Greetings Infomaniacs,

Today we honor two great presidents – George Washington and
Abraham Lincoln. Some of you may have the day off work for
this holiday, which has been unofficially declared as
“President’s Day.” A little more trivia on this follows
below…

Enjoy!

                    TODAY’S MYSTERY QUOTE

QUOTE: “Eternity alone can reveal to the human race its
debt of gratitude to the peerless and immortal name of
Washington.”

HINT: (1831-1881), 20th President of the United States.

***********************************************************

                        RANDOM TIDBITS

Washington’s Birthday was celebrated publicly for the first
time in the late 18th century, while George Washington was
still president.

                             ***

Washington’s Birthday became official in 1885, when
President Chester Arthur signed a bill making it a federal
holiday.

                             ***

In 1968, Congress passed the Monday Holidays Act, which
moved the official observance of Washington’s birthday from
Feb. 22 to the third Monday in February. Some reformers had
wanted to change the name of the holiday as well, to
Presidents’ Day, in honor of both Lincoln and Washington,
but that proposal was rejected by Congress.

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Since the third Monday in February can only occur between
Feb. 15 and Feb. 21, the holiday is always after Lincoln’s
birthday and before Washington’s birthday, without ever
coinciding with either.

                             ***

While the name change from Washington’s Birthday to
President’s Day has never been authorized by Congress, it
has gained a strong hold on the public consciousness, and
is generally used on calendars, in advertising, and even by
many government agencies.

                             ***

While most states have adopted Washington’s Birthday, a
dozen of them officially celebrate Presidents’ Day. A
number of the states that celebrate Washington’s Birthday
also recognize Lincoln’s Birthday as a separate legal
holiday.
