The Gift of "Intuifion"

President Wilson has contributed to
the humor Of current politics by writing
letter to ex-senator William E. Chill
ton, Of West Virginia. Mr.. Chiffon asked
for an Endorsement which would help
him in his fight with ex-senator Clarence
W. Watson for the Democratic Senatorial
nomination.

MIR. Wilson tactfully replied:

and be met by a just.fiablc resentment on
the part OF the constituency concerned.

Ihere are apparently states and states.
Is West Virginia more capable of "iusti

nols? Do Messrs. Ford and Lewis lack
that delicate 'intuition' in such matters
which is enjoyed by statesmen who dwell
in the rarefed air Of West Virpinia,s
mountain tops and live up to the proud
motto on their commemorative great
seal; "Momtani sempey hbcrj' ("Moun-

THE Days of Real
IL Sport Again

The armistice bells had scarcely ceased
ringing when 80 per cent of Britain began
to discuss sport, just about where they left
off in 1914.
"Ths German business has been an an
noy;ng interruption. but we must get things
going again quickly for 1919" was the gen
eral tone Of conversation. And so plans
already quickly forming and in few
months sport VIII begin to take its old
time appearance. From the government and
the army it Will receive every encourage
ment. The leaders Of the nation, both DO
itcal and military, have never ceased to
acknowledge the debt that those little Brit
ish armies owed to sport.
First and forcmost comes horscracinr.
That emphatically is the great sport of the
English masses; and now that the war is
over one may freely say that part of any
industrial discomfort here has been due to
the virtual shutting down OF this sport. 1t
is hoped that racing will be in full swing
again shortly after Christmas and that next
year viii the Derby again at Ep-
som, the stately pageantry of Ascot and the
picnics among the trees of Goodwood.
