PLAYING UP TO THE TEACHER
Shrewd Idea of What He Was
Doing, After All.

John Arthur is a pupil in a Jeffer-
sonville departmental school, and had
to write an essay on Woodrow Wilson,
among others. He evinced such a high
regard for the president. especially in
his management of the world war,
as to express the view that he was
even greater than Washington or Lin
coin. He said they made a fine show
ing in the little wars they had to ham
die. but could hardly. he thought, have
got through the big one. His father,
seeing the essay. ventured the opin-
ion that the writer was too positive
In his statement. although admiring
Wilson himself. John Arthur showed
he was perhaps something Of a dip
lomat as well as an essayist.
"Oh. WELL" he remarked. "the teach
er is Democrat, anyhow."-Indian-
