 WILSON STILL OUR CANDIDATE.
 Americans who have contentcdly taken it for granted that woodrow Wilson would be the first President of the League of Nations may be disap- pointed. J. L.. Garvin, editor of the London Observer, has appeared as tho promoter of the candidacy of Lloyd George, Prime Minister of England, who, ,hc believes, is better situated to occupy the office because his political station is probable to be more perna- nent than that of Americas leader. Writing along this line, Garvin com mentS:
 We must remember what an
 incomparable advantage British
 political conditions give ill the
 long run to any man who achieves
 personal supremacy, Long after
 Wilson has ceased to be PreSiden of the United States or Clemen-
 ceau to be French Premier, Llo[u : George will not only play the
 same part as he does now bIl
 will be more and more recognized
 as the strongest. statesman. ot his
 time, unrivaled in genius for lead-
 crship. in variety of experience, in
 historic achieveme
 If the League of Nations Is to
 be a living and working reality,
 If the world is. to be saved from
 war before the lapse of another
 decade, Lloyd George, in our
 view, will have to do more than
 any other statesman to develop
 the league and to avert calamity
 in domestic affairs.
 America. will be pardoned if it dis sents from the opinion of tho London editor. He speaks Of the British Prlnl Minister as being "unrivaled for gen. jus in leadership, in variety of eSperi- ence. in historic achievement. In variety of experience alone, may Lloyd George claim superiority TO our mind there is only one man VITO is "unrivaied in genius for 1eaoersh'P ,nd .an historic achievement" and his name Is Woodrow wilson.

 FAIRBANKs AND BARIs1MORE.
 Score another victory for the mo- lion pictures. The profound minds of Princeton, as represented by the senior class, have registered a prefer ence for Douglas Fairbanks over John Barrymore on the vote for the favor ite actor, despite the fact that Barry more is hailed along Broadway as the leading interpreter of the drama in America today The ballot was part of the class statistics in which the members of the class made known
 The stars Of filmland also receive ma jcrities in the vote for the favorite actress being preferred to the women of the so-calIed legitimate stage. Nor ma Ta1madge wins first fonors with Elsie Ferguson Marguerite Clark Constance Talmadge and Madge Ken nedy following in the order named.
 The Princeton incident is iHustra- tive of the great change that has been wrought in the past decade. M ost people can remember the crude film entertainments of ten years ago with fickering machines, frequent breaks in the strip and the customary re- quest to the audience to exercise pa- tience while the operator in the gal lery booth devoted a minute to the change of reels. Only the far-visionet could see at that time the strides mo ton pictures were to take and Onl1 the most optimistic could hope tha the senior class of a representative Am merican university would prefer tht men and women who silently pass te fore them on the screen to their fel low-workers in the next yard who ap pear in person and accompan. l their gestures with words that al 1 might hear.
