MISS WILSON TO
APPEAR IN RECITAL,

President Wilson expects to spend
the summer at Shadow Lane, Elberon,
N. J. His oldest daughter, Margaret,
well known as a soprano of ability,
has been engaged through the Stand
ard booking Office Of New York for
recital to be given in the audito-
rum at Ocean Grove, on Saturday
evening, July Is. The fee guaran-
teed Miss Wilson by the Campmeet-
ing Association is q large one, not
because Miss Wilson values her serv-
ices above those of other artists, but
because she is interested in earning
as much as possible for certain move
ments with which she is concerned.
A special box viii be prepared for
the president and his family, and the
occasion promises to be one Of the
most brilliant and memorable in the
annals of this historical temple of
music.
Miss Wilson has made but few pub
lie concert appearances, and her first
appearance was about a year ago
when she sang at the Syracuse must
cal festival before an audience of
5000 people. She later sang at Buff
falo, Cleveland, Detroit and Erie. She
has had many offers to sing in New
York, and other prominent places,
hut has declined on the plea that she
is not professional singer. Her re-
cital in Ocean Grove should. there
fore, be accepted not only as an ar,
tistic event, but as one of special
favor.
AS the daughter Of the president
of the United States, Miss Wilson has
position to maintain, and it is to
her credit that she is able to devote
her time to noble ends by contribut-
ing her philanthropy. 1t is as a
singer, however, that she viii pre-
sent Lerself on this occasion, and
wishes to be accepted as such.

TIE MOTHERS PRAYER.

Here is his little cambria frock
That I laid by in lavender so sweet,
And here his tiny shoe and sock
made with loving care for his
dear feet.
| fold the frock across my breast,
And in imagination, an, my sweet,
Once more hush my babe to rest,
And once again I,warm those little
feet.
Where do those strong young feet
now stand?
In flooded trench, half numb to
cold or pain,
Or marching through the desert cand
To some dread place that they may
never gain.
God guide him and his men today,
Tho death may Turk in any tree or
hill,
His brave young spirit is their stay,
Trusting in that they'll follow
where he will.
They love him for his tender heart
When poverty or sorrow asks his
aid,
But he must see each do his part
Of cowardice alone he is afraid.
I ask no honors on the field,
That other men have won Is brave
as he
I only pray that God may shield
My sen, and bring him safely back
to met
