Contrary to popular belief, the observed federal holiday is actually called "Washington's Birthday." Neither Congress nor the President has ever stipulated that the name of the holiday observed as Washington's Birthday be changed to Presidents' Day. Additionally, Congress has never declared a national holiday binding in all states and each state decides its own legal holidays. This is why there are some calendar discrepancies.
MYTHS ABOUT WASHINGTON
If you think that George Washington chopped down a cherry tree and then admitted his wrongdoing by saying to his father, "O cannot tell a lie," think again. He didn't say it; he didn't even chop down the tree! Parson Mason Weems (1759-1825). one of Washington's biographers, made up the story hoping to demonstrate Washington's honestly. This tale is not the only myth about Washington. His wooden dentures? They weren't made of wood! Instead, they were made of hippopotamus teeth that had been filed down to fit Washington's mouth - holy smokes - seriously? Hippopotamus teeth!
