ing Of because they are as spies.
other persons of German descent are
not suffering as the people of the
south did. Another reason is that
two whole countries are fighting
and not half of one against the
other half. No doubt if Wilson had
the opportunity he would perform
kind acts as Lincoln did, for he is
not against the German people, but
he is opposed TO their military form
Of government.
These two great men ruled when
two great periods of American his
tory have been formed. Before Will
son took the presidential chair he
had honOrs given him, such a
professor Of history in a university,
president of Princeton university
and governor of New Jersey. No
doubt after his administrations have
come to a close he will again as
sumo one of these positions l have

in any of these and it might be said
he jumped TO the top while Wilson
advanced step by step.

FIRST PRIZE.

By Cecil Lytle, 81. Patrick's school.
Wilson and Lincoln are two of the
most noted presidents that have ever
served the United States on account
Of the two greatest wars; Lincoln
al the head of the Civil war and
WiAon at the head of the great
world war. Lincoln was a man well
thought OF by the people, particularly
Of the northern states on account of
the sympathy he showed for the
slaves of the southern states and
Lincoln thought IL his duty 70 free
the slaves. consequently he declared
war on the south. And by so doing
made the slaves free citizens of the
United States and, therefore, gained
for himself great praise as president
OF the United States.
But Wilson declared war on Ger
many not only out of sympathy
alone for the people of other coun-
tries, but he considered il his duty
to repay France for what she did
for us in the rebellion between the
United States and England and also
because he thought he must do
away with the wrongs that Germany
was imposing on the United States
and France by obstructing the free
dom OF the seas.
In order TO do away with this inn
position it was necessary for him as
president OF The United States 70 de-
clare war on Germany. It is gem
orally considered by the people of
the United States and France that
Wilson is not only a very sympa-
thetic man, but is also a very smart
man 10 carry on this war as sue
cessfully as he has in the past with
as little loss OF life and damage to
property of the United States as he
has. so 7 would say that the differ
ence between Wilson and of Lincoln
is very great, because Wilson has a
great deal more to contend with
than Lincoln had. as he has duties
on both sides of the water and
enemies TO deal with that it seems
impossible TO get 10.
Where Lincoln did not have the
ocean between him and his enemies.
therefore. / would say il was a very
much easier matter for Lincoln 10
do what ne thought was his duty as
president than il is for Wilson 10 do
his duty as president

THIRD PRIZE.
BY Clarence Meiser, st. Patrick's
school


Lincoln, our greatest president,
fought for the freedom of slaves. He
did all that was in his power for the
cause and i'm the end sacrificed his
life that slavery might be abolished.
Wilson is now lighting for the
greatest cause that could exist TO
make the world safe for democracy,
and 10 conquer autocracy. Wilson
has already shown much wisdom and
before the war when the Germans,
time after time, sank our vessels,
and insulted America, Wilson knew
that America was not yet prepared
10 declare war on Germany, so he
waited until America was prepared
before declaring war.
1t was only a few months after
the declaration O. war that Ameri-
can soldiers set foot on French soil.
Now the soldiers form and endless
stream across the sea TO help the
French. The French have much
confidence in the American people,
for they believe the Americans fin
ism what they say.
But after all we are only paying
back France a great debt which we
owe since the time when France
helped us in the Revolution war. II
it were not for the help France gave
US in that war. the American ma
ton would not exist.

Two OF the greatest men in our
history are Woodrow Wilson and
Abraham Lincoln. Prest Wilson.
who is now serving his second ad-
ministration. is one of the great
leaders in the great world war
Pres't Lincoln served two admins
trations during which time the Civil
war was fought.
These two great men are very diff
ferent in the way their education
was obtained. Wilson had the bene-
nj OF public schools and colleges. but
Lincoln received his education in
small log schoolhouse. which ne at
tended for only a few months and
from his mother. Later when a
man Lincoln entered college TO study
law
These two men have not served
the people for their personal gain,
but have thought only of the people
~ the United States by whom they
were elected. Neither man has been
on the battlefield. but both have
done their bit by the two great vir-
tues WnlCn tAtA ootH ioHSeeSeu.
These two virtues are writing books
and making speeches which get in
To- the hearts of the people. In this
way they are OF more value 10 their
country than il they were on the
firing line commanding our armies
as King Albert Of Belgium is doing.
Lincoln has many acts OF kind
moss recorded which have been
mostly for the people OF the south.
Although ne knew the people came
frcm that mart of the country which
was agains, him. he did not think OF
tnem as enel0ies. Wilson IS not in
position as Lincoln was Nearly
