ON LONG HONEYMOON
Eord "Obey" Is Omitted From the Scr.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 25.-(Spec-
ial)-Simplicity with dignity-the
same ideal which President Wilson has
cherished for his administration since
its inauguration-was the predominant
note in the marriage late today of Jes-
sic Woodrow Wilson, second daugh-
ter of President and Mrs. Wilson, and
Francis Bowes Sayre. -
The ceremony was. solemnized II
the historic east room, maiestical,y y
!. decorated in masses of flowers for the
occasion, at 4:S0 O'clock this after
noon.
Notwithstanding its official brill
liancy, there was distinct touch of
4omeliness in the days affair. The
Rev. Sylvester w. Beach, pastor OF
the First Presbyterian church at
Princeton. where Miss Wilson long
taught a Sunday school class and
where the Wilson family worshipped
a score of years, performed the cere-
mony. The maid of honor was the eld-
est daughter of the president, Miss
Margaret Wilson. The bridesmaids
were the brides youngest sister, Miss
Eleanor Wilson, and Miss Mary G,
White, of Baltimore; Miss Adelina
Mitchell Scott, of Princeton, and Miss
Marjorie Brown, of Atlanta, the last
relative, and the others chums of
the bride.
The best man was Dr. Wilfred r.
Grenfel, with whom Sayre spent
many months ministering to the sick
and needy ON the rock-boundLabra-
do coast. The ushers were the
groom's college mates-Benjamin B.
Burton, Of New York; DR.. Dewitt

Dr. Gilbert Horrax, of Montclair, II.

INDEFINITELY POSTPONED.

BY a decisive vote, yesterday morn
ing, the senate indefinitely postponed
the Whiteside bill for consolidation.
The endeavor to revive the question,
by a motion to reconsider, VAS de-
feated. The division of the senate
was IS to y.
1t is not to be supposed that this
action will cause the advocates OF
consolidation completely to abandon
their campaign. They AVE a lot of
material ready for distribution which
they will not care to waste. They
cannot stop short. But we anticipate
that this action of the senate forecasts
the fate of whatever further effort
may be made by the consolidationists.
Two other suggestions have beer
made, which are likely to come up for
consideration before the sessions close.
one of these is the Durston plan for
unification. The other is the proposal
to settle for all time the agitation of
this question, by making permanent
the present locations Of the states in
situations of higher education.
We are told that these two matters
are receiving attention at Helena. We
hope they will be given careful con-
sideration. Out of the present discus
sion should come some plan which will
dispose of this disturbance of the work
If the Institutions involved. There
can be no question as to its interfer-
cnce with the proper work of the
schools. Let us get settled. Let us
have a fixed income for the university
and let US get the management Of the
affairs of all these institutions out of
the hands Of politics. Then we shall
be in shape to proceed with educa-
tional work.

FOR MISS RANKIN.

The suffraeists of Missoula will
! make their celebration of the passage
CT the suffrage bill the occasion for a
tribute to a Missoula young woman
| whose services in the u have been
conspicuously successful. On Satur-
day evening the equal-rights people
will hold a banquet, which will be
quite as much in compliment to Miss
Rankin as in celebration of a victory.
Miss Rankin has wrought valiantly in
the suffrage campaign, not only in
Montana, but in other states. east and
vest. She is distinctly the American
type of suffragist-she has led no
riots, she has thrown no bricks, she
has been always womanly. Missoufa
is proud of this. her daughter, who is
now summoned to q broader field of
wishes Of her townspeople. She en-
joys the rare distinction of having
dict that Missoula win participate,
quite generally, in the Saturday-night
affair in Miss Rankin's honor. The
progressive-party banquet which was
scheduled for that night has been
postponed, that there might be no con-
flict of attractions.

PERSONAL APPEAL

To all of the good people of Mis-
soula: 1t has been brought to my
personal attention the great, noble and
good work being done in our city by
the Kings Daughters, an organization
Of noble women whose very hearts and
souls go out to assist suffering hu-
mainly; noble, pure, humanity-loving
women who leave their homes and
families to lei assistance and aid to

have placed small contribution boxes
In different business houses in the city,
asking for small contributions to assist
them in their ~tireless labors. l desire
to make a personal appeal to every
citizen in Missoula who can afford to
to drop a small piece of money in one of
these receptacles. and when you do.
know in your w heart that it Is go
ing to relieve distress Of the widowed
mother and the orphan child. God
only knows when the scythe OF misfor-
tune may fall upon any of us, n to
those who can afford it, as stated. let
us do without one of two drinks
or cigars Or some olner small personal
want or need, and contribute just a
small amount to this great and good
work Do 1t today. I beg Of you, and
1t will lend encouragement to this
noble organization. Sincerely yours,

HAVE A PROGRAM.

Speaking before a large audience of
local churchmen. Wednesday night, a
DISTINGUISHED lecturer advised his hear
or. to have a program" He told thcrl
mat success in church work, as n any
work, demands that the work shall be
systenlatized and that the sy stenl, once
established, be followed exactly. 1t
was good advice-good for church
workers, good for school workers, good
for business work crs, good for all
workers.
All of us waste TOO much time in

lost motion in his machine, proceeds

cndeaVor in any line. The man who
concentrates his effort n follows
closely the line of action which he
has laid down for himself, wins out

often as does the haphazard worker.
The reason so many bettermen'
plans fail is that they are undertaken
with no definite program. The pur-
pose is there and the energy is there
but the one is lost sight of and the
other is dissipated in the lost motion

ANOTHER QUESTION
OF

Editor Missoulian-At this time when

many references to the consolidation
question. and education, it, perhaps, is
not amiss for me to draw your atten-
tion to a recent paragraph in your pa .
per under the heading of Deborgia
news.
am a land owner in the county and
pay my taxes. I ave six children Of
school age who, when weather parmits,
all drive to school, a distance Of three
and a half miles. Owing to the heavy
SHOWS this winter the IA has been
blocked. and my children prevented
from going to school. The item of
news referred to, stated that the school
commissioners in this district refused
to spend a cent in clearing the roads
SO that children could go to school.
At this time, when there is talk of
ar automobile roa from coast to coast,
and a likelihood that a part of it will
be the same road that my children
travel seven miles a day to and from
school; when various towns IN the
county are asked TO contribute towards
the expenses of the campaign for get
ting such road, it seems to me that II
money can be spent for such d pur.
pose, a little of it might we'll be ex-
rended for the clearing away Of the
snow, so that children living some dis
lance from the schools can continue
with their education in the winter ~

Christianity is the most vital force
in changing China. 1t may not be more
powerful in itself than any n ele-
ment, but it is by long odds the Invest
factor in that interesting composite
known as China and the Chinese peo-
pie. 1t is a matter of dispute just how
influential pure Christianity Is. The
term pure Christianity" in the cur
rency of oriental discussion means
straight religious work, and it is
doubted If mere theological preach
ments by the missionaries had as much
to do with the official dropping Of Con-
%fucianism as the basis of public office
holding, as some Christian enthu-
lasts claim. Nevertheless, Chris
tianity is the greatest force in China,
and this is because Of the system OF
western education which it gave to the
Chinese. This opened their minds to
the world outside. and the in]trospection
which naturally follows showed them
in turn the terrible of the
cult of their ancestors. The Chinese
hav accepted the Christian schools
and the Christian hospitals more read
lily than they have the Christian the
ology. This does not mean that
Christianity has not grown in China.
AS a matter of fact, both Catholic and
protestant workers have done noble
work which has been singularly sue
cessful when consideration is taken of
the great difficulties encountered and
surmounted. Only one who has felt
the Gibraltar-like Chinese mind can
appreciate the value of the apparently
small results of Christian endeavor in
the land of Cathay. 1t Is not unlikely
that from now on the cause of Chris
tianity will grow nightly in COMPARE
son with the results of the past.
~Disregarding the ancient HISTORIAN
church, Roman Catholicism was the
first western Christian sect to get in
touch with what is now China and it's
outlying territory. It's first envoy to
the Mongolians was John de Plano

in 1854 between the contending Catho-
lies, Mussulmans, Taoists, .Buddhists
and HISTORIANS. The Catholic Daniel
Webster downed all his opponents ex-
cept the Taoist. Thereupon Mangus
said to the Catholics:
w tartars recognize one God, al
whose beck we live and die. and to
whom our hearts are always converted
But, just as God has given us several
fingers to our hands, so has he
sraciously granted to men many ways

Nevertheless, in 1911 the great Kub-
lal Kahn wrote to Pope Nicholas III,
asking for 100 priests and scholars who
could teach art inc translate strange
documents. AT the same time, how
ever, he made a HISTORIAN governor
of Chinkiang fu. In 1885 the first
