 LONDON PAPER PRAISES WILSON

 greatest of the neutral powers definite ly takes a stand on maintaining the limits hitherto set dov4n for warfare at seal
 .sPresident4 Wilson is acting for the honor and the safety of the American people and all of us who have the bias of belligerents will do well to--spare him advice or comment i1i dealing with the situation which may arise out of the dispatch of this note.
 t.It is more than our cause which is at stake and more than our inter ests that have to be considered. We will merely take note of the fact that one of the greatest issues of the war is simply defined in this note and that the answer, whatever it may be, must make clear to the whole world whether or not Germany definitely ab- lures legal sanction to the limitations of that which hitherto has been un- -chalIengable between nations"

 BECOMES VERY SERIOUS.

Rome. May liking. Victor Em- manuel today received in the order named the following statesmen
 Signor Manfredi, president of the Senate: Signor MateoEs spresident of the Chamber of Deputies; Signof Gio- litti,. former premier, and now the leader of the neutraists in Italy,

Iidner .Nearfng War zone

New York, May 14-If the An chor line steamship TransylvanisL equals her record time on her present trip across thee ocean. she should enter the German war zone some time late tomorrow and if she passes thro ugh it safely, should dock in Liv- erpool early Sunday morning. This was according to the calculation of the Anchor line officials and was made public because of many in- auiries regarding the whereabouts of the vessel.
 The Transylvania's best record be- tween New York and Liverpool was days and g hours, her maximum speed being only Is Ia knots. The TransyIvanias cleared the bar at San dy Hook at g 10 F. M, Friday, May T, If she maintains her best speed she should arrive in the vicinity where the Lusitania was torpedoed off the coast of Ireland at around 6 o'clock tomorrow afternoon and dock in Ldv- erpoo1 at 6 a. m.. Sunday.
 The Anchor line officials antici- pated, however, that the ship would probably arrive at a. later hour inas- much as only with the most favorable weather conditions could she main tain her maximum speed.
 Inquiries at the American line were told that the ship Philadelphia, which sailed under the merican flag on May 8, would probably arrive in Liverpool tomorrow afternoon.
 The White Star liner Arabic, which sailed from Liverpool May T was due here today but had not been reported up to noon.

tneir day. The sun crept higher in the
sky The day grew big and warm.
And as the day grew, the morning
glory shriveled Smaller and smaller Il
grew, till It was only a tiny bit of its
former beauty and size. The beautiful
dawn color that had been spread over its
petals turned gray. The frilly white
trumpet edges, curled up YEARLY and
the dainty trumpet stem hung limp.
The fairy. returning from exploring the
garden, saw the flower willing and called !:
"oh. morning glory! You are dyingl
Can't do something to save you"
Each his own joy!" said the diving
morning glory. II saw the dawn. One
dawn is enough for lfetime-I NAV not

So every morning all summer the morn

The Morning Glory's JOY

HURLED up tight in morning glor,
" bud. on a vine on the alley fence
there slept tiny fairy. And as she slept,
she dreamed tiny dream about the sun
rise.
Even though II was tiny dream II
was enough to waken the fairy. She
opened her big blue eyes and looked out
OF the crack at the top OF the bud
II do believe it's most time to get up"
she said TO herself II do believe It's most
morning. and that the sunrise is going
TO be just like 1 dreamed itr'
The sky she could see out OF the top OF
the bud was grayish blue. but even while
she watched, soft hint Of pink crept
over the blue and warm breath stirred
through the vines. Yes, it's going to be
morning, and the sunrise Is coming!" she
cried happily.
Gently she stirred and stretched forth
her arms towards the sky And as she
moved, the morning glory bud opened
ever so little more and let her see bigger
piece OF the heavens.
A little more. a little more and the
flower was wide open. The fairy lay
curled up in the center, and looked at
the sky and the morning She saw the
dawn paint the sky pink and yellow and
amber. She saw the stars blink good
night" and slip to dreamland. she saw the
shadows stretch themselves cool and long
over the garden.
Then she looked at the world around
ner. Tho flower buds were all asleep
Not another fairy could look out and see
the morning come

pered softly. Can't I wake them up?''
