The President Abroad.

! \ London cable thus quotes the Pail
Mall Gazette:
! I'VE are authorized TO say President
! Wilson is more than delighted with
the extreme cordially of his reception
in England Il has been 10 him IN
almost overwhelming experience The
! Prcsiden C5f~o is exceedingly. gratiGcd
with the general result of his CONVEX
Saticns with the premier and Mr.. Bal
four 1t has been peculiar source of
satisfaction to him to meet and OK
change views with so many distin-
guishcd statesmen. These opportuni
ties have enabled him to gauge public
opinion in this country and see GER
tain matters in different perspective"
The President must have been de
lighted with his reception in England.
It was extremely cordial. The king
led in the demonstrations, and all his
subjects followed And the President
must have profted in some way by his
exchange of views with leading Eng
lish statesmen But how much his own
views were affected by theirs nobody
is authorized to say" for nobody
knows Nobody knows even just what
MS views were before he met the Eng
fish statesmen.
The President was very cordially and
handsomely received in France, and
exchanged views with the leading
statesmen of that country. But how
much, if at all, his views were influ-
eaced by theirs is his secret. The pub
lie may never know.
Today the President is leaving
France for Italy, where his reception
will be as cordial as that he received
in England and France He has al.
ready met the king and the Italian
premier, who journeyed to Paris for
the purpose, and knows in outline their
views. There will be further ex-
changes between them in Rome. So
that at the conclusion of his visit the
President will understand the Italian
case as we'll as he does the English
case and the French case.
As all know, the President is an i'm
questionable man. He shifts his foot
with ease. That he now sees some
things in a different light from that
that beat upon them before he sailed
is altogether likely. Indeed, it would
be a miracle if he did not. So much
has come to him since then from
sources so high in authority, it is but
reasonable to assume that he has prob
ably been adjusting his stand to some
of it.
Meanwhile, it is important to re-
member, the United States Senate has
remained at home, doing business at
the old stand It has conferred with
no foreign potentate or potentate's min
listers, but holds views unaffected by
foreign influences of any kind. And
q it has, and will exercise, the power
of review, whatever is done at Yer
sailles must pass muster before it. And
a two-thirds vote will be necessary to
the ratification of any treaty presented
to it.

Father Time.

Old Father Time as he goes on his way
Sends snow in December and roses in
May.
He has sunshine for those who are
worthy of cheer,
And to sorrow he brings the relief of
tear.
He measures the pace of the stars so
sublime.
He's a busy performer, is Old Father
Time.
There's no limit at all to the things
he can do.
He tears down the old and he builds
up the new.
His strange transformation are made
without end;
He frequently changes a foe to a
friend.
And the snowfakes that fall and the
roses that climb
Are Natures fond greetings to old
Father, Time

Mr.. Callahan's Valuable Service.

| In his retirement from the post of
/ director Of the District war savings
campaign Mr. d. J. Callahan, who was
compelled by pressure of private bust
ness TO rclinQnsh that duty, receives
( the warmcst commentator for the
energetic and successful manner in
which he served during the year. It
immateriai whether the District made
| its quota of $7,3S5,640, which is at
1 present uncertain Washington under
Mr.. Callahan's inspiration has done
| splendidly in the matter of war savings
stamp purchases. lie has kept the sub
jet constantly before the people, and
through his earnestness and unfagging
zeal has been the means of inducing
this community to make very large
addition to its reserve funds. The mid
lions that have been paid into the
Treasury for stamps have materially
helped in financing the war.
A new stamp issue for 1919 is ar
ranged, and it is to be hoped that Mr.
Callahan's successor will have the same
public support in making it success
that the now retiring director has
achieved Washington knows how to
buy war savings stamps now and
should go right on taking these "baby
bonds" regularly and Systematically.
Mr.. Callahan's work has been in the
nature of foundation laying, and
substantial structure of thrift should
now be erected.

Professional Enemies Of Crocodile,

There are men whose business it is
to catch crocodlles and who earn their
living by that means. And whenever
a human being has fallen a victim a
professional crocodile catcher is asked
to help to destroy the murderer, and a
large reward offered him. The ma
jority of natives will not interfere with
the reptiles, or take any part In their
capture, probably fearing IL they do
anything Of the kind they themselves
may soma time or other suffer for 1t
by being attacked by a crocodile.

Watering House Plants,

Plants should be watered with a
spray, not with a cup or glass.
Those that can be moved should be
placed where the water will not dam
age carpets or aoors; those that can
not-such as large ferns or palms
should have something spread on the
floor beneath them to catch the water
as II drips. The water must be
sprayed from above so that all the
leaves receive IL; this carries OFF the
dust and is the only natural way for
a plant to receive water.
