Impressed by His Welcome

Paris, Dec 16.-President Wilson's

to inspect the golf course, which, on
advice of Rear Admiral Grayson, his
personal physician, he will probably

Tomorrow night the president Will
attend the reception to be given by
Ambassador Sharp at the American
embassy. King Victor Emmanuel and
Queen Elena of Italy will be recei" I'd
at the Murat residence between 5
and o'clock Thursday evening.
Today's reception was the last of
the affairs arranged wholly by the
French government. Hereafter all
Mr. Wilson'S movements will be ar
ranged for by his personal staff. His
conference with Premier Lloyd
George of Great Britain is still IN
definite as to time, but it probably
will not occur before the end OF this
week.
President Wilson, who is a keen
observer of people and public opinion.
Is said to have been impressed by the
hearty welcome of the French people
as an evidence of interest in the prin-
ciples he has expressed for the con-
cert of the nations and the preserva-
ton of peace. He is understood to be
convinced that there are no differ
ences in principle between the peopleS
