A French journalists Estimate
OF the Famous Texan.

eff silence is golden" said a French
,urnalist, after his first encounter with
Colonel House, at the American EN-
bassy in Paris, ''that colonel of yours
ought to be the richest man in the
world.n
1t is evident that Colonel House
takes a certain pride ia his ability to
''bafle the reporters AT a private
luncheon at the Embassy, thee day after
his meeting with the assembled French
and American newspapermen, he re-
lated with some self-satisfa ito that an
American correspondence London had
said that compared with Colonel
House the Sphinx was a garrulous old
lady at a tea party"
The French journalists could make
nothing of him. In the first place they
were ~agreeably surprised that a "secret
envoy would see them at all. 1t is
not customary in Europe for it~inerant
diplomatic agents to meet newspaper
men-at least not in a group. They
are supposed to be the original "gnm
shoe men," who travel incOg, drop in
through the back doors of the en-
bassies, or at the rooms of other icon
fidential agents." whisper their secrets
and depart ~noi-elessly.
When they do see the newspaper
men, either singly or together, which
is rare, it is always for a purpose. The
situation may be such that it suits their
game to have such a thing appear in
print, and when it does appear the
source of it is generally secret.
On the surface the way of Colonel
House is infinitely more attractive.
He announced when he left New York
that he was going to Europe 'to look
things over an announcement that
was reprinted in all the European
papers, followed by surmises of all
kinds. When he came to London he
acted on "the quiet" as behooves a
secret agent, but his departure for Paris
was announced in the London papers,
telegraphed to Paris, was ed~itorialized
and chronicled according to the char
acteris!ic manner of each paper.
Quizzing Began Here, but Soon
= Came to a Halt.
When he first arrived in Paris he
said he had no statement to give to the
press, which was regular and expected.
The next day it was announced to
newspapermen who happened to call at
the embassy that Colonel House would
see the representatives of the press
at II O'clock. which, under ordinary
circumstances, would mean he had
something to say.
Promptly at II o'clock he did appear.
Taking his position at the end of a long
reading table in the public reception
room, he faced the quizzing battery on
his feet. The first few seconds the can
nonading was lively enough, but after
a few chilling 81 can't say" "No,"

would-be cross-examiners began to act

Although the bird traveller has no

preparations for the journey.
The warbler, which nests in Alaska.
and passes the winter In northern.
South America, should moi begin an
5000 mile voyage through the air over
mountains, plains and seas unless its
engine is in good order and it has q
proper supply of fuel.
But" you ask. what is a birds en-
CINE, and where does it carry fuel?"
A birds engine is really its wings
and the muscles which move them. II
is one of the most perfect engines In
the world. 1t is simple. but strong. 1t
works easily. but it is powerful and
rarely gets out of order.
For many years man tried to make
flying machines which should have
wings like those of birds. But he never
succeeded. He could not make even u
feather! Finally he discovered that il
he would make a machine that would

CINE. So he constructed an aeroplane.

A utility bag which answers the pur-
pose of a laundry and shoe bag, with
two other pockets for various articles,
will be found very convenient when
travelling. This bag can be taken from

without disturbing it's contents.
Cretonne is perhaps the best mate

the two strips attach pockets to the

the raw edges with tape. When the
bag is completed this flap will snap OF

Across the bottom after the flap has
been measured off attach shoe pockets
Bind a long piece Of material with tape
across n side. then lay it into -four
box plaits, dividing them by means OF

the pockets are basted in place.
Above these pockets attach another
bag the width of the strip underneath
and any desired depth. Bind top edge
with tape divided into two sections
and stitch tape acorss the bottom.
Now lace the long strips to a depth
of five inches with Saline and stitch q

How the French Reporters Wrote
of the Colonel.

The French fellow members Of the
profession" had to confine all express
sion of their real feelings to their pri-
vate remarks. There is a censorship
in France that watches over them all.
What they did write was something on
this plan: After announcing the ar
rival of Colonel House, particular
friend and confidential agent of DIR.
Wilson, the learned jurist TINT presides
over the destinies of the United States,
a great neutral ma ion whose people
have nevertheless in many ways ex-
pressed their sympathies with France,
they went on with a Fourtt enth of
July Grafton, detailing how Colonel
House would find France strong and
resolute to fight to the end, conscious
of her W strength, of that of her al
lies, and of the justice of her cause etc.
In the actual interview the writers
properly represented themselves as the
ones who did most of the talking. In
the Temps, the Colonel was quoted in
English as having made two answers,
and each consisted of the one word,
"No.u
In personal appearance Colonel
Hou.e is not u~nsttractive. He has the
air of the student rather than that
of the rancher, miner or frontiersman.

He looks sharp, keen-witted and would
probably be a first cla-s hand at poker,
stock dealing or any other form of hsz-

keep your eye on. In stature he is of
medium size. His body is slender, the
shoulders slightly STOPPING and the
head large for the sizs of the body.
The hair is thin, grayish, the forehead
round and slightly bullying. The nose,
high-ridged and sharp. The eyes are
small, penetrating and set wide apart.
The smile restrained. The mouth firm
and the chin broad. 1t is the high

everyone was speaking in a hushed
