Washinbton, Sept. 27 (By the As sociated Press).-Woodrow Wilson fell a sick man two years ago to (ay. Since then he has passed un der the shadow of death and out of the White House. Thousands of Americans of what ever political faith recalled the an niversary of the beginning of the former president's illness and won dered what he was doing. Although he no longer figures in the daily headlines as he used to, Mr. Wilson still is "news." Therefore it seems appropriate on this occasion to tell the latest news about him. Mr. Wilson besides following the ways of a retired gentleman with a lively interest in the world's affairs, lives by the eight hour (lay which he once told congress was "adjudged by the thought and experience of recent years a thing upon which so ciety is justified in insisting, as in the niterest of health, efficiency and contentment." le aims to have eight hours for sleep, eight hours for work and eight hours for rela xation and keeps to the schedule pretty fairly. Seven o'clock in the mlorniig is about his rising time. Ie once again shaves anl bathes aione (n then takes some calisthenic exer lses , prescribed by his physicians as beneficial in restoringw the use of nerves aId manusces which were in paired durimig his breakdown.

M~e ie papers never are neglected whatever else may demand attention. Half 1% dozen of them are delivered early and: Mr. Wilson i- s them thor oughly. Work of Morning Then comes the morning's work. About that time the mail carrier, six days a week, delivers quite a packet of letters. They come from a variety of correspondents. Old friends of the administration days write in formal friendly notes or discourse on the politics of the day. Schools and colleges ask for donations; individ unis who feel the pinch of the times ask for sonic personal financial as sistance. Others discourse on the shortcomings as they see them of the Republican party. Autograph hunters are represented in large number. Various gentlemen who think their ailment is the same as Mr. Wilson's want to know the names of his physicians. Mrs. Wil son invariably goes over the morn ing's mail with her husband, some letters are turned over to a secre tary for reply, most of them the former president answers personally, dictatinjg to a stenographer who comes from his law olice every morning for the purpose. All of them he signs himself. The morning's work is done in the library. The old desk and chair and table Mr. Wilson used in his study at Princeton are there. Thousands of volumes which were packed away while he was ' the White House are there. Throut, . the windows may be seen the indigo blue strip of Vir ginia hills where he used to go golf ing, and not far away hangs a bag of golf sticks, a reminder of a bet ter day. P'rincetoni Colors Used The former president and his in separable companion always have their lunches served in the dining room. Then comes a nap of an hour and then, unless the weather is most inclement, motor drive; Mr. Wilson while in the White House became at tached to a certain automobile. It went back, as is the custoi each whom Mr. Wilson bought it as a "used car." He had it painted black, with orange trimmings-Princeton colors-and in his car which lie re gards as an old friend, lie goes driv ing into the countryside. He dislikes exploring new routes but rather en joys drivimg over the same ground at about the same time. Many folks in the country look for him; one quaint old lady recently held up the ear and presentedi a sweater which she had knitted; a little girl gave him a knitted lap robe. Prequently the car stops at a farm and - takes on a load of fresh vegetables, eggs and fowls. The party is always home before dark. Dinner is an informal affair; some timlnes there are guests, always old friends or associates. Mrs. Wilson no longer dresses for the occasion as she always did while Mr. Wilson was president; it is en famille. But, no meal in the Wilson household ever proceeds un til grace is said. Mr. Wilson has al ways said it himself, and months ago when he wis so weak he could hard ly stand without aid, and his voice was almost inaudible lie steadied hi imself on his chair and whispered the plea for divine blessing. Friends remember him ever at meals. Frequently a Potomac river fisherm n sends a rare specimen frc n.s catch. Once, another friend sent hin dulcks out of season and paid the game warden a handsome penalty. Reading or Amusement After dinner he goes in for read ing or amusement. Once a week Mr. Wilson has a motion picture show of his own anud frequently sees the feature film at the samnie time it is heing shown at the theaters down town. Occ'as;ionally ie goes to a rEN BROS.

Cashier I vaudeville show, his party taking seats in the last row, and entering and leaving with every effort to avoid ostentation. It rarely hqppens, however, that somebody fails to dis dover the visitors and a demonstra tions of handclapping always en sues. Evenings at home, however, are spent in the famil ycircles. The for mer president and Mrs. Wilson read a book together, or perhaps Mrs. Wilson reads aloud. Sometimes it is one of the detec tive stories of which Mr. Wilson was said to be so fond. They do not now form as a large as part of his read ing as may have been the case years ago. le takes to bed early, not to sleep, however, but to relax, to read and write. Like Mark Twain he does much reading and writing in bed. Propped up by pillows, and with a little writing board across his knees he reads and makes notes, some of them voluminous and in shorthand. Nobody knows what .they are about. le puts them carefully away. ' They are not notes for a book, which many expect. Not to Write Book Unless Mr. Wilson changes his mind decidedly he will write no re ply to Robert LAnsing or any one else who has criticised his policies. A writer wvho has been given access to Mr. Wilson's paper, of which there is most a ton, is writing a book, but it will be his own; not Mr. Wilson's. "I'll give you any material I have foi your book." Mr. Wilson told him. "I'll answer any questions you ask; but it's your book. I don't even want to see what you write. However the evening may be spent, however tired he may be, there is one thing the former president never neglects. It is the reading of a few verses of the Bible. When he says good night he invariably reads aloud some short passage -from the' book which always rests on the reading table at his bedside. Friends and admirers ask, what is Woodrow Wilson's real condition now? lie vill be 65 years of age next De-' cember and has passed through an or deal which few men survive. The measure of his progress toward health must be measured with those facts in mind. His normal weight in health while he was president was 180 pounds. lie showed little departure from that figure now. His eyesight is as good although he has discarded his favorite noseglasses for spec tacles. His hair has turned snow white, but it has not thinned. His al)petite is to robust to please his physicians. Last March when he left the White House with president-elect Iharding an attendant had to place his feet on each succeeding step from the portico. The other (lay he sent his attenglant away and climbed alone, not without some effort into his automobile, just to see if he could do it, and seermled pleased to find that he could. o0 ASKS FOR DISMISSAL Carson City, Nev., Oct. 3.-R. P. McArvn, counsel for Mary Pickford Fairbanks, motion picture actress, in her divorce proce!dings against Owen Moore, motion picture actor, moved in the state supreme court today for the dismisisal of an appeal from a judgment upholding the divorce. The appeal was filed by States Attorney General Leonard Taylor. McAfren argued that the appeal was not submitted to the court with in the statutory time limit and that the judgmiient is not subject to ap Peal . Deputy Attorney General Richards asked the court to examine the record in order that it might see for itself that the - ppeal was regular it, every way.
