Nations Executive Condemns
as Prussian Platform Methods
of Republicans.
INTERVIEW MADE PUBLIC
Abiding Confidence In Demo-
cratic Convention San Fran
cisco Is Expressed.

New York, June 17.-President Will
son, in a. special interview given the
New York World to be published to-
morrow morning. said he is extreme
ly confident that the democratic con-
vention at San Francisco will well
come acceptance by the republican
party to make the League of Nations
the issue in this campaign"
81 am even more confident the
president said. that such referendum
will confirm my faith that the Amer
lean people desire it above anything
else thai a political party now may
provide, and that they will condemn
the republican policy of denying them
consummation of their hopes No
one will recommend referendum on
that issue more than II
Il suppose ] should feel flattered,
he said, over being made the issue
of the presidential campaign by the
republican party. But even the eff
forts of platform makers at Chicago
to confer distinction of being not only
the burning but living issue by cam
oflaging, and obscuring the real is
sues will not deceive the people"
Processes by which the Chicago
platform was accomplished seemed
to me to have been essentially and
scientifically Prussian in inspiration
and method
Instead of quoting Washington
and Lincoln, the republican platform
should have quoted Bismarck and
Bernhardi, because the republican at
titude regarding the supreme issue
that cannot be abandoned or disre-
garded strongly suggests arbitrary
influences that dictated the doctrines
of those two eminent persons"
Every charge directed against me,
and my administration is obviously
designed to becloud and negative the
paramount issue confronting the peo-
pie OF America, TO befog their sense
of responsibility and make violation
of the obligations they assumed to
be 70 small consequence. I sincerely
believe the attempt of the republican
party to win sanction of the Amer
can people for its attempted evasion
of these obligations will be decisively
rebuked."
The president added that whatever
else the democratic national conven-
tion may do he hoped it would SAY
just what it means on every issue and
evasion in doing so.''

A BIG BOUQUET OF WILD FLOWERS

Dear Social Corner Sisters: want to tell you about auonher wonderful bouquet of wild flowers received last week. It is similar to the one I received last sum nler from Social Corner Sister Ma She sent them both to me. It is very 5eauti- ful and so artistically arranged and means a lot of patience in gathering such quantity. It measures one and one half yards in circumference and thirty inches in height. I think every wild flower that grows in this vicinity is rep resented in il. tsis certainly 8 wonder. It has been here four days and looks just as fresh as when it came, not one is wilted or fallen off which shows it is being well cared for. She does not make them up herhelf. A friend from Spring field, Mass, who spends a. few days there puts them up He certainly has great taste in arranging. flowers. Very few florists could compete with him. It will last several days and is placed on ex- hibition in the reception room. wish the Sisters if they come into town would drop in at 29 Masonic street, New Lon don, and see it. It is ready on exfibi- 'tion of art. Remember New London is the place 10 see the great flower show.

Although the morning was a little threatening there was nothing at midday and afternoon to prevent the members of Club No. f and their friends from having a jolly good time With Saturday Eve. Twice Twenty, Primrose and keiiah Dooliltle as hostessest the guests from the other clubs were sure of plenty of attention and courteous service. Although the number of guests was not as large as expected there was good sized repre- sentation from the other clubs and a good social time was enjoyed. If nothing happens to prevent I would like to have the Social Corner friends, both sisters and brothers, meet with me on Thursday, the 18th of July. If it should be stormy on that day. come the next day You are invited to have basket picnic as in the years past. Coffee and tea will be serv- ed. Please bring cups with you With good wishes for a pleasant day and large number from all of the clubs of the Corner and their friends, and hop- ing the Social Corner editor will favor us with his presence on tbat day so that we may all make his personal acquaint- ance.

the bird family as favorite for doues- tic pets. This writer, who magnssed all of a cats failinGs, finished up the argu- ment by declaring that .eyery filthy wo- man keeps a cat That was the limit. to me, for I think the majority of women who keep cats in the home, are of the class of refinement Personally. l enjoy a cat around the house not one, but two. I consider cat clean animal, if prop erIy trained and taught as they should be. They are mostly affectionate, if treated half way right They like to be with us and show 8 desire for compan- ionship. I feel ssorry to see some cats. especially kittens, so ill-treated, or abused by children, who are old enough to know better. How cruel it is to see cat or dog get kick or stones thrown at them? My plea is to be kind to all dumb animals, and especially those we are the most associated with. If it be the cat, treat her as one of the family, as far as her place allows. 1 was re minded by what one of the Social Corner writers said recently-"What do you think of a person who says they Go not like to read books? I would suggest they belong to the small class who do not like animals, or little children. They are members of the queer set" True, we cannot all agree on the same line, but Ii we live as nature intended, We must reach beyond self.
 Best wishes to all. and their pussy cats"
