U. S. NEAR TEST.
SAYS PRESIDENT
WILSON SEES WORLDS AFFAIRS
NEAR CLIMAX, IN WHICH
AMERICA MUST ACT.
RESTORE WORLD PEACE
WILL BE CHIEF FACTOR IN SET
TLlNG EUROPEAN WAR BY
SYMPATHETIC STAND.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
New York.-President Wilson in an
address at the annual luncheon of the
Associated Press here gave definite
statement OF his idea of true neutral.
ity and of the duties that devolve
upon Americas connection with the
European war. Referring to the war
situation, the President said:
The times behind US, gentlemen,
have been difficult enough; the times
before US are likely to be more diff.
cult. Because whatever may be said
about the present condition of the
world affairs, it is clear that they are
drawing rapidly to a climax; and at
the climax the test will come, not only
for the nations engaged in the present
colossal struggle-it will come for
them, Of course-but the test will
come to US particularly.
DO you realize that, roughly
speaking. we are the only great nation
at present disengaged? Therefore, is
It not likely that the nations of the
world will some day turn to us, for the
cooler assessment of the element en-
gagged?
Il am not now thinking so prepos-
ferrous thought as that We should sit
in judgment upon them-no nation Is
lit to sit in judgment upon any other
nation-but that we shall some day
haze to assist in reconstructing the
process Of peace.
I'VE must put our money, our en-
srgy, our enthusiasm, our sympathies
into these things; and We must have
our judgment prepared and our spir-
It's chastened against the coming Of
that day. So that ! am not speaking
In selfish spirit when l say that our
whole duty. for the present at any
rate, Is summed up in this motto:
America First
Let US think Of America before we
think Of Europe, in order that Amer
lea may be fit to be Europe's friend,
when the day of tested friendship
comes. The test Of friendship is not
now sympathy with one side or the
other, but getting ready to help both
sides when the struggle is over.
"The basis Of neutrality, gentlemen,
is not indifference; it is not self inter
est. The basis Of neutrality is SYM
pathy for mankind. 1t is fairness; it
Is good will at bottom. It is impartiality
Of spirit and Of judgment. wish
that all of our fellow citizens could
realize that. There is in some quar-.
ters disposition to create distemper
In this body polite.
I'VE cannot afford, therefore, to let
the rumors OF irresponsible persons
and origin to get into the atmosphere
Of the United States.
There are groups of selfish men in
the Unked States; there are coteries
where sinister things are purposed,
but the great heart Of the American
people is just as sound and true as it
ever was. And 1t is a single heart; it
Is a heart Of America. 1t is not a
heart made up Of sections collected
out Of other countries"

CALLED FOR MUCH ATTENTION
Users of Quill Pens Had to Be En-
dowed With Great Deal of
Patience.

We have complained Of our foun-
tain pens, but the constant mending
required by quill pens must have
proved severe trial In the days when
no others were available, says the
London Chronicle. Alexander l of
Russia thought it necessary to employ
a man whose sole duty consisted in
cutting pens. He was required to-
have a supply of not less than one
hundred quilts always ready.
This number was by no means ex-
cessive, for Alexander would never use
the same pen twice. Even the writ
ing or signature spoiled a pen, in
his opinion, for subsequent use. The
quill cutter, who received salary Of
&340 year, accompanied the czar in
all his journeys, including campaigns
against Napoleon.
Writing implements changed consid.
erably for the better during Sir Wal
ter Gilbey's long spell of life. Though
quill pens are still in use," he remarks.
in his "Recollections of Seventy
Years." II remember the time when
one seldom saw any other kind. Steel
pens in their early days were ex-
pensive and i'll made, and few people
used them. The paper we had 70
years ago may have been partly to
blame; it had neither the substance
nor the surface we take as matter of
course nowadays.
81 remember when envelopes came
into use, and what boon they were
considered after the old systems of
closing letters with waters or wax.
Before envelopes were invented letters
were always written with an eye to
the position of the wafer or seal, a
blank space being left to correspond
with the space where this would be
put on the outside, lest the written
portion should be torn in opening"
