Washington, Nov. 17.-Contrary tc
the predictions of a great many per-
sons, President Wilson's semi-weekly
meetings with newspaper correspond
ents stationed at the capital have be-
come permanent institution. Every
Monday at 10 and every Thursday at
the newspaper men gather in the
presidents office and he talks freely to
them concerning the business of the
government. Nothing is permitted to
interfere with these meetings. During
the hot summer months the cabinet
meetings were dispensed with, but ex-
cept on two or three occasions when
the president was away from the city
not an engagement to meet the news
paper men was Cancelled.
Wilson never shows the slightest
favoritism in dealing with writers for
newspapers. Stationed at the national
capital are some 200 representatives of
the press. On the occasion of these

Last Saturday morning women carry
ing Notwithstanding, mysterious look
ing parcels could be seen coming from
all parts of Hammond. These women
were members of the Hammond Wom-
ans Club taking their home cooked
viands to be served at the Pure Food
Day luncheon at the club in the Cham
Der of Commerce. The motto for the
day was Pure Wholesome and Home
made" and the women Wed with each
other in having everything up to the
standard. The luncheon was in genu-
inc cafeteria style. At the main en-
trance Mesdames Ritter and Erwin
handed each person a tray with napkin
plate and silver. Then down the long
white oilcloth covered tables the guests
went, choosing from the tempting foods
ispalyed-each with it's own price
card. After the trays were filled. they
were sized up" and ticketted by Mrs.
Run assisted by her daughter, Edith.
Mrs. Oberlin took up the tickets as
they went by her ard deposited the
money IN her cash register. Then the
diners passed on to the tables in the
roped-off section and sat down to the
fullest ehjoyrr1ent of their home cooked
meals. Over three hundred persons
were served and others came after the
food supply was exhausted.
Many were the expressions of ap-
prevail heard. One prominent man said
the Hammond Woman's Club would do
more good to the city by serving these
luncheon than they would by studying
Scotland. Another wished these
lunches could be served every Satur-
day. Yet another. a travelling man. re-
marked it was the first home-cooked
food he had eaten in months.

cabinet meetings was not true
goes on at these meetings. 1t is a fine
thing for the president of the United
States. for it enables him to keep In
touch with the news distributing ia
elites, and ii is, OF course, a finer
thing for the newspapers and the poe
pie After all. the people are the real
beneficiaries of such democratic ar
rangement."
On the whole, the president is ex-
tremely frank in discussing public af-
fairs in answer to the questions that
are asked. Newspaper men months
ago became impressed with the fact
that he never attempts to deceive. If
a question is asked about a matter
known to be under consideration and
President Wilson feels that he ought
not to talk about it. he disposes of the
question by saying, II think I ought
not to discuss that at this time" Gen
orally speaking. the business of the

freedom he could exercise in talk
ing 1t over with a member of his cabi-
net. Frequently it becomes necessary
for the president to say, What / shall
now say to you is for your informa-
tion and guidance, and is not to be
used"
Unquestionabiy these semi weekly
conferences have done much toward
making the news that goes out of the
national capital reliable. They serve
to check up on the matter that has
been written during the three or four
days preceding each conference. The
president himself rarely complains of
newspaper inaccuracy, and never of
criticism of his administration. Only
once during the eight and one-half
months has he directly called atten-
ton to a newspaper story That was
when he pointed out that a statement
printed in New York paper to the
effect that he had decided to abolish

government is discussed with as much
semi-weekly conferences the door of
the executive office Is open to every
one of these men. No question is ever
asked to whether a man represents
a republican paper. a democratic pa
per. bun moose paper, or any other
kind of a paper. and the correspond
ent who feels 1t his duty to score the
president severely is given exactly the
same sort of treatment as is accorded
to the correspondent most friendly to
the administration.
Recently several editors of foreign
newspapers visited the national capt.
tai and expressed the keenest sort of
interest in the way these conferences
are conducted.
"They afford the best evidence I
have seen of a real democracy in this
country" said one of these men. $50
far as / know, no other ruler in the
world submits to such questioning as

scheme has already been tried with re-
markable results in Charlottesville and
other churches in this vicinity, but it
is new to the Methodist churches in

bodies the making of a personal appeal
to every member, instead of trusting
to the general appeals from the pulpit.
