PRESIDENT AND WIFE
ENJOY GAME OF GOLF
Make DetOur From Their Hotel i'm
Order to Avoid the
Crowd.

HOT SPRINGS, Va, Dec. %. -
Bright sunshine drew the president
and Mrs. Wilson out on the golf
links this afternoon for the first
time since their honeymoon began.
To avoid the crowd which they
feared would gather as they started.
they made a detour from their hotel
and began on the second tee, which
hid them from view behind a hill.
The secret service men followed
them around the links at a short
distance. The president and his
bride had the links almost entirely
to themselves as they selected the
time for golfing when practically all
the players had quit for lunch. The
bride was dressed in a trim blue
walking suit cut short, with heavy
tan shoes and a small black turban.
The weather being mild the presi-
dent wore no overcoat. He was at
tired in gray business suit and a
soft hat.

LOST 1881 MEN
IN DARDANELLES
Names of Relieved Officers
Not PubIiShed-SingIe Men
Refuse to Enlist.

LONDON, Dec. 23.-The British
forces at the Dardanelles had suffer-
ed 12,921 casualties up TO Dec II, it
was announced in the house of COM
mons today by II. ]. Tenant, under
secretary of war.
The losses were divided as fol-
lows
Killed-Omcers, 1909; men, 49,
$40.
wounded-omcers. 1859; Men,
72.222.
Missing-Omcers, 9S7; men, H.
ia.
Tenant said it was not desirable
TO publish the names Of the officers
at Suvla bay who had been relieved
of their commands.
CONSUMPTION still looms. the big
issue before the cabinet met again
today to consider various phases of
Lord Derbys report on recruiting
that had TO be laid aside at yester-
days session.
A modified form of CONSUMPTION
may ultimately be decided upon TO
force into the army the unmarried
men who have thus far failed to en-
list for the defense of the country.
Lord Derby's report is said to show
that the number of unmarried men
who have avoided military service
is much larger than had generally
been supposed
In reaching a final decision as to
what action shall be taken to raise
the army that Great Britain recog-
nizes is necessary to win. the gov
eminent is also confronted with the
problem of maintaining industry at
home, particularly the manufacture
of ammunition and the providing OF
food sufficient for the support Of the
population.
The present aim Of the cabinet is
to raise the army to the necessary
size and at the same time protect
the economic life of the nation. Even
the greatest Optimists see no pros
poets of immediate peace. In a war
of exhaustion the country that has
best protected its economic strength
will win.
There is a marked difference OF
opinion in the cabinet, but if a min
isterial crisis is imminent no hint Of
1t has become known.
