United States
As l have been residing in London
since the beginning Of the war, | have
been hearing this question asked on
all sides. ! have never heard any
satisfactory answer. No one seems to
know
Why are the American factories not
running night and day? Why are the
railroads not opening up new terri
tories and getting ready for the mil
lions of immigrants who have already
made up their minds TO leave Europe
as soon as the war is over?
Why are there not so American
drummers IN London right now, try
ing to sell $2OO,O0O,000 worth OF
American goods that were bought last
year from Germany and Austria?
Why have advertisers become quit
ters, just at the time when their ad-
Vertscments were most needd and
most effective in cheering on the busi-
ness forces of the United States?
From the European point of view
the United States is haven Of peace
and security and prosperity. II has
no troubles that 1t dare mention to
Belgium or Austria or France or Ger
many or Servia or Great Britain or
Russia.

Canmg lhc Night Malchmnn.

Frank explained that Immediately
on his arrival home, and at half-past
six, he had called Lee on the tele-
phone but was unable to get him;
that he again called him at o'clock
when Lee, who was supposed to punch
the register at that hour, would be
sure to be I'm the ueiEhborhood of the
telephone; that he had asked if CAN'T
was gone ana if everything was all
right at the factory, and that Lee had
answered both questions in the affirm
ative.
Franks explanation was that Lee
had been in the employ of the factory
less than three weeks at the time, and
that in addition to the unwelcOme
presence of CAN'T In the factory that
night, IT was not unusual for him to
call up the watchman, as former
watChmen well knew, that the factory
had no regular nOCturnOgraph with
stations in different parts Of the fac
tory where the night watChman would
be compelled to punch, ana that hay-
ing only the regular register, II had
been his custom TO call the Watchman
on various preteXts, even as late as
II o'clock at night, for the purpose Of
assuring himself that the Watchman
was in the factory, awake and alert;
and that other officials Of the factory
as well as himself had been in the
habit of doing this. Lee, in fact, ad-
mitted that Mrs Frank as well as
the bOOkkeeper, had rung him up in
the three weeks he had been there.
Negro help is not the most reliable IN
the world, ana there was i'm the fac
tory in addition to the danger from
fire. valuable secret machinery which
it was necessary to safeguard. That
Franks anxiety was not wholly un-
justified was proved by the fact that
CAN'T hung around the factory some
time and went into the office and used
the telephone while he was there.

secretary and designer of the Hud-
son river TUNE stood in the shadow
of the same drapery, talking conf
dentially, until the next dance was
we'll under way.
There is much speculation just
now as to the probable date OF the
wedding. Many believe it Will be an
Easter affair. while Others are sure
it Will take place in June after con-
gress has adjourned.
One friend of Miss Wilson quoted
her recently as saying that She would
NOT marry Secretary McAdoo unless
Miss Mona formally asked her to,
from which it was inferred that Miss
Mona was not SO joyous about receiv-
ing her into the family as she was to
have her for a companion and friend.
Miss Wilson is more like her moth
er in every way than her sisters. for
she has inherited her mothers talent
in art and has done much creditablc
work. She has been q student at the
Academy of Fine Arts at Philadelpl.
ia ever since she left school, ana
still continues to attend there, but
gees less frequently than before the
Inauguration.
Constant Companion of Mother.
She and her mother are constant
companions. sketching and painting
together whenever they can snatch
time from their social duties. They
nave fitted up a charming studio on
the third floor of the White House.
which hitherto has been given over to
servants and storage rooms. AT the
time of the Sayre-Wilson Wedding.
h studio was not disturbed, ey-
cept to improve it. During the last
summer Mrs. Wilson and her 9aush-
ter made many sketches in the neigh
borhood of the summer White House.
which they have embellished and
completed during the winter.
Miss Wilson also is gifted in hist
ronic art. Her acting in the bird play
gwen recently in New York and in
Scranton in the autumn attracted
favorable comment.

to Miss Wilson seems to be a fore
hone conclusion among his friends.
The president has taken a definite
stand against nepotism, refusing to
permit any of his relatives to be NAM
ed for offices under the present adj
ministration. There is a general feel
ing that the presence Of a son-in-law
of the President in the cabinet would
mean that someone would invariably
be st2pding between the President
and his ether advisers. 1t is feared
that II a matter OF policy we're to
come up and other members of the
cabinet wished the president to take
a stand different from the one taken
by McAdoo. the President would be
forced into a very delicate position.
In order to relieve the President OF
this embarrassment, it is understood
that McAdoo will resign. There would
undoubtedly be considerable embar-
rassment TO the President were Nc
Adoo to remain. 1t would be repeat
eddy suggested that the son-in-law in
the cabinet was dominating Mr.. Will
sons actions and was his chief sup
port. While Mr.. McAdoo is not yet
ready to make an announcement, ii
is believed that he viii do so shortly.
viii Be Notable Wedding.
White House weddings apparently
are TO be a conspicuous feature of the
Wilson administration. E%Xtraordin-
airy Interest was manifested by the
entire nation in the marriage of Miss
Jessie Wilson TO Francis Bowes Say
re last November. The second event OF
this character since the Inauguration
via command even greater attention.
In many respects it will be the most
Interesting Of all White House we'd
dinss.
The daughters of presidents have
married distinguished public officials.
Marie Monroe married her fathers
secretary. But this is the first time
that the daughter OF Il chief magis-
trate OF the republic will take as her
husband Il member of her fathers
cabinet.
Miss Wilson Only ~.
Miss Wilson is "a years old and
Mr.. McAdoo has turned the half GEN.

gether.
In fact, this was the cause of the
first comment on the attentions the
secretary was paying to the presi-
dents daughter. They danced dance
after dance together. Miss Wilson
is tall and slender, Mr.. McAdoo also
is tall and slender.
The gossip coupling the names Of
the secretary and Miss Wilson start

person outside of the bridal party al
