AWE OF WHITE HOUSE

Patriotism unobscured by partisan
bias or personal interest in the opin-
ion OF the Philadelphia Public Ledger
an Independent newspaper, would
have prompted Democratic Senator,
to repudiate President Wilson's lead
ership and align themselves with their
Republican colleagues in ratifying
with necessary reservations. the Lea
que of Nations covenant.
1t was the patriotic thing to do, OBJ
viously. But courage lacking to dc
that patriotic thing, obviously.
Awe of the White House explains
this lack OF courage.
1t is and for months has been an
open secret that these Democrat,
senators, sufficient number of them
to make up the necessary two-thitds
vote to ratify safe guarded treaty
were unalterably opposed to the GOV

MARY pICKFORD.

1t is said OF movie celebrities as vel
as politicians that critical publicity is
preferable to no publicity. We doubt
however, If Mary Pickford, the most
advertised OF all movie actresses, rel
ishcs the rays of light now envelop
ing her.
10 have been granted a divorce and
to remarry almost before the ink on
the. document OF separation is dry is
bad enough but to have obtained a
divorce under circumstances which
have prompted an investigation Is
worse. II is understood that steps
may be taken to annul the divorce de-
cree.
Briefly the situation is this: Mrs.
Owen Moore MARY Pickford) was
granted divorce in Nevada Two
weeks later she married Douglas
Fairbanks, who also recently obtainc /
q divorce. According to the best in
formation obtainable, Mrs. Owen
Moore resided in Nevada about three
weeks before the decree was granted.
State law now requires a years resi-
dence. She was granted a decree
when. in actually. the court was not
even aware Of her true identity. It
has been said that because Of the
shabby clothes she wore, the presid-
ing judge even cnquired if she did no,
care to- ask for alimony.
Perhaps similar circumstance e.
surround numerous other divorce
cases. But the fact that Mary Pick
ford has a world wide audience who
almost worships her lends this par
ticular case an especially unsavory
taste. Newspapers will "play up" ev .
cry feature Of the investigation, des
siminating through the length of the
land story that will react in mil
lions of Americans. Instances like
this one make the most liberal mind
cd cry out against the prevalent
practice Of lightly disregarding mar

PRESIDENT WILSON.

Recent snapshots Of Presiden,
Woodrow Wilson, reproduced in
newspapers and magazines, have
served to bring home more forcibly
than physicians statements or poll
ticians fears that the chief executive
| of the United States is far from a vel
man. His face is haggard ,shrunke i
and obviously palid The well known
facial features portraying forcefu
character lack their old distinctness
Serious question has been recently
raised regarding. Mr.. Wilson's sanity
No one believes that Mr. Wilson has
lost all his tradionally able mental
faculties; recent sotes to foreign ma
tons belle any such possibility OF
his possible affliction with paranoia,
however many medical men are
agreed
Perhaps no president OF the United
States will leave the White House
with more universal criticism since
the administration of James Buchana ,
than. will Woodrow Wilson. From
heights which not so long ago looked
down upon worshipping world,
President Wilson has seen his pres
tage and popularity wane until today
he stands, almost like a tiger at bay,
facing an antagonism that has spread
until it penetrates not only America,
but France, Italy Greece and some
South American countries. Demo-
cratic senator's have asserted upon the
floor Of the senate but that for loyalty
to. his wish and will would have al
most unanimously voted with Repub
licans for adoption of the league COW
enant with Lodge reservations.
Recent acts by Mr.. Wilson partic-
ularly the curt and 1ncalled for dis
missal of Robert Lansing, have lent
color TO the belief that Mr., Wilson is
SO saturated with the sense of self
sufficiency as to approach being a
paranoiac; that is. person of such
exaggerated ego as to be classed with
those mildly unbalanced mentally.
1t may not be true. Loyal Ameri-
cans persevere in the hope that it is
not. But if it is, nothing can prevent
Mr. Wilson attempting once more to

was the origin OF the first Rebecca,
a name which seems to have been
coined especially TO be bestowed
upon the wife of Isaac, Of Biblical
fame.
The Rebeccas Of the world should
make excellent wives, since the
word Ribka, a later rendition Of
rabak, which means a cord with
moose, is given to convey the firm
ness of the marriage bond. The
Septuagint and the Latin both give
evidence of the name Rebecca IN
very early times. Another version,
said 10 be the authorized one, makes
her Rebekah. This latter form
seems to be the one affected today
by every young miss who Is called
