MRS. WILSON is ovERWoRKED
State OF Health Of the Presidents
Wife Demands a Long Summer
Vacation.

There Is no sort OF doubt that Mrs.
Wilson. wife OF the president, has
broken .n health to the extent that a
long and very quiet summer will be
necessary to have her in shape to en-
dure the strains of the winter fes-
tivities.
Mrs. Wilson. IL her eminent de-
sire to be as all wives OF the presi-
dents have been. good lieutenant
for her husband. and do In a social
way what the president does In
political way. has wilfully but un-
erringly given away, as all over-am-
bilious women do. and worn her nerve
forces to a frazzle.
Mrs. TAFT did the same thing when
she took her place in the White
House. Never a particularly strong
woman. she was interested in re-
forms and desired to return to official
society life something OF the prestige
IL had during the early years of the
nation. when the wives of the presi-
dents were as strong minded as their
husbands. Mrs. Taft was also in
terested In a more beautiful Wash
iA6s~.' NNN htipcd W punh lue pistu5

beauty spots of the world. She. too.
broke down, and will suffer for 1t the
remainder of her life.
Mrs. Roosevelt never did anything
at all in the White House except to
be the wife of the president. She
performed her social duties as faith
full chatelalne should. and was al
ways a gracious and genial hostess,
but the best friend that Mrs. Roose-
welt ever had could never have called
her magnetic or particularly attract
i've. 1t was not that Mrs. Roosevelt
had not the brains or ability. but she
was always so utterly and absolutely
submerged in the individuality of her
husband, President Roosevelt, that
she never made any attempt to be
other than Just the wife OF the presi-
dent.
Everybody will regret that Mrs.
Wilson has so early broken down.
and the sincere hope will go with her
to her summer home that she will re-
turn TO Washington in her wonted
health.

for anyone else. to dispense with
stockings and sandals. but few people
care to avail themselves of this privi-
lege. The feet are more comfortable
In light sandals. And stockings make
quite an important element in the
good effect of the suit. 1t Is an Item
of style, this dressing Of the feet
properly. The cap, as the picture
shows, is quite an elaborate bit of
headwear. quite different from the
simple puffed cap of rubber cloth
which preceded It.
But the pretty bit of headwear pic
tured is hardly practical for the girl
that really swims. And she who dives
would be sure to leave It behind her
when she comes up. 1t is all right for
those who only paddle about in the
water and stroll on the shore. For
real water sport the plain rubber cap
worn down over the ears and fitting
snugly about the head is the only one
that will keep the hair dry. or partly
dry.
Every year the Importance of teach
ing girls to swim looms up larger and
larger. And once the little ones form
a taste for the water 1t is easy for
them to learn, because they desire so
much to know how. Boys strike out
for themselves, usually. and soon mas
ter the art and enjoy themselves for
ever after.

There were checks and bars in black

narrow borders of ribbon In vivid col

Perhaps the best-liked model is the
stripe pictured in the Illustration.
This style is often shown with a wide
black or colored border about the edge
and often with a fowered border OF
roses against a colored ground. A
black and white parasol is the best
substitute for the all-black (which
seems to be not in high favor lust

NEW ASPlRANT FOR OFFICE
Gonzales Has Proclaimed Himself
President of Mexico.

Washington-A new aspirant for
presidential honors in Mexico was
added to the list Sunday with the re-
ceipt here of advices that General
Pablo Gonzales, one of Carranza's di-
visional chiefs, has proclaimed him
self provisional president Of Mexico
and has named a cabinet.
This report, received officially,
comes from Queretaro where Gen.
eral Gutierrez, the Aguascalientes,
conventions choice for president,
has established himself According
to this information, General Coma
les is at Pacbuca with his forces, said
to number about 5000 men. Pa
chuca is north of Mexico City, about
so miles distant.
Gonzales recently withdrew from
Queretaro in the face of the advance
of Villa and his troops, and his where
abouts for some time has been more
or less of a mystery. The mystery
is now solved, it is believed, with the
announcement that he has proclaim
ed himself provisional president
While it is doubted If he will at
tempt to take Mexico City at present,
it is admitted that General Gonzales
with his present force can make him.

situation and perhaps Illustrate all the
plans of either Villa, Zapata, or Car
rama, so long as he holds his present
strong position.
According to other state depart
ment advices, negotiations are under
way between the convention leaders
and Zapata for joint entry into Mex

Holland Declines Aid Offered
UnOffiCiaIly BY Amer
lean Charity
GATHERING UNFORTUNATE
ONES IN SPECIAL CAMPS
Huge Expense of Supporting Penni-
less 6eIeians and Soldiers Will be
Paid Eventually by Belgian
Government.

The Hague, via London-The Dutch
government has categorically declined
all offers OF financial aid for Belgian
refugees in Holland. which were re-
Gently unofficially offered by an Amer
lean charity. While deeply appre-
ciative OF the generous proposal, the
government says 1t feels that 1t would
be incompatible with the country's
honor to tallow another nation or in
dividual association to assist in this
mercy work, and that Holland desires
to provide herself for all those differ
ent neighbors who are afflicted by
the war.
OF the 100000 Belgian refugees
who fled into Holland at the begin
ming of the war. 100000 penniless
ones remain. One-half of these are
living in the two southern provinces
of Brabant and iceland. The re-
mainder are divided among 500 COM
munities.
Winter is approaching and these
refugees are now being gathered to-
gether in specially constructed camps
situated in dunes of heath and at
other healthy spots. For this pur-
pose, a special budget Of about ST.
100000 has been passed to cover the
expenses until January. After that.
further credit of 100000 will be
given.
The gravest task in store for the
authorities is the rounding up and
concentrating of former inmates of
Belgian prisoners. who were liberated
wholesale by the Belgian authorities
before the arrival of the Germans
and now are considered a public
menace.
In addition to the refugees, there
are $4,000 Belgian soldiers who cross
ed the border into Holland and were
interned. These men are also being
supported in special camps. The ex-
pense for the maintenance eventually
will be paid by the Belgian govern
ment, according to international law.
President Visits Firing Line.
Verdun, via Paris-President Poin-
care, with Premier Viviani and the

of deputies. made a visit Saturday
to the troops along the firing line in

spected the military works near Yer
dun and the ruins of Clermont, where

mains standing. Among the patients
in this hospital who are seriously
wounded is Deputy Andre Maginot.
