decided to hold Gala Week celebra-
tion during the first week in March.
the news was, OF course. received with
| a great deal OF pleasure b. the people
OF the city generally. The opinion
seemed TO prevail then, however. that
the affair was going to be a small one,
that few attractions and a brass
band would be secured. 3 half dozen
or so advertising bills distributed. and
that few hundred visitors would
probably be brought to the city.
This erroneous impression was
quickly dispelled, and the people, not
only in Brunswick, but throughout
this entire section. now fully realize
that Brunswick is going to pull off a
real celebration something that will
| eclipse anything oil the kind ever at
tempted in this section of the state
/ and instead Of being small unimpor-
tant affair. it is going 10 be a great
big celebration. Instead OF hundreds
OF visitors, the city is planning to en-
certain thousands of them, and instead
of 4 few small attractions, the commit.
tee in charge has ID cd contracts
with some of the highest class and
most entertaining attractions ever pu,
on during one celebration. Instead of
sending out few cheaply printed
handbilI5 by mail, thousands of hand
some posters, illustrated and attrac-
tive signs have been sent throughout
this entire section by special men in
automobiles. Experts have been Sc
cured to take charge of the publicity
end OF the celebration and expert dec
orators have been secured to dress
us up" for the week A big sum OF
money has already been expended in
advertising and tho campaign will be
continued right up to the opehing
date.
But all of this work and all OF these
things have been done by few en-
terprising, energetic Bru4swickians,
Who are always ready to wora for the
city. They have labored day ana
night in perlectng the PLAYS, and now,
when they see the success of their
undertaking assured, they are calling
upon every Brunswickian to lend
helping hand. Those who have been
solicited foi funds have responded lib
orally; practically all of the money
necessary for the celebration has been
secured.
With all preliminary plans com
plote and with the committee in
charge still hard at work, right now
is the time when the cooperation Of

A Mistake, Mr.. President

President Wilson's appointment Of DR..
Cary T. Grayson to be medical director of the
navy with the rank Of rear admiral, is a
grave mistake. The President owes it to the
navy, to himself and to DR.. Grayson to recall
the nomination.
Nobody will question DR.. Grayson's pro
fessional fitness for the place to which the
President has named him. but to appoint him
over the heads OF 1873 able and experienced
officers OF the medical corps who are his
seniors is to return TO the regime of executive
favoritiem which did so much to domoralze
both branches of the service during the
Roosevelt Administration.
However able Dr. Grayson may be, he was
not promoted over 33 of his seniors because
Of transcendont talents. He was appointed
because he Is the friend and medical adviser
Of the President. who is warmly attached to
him and who desired to show his apprecia-
ton. The nomination is reward not for
what DR.. Grayson has done in the line Of
official duties but is reward for what he
has done for Woodrow Wilson.
The case is made worse by the fact that
promotion by seniority has been set aside in
the navy in favor Of promotion by selection;
but il was never contemplated that the selec-
ton should be made at the within Of the
President. I'm consequence. the Grayson
nomination, if confirmed by the Senate, must
inevitably demoralize the service from top
to bottom There can be no confidence here
after in the principle of selection, and every
officer will have a right TO feel that his add
vancement depends upon the personal in
fuence that he wields at the White House or
in quarters that command favor at the White
House.
The Grayson appointment is Wood APP
pointment and Pershing appointment
rolled into one. In the two most fragrant
instances Of personal favortism under the
Roosevelt Administration, the ability and th,
high character Of the benefciarics of execu-
tive injustice were generally recognized, but
that did not diminish the harm that was
done. The action of President Wilson in this
case is the more demoralizing because it is
so bewlderngly out of keeping with his
character and his methods. lie has never
played favorites in making promotions. No
army or navy officer has hitherto had occa-
sion to believe that the President ever al
lowed the personal equation to enter into
consideration in his official relations with the
service. Hereafter in place of certainty and
confidence, there can be only doubt and mis-
givings.
President Wilson has bundered b. allow
ing his heart to control his head in an APP
pointment which should have been made
solely with view to its effect upon tho
navy as a whole. The best way out is for
/ him 70 confess his mistake by withdrawing
/ the nomination and selecting medical di-
rector from among the men who have grown
gray in the service and have fairly earned
such signal promotion

withdraw from it in his more public eN'
nressions. One Of his best known de-
fences Of the women's movement was VIII
ton in 1906 in a letter TO "Thc London
Times" The militants had just reached
climax in their activities. He wrote:
Women. and for this they incur our Sc
we're disapprobation, arc excitable. lney
sesire 10 have the suffrage; to that emo
tbev storm the House Of Commons ana
clamor for the right to assist IN voting
FOR members Of the august assembly ~
vas unwise on their part; a breach IN good
manners, an error Of judgment, proof that
they have not yet learnt how to deal WIN
men.
But let il be remembered that men also
are excitable. London Town bore witness
10 the fact one day not so very ancient
when they skirmshed along the streets
a, night. even as an ineessant procession
Of motor omnibuses, whelmed the police
and INDUCED in every form of loutish
extravaganza, merely to celebrate happy
event THE relief Of Mafekingl. Now IN
the case Of the women the intemperateness
of which they were guilty held an idea,
going some way to excuse them. In the
case OF the men il was sheer animal e~u-
berance a headlong smashing OF things
handy for the blow. all in iollity. But II
we are asked which of the sexes is the
more open, in these two instances, to the
temporary form of insanity known az hys'
terra, can we say it was the woman? Or
can we say that women Of the Christian
day arc given to be disorderly in a body
Rather are they in their present develop
ment given to be subseryient to laws writ
ten or unwritten. Men have called them
slavish.
Consider. too, that the cause for which
these imprisoned women are suffering -
on its way TO be realized. Men have only
TO improve their knowledge Of women, and
it will be granted speedily. Sentimental
prattlc Of the mother. the wife, the sister,
is not needed when we see, as the choicer
spirits Of men do now see, that women
have brains, and can be helpful to the
hitherto entirely dominant masculine Great
ure who has allowed them some degree OF
influence in return for servile batteries
and the graceful undulations OF the snake
admired, yet dreaded.
This is typically Meredith in style and
content. 1t yields nothing; and it asserts
nothing beyond the facts. 1t shows the
moderate yet undoubting attitude of one
Of the best minds Of modern thought. He
saw the growth of women in its largest
vote as a milestone, symbol,
md necessary starting point of inspira-
lion and training-the general advance Of
women as matter Of slow evolution,
steadily and surely bringing aid and in
,piration to the whole human race.
