ingly time enough has gone by and
things enough have been proved or
disproved to give certainty to the
word that Woodrow Wilson has found
Edward NJ. House an advisory asset.
There hardly can be much OF real
mystery about a man who twice since
this great war began las been sent
abroad as special commissioner for
the president of the United States. Col
onel House has been twice in Berlin,
five times in Paris, and frequently in
other of the great European capitals.
Some day it may be that Woodrow
Wilson will write what may be called
an photographed review Of his adj
ministration. If he does 1t is entirely
likely that the part taken by Colonel
House in the shaping Of some OF the
policies of the president may be given
the page place which many men be-
lieve that 1t deserves.
No Mystery There.
While living in New York Colonel
House resides in an apartment not
very far uptown. 1t Is q homellke
place where good books are found and
where good friends may come. 1t is q
genial place and no curtain of mystery
hangs over the door of any one OF Its
rooms. Men 60 there and are well
come. They 60 and they talk. Man
learns as much from man as he learns
from books and more perhaps II we
believe the ancient saying about the
proper study Of mankind.
