As slketched by one of the reporters OF
his campaign, DIT. Wilson els lank man,
neither careless nor very careful in his
dress. don't believe there is much
muscle on his bones, but those bones are
very large. When he stands his coat fits
loosely on his shoulders. Maybe his tailor
measured him for Il; but 1 fancy that
instead he told him to go IN and take a
look at the two pegs in his clothes closet
where he hangs it up Of nights. His cheek
bones are high, ike a Multnomah Indians,
and he runs to chin excessively.
"Dr. Wilson'S face is definitely four
cornered, with hard bone not far beneath
the skin at any OF the corners. His hair
is thin and CRAVING, and may possibly be
combed regularly. There is a wrinkle
just between his heavy eyebrows deep
enough to be a knife scar and the lines
which curve down and outward from his
nose, calllpering his mouth, are very defi-
mite and deep.
1T is a kindly face, however; about as
far from that which one would pick out
as belonging to a college president as any
have recently encountered. can imagine
how the many wrinkles which enmesh his
eyes and those faint lines indicated upon
his forehead could deepen into an eN-
tremely fearsome frown for undergraduates
who had transgressed, or for the grafters
who do not make him despair

The New Jersey campaign was unique
among the many state contests this fall
It was a campaign OF instruction, an APP
peal to thinking people. There were no
personalities no vituperation. At the out
set DR.. Wilson set high his standard Of
discussion Of public issues, and his OPP
ponents were obliged to follow, His thor
Ough knowledge Of national and state con-
ditions was no less astonishing TO the
multitude than his clear forceful method Of
presentation. He did not flatter his au-
diences, nor tell one class that which policy
required to be withheld from the other.
The old leaders OF his party, fearful at the
start, soon discovered that instead Of set
ting up" a raw recruit they had enlisted
an experienced drillmaster and commander.
To his opponents who frequently hecllled
him with questions he answered yes" or
mo" with surprising quickness Take, for
example, the quiz about the new national
ism as expounded by Theodore Roosevelt.
Discussing that issue DR.. Wilson made this
point: "The new natiOnalism means
something. 1 do not know exactly what,
| it has been defined so often by various
persons and never twice alike. But 1 can
tell you one thing that it means: 1t means
that IL states cannot reform certain things
