cur. The marriage of the daughter of a
President is an event of more than So
cial Importance. for a peculiar senu-

ance. Miss Wilson has not been identi-
fed with the social life of Washington
long enough To become widely and in
tjmately acquainted. but she has i'm
pressed herself most effectively as pos
sessing unusual charms of personality
and character. The fortunate young man
who stands today by her side is an ad-
mirable type OF American manhood. in
tent upon making the utmost of his OPP
portunities in life as a factor for the
Detterment of his fellows. The best
wishes of Washington are extended TO
these young people on this their bright
and propitious wedding day and felicita-
tons are extended to the President and
Mrs. Wilson upon the first marriage in
their family circle, which promises so
well aSld has awakened SO wide a feeling
of kindly interest on the part of the
people.
