In ordinary times one could predict in detail with
more or less accuracy what reasonably to expect OF
president during his second term.
We would study the record of his first term and
summing that during his second term he would be con-
fronted with problems similar in general character
the future would be fairly clear.
In the Of President Wilson, who enters upon
his second term today if the great nations of the world
were at peace they were four years ago, it would
be less difficult than in the of most presidents
who have been reelected to anticipate his future pol
ICY and activities
For it seems to us President Wilson to greater de-
gree than any of his predecessors, during these later
years. entered upon his duties with clearly defined
ideas as to what the needs of the country both
from legislative and administrative standpoint and
consistently adhered to them.
In his many addresses to congress and public
speeches during the early part of his first term he
stated these ideas with unusual clarity and hes
itated to the full power of the presidential office
to influence the law making body to incorporate these
Ideas into law.
The great number of important measures adopted
by congress the direct result of the presidents in
citation and influence prove the efficacy of his method
for accomplishing results whether not we approve
OF the character of the laws.
Stated broadly the president policy i'm its relation
to domestic affairs has been one of constructive pre-
gresslvsm; honest determined effort for the most
part effective, to apply practical real democratic prn
cpes.
To free the business activities of the nation from
the sinister domination of powerfully entrenched
group of banking and industrial capitalists to the end
that there be more equitable distribution of the ire
mendous wealth production without destroying OF
handicapping business organization and effort has
been the presidents aim and purpose.
Much has been done and there can be little doubt
that under usual circumstances the policy would
have been followed during the next four years with
increasingly satisfactory results.
For many of the very men who were most hostile to
the president ideas when he first began to translate
them into realities have learned by eyperience that
they not inimical to individual effort and enter
prise but that they in the public interest in which
each citzen-big business man, little business man
and workingman-shares.

louder than words to the fundamental principles
which will inspire his leadership.
The following from "The Manufacturers Record" is
full of meaning for every true American:
'In this the supremest hour in the life of this
ton, and perchance in human civilization; in this
hour, big with destiny momentous beyond the human
mind to grasp, the nation on Bonded knee prays to
OUR HEAVENLY FATHER that strength of body
and mind and wisdom from on high may be given to
you.
at is a solemn hour, so momentous that every
right thinking stands appalled, as we come
squarely to face the future, and get vision
of what may be ahead of and how the future of this
nation and of all civilization may be influenced
through all time to come by what we do.
every true-hearted American puts aside all ques-
tions important at other times but petty now of po
tical afiliaon and of economic problems and stands
beside you to hold up your hands. The nation realizes
that the burden of responsibility is resting you,
and the nations sympathy is yours

Finally when Germany froced him to make the fate
full decision between dishonorabe peace and the de-
Tense of American rights and lives at the cost of
war, the president showed that his patience not
cowardice.
The prOmptness and firmness with which he met
the ruthless German challenge and his refusal to
treat inch from his position the best proofs
could have wish to have of the superb quality of
the Amercansm of the man we have chosen to lead us
during the next four years.
1t is given to no living man to know what the
future of the world or of this nation Is to be-
1t may be our destiny to be drawn into the vortex
of the terrific conflict.
1t may be that this will be spared u.s. that in other
ways we can more effectively do part in the
titanic contest between justice and injustice; between
democracy and autocracy; between international right
founded upon law and ruthless piracy.
Whatever is our destiny, the wisdom, patience and
courage during the past four years, of the man who
has again taken the oath president today, speak

In the midst of the presidents first term the Euro
pean war; which has since assumed such terrific pro-
portions, began.
AS the conflagration spread, first threatening to
involve and finally actually involving the vital inter-
ests of this country more and more of the president
Time thought and effort have had to be centered upon
THE international situation.
The president begins his second term carrying the
heaviest load of responsibility that any president of
the United States has carried with the possible
exceptions of Washington and Lincoln
1t is question whether either Washington or Lin
coin should be excepted.
Circumstances beyond control seem to be fore
ing the United States into the frghful catacysm of
the world war; the greatest tragedy in the history of
the human race
With patience, almost superhuman, against the
pressure of forces great that few could have
wihstood it, President Wilson has kept his pledge to
the nation to avoid war at any cost SAVE THAT OF

now?
In Des Moines, Ia. the poor
people needed coal, and prices
were so high they couldn't
buy the cinders. Did their
worthy mayor wait for the
state or the United States Of
ficials to pass a law to help
the people out of their trou-
bles? Not him. He was a
big enough American to take
the coal from a corporation
and give it to the poor, tell
ing the corporation to send
the bill to the city.

of the wealthy men of our
city to invest $1,000 apiece

per cent on the investment,
not only a fuel yard, but gro
ceries, meats and everything
sold to the working people.

founded it, when, etc.? LOU.
A.-The movement was found

in New York City: Since that
time the work has been taken up
I'm over one hundred cities. There
is a staff of paid workers, sup
plemented by volunteers-law-
yers, physicians. merchants, ex-
ecutives, teachers-busy men Sc

and natural ability to do effective
work. The Little Brothers are
boys referred by parents, hOspi-
tails, police, courts, by other boys,
and by the boys themselves. They
are The sons of widows, inebri-
ates, prisoners, Of careless or fg-
norant parents-boys who are

of 20. For three years he
has come to see me three
times a week, but now he calls
only twice week.
My girl friends insinuate
that he must be calling on
some other girl. He has al
ways been a perfect gentle
man, and his mother says he
has always been good at
home.
He wants me to marry him
in two weeks. Now shocld l
listen to my girl friends and
give him up? l could nof

with other girls, before or
after our marriage. M. M.
A.-Are the girls expressing
opinions or stating facts? There

,ften talk so much that they con
