FUTILE HINT TO THE BORE
Social Caller Could Not Understand
Gentle lntimation Conveyed by
His Host.

President Wilson, thanks in part to
his splendid training at Princeton, but
thanks in greater part to his tact, is
said to receive and dismiss visitors
more adroitly than any former occu-
pant OF the White House
Sometimes, however, stupid visitor
turns up. and then President Wilson'S
tact is unappreciated, and the visitor
overstays his time Apropos of such
visitors the president at luncheon in
Washington told story.
There was an old follow he said,
"who was praising the rising young
lawyer of his town.
George, for a busy man. said the
old fellow 'is one of the pleasantest
chaps ever met. Why, dropped in
on him for a social call this morning
and hadn't been chattin' with him
,raore than fifteen minutes before he'd
told me three times to come and see
him again"

Al the elegance of a man of the court,
there is still about him something that

rare In that age of animal lust, chilling

Of their members are arrested, and en-
trusts the secret articles Of the association

that their only hope is to intimidate the

De Lussac goes home, buries the papers

Cost Of Graduating Clothes.
From the woman's Home Companion

From the Woman's Home COMPANION
he familiar problem of the cost OF
the graduating dress and its accessories
is upon us with its annual insistence
There has been long, hard fight thst 10

cessity for common sense. This is he
cause those who most need protection arc
among the most strenuous advocates Of
the snowy and expensive graduation
"A year ago we published an illuminate
Ing symposium on the subject Especially
noLaple was communication from

she would bitterly oppose an effort to pre-
vent her from giving sister about to
graduate the most beautiful and costly

her Then came the pathetic reason: in
her own case and that OF the sister there
was no hope of marriage. The gradua-
ton mean to them all that a wedding
ceremony means to most wonen--more
perhaps. for it was the one fine and spleu-
did reality that should be the llappiest
memory in a future that promised only q
drab monotone.
There was no escaping the pathetic
force of the letter. Nor is 1t difficult to
understand how a mother who for years
has toiled increasingly and gone without
an education should be eager TO make d
great final sacrifice to have before her
the visible evidence Of accomplishment
