Throw real expert out Of the win

has an illustration in the decision of
the Senate at Washington to leave it
to Senator Burton to say just what it.
ems it is necessary to put into the riv.
ers and harbors bill this year. OF
course, behind this action lies the
fear of a filibuster which would pre-
vent the passage OF any bill what
ever. But there will be no filibuster
against bill properly trimmed and to
Senator Burton is to be turned over
the main part of the work of cutting
away the superfuities and excrescenc-

held down to the amount actually
needed to go on with the projects now
under way, there will be no serious
objection to the measure. This unus-
ual resort is a tribute to the special
knowledge of the subject possessed by
Mr.. Burton. Most of 1t was acquired
during his long service in the House
where his committee work made him
an authority on rivers and harbors. 1t
may be added that the function now
temporarily conferred upon him is
such as foreign governments are glad
to bestow upon qualified permanent

at the Columbia Country Club this

The President frequently listens to
Miss Wilson's voice in the records she
has made of his favorite songs. She
learned several old Scotch songs TO
please her father and sings them in
charming dialect.
Whcn Dr. Grayson was asked to-day
concerning the published report that
he was TO marry Miss Alice Gertrude

pleased with the compliment paid me
in rumoring my engagement to Miss
Gordon, but there is mistake in the
