Wilson for tive hours on the occa- sion of the latter's first public appear ance at the theatre, where John Drinkwater's play, Abraham Lin coln," was produced. Rarely have I witnessed so great a change in man in two short years, tor so wonderful a play.) When the President came back from Paris for few days dur ing the progress of the Peace Confer |ence, he headed parade down Penn sylvania Avenue, and his whole ap- pearance was that of man in splen- did health and good fighting trim. On great many occasions when he was seen in public in Washington during recent years the comment was always on his youthful and vigorous appearance. But the other night when he sat in full view of Washington audience for the first time in sixteen
 months, he looked like a broken man. Doubtless both he and Mrs. Wilson were very agreeably surprised when upon their appearance in the theatre. the audience rose and broke forth in spontaneous cheering. The faces of
 both the President and Mrs. Wilson showed their great pleasure at the
 enthusiastically friendly reception; the President, who had become seated oroco bao,,s1xy f,.or, b;c oho;, and waved his right arm in friendly re- sponse. His left arm apparently hung quite useless at his side, and his man. ner indicated that the whole left side of his body from the shoulder down, was in state of at least partial wsa in state of at least partial paralysis. All of Woodrow Wilson's pictures show him quite full head of hair, but the crown of his head is now quite bald
 The features of the President are rather drawn, but when he arose 10 accept the greetings of his country men, the old Wilson smile" was quite uncnanged.
 Secretary Humility, in his pre-elec- tion speech, described his Chief as man who had grown old'' in two years. That was brief but perfect description. Apparently the bulletins given out at the White House during the days of the illness of the Presi-
 
 dent failed to tell even the half truth concerning the serious condition of the Chief Executive.
 Mir. Wilson will occupy his new res idence in Washington after March 4, and it is given out that he expects to become almost a recluse for per iod of at least six months. From all appearances he is on the slow road to recovery But it is clear beyond all question, that his days of leadership are over.

Spending The Taxpayers Money

The next time the "pork barrel'' cry reaches your ears, just remind the critic that in chart recently pre- pared by the Bureau of Standards that is is proved that during the last nine years, exclusive of war costs, all of the civil activities of the Govern ment represent less than one-third of the total expenditures. A speaker at an-event where Government expen- ditures was discussed few nights ago, produced dollar bill. He cut it almost in the middle-40 per cent to be exact, and held up the piece to rep resent the proportion of each taxpay- er's dollar required for the Army, Navy, and for pensions and care of

 War Words

The War has brought out lot of words that have been popular for a
 few weeks. "Normalcy" has been coined by the President-elect, and it is
 the latest" Since it is in only few of the dictionaries, it is late enough
 in more ways than one. A mathe-
 nautical dictionary says normalcy re-
 iates to "the co-ordinates of the point of contact" Possibly it is non-re- sembling kin to "camouf1age..
 The investigations of the War have demonstrated the former ascendancy of .camoufiage,' and now that "nor- malcy' is in high favor in official cir cles at Washington, all will wish for it a success at least equal to that of it's less deserving kinsmen in the fam lily of forceful words.
 "Normalcy'', according to employ CTS, seem to mean lower wages. Man ufacturers figure that it means con- tinued high prices, retailers interpret it to imply big prfiots, and the con- sumers think it means that things will be cheaper.
 In the language of brass tacks nor
 malcy" means the return of confi- dence based upon courage. It has something to do with meeting the de- mand for a billion dollars worth of new homes and houses by building them; and to put another billion dol lars worth of electric railways, gas pipes, telephones and light wires, sewers, and other public utility inn
 provements in operation to make pos sible decent living in decent establish ments, "far from the madding crowd'' since living, according to conditions of normalcy" is among civilization's
 most urgent demands.
 In the soft speech of politics in Washington, where this article is written, it means intelligent use of the cheese-knife in slashing appro- priations as they have never been slashed before; because ''normalcy' must do lot of subtracting on the tax bill to prove itself in successful operation in Federal and State admin istration of the public's affairs. Henry Ford says that linen who were laid off during the shutting down on industry are taking off their silk shirts and are drifting back to the farms" Henry occasionally pulls a good one, and if he is right in this in- stance. it is another victory for "nor- |malcy,n We all tip our aqua glasses |to Senator Hardiig's new word, s .
