There was one disappointment for
those who attended the wedding, for
the gifts were not put on display. 1t
is known that these included many
beautiful and valuable articles sent
by relatives and personal friends of
the bride and groom and of their FAM
lies and by admirers of President
Wilson. Handsome presents were
sent by both the senate and the house,
that of-the latter being a diamond la
vaIliere which Miss Genevieve Clark.
l1aAfifeer of the speaker, bought for
the representatives in New York.
Guests Limited to 400.
Those who were invited to witness
the wedding were mostly personal
friends and the number was kept down
close to four hundred. The list was
pared and revised several times, and
as has been said. the operation result
ed in many heartburnings. From the
house of representatives circle, for
instance. the only guests were Speaker
Champ Clark, Mrs. Clark and Miss
Genevieve Clark, Marjory Leader rUn-
derwood and Mrs. Underwood, and
Minority Leader Mann and Mrs. Mann
As might be expected. the streets
outside the White House were as
crowded as the police would permit
with curious persons eager to watch
the arrival and departure of the guests

The entire affair was very simple,

mall-distressingly SO to many per-
sons in official and social circles of
Washington who had expected to re-
-ceive invitations but were disappoint-

as maid of honor to her sister, and
Miss Eleanor Randolph Wilson, the

Miss Adeline Mitchell Scott of Prince
ton, daughter Of Prof. William b.

man, DR.. Wilfred T. Grenfell. the IA
nous medical missionary to the fisher
men of the Labrador coast. The two
men have long been fast friends and
Mr.. Sayre spent two summers help
ing DR.. Grenfell with his work.
The ushers were Charles e. Hughes,
Jr.. son of Justice Hughes of the Su-
preme court and classmate of Mr..

Gilbert Horax of Montclair, N. J., who
was a classmate at Williams college

MAKING OVER A "BUM.

Shorty" Reinhardt, thoroughgoing bum,
appeared before Baltimore magistrate charged
with making disturbance because children teased
him. He had spent four of the last seven years in
public charge because of like offenses. Less than
five feet tall, thoroughly impressed that the world
has no use for him, he has lived precariously by
digging in the dump or begging
The magistrate and the workhouse officers
decided to experiment on Shorty" He was given
in charge of DR.. w. S. Cornell, who has charge of
such cases. and sent away for bath, as the begin
ming of treatment. He doubted, naturally enough,
its efficacy; never having had bath, why begin
now? Bathed, he was established in a clean lodging
house, given respectable clothing, slept between
white sheets, and generally put into the processes
of the cleanliness cure. He will be kept away from
old associations, given work to do and chance to
make man of himself.
There is real sense in this procedure. Unfortu-
mates of "Shorty's' type need chance more than
anything else. There is more civilization in bath
and clean shirt than in endowed library-for
their kind shave, shine, and collar represent,
safely enough, the best results of millions of
years of human evolution. The bum who can be
made sincerely to enjoy and to need them has
covered the entire interval from the Stone Age to
date. If he can be taught those needs in few weeks
il means tremendous acceleraton of the processes
of evolution. Give respectable needs of
this Sort and he is well the way to adopting
for respectfully supplying them.
