WILSON'S MESSAGE

President Wilson on Monday ad-
dressed congress on the position Of
America regarding the conditions Of
peace with the Central powers In
such plain and convincing language
that he who runs may understand.
In positive and unmistakable Ian
guage he informs the leaders Of Ger
many's military autocracy that Sec
ret treaties behind closed doors will
not pc permitted any longer, and
that the day Of conquest and assran-
dizement, as we'll as secret covenants
favorins certain nations, is forever
past.
He lays down a code of rights for
the protection of all nations in the
future be they large or small for
their protection and advancement,
and for the maintenance of these
rights he guarantees the full power
of the greatest and most powerful ma
ton Of the earth.

MAJORITY OF US ARE BoREs
Many People Give Preference to Dis
cussion Of Own Affairs Rather
Than to Other Fellows.

The Irish World gives the first test
try on themselves, in these words:
Do you monopOf-e the conversation
wherever you go with breathless ac-
counts Of your own affairs?
If let alone long enough the major
ity of us do. Our own affairs are so
much more interesting than the other
persons. 1t takes some wisdom and
considerable culture to subordinate the
self.
Under this definition, the baby is
sometimes bore, but we forgive him
for we know that he has neither the
wisdom nor the culture to set his lit
tie self to one side. 1t should not be
expected of him.
But there Is about the baby none of
the subtle deceitfulness of the old,
practiced bore who deftly turns the
conversation to his own exploits and
affairs. Baby simply takes of the
muffler from his personal self. The
entire households attention turns at
once to his affairs. He monopolizes the
conversation with his breathless ac-
count of his hunger or of his connec-
tion with the open safety pin-and
that is all there is to it.
The growing child frankly finds him
self the most interesting person in the
world, and we forgive him to some ex
tent and attempt to show him that he
must conceal his personal liking for
himself. Some of us may recall the
story of the little boy who had been a
delighted listener while his mother Ga
real bOre) told the neighbors of his
cute little manners and ways. When
she branched off to some other sub
ject. the little boy listened while in
manifest uneasiness till the conversa-
ton Jagged the merest trifle. Then
he broke in with his perfectly natural
request:
Say, ma, let's talk some more about
