
gevity. They think nothing ofHlving
to he one hundred and ten or one
hundred and twenty years old and con- i
tlnue to marry at the age of seventyI
five or eighty. A happy and contentj.ed
people, members of this tribe are
I supposed to be descendants, of the
I ancient Chaldeans and revert back to
tribes of the earliest civilizations, says
the Life Extension Institute's monthly
journal, How to Live. Those of the
Tibet tribe live inothe mountainous i
regions In the winter and go to the
tropical valleys In the summer to gather
their harvests. According to the
explorers, Miss Cossley-Blat4 and Dr.
Irwin Baird, the most striking thing
about these people is their happy viewpoint
on life and the apparent complete
absence of the tension and
strnin, worry and fear that tend to
shorten the life span of modern Europeans
and Americans.

. Burglar* in Hard Luck
What happens when burglar meets
burglar? It Is easy to imagine two
men or more breaking Into a house
simultaneously, each being unaware of
the presence of the other. That did
happen in a west country mansion in
the early years of the present cen|
tury, when two old thieves, acqunlntI
ances at Dartmoor, where they had
| often talked of.this particular burglary,
; met in a drawing room almost packed
I with "swag."
[ Each accused his rival of treachery,
and In the fight which ensued they did
j each other so much damage that they
were not fully conscious they were
under arrest until a police surgeon had
been attending to -.them for some minutes.?London

Birds Help Farmers
Birds may help 'themselves to a
[ choice fruit or vegetable sometimes,
L but they help the farmer in turn. Protection
of birds should be almost InI
stinctive on the part of the farmer,
says a bureau of biological survey bulletln,
"Usefulness of Birds on the
Farm." When one kind of Insect becomes
so numerous In a region nr to
threaten the wholesale destruction of
vegetation, birds, as a rule, congre!
gate there and live largely on the
I Insects. Not only that, but the everyday
services of birds In consuming Insects
of all kinds and holding back the
threatening tide of Insect life, says
; the bulletin," are probably or even
greater significance.
Go6~<f"Wo?d for Blue Heron
Great blue herons and other fisheating
birds have been given"a clean
hill of health hy the biological survey,
which definitely has proved tho birds
get only a smalt proportion of game
or commercial fish and prey on the
enemies of spawn to a sufficient extent
to make them more beneficial
than harmful. Examination of al??mnchs
of birds Indicate that yellow
perch. catfish, suckers, minnows,
sticklebacks and the 'ike kinds of fish
were taken more frequently than
trout or other game fish. ' The birds
also eat dragon-fiy larvae, predacious
diving beetles and other types of Insects
harmful to young fry.
Tree Adopts Temple
In the dense forests of French Indochina
there IS a temple which has
stood for many centuries. Many
years ago a tree began growing from
soli which had lodged between the
cracks of the rocky roof. In the
.course of time the roots of this tree
^YwTfi*<l themselves around the temple.
The building Is believed to have been
erected about 1,000 years ago. Thefe
Is no record of when the tree began
to grew. Kerb year it taken a firmer
grip ujmn the little temple and ahoots
its roots farther and farther Into the
i surrounding ground until only the steps
| and the entrance are clear.

Investment of the power companies
