Wilson Avenues Still
Abound in French Towns
Mayor of One Village Shortens
Streets Name to s'President"
Because of Criticism
PARIS. Aug. II.


Travellers could pursue delightful
object in their summer peregrinations
across our provincial towns, writes lie
Masque de Fer in the Figaro. This
vacation game would consist in re-
viewing and counting all the streets,
all the avenues, all the boulevards, all
the crossways, which, from Lille to
Marseilles, bear the extraordinary
name Of President Wilson.
Indeed this quest should not, after
ALL be confined to the important CEN
tiers, to the large cities that assume
the triumphant air of capitals Humble
market towns, too, are adorned with
this name, spread in profusion in the
enthusiasm Of now defunct delirium.
We could cite number of such viii
lagos which make a show of their
municipal fountain with all the pride
we would put in welcoming the Dame
Of Carpeaux, whose fratricidal name
blazes on the corner of the Rue de la
ever great its prestige, has been paint
ed on such considerable number of
sign plates. President Wilson domi-
mates on the. walls even over the illus
trious leaders and heroes of the war
A certain small community, devoted
like the others to this besetting prece-
dent, has great observer for mayor
who made the following sagacious re-
marks:
"For three years we have had our
President Wilson Street. My municipal
council importuned me for it until, to
calm their impatience, I convoked one
evening special meeting. and the vote
was unanimous. Some time later some
Americans who had stopped here
asked me to show them the sights of
the village. at once led them to the
plate and said to them: 'Lo, here is
the best can show you!' Would you
believe it? Those Americans began to
laugh, as though I had told them a
joke. l thought they did not

replying: No, not ours! You may keep
| hina!' -.
| "The following year it was worse.
The tourists grew melancholy on dis
covering this name. heard them MUIR
muir: That poor man, though! Who
could ever foresee this?' One time a
traveler-who must have been a poll
tician--even got angry: You are be-
hind the times. -. Wilson, for
tunately, does not represent America!
| You are not up to date
Last year very old gentleman,
perceiving, as he thought, an error, ex-
| planned to me that Mr. David Wilson
had not been President, but only a
President Grevy's son-in-law. Some
asked me questions. Others up
braided me. Children bothered their
parents by begging them to tell them
the history Of this forgotten President.
Riotous gatherings formed. And there
were extraordinary gestures of the
kind we are wont to make when indi-
eating the vacuity of things ter
! restrial. Then I, without consulting
my board. took an energetic resolution.
Lookl"
In fact, at the end of the street
Wilson's name had been scratched so
that at this corner tho road was only
called Rua du President.

The Prince Of Wales

dent for this occurred in the union of
King Alfonso of Spain, who is
Catholic, with Princess Victoria of
Battenberg, daughter Of Prince Henry
Of Battenberg and the granddaughter
Of Queen Victoria of England.
A union between the royal families
of England and Italy would do much
to strengthen the bonds that exist be-
tween them as allies in the World
War, and, increasing the friendship
of the two peoples, would result in
more intimate economic, financial, in
dustrial and political relations between
them.
Some Groups Desire That
Prince Marry English Girl
There are groups among the po-
litical and social leaders of England,
however, who strongly desire that the
prince marry an English girl, and thus
strengthen the AngloSaxon strain in
the royal family. Others hope that he
will bring about greater solidity
throughout the empire by union with
representative of the overseas do
minions.

is visiting Cornwall, making his an
nual tour of his southwestern domains

keith, sister of the Earl Of Dalkeith, q
young nobleman who is close friend
of the King
Earl Dalkeith was at one time at
tached to the staff of the prince, and
the two young men were often to-
eether. In the course Of time Earl
Dalkeith became very attentive to
Princess Mary, sister of the Primes of
Wales. The prince, meanwhile, had
met Earl Dalkeith's sister, Lady Dali
keith, and the two danced and rode to-
gether until West End London began
to talk of double wedding when the
prince might marry the pretty peerless
and Earl Dalkeith wed Princess Mary.
Dalkeith, however, has since married
another and the Prince of Wales is still
unwed.
Princess Yolanda of Italy
Regarded as Probable Bride
To-day there is a strong probability
that the prince may marry Princess
Yolanda of Italy, idol of the Italian
people, and for whose hand many
young mobiles have aspired. She is
strikingly handsome, graceful and wit
ty, and won the love of both the Italian
and British troops by her work in the
war. She has been a leader in royal
society, and when President and Mrs
Wilson visited Rome welcomed them
with her parents.

DAUYLETTER
BOOST

It is an old story but I want to
add new lesson,
A man visited Chicago after it had
become a town of several thousand
inhabitants. and he marveled at its
growth.
q remember the time" he said,
when l could have bought the hull
swamp for a pair of old boots"
"Why didn't YOU buy it?" he was
asked.
His reply was, stranger, l hadn't
the boots"
That answer has been judged sat
isfactory and final. do not SO re
gard it.
1t was not a sufficient reason why
that man did not buy Chicago.
The man who was offered Chicago
for a pair of old boots, and failed to
buy it because he did not have the
boots, was a Ounce.
He lacked not boots alone, but
brains.
Some men would have gotten the
boots.
They would have pulled off the
boots they had on, and set traps for
muskrats along Chicago river till
they got a pair Of moccasins or have
gone barefoot till they earned enough
to make good the lack of boots. They
would have begged or borrowed or
stolen the boots.
A man who in that early day could
not see that great city was certain
to grow up at the end of Lake Michie
gan. carried his brains in his boots.
The man who has opportunity
within his grasp and let's it escape IS
usually fertile in excuses. He can
tell exactly why it was impossible
for him to succeed.
But the men who achieve success
in life are those who, in spite of all
the conditions that would make sue
cess impossible, get the boots.

OBSERVATIONS


The mermaids we see are not
demur maids.
Having dropped treating, America
straits treatying.
The female of the species is more
comfortable than the male.
No one appreciates the perils OF
motoring like the pedestrian.
The ex-kaiser's 100000 a year is
some income for an outcast.
Some want skirts back to pre-war
levels: others still have their eye
sight.
The saddest words of tongue or
pen, "When does school start up
again?"
There's fortune for a man who
can invent reverse gear for gas
meters.
Conpressmen want Dawes to save
money so they can spend it for some
thing else.
The trouble is, you can get man
out of the city, but you can't get the
city out of the man.
The eternal round of big approprl-
ations and big taxes forms a circle
that cannot be squared.
Women will admit their husbands
had better judgement than tsey dld
when it came to marrying.
The annau loss by fire is $780,
100000; and every fired man thinks
his employer lost that much.
When American hotels finish with
the Japanese ambassador the Japs
won't have enough money for a
navy.
Wisconsin women can wear pants.
THEY'LL have full equality when their
husbands can legally go Through their
pockets.
The small boys idea of heaven IS
a place where parades have nothing
but bands and go around and around
his block.
Will that glacier which once COW
cred the New England states please
report for duty in Americas tomor-
row?
