simplicity Of dress at commencements.
More than 100 girls have been gradu-

without exception every girl in the
high school wore plain white, without
the suggestion of color. In but one or
two instances hair ribbons were worn,
and In these cases simple white bows
adorned the hair.
The puffs and curls frowned upon at
former graduations were few. Mrs.
Ellen Spencer Mussey, vice president Of
the Board Of Education, Is pleased with
the reform.

BELIEVES WILSON
HAS BENEFITED BY
THE CONTROVERSY
Senator Chamberlain Makes
Statement In Defense of
Governor.

Echoes of the wilson watterson.
Harvey controversy still are being
heard. In q statement at Columbia
3. c., Colonel Watterson charged Gov
ernor Wilson once more with not dar-
ing to face the facts. He insisted that
ne, Watterson, had been acting
throughout with the knowledge and ap-
proval of Colonel Harvey. In fact, he
says, Colonel Harvey has been insis-
tent on the exposure of the facts.
Chamberlain's Defense.
Senator Chamberlain of Oregon has
come out In O statement in which he
declares the affair has resulted in bene-
fit to Governor Wilson and he predicts
the governors nomination.
II have followed the affair with deep
interest," Senator Chamberlain said.
"While the actual issue involved at
the beginning was not in itself SO i'm
portant, 1t developed into a genuine and
severe test of Governor Wilson's poise.
frankness, and honesty, as well as. of
his ability to maintain himself before
the country during a trying period.
"Governor Wilson emerged from the
injuring him. the Watterson incident
has SO greatly helped that from this
time on / look for increasing interest
the country over In the candidacy of
Governor Wilson for the Democratic
Nomination for President.
"1n fact. 1t may easily be that this
incident Will prove to have been the
one thing needed to advance the Wilson
interests to the point of present cer-
taintv that he will be the party nomi-
nee"
Phase of Question.
what was your impression, Senator,
Of that phase that involved the question
OF loyalty Of Wilson to his friends?"
was asked.
Il believe that it demonstrated. first,
that Wilson was not disloyal to his
friends His letters to and from Colonel
Harvey clearly show that-and that he
Is red-blooded, too, But, In the second
place, the whole affair reveals that
Governor Wilson Is big enough man
to regard the public interest as para
mount even to personal friendships.
Any man Of normal nature lcves his
friends, and will, when he can, do them
favors."
