ways, ever when the political
sky seemed darkest. Woodrow
Wilson chung with unquenchable
hope to the conviction his prin-
ciples would triumph In the end.
This was the n theme of each
of the few brief speeches which
he made at his S st. home after
his retirement from the White
House.
On Armistice day, 1922, he said:
America has always stood for
justice and always will stand for
it. The puny persons that Ire
now standing in the way will
presently find that their weak
ness is no longer to stand against
the strength of providence"
And in his last public utter
ance, his Armistlce day remarks
of Nov. II. 1923, he reiterated
this thought with flaming zeal:
II am not n Of those that
have the least anxiety about the
triumphs Of the principles I have
stood for. l have e fools re-
sist providence before, and 1
have seen their utter destruction,
as wip come upon these again

Sidelights on Wilson Funeral
BIZ United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 6-The Chicago board of aldermen,
numbering nineteen, headed by Alderman George Maypole, called
at the Wilson home shortly before the funeral.
Four Army trucks began moving the floral tributes from the
house to the Cathedral some time before the services. All day
long additional wreaths and floral pieces from individuals arrived
at the home, where there was no longer any room for them. They
were sent to the Cathedral directly.
Police issued orders that no automobiles should fall into line
behind the funeral cortege. To prevent violation of this order, they
kept all taxicabs and private cars away from the block in which
the Wilson home stands.
Soldiers at Fort Myer, across the river in Virginia, were
disappointed because they were not permitted to ride as a cavalry
escort in the funeral procession. Many of them obtained leave
and stood in the rain.
hundreos or children, many carrying American flags, were
among the crowd that lined the route to the Cathedral.
One OF the last letters Mr.. Wilson wrote was read at a meet
ing of the Lee Highway Association. 1t praised Lee for doing all
he could to heal the wounds which were made by the bitter civil
strife in which he was obliged to take part.
