THE NEW WOODKOW WILSON", ii Washington, July 20?Is the Wood- 1 row Wilson who has just returned 1; irom the accomplishment of a task P that is so stupendous as to stagger n the imagination, a worn, harassed e and haggard man, because of the t labors through which he lias passed? t This is a question that occurs in a the mind of many individual who are a interested in the work of the Ameri- b can president, and the natural sup- a position is that he shows the effects h of his six months in Europe, months that were filled with much labor and d many contentions; which were filled o with possibilities so great that any a man might have been excused for s lying awake at night because of them, b A close inspection of the president Q upon those occasions when jour- n nalists in Washington are to meet ii him quite intimately entirely dispels j11 this illusion of the nerve b racked |a man, worn down by the travail u through which he has passed. The n ' Woodrow Wilson of today is a rug- P ged, vigorous and healthy individual a of glowing spirit and general person- u 'ality, a man on whose brow there is no furrow of care. The Woodrow Wil- 11 son of today is obviously a happy and s optimistic man, well satisfied with con ' ditions as he finds them in the world. v In fact the appearance of the pres- f ident is a matter of marvel to those b who have watched him closely during a the six years of his incumbency in P the White House. He had occupied s the highest official position in the a United States but a few days w^en he asked those journalists who ha- *= bitually write of government mat- 1 ters to meet h;m in the East room of 0 the White House. At that time those t men who bad not formerly known a him were very much interested in v taking a measure of the man and getting first hand impressions of the f sort of individual he was. The ini- f pression received that day was that 6 the president was a man not greatly v t-.ii.., i? ?... u..* a liicuiitrq iu DC ?pair uui 51*1115 luai general impression. His face was long 0 and bony and carried with it a de- * gree of the austere. In those days Woodrow Wilson was still a good deal 1 of the college professor type. Like- v wise in his manner did he reflect the a results of the life he had led, his gen- f iality did not come easily and there s was in contact with him an occasional 0 assertion as though of authority, a a certain sharpness and autocratic man- ? ner of nptech. This also was probably ^ due to a lifetime spent in the class- " room where his authority was undis- 1 puted, and did not quite fit into the a new conditions. This Woodrow Wilson has long ^ ceased to exist. Physiognomists hold 11 that the facial expression of a man s changing from one manner of life to another can not materially change in a less than five yeais. A laborer for a instance, becoming a lawyer remains h a laborer in facial expression for half s a decade. Likewise, the college pro- g fessor becoming an executive, a man g of action, does not immediately take s on the appearance of the man of ac- \ tion, though he may actually be that c I 1 -J * Twenty | 20 Days. | 77? s 71 | is more nee | A Rev: V Twentv-five vear ? ^ the very fibre of the r Y iness should result f] through it's policy of Y looking after our cus y they are the result c Y of patronage has bee Y fidence is stronger t( Y us to hasten to clear c Y third, a half, and in so Y stocks and letting ea Y stock will be reduced.

Two years ago that transfor- w nation was well on it-s way, and was h; asily noted by those who continued o watch the president. But today, at r( he time of his return from six months broad, six monhs of such experience tc s few men have ever had since time (j egan the transformation is complete, Sl nd Woodrow Wilson is as unlike the tj nan he was as you or as I am. js In the first place, he is physically j,, afferent. His entire form has filled u ut and has lost its sparness and its fo( ngularity. He was always an up- a, tanding man, nearly six feet in di leight and or quite aamiraDie jhivsi[tie. Today he is rather a large man, p] iot spare at all and well rounded. He C{ s not quite so upstanding as he has 0, Dst his stiffness and let down a bit jr nd acquired a lounging ease that he 0l ised never to have. He carries rather p, nore flesh than is needed for correct nj hysical proportion. That flesh looks 0' , bit soft as though he had been a uissing his exercise. E The change in his facial expression A s even more marked. His face is e( till exceedingly long and one is like- p] y to be impressed with that length tc t'hen viewing the president directly n] rom the front. His face is still a ^ lit bony and angular, but if one looks e( t him from the side he loses the im- jj: ression of angularity altogether, and ai ees a face that is quite softened by p( padding of wholesome flesh. 0] There is today a marked ruddy ^ low of health beneath the skin of ti he president. He is, of course, more 0j r less sunburned from his trip across jc he ocean, but beneath the suburn is ti , complexion that is almost ruddy, Cj k-here once it was inclined to be sal- tl ow and colorless. One looks in vain tj or those lines of care that are to S( ound in the face of the man who is tl liven to worry and suffers from ner- p] es. The president is blandness itself tl nd the smil e seems to find its place ai n his countenance where it is en- ti irely at home. tl One gets the impression in watching p; he president, that there is a man fhose faculities are all at their best tt.._ n nu an >rry inuruugiwy anve. ms gj ace breaks readily from one expres- t? ion to another and his eyes are those f the alert man of action. They are f? lso the eyes of a man who is very / ure of himself and very confident t'ith relation to the tasks he has in g and. His whole attitude is that of he man who meets every proposal nalytically and accepts it or rejects it t in merits. He knows exactly what e is about, has his eye on the goals j( ie proposes to reach and is driving w traight ahead. jt In appearance Woodrow WHson is a , younger man than he was six years go when he became president. His lair has about the same degree\ of h parseness, but it has not tended to o :row much whiter. Around the frin- ^ ;es where it is most abundant it is . till more brown tha ngrey. Woodrow Vilson is still nearer a brown haired nan than a white haired man.

As one would classify the Wood-: >w Wilson of six years ago as the pe of college professor so would he ?day instinctively put him down as ie man of action, the executive. The lggestion of austerity and scholascism is entirely gone from him. He today the incisive buzz saw superitendent of a huge plant, and he is ie sort of superintendent you may E? sure will get around over the plant nd see what the straw bosses are oing. This entire transformation of the resident insofar as appearance is )ncernedf is of the change that has ver the man mentally. It is interestig to compare this man in the face F the work that he has done in the ast six months, with the somewhat rrrow provincial who was quite withut an international view when he beuue president 0f the United States, ven in those days there were men in merica who were intensely interestI in the Hague conferences and in lans for establishing a world court > handle international disagreelents. For three years after Wilson acame president these men watch1 anxiously for some expression from im which would indicate that he had ny grasp at all of the stupendous oportunities that lay in international rganization. But in those three years foodrow Wilson made no utterance lat indicated he had any knowledge f or any interest in any movement loking toward making it possible lat nations should establish agenes to handle their disputes and sete them on the basis of justice, as le disputes 0f individuals have been ittled for centuries. To these men le international education which the resident has received in the last iree years or four years is a wonder t which to marvel. To them his inter. 1 ?i?j _ *1? ?

So does the study of this man, a lan who brought a well trained and ;raight thinking mind to the biggest isk and the most stupendous oppormity in the world, become a most iscinating study. Woodrow Wilson at 6, a man for whom there were probbly 10,000 duplicates in the United tates, got the greatest opportunity lat ever came to a human being, and nder the influence of that opportun,y, despite his nearly three score ears has expanded and bloomed >rth, as might a shrub on the desert hen the waters of irrigation reached s roots. But today he would require n introduction to those who knew im a short decade ago when unnoted e rode his bicycle over the byways f England, and studied the convenional points of historic and literary iterests, an elaboration of which in he classroom was his chief purpose i the world. \oq nn Add l/LI Sale Starts Sc xiversary Sale < 0 COMBATP ' Business isiness.
