ature President Wilson changed his
plans late this evening and decided not
to go back to Washington tomorrow.
No day has been definitely decided
upon for lis return TO the Capitol, but
il is said TO be the Presidents intention
TO stretch his brief vacation here so as
not to be in Washington until Monday
morning.
II al depends, however, on what
takes place at the capital, for if Mr..
Tumulty, the Presidents secretary.
sends word 10 the President that his
presence at the capital is m"erative he
will leave here at once.
The resident arose before { o'clock
this orning, and as he snuffed the
cool crisp air. so different from the
kind he encountered on his first day
here, he evidently made up his mind TO
make the most of it, for before night
fall came he had en- more than nine
hours > the open. About a third Of
this time he spent in the golf links at
Woodstock and tho remainder went IN
automCbiling, which included a trip TO
Hanover. y. H., where he inspected
both the old and the new buildings OF
historic Dartmouth College.
President Views Dartmouth.
Although the summer school opened
at Dartmouth to-day. none Of the stu
dents or townspeople knew that The
President was in their midst because
MI Wilson kept his plans carefully TO
himself until 4 few minutes before lie
started from Harlakenden with Mrs.
Wilson, about $50 o'clock this after
noon.
The President did not leave his auto
mobile at the college, but Contented
himself with admiring the Georgian
architecture OF the new buildings,
which lined one side Of the Commons,
and the quaint but restful architecture
Of the other buildings-most Of them
more than Z century old-On the other
side Hanover is twenty-four miles
from Cornish and as the President is
not fond of speeding he did not reach
Harlakenden until almost I o'clock.
The President was on the golf links
at Woodstock before 10 o'clock this
morning. and with Dr. Grayson as his
opponent he spent two hours and half
hitting the little gutta percha ball over
the little nine-hole course in the valley
Of the Connecticut. The President was
attired in white duck trousers, with a
natty golf cap. and he seemed to enjoy
himself immens ely. No score was kept

is not known whether or not an invi-
tation to use these links was extended
TO the President. At any rate, Mr..
Wilson evidently preferred to ride
eighteen miles to Woodstock.
The first intimation that the Presi-
dent was going to Woodstock came
about o'clock this morning, when the
White House automobile, with a Secret
Service man in the front seat, and the
President and DR.. Grayson in the rear
seat, passed through Windsor, with a
bag Of golf sticks indicating their des-
tination. There were only two other
players on the links, but the Secret
