There is no doubt but that the per.

the state.

President Wilson's handling of
Americas policy regarding the Euro
pean war has commended the respect
OF all nations. Neutrality was no new
thing. But the multiple of emotions
aroused In the breasts of Americans
have been brought to bear upon the
head of the nation, and it has taken
many months of patient effort for the
administration to assuage these bitter
factions. First and foremost in his
many duties, was the moulding of the
public sentiment of America into INIT.

In international affairs, the United

world leadership. The neutrals look

WILSON COMPLETES
HIS SECOND YEAR

| Washington, D. c., March 3.-Wood
row Wilson today completed his sec
ond year in the Presidential chair. 4Ie
has met with disappointments and
triumphs bitter criticism and high
praise. His task has been heavy
throughout the year, and weight of Of
flee is today at its greatest.
The end oi his second presidential
year finds President Wilson in a per.
picking situation. He is face TO face
with questions bigger to our national
life than any which beset the nation
since Lincoln. He is called upon to
steer the ship of state through tbn
great world-storm of war that threat
ems to engulf all civilized nations.
! AS world figure he holds a posi-
tion which no other President has
been called upon to fill. The Presi-
dent Of the United States is looked to
for leadership by all the neutral ma.
tons. The turn of world events has
thrust upon him the heavy human
DUTY of accepting this leadership. II
was brand new thing for the world
to look to America It is indeed a
momentous situation, and one which
calls for all the learning of the nro.
fessor, the calmness of a man who
knows events, the sureness of the
great thinker and the humanity of the
heart that knows men.
During the year now passing. Presi.
cent Wilson has met with MANY sore
ulsappointments. He has lost his wife
and helpmate, and the great rooms of
the White House have been robbed of
their attraction for him. He is more
alone in spirit. But he has thrust his
energies into the work to offset this
feeling. Then last November he saw
the sweep of the elections show clear
ly that the country was not with him
as he had hoped and expected. AL.
though he had worked to his utmost
he read in the returns that the wave
of feeling that had swept him into of.
fee had reduced. Regardless of the
cause. the result was surely disheart.
ening to a man beset by the difficult
ties which were growing thicker about
him.
And then. still more recent. came
the failure of his ship bill to pass the
senate. This was surely a disappoint
ment to the chief executive.
There have been many triumphs dur. /
ing the year for President Wilson as
there were In his first year Desnita
the irony of the press on his watch i
ful waiting policy. the avoiding of en-.
tanglements with the Mexican revolu. |
tlon Is surely an accomplishment of
the administration. History will un-
doubtedly support his policy of allow.
ing the deluded Mexicans to fight ont |
their affairs without interference.
He has seen the revision Of tba
banking system of the country under
the federal reserve act, an important
out quiet event In American history.
That this was big accomplishment
OF the administration during the year
now passing, In fact the most notable
event in our national life for many.

SHARP SHOOTERS ACTIVE.
(By Associated Press J

wy hooOt tutfN IffSS
Dunkirk, France, March 3.-The ac.
tivities of the highly efficient German
sharp shooters have been responsible
for large proportion of the casual
ties in the French and British armies
during the past two months. Lieuten.
ant H. G. Vouzier of the French army
writes of these sharp shooters:
During the past three weeks have
lost more men by the sniper than
did In three stiff engagements. Our
position Is not unlike a golf links,-
half mile from the club house we
are bunkered and nicely under cover
but Immediately one of us shows a
head a bullet whizzes past In one
day ten were hit and for the life oil
us we could not locate the place
where their snipers were concealed.
At last we found it; four hundred
yards In front of us in the open were
several prominent tufts of grass: one
or my men fired into one of these
tufts, and sniper fell into view nor
tally wounded. A hundred yards to
the right was another tuft which We
demolished with fusillade of shots
When 1t was dark we found there two
dead Germans, who were warmly clad
and wrapped In rugs.
I'VE decided to initiate the tactics
Of the Germans. Two of our men vol.
unteered to become water rats, just
as the Germans had become field mice.
Under cover Of darkness they wormed
themselves into the banks at the water
edge of . stagnant pond, and the next
day they picked OF many Germans
before they were discovered"
