When our entrance into the war with the Hun became a reality, the musical wiseacres immediately as- sumed a knowing attitude and said: "There will be one war song hit, nothing else will have a chance. ," These same "wiseacres" agreed that another Hot Time in the Old Town" or a Dolly Gray" would spring up and head all other num- bers in point of popularity. The usual mass of patriotic numbers written by the amateur was expect ed, but the veterans of the song business looked for the real hit to come from one of their ranks. Therefore the surprise was all the greater when melody lane' awoke one morning to find that two un- knowns had scored a bulls-eye in public favor with Goodbye Broad way, Hello France" Encouraged by CTS tried their hands with more or less abandon For time it looked as though professional composers had been out-distanced. This was not because of lack of effort on their part, for practically all were racking their brains for new ideas. Songs of all kinds were exploited, costing publishers fortunes and many nights of sleep. While they fumed and fretted the despised "am- ateurs' continued to, turn in songs that made money and brought them fame, forcing publishers to admit that the unknowns were going to play a big part in making song his tory during the war Then George M Conan came with lover There, D and was closely followed by w.

President Wilson's Wife Is a Beautiful Woman and Knows How
 to Dress.
REGARDING SUFFRAGE
Mrs. SuIzer, Wife of the Delegate from Alaska, Writes Interesting
 Letter.

Writing from the National capital to friends in Juneau, Mrs. Charles A. Sulzer wife of Alaska's Delegate to Congress, says under date of Jan. nary 21st:
 There is so much of interest just now that one harly knows where to begin. When the President speaks to the joint session, admission to the galleries is by ticket only, and usually each Congressman has but one ticket When the Serbian Mis- sion was received in the House the other day. MT. Sulzer had two tick cts, so Mir. Troy and I went over expecting to hear the Serbian minis ter, but found when we arrived there that President Wilson had notified Congress that he had something to say and that he would be there at noon. He came and read his now famous peace proposals. He read very slowly and distinctly, and ev- cry one appeared to realize that he was very much in earnest He was repeatedly cheered, every one stand ing When he retired, the Serbian Mission came in and were warmly received. They were fine looking men dressed in khaki colored uni forms, very much like our own sol diers. The Minister addressed the House in understandable English un- til he tried to say indefatigable'. He attempted to say the word three times and then very tactfully gave it up.
 q was in the gallery the day the suffrage amendment was passed. The House convened at eleven o'clock with Billy Sunday leading in prayer. He made a splendid prayer but talk ed so rapidly that the House steno- graphers couldn't take down all he said. Billy never fails to tell the Lord what he thinks of the Kaiser. When he finished speaking the peo- pie applauded. It was the first time I had ever heard a prayer applauded. The galleries were filled to over flowing and there were long lines of WOIlltH WdltlH6 GU NdNh NOCi. n great many of the women had brought their lunches in their knit ting bags and these stayed until 7:15 in the evening when the amend ment was passed by one vote. Miss Jeanette Rankin made the opening speech in favor of the amendment. Congressman Clark, of Florida, made the principal speech against #.
 "On the preceding Monday l had attended the committee hearing on the suffrage amendment. Ex-Sena- tor Bailey, of Texas spoke against it. He used that old hackneyed argu- ment of the breaking up of the home and pictured women walking along the streets smoking cigars. He also made the astonishing statement that he liked to know when he left his home in morning that his wife was in his castle, but the whole wide world was his to conquer. After him came Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt. She spoke for suffrage and when she got

 ''Id like to tell you something bout the weather here. We have lad as low as six below zero, un- leard of in Washington before, and t was almost unbearable. l have lever in all my twelve years resi- 'ence in Alaska been so thoroughly old and miserable as during the past hree weeks in Washington. Dr. Gar ields closing order created quite a ume here, but from all l can gather was very necessary to awaken the people to the stern realities we are 'acing and will have to face in the 'uture, if the war continues.
 Mrs. Woodrow Wilson is a very beautiful woman, very young look ng, and she knows how to dress. iaw her at one of the joint sessions n company with an English duchess ITS. Wilson wore a becomingly tail )rded suit of rich black material and nat to match. The only touch of color was broad band of red round the hat and large corsage lower of the same color. The eff 'ect was stunning. Of course, l sat n the gallery, but Sonny sat with lis dad in the House and was intro luced to many distinguished mem 5ers.
 MT. Sulzer and Sonny join me n best wishes to all our friends whom you may see, and especially to your ;elves. Be sure and write me all he Alaska news.
 Cordially yours,

LONDON, Feb 5.-British rail ways which have been under state control since the beginning of the war, have been operated through an Executive committee of general man agers of railways. The working un- der one control has resulted in many economies and proved of great ad- vantage to the State.
 Under the original agreement made with the companies they are guar anteed the same net receipts as for 1913 Afterward the companies were given allowances in respect of new capital employed. Irish railways did not come under State control until 1916.

(By F. M. WICKES. ]

When the Spanish-American war broke out in '97, popular song writ ing as an honest to goodness pro fession was still in 'swaddling clothes" The various lyric and melody writers of the time had not yet acquire dthe trick of express ing in words and music the ideas uppermost in the heart and mind of the public. AS result, we had 10 real war songs, save one or two exceptions, until sometime after the close of the conflict with Spain. It was for this reason that our sail DTS and soldiers seeking a martial number with the proper pep and swing, took "A Hot Time in the Old Town as their own and made it a world wide success.

speech. in which he defined gov

and for the people, and told why
that great war was being fought, so
that such a government might not
perish from the earth. that wonder
full man gave utterance TO immortal
thoughts fitting the occasion. using
mighty few words TO clothe them for
Imperishable glory. SO too has VIII
son, as III Lincoln reincarnated, tells
in simple words why the world war
was fought, at least why the great
democracy entered upon the strug-
gle. in the following language. as re.
ported in his first address In Paris,
speaking In response 10 the welcome
OF the French president
From the first the thought Of
the people of the United States
turned toward something more
than the mere winning of this
war. II turned to the establish
ment of eternal principies OF
right and justice. 1t realized that
merely to win the war was not
enough. that II must be won In
such way and the question
raised by IL settled IL such
way as TO insure the future
peace of the world and lay the
foundations for the freu'om and
happiness OF ids many peoples
and nations.
