Marshall Likes New Things.

In his campaign for the governorship
Of Indiana, the only Office held by Mr..
Marshall besides the vice presidency,
he introduced new style Of stumping
the state. a leisurely, homely way. He

state without much plan or purpose
mapped out, and wherever theyswent
he told the people what he thought
about politics and state affairs: He
held no conferences with local leaders,
but continued his amiable way. Prac-
teal politicians laughed at him. There
was not even any handshaking or
cigar giving in his plan. But on cleo
ton day little Tom" Marshall was
elected.
In his first term of Office Marshall
was opposed by the state senate, which
was Republican. In the election of

in winning the governorship of New
Jersey and conducting the affairs of
that office, and finally the administra-
ton Of the presidency Of the United
States. The key to Woodrow Wilson's
career is found in that major division
of forty-sh years devoted to prepara-
ton. To understand him he must be
thought Of as a man who has gone
through such a training and is an in
defatigable worker.
Born In Virginia.
Woodrow Wilson was born in staun-
ton, Va, on Dec. Is, 1856, the son of
Joseph r. and Jessie Woodrow Viii
son. The stock is Scotch-Irish. The
early years Of his life were spent in
South Carolina and Georgia, where his
father, a minister Of the Presbyterian
, church, had charges, and at seventeen
he was sent to Davidson college. Two
years later he went north to enter
Princeton and was graduated in 1879.
At college he was q prime favorite
with his fellOws-not overstudious, as
one may judge from his rank of forty
first i'll 4 class Of 122.
From Princeton Wilson went to the
University Of Virginia. There he
studied law for one year. From. V1r-
ginla Wilson went to Atlanta and there
sought to exc out living by selling
his knowledge Of law to clients The
clients did not cOme-nOt altogether to
Wilson'S dismay, for he was not inter
ested in the practice Of law, but in it's
principles-and year later found him
at Johns Hopkins university. In 1885
he published his book, Congressional
Government-A Study Of Government
by Committee" This is now largely
used as a textbook in colleges and
graduate schools in this country.
His Two Marriages.
In the summer Of 1885, just before
taking up his work as professor at
Bryn Mawr, he married Miss Ellen
Louise Arson Of Savannah. Mrs. Will.
son died at the White House Aug. 6,
1914, and the president married Dec.
is, 1915, Mrs. Edith Boiling Gait of
Washington. The president has three
daughters 49, Miss Margaret Woodrow
Wilson, Mrs. Francis BoWes Sayre and
Mrs. William Gibbs McAdoo, wife Of
the secretary Of the treasury.
Wilson entered the faculty Of Prince
ton university in 1890 and was made
professor Of political economy and ju-
rfsprudence, later Of Jurisprudence and
politics. In 1902, upon the death Of
the Rev. DR.. Francis L. Patton, he was
elected president of Princeton univer-
sity. He was the first man not cler-
,gyman to hold that Office.
For eight years he served that uni
,versity as its head and was constant

faculty, while his courses were voted
both difficult and popular. %

Neighboring Villages Visited.

Lieutenant Morton, Corporal John
L. Carmody and Grover Umbehocker,
of Co. G., visited Cambridge, Braham
and Mora Saturday in search Of re-
cruits. No new names have been en-
rolled as a result, but several young
men from the towns visited may en-

which was we'll attended considering
everything. Lieutenant Morton spoke
briefly explaining the purpose Of the
visit, and he emphasized the fact that
Co. G of Princeton represented the en-
tire Rum river valley. The boys were
greeted most cordially at Cambridge,
and, while no recruits were secured
it is hoped and expected that few of
the young men of that vicinity will
enlist in the immediate future.
A brief stop at Braham was made,
and then the three soldiers invaded
Mora. Hon. Henry Rines, Minnesota's
next state treasurer, was in charge of
arrangements at that place, and Lieu
tenant Morton addressed large and
enthusiastic gathering of citizens that
evening. Mr.. Morton summed up the
situation in terse but vigorous lang
uage and strongly urged the young
men of that vicinity to join Co. G. of
Princeton.
If any Of the young men of our
neighboring villages decide to enlist,
we can assure them, that a finer lot of
young men than those comprising Co.
G, has never been collected, and any,
one joining the company will soon
learn the truth of this statement.

She may have had. experience in
matrimony from what she said. but to
all outward appearances she was a
spinster. She had been sitting in the
courtroom of a justice Of the peace

too much laughing in the Office to suit
the spinster, and she let everybody
know it.
Finally she had stood the laughing

artillery and machine gun fire. but the
Italians would not be denied.
There has again been a slackening
in the intensity OF the bombardment
on the various sectors around Verdun.
The Germans essayed an attack
against the British southeast of Ypres,

many points entered German trenches,
inf1icting casualties on the defenders
and taking some prisoners.
-Four German aircraft have been
brought down by British airmen in

On the front in Northern Russia
the Germans have bombarded Russian
positions and followed them up with
infantry attacks.
Petrograd says that all the attacks
we're put down by the Russian fire.

and Victro1a music. Meetings
are held in these buildings Sun
day and during the week as de-
mands arise for programs and
stunts of various sorts. There
is now one of these Association
buildings for every brigade at
Llano Grande, each in charge
of at least two secretaries.
The Second Regiment has a
building of it's own, known as
Mollison Hall, in honor of our
Colonel. According to the St.
Paul papers, certain peavish re-
porters encouraged by their
home folks in the all-wise First
Regiment have walled loud and
long against what they natural
ly would call an extravaganza
and against the efforts of our
chaplain to secure money from
some of his friends in the Twin
Cities. These accounts have
been rank.y biased and rather
misplaced. In the matter Of
thrift, be it said to the honor
of the Second, when it sent in
requests for it's share of the
brigade fund which sometime
back had been raised for the
welfare of the men in khaki, it
didn't ask that this money be
spent to buy an automobile for
the regiment, such as the First
thought it needed along with it's
Ford. The chaplain did not ask
for public subscriptions as
churches might raise in the Twin
Cities, as the paper report might
infer. He sought only among
a few of his personal friends.
Now the Second believes it's
: Hall meets a big need and in so
doing is not an extravaganza.
The Y. NJ. c.. A. building of the
Minnesota brigade is located
next door to both the First and
Third regiments while it is
about a half mile from ou1

will not complain about this dis
tance; but for the run.of an or

ton building is too unhandy

MAKE IT WORTH WHILE

Life, at the longest, is short.
We are here today, and tomor-
row we are gone. Life is a fleet
ing, intangible thing. No one
knows how long he may possess
it. No one knows at what mo-
ment the dread summons may
come. Knowing and realizing
this much, then, doesn't it rath-
er seem a good plan to make the
most out of life while we are
still here? Wouldn't it be much
better for all of us to banish
malice, greed, avarice, jealousy.
hatred and kindred things and
cultivate the finer qualities?
Friends are worth more than
dollars. There are, in fact, many
more desirable things than gre9r
wealth. AS we journey through
life, let us endeavor to make it
more on the order of pleasure
excursion, finding time to do the
things worth while, in so far as
our capacity permits us to do
them, and banishing the sordid
and narrow, the cheap and nasty,
the tinseled and trivial.-Win-
