President Fatioued by Great
Strain-Leaves for Paris. s..

Milan, Italy, Jan. President Will
son journeyed from Rome to Milan,
stopping at Genoa on the way. There
he was greeted by hundreds of thou
sands of the common people, who ac-
claimed him in the most extravagant
terms, fought and scrambled to be near
enough to touch him and even attempt
ed to kiss his hand Or clothing, us he
passed through the dense crowds surg
ing and buffeting about him.
Mr.. Wilson's visit of three hours in
Genoa was marred by tropical down
pour of rain which drenched the pres
ident and all of his party. Neverthe-
less, the president carried out his full
program, including a visit to the mon
uments of Columbus and Mazzini and
the city hall where he was given a
reception.
Rain Squalls Spoil Plans.
Whatever arrangements might have
been made to receive the president
were dissolved on his arrival, with the
city being Iashed by the binding rain
squalls. All the members OF the Off
cial party except Mr.. Wilson and his
wife were compelled to scramble for
themselves through the troop-lined
streets and make the best way posi-.
BILE back to the official train.
The balconies, the roofs and every
vantage point were black with people,
and the route had been plastered with
posters and pictures of President Will
son. with quotations from his speeches
which could be applied particularly to
Italy's position.
The president called at the city hall
where the freedom of the city was be.
slowed upon him. He then proceeded
to- the royal palace, where he received
delegations. going thence to La Scala
where he dined. and where it was
hoped he would attend the opera.
Wilson Much Fatioued.
The American secret service mon
declared that they had never taken
any president through such scenes OF
demonstrations or such great crowds.
1t was evident that tlle president was
much fatlgued by the strain.
OF the main incidents OF the visit
perhaps the most touching was the
presentation by wounded soldiers OF
a memorial favoring n league of ma.
tiOns.
The principal speech delivered by
the president was at the municipal re.
ception. where he reiterated that
peace must be made or no special In
terest.
Beforc leaving Genoa President VIII
son laid a:wreath on tlie statue of Co.

Mr.. Stagg sometimes actually found
reflection of the cheerful figure of
"Hannah's Car'lyn" coming between
him and the big ledger over which he
spent so many of his waking hours.
Once he looked up from the ledger
1t was on a Saturday morning-and
really did see the bright figure of the
little girl standing before him. 1t
was no dream. or fancy, for old Jimmy,
the cat. suddenly shot to the topmost
shelf, sQualling with wild abandon.
Prince was nosiDg along at Carolyn
Mays side.
"Bless mel' croaked Mr.. Stagg
"That dog of yours. Car'lyn May, will
give Jimmy conniption fit yet. What
d'you want down here?
Carolyn May told him. A man had
come to the house to buy a cow and
Aunty Rose had sent the little cir
down to tell Mr.. Stagg to come home
and "drive his own bargain"
"Well, WELL" said Mr. Stagg, lock
ing the ledger in the safe, "I'll hustle
right out and tend to 1t. Don't SEE
why the man couldn't have waited til
noontime. Hey, you, Chetl Look ou

"And he hasn't always got his nose

"Well-I wouldn't say that he neg

boy honestly. "You see, we men have
got to think Of business mostly. But
he sure is thinkin' of some other things

"What things, Chet?" Carolyn May
asked anxiously, hoping that Uncle
Joe had shown some recovered inter
est in Miss Amanda and that Chet had
noticed it.
"Why-well- Now, you see, there's
that house you used to live in. You
know about that?"
"What about it, Chet?" the little
girl asked rather timidly.

To Andrew Carnegie, more
than to any other individual, is
due the wonderful development
in the great iron and steel inter
ests of this country, and the
laird of Skibo" since his retire
ment from active leadership has
established a record unique in
the worlds history by giving
away an amount approximately
estimated at $3O0,OOO,OOO in
benefactions at a rate of $4,000
a day. His was a record of
superlative accomplishments on
the strength of native ability,
foresight and ambition, employ
ed in an avenue of wonderful
opportunity. 1t was made pos
sible to the limits achieved only
under conditions of development
of great natural resources, but
men of the Carnegie type will
always forge to the front, be-

Most of us have not appreciat-
ed the extent of our recent for
eign trade. Some figures will be
Illuminating. June merchandise
exports of $918,242,671 were
not only the largest ever report
ed in a single month, but 80 per
cent greater than a year ago
and six times larger than the
same month in 1914. For the
fiscal year ended June 80 the ex-
cess of exports over imports was
81, 129,000,000. No country
ever before ended a year with
such large trade balance in its
favor; the'figures just given be-
ing % times larger than the ex-
port excess shown in 1910.
Naturally this big export move
ment has been a real vital fac
tor in restricting supplies and
boosting prices here at home.

BETTER ROADS NEEDED.

BIZ E4R ROADS NEEDED.
The road building era is upon
us. All over the west the same
spirit seems to prevail. People
are awakening to the needs OF
better roads and their import
ance to the country. Road
building next year will be the
greatest industry of the west,
for hundreds OF thousands OF
men will be employed in the con-
struction of roads in Washing
ton, Oregon and Idaho. The
government is fully awake to the
need Of doing something in this
line for the west and will spend
millions of dollars in the next
two years in building good roads
where they are so badly needed.
The automobile is becoming
more popular as a means of trav-
ell. The railroads are losing out.
Transcontinental roads are being
built for automobile travel that
will make this method of getting
about the country more popular
and increase its volume. Nothing
helps a country like good roads.
They add to the value of lands
and they build up trading CEN
tiers.
The road building program
started this year but the
changes of the system for Sc
curing federal aid for post roads
stopped the work almost every
where until the necessary data
could be secured and application
made. This means much more
money for road building, but the
work cannot be started until
next spring. Then there will
be the greatest demand for men
and teams for road building that
the west has ever known. Every
district will want to get it's work
done first.

NATURE KEEPS WORKING.
1t is comforting to know that
no matter what a man may do
nature continues to function as
usual. Down near Harrington
in Washington it is claimed one
farmer has harvested $4,000
worth of volunteer" wheat
which represents $500 more
bushels than was harvested from
the same. tract the last time it
was cultivated.
Strikes may arrest certain in
dustries but no matter how
strongly man may be organized
he has no means of changing the
weather or the seasons. The
sun rises and sets as usual and
the moon holds its place and the
North Star remains as fixed as
ever.
So it goes along with nature.
The world has seen civilizations
come and go and remains I'M
changed in fundamental feat
ures. When seed is in the
ground and conditions are fa-
vorable it follows it's natural in
stincts and sprouts and flour
ishes.
So perhaps it is a good thing
that man cannot control some
things. The persons entrusted
with operating them would per-
haps form a soviet and placing
their own selfish interests above
the welfare of the world and 9TH
er people would no doubt demand
a different arrangement of the
seasons be made or else they
would shut off the sunlight.
Man may we'll take a lesson
from nature in that nature keeps
at work and is therefore always
relible.

sightedness and initiative create
