Washington.-With the appointment
by President Wilson of Robert Lansing
as secretary of state, the figure of
Mrs. Lansing begins to loom large up
on the social horizon of Washington; !;
for the wife of the premier is, ex-of-
hcio. an important parsonage. and
none the less in this instance that Mrs.
Lansing Is a bit of parsonage in her
own right. AS the daughter of John
w. Foster, some time secretary of
state. she has had large experience
of official life here and abroad; and
she is thoroughly versed in the GUS
toms of Washington society and fitted
to assume the role of leader Of the
official contingent.
Since the retirement of William ].
Bryan there has been a tendency to
speak of Mrs. Bryan as 1.-The social ar.
bitter" of Washington officialdom and,
since Mrs. Wilson's death. first lady
of the land" Besides ignoring entire
1y the existence of Mrs. Thomas Riley
Marshall, wife of the vice-president,
who by all the canons of official eti.
Quette is entitled to this distinction.
and of Miss Margaret Wilson, the

was later chancellor of the state OF
New York.
Mr.. Lansing was graduated from
Amherst college in 1886 and began the
practice of law with his father in Wa
tertown in 1889
He soon became too big for small
town litigation, however. Interna-
tional law was his forte. In 1892 he
was appointed associate counsel for
the United States in the fur seal arbi-
tration and he attended the sessions
of the international tribunal at Paris
in 1898.
In the course of the next two years
he was counsel for the Mexican and
Chinese legations in Washington and
in 1896 Secretary of State Olney ap-
pointed him counsel for the govern
ment before the Bering sea claims
commission.
He was counsel for private parties
before the Canadian joint high com
mission in 1S9S-99 and later again
served the Mexican and Chinese lega-
tions.
In 1903 he was appointed to be coun.
sci for the United States before the
Alaskan boundary tribunal and he
took prominent part in the Venezue-
Ian asphalt disputes in 1905. He rep

tic fisheries and arbitration In 1908
and in 1911, on his return to this
country from The Hague. he was made
technical delegate of the government
in the fur seal conference at Wash
ington.
In 1911 he acted as counsel for the
United States in the American and
British claims arbitration and this was
his work up to the date he was chosen
Appointment Popular.
The appointment is very popular
with the members of the diplomatic
| corps. who have been associated with
Mr.. Lansing in an official way for q
good many years. and among whom he
numbers many close personal friends
No sooner was the appointment made
known than the foreign ENJOYS In
Washington hastened to call upon hin
to offer congratulations and pay theiI
respects, the Japanese ambassador
VIscount Chinda, being one of the
first.

Police Would GET It.

The talk of parents at home about
conditions in the police department
made deep Impression on the mind
OF twelve-year-old boy who was be-
fore Judge F. ]. Lehr in juvenile court
for stealing bicycle. The court had
lectured the boy and his three com
pauions on the disgrace of stealing
and finally asked the boys what they
thought about stealing.
Now suppose everybody we're to
steal" the court suggested, "and then
what do you think would become of
all of our property"
"Oh. the police would get every
thing" was the boys quick response.

advance.
Experienced In Social Life.
A woman whose interests center en-
brely in her husband and in her fam
lily, and who is inclined to agree with
her husband that the social side of
statecraft is of small consequence,
Mrs. Bryan has been only too glad to
avail herself OF the official mourning
for Mrs. Wilson to refrain from all
entertaining not absolutely necessary
and to evade as much social RESPONSE
bflity as possible. Moreover. although
intelligent. cultivated and travelled,
Mrs. Bryan, until her husband en-
tered the cabinet. had scant knowl-
edge OF official life, Mr. Bryan's own
experience having been limited to a
term or two in congress.
