practically the whole class agreed.
Studies Law.
Out of Princeton Mr.. Wilson entered
the law school of the University Of
Virginia. He had decided to become a
public man and considered the law as
an anteroon to public service. There
are traditions of him in these days as
wearing flowing mustache and sing
ing tenor In n glee club. He was also
noted as debater. evidently having
profited 10y reading those orations. 1t
is not on record whether his class
mates IN the law school doomed him
for president or not. but they will
doubtless be heard from later.

HITCHCOCK is DISPUTED.
New Postmaster General Falls TO Find
Profits He Claimed.

Wasbington.-The postoffice de-
partment did not attain a condition
Of self-support during the administra-
ton of Postmaster General Hitchcock,
notwithstanding the widely adver-
tised announcement to that effect, al
though an apparent surplus was at
tanned by unjustiiable methods Of
bookkeeping The general morale
and efficiency Of the postal service
we're sacrificed to a ruthlessly en-
forced policy Of false economy for the
sole purpose Of presenting a showing
of sef-maintenance and after the at
tainment of this end, just before the
Inauguration Of the new administra.
ton, the policy was reversed. Long
standing vacancies were filed and
postponed promotions made; commit.
ments to fixed charges for long terms
were assumed in such a way as to
saddle the new administration with
the greatly increased expense during
months, II not years to come.
These are the important points in
the report Of committee Of postoffice
officers which has made a minute
survey" OF the departments general
condition. The report is addressed to
Postmaster General Albert Sidney
Burleson, who made it public, and is
signed by Daniel c. Roper, Joseph
Stewart, A. M. Dockery, James l.

pectively first, second, third and
fourth assistant postmasters general
and chief clerk of the department.
The substance OF the claim OF the
Hitchcock administration was that a
deficiency of approximately $17,600,O0O
in 1909 was entirely eliminated, and
that surplus Of over 100000 was
attained for the fcal year 1911. The
reports OF the survey" are declared
to show, on the contrary, that at no
time has there been a legitimate sur
plus in the postal revenues since the
fiscal year 1889, and that instead OF
a surplus of approximately S219,O
in 1911, there was, in fact an actual
deficiency of considerable more than
three-quarters of a million dollars.

Pad the ironing board with a thick
quilt or old blanket, then lay the
board on the table and cut a piece OF
heavy muslin so it will fit the board
loosely Seam 1t up, leaving the slip
open at each end. Make two of these
slips and change them frequently,
says Mothers Magazine. Thus the
ironign board is always clean, and the
padding will not have to be changed
for months.

REAL WAR IN THE BALKANS.
Fighting Goes On Between Greeks,
serVlans and Bulgarlans.

London Evidence that serious
lighting has occurred in Macedonia Is
found in the arrival OF large numbers
OF wounded and prisoners in the vari-
Gus Balkan capitals, but owing TO
silence at Sofia and the conflicting
and probably biased stories from Ser.
Wan and Greek sources, II is impos-
sible to form an accurate idea OF the
struggle.
Premier Venizelos announced in the
Greek parliament that the Greek
forces had won a victory at KilkIsh
and captured sixty guns This ar-

amazing swiftness OF the Greek ad-
