ARMORY IS REVIVED
Guard Officers Seek Support
of Weeks-Hope for Presi-

Efforts have been revived here to have
federal officials and Congress look kind
ly on the request of the National Guard
Of the District Of Columbia and civic
organizations for an armory in which to
house the troops the District is supposed
to have under the Army organization.
Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan, commanding
the District of Columbia militia and
the goth National Guard Division. COM
land and Virginia, accompanied by Col.
Lloyd NJ. Brett. adjutant general, and
Capt. hewitt assistant adjutant, have
;; visited Secretary Of War Weeks in an
effort to enlist his support in getting
funds from Congress at this session with
which to start the armory.
President Seen as Opposed.
President Coolidge recently was
said not to look with favor on this cX-
penditure, as there would be no public
buildings bill. However it was point
i ed out to Secretary Weeks that this
would not come within the scope of
such Il bill. but would be a separate
, , measure. The funds would not be pro-
yfded exclusively by the federal gov
ernment, but the measure proposed
would provide for its erection under
the provisions Of the 60-40 fiscal ar
rangement existing between the Dis
I trict and the federal government. 1t

The True Story of

of golfers, "is like q horses. / can
see straight out with it. but not side
ways. As a result / cannot take a
full swing because my nose gets in
the way and cuts off my view Of the
ball. That Is the reason l use a
short swing"
The day after election in 1916 the
President and DR.. Grayson were play
ing No. Is when they passed other
players going down to No. 1.
How is your game today. Mr..
President?" one Of the players called.
Mr.. Wilson waved his hand and
called back, "Grayson has me 5
down. But I don't care, I am four
states up on yesterdays election"
Although the Virginia course which
he played was a hard one, he made 1t
in the nfneties, sometimes getting as
low as ninety-two.
Golf Improved Health.
Mr.. Wilson really never took up
golf seriously until after he entered
public life. There is no doubt that the
watchful attention given him at the
White House. the insistence on recre-
alton every day, had much to do with
the prolongation of his life. From a
frall individual who never seemed in
good health while at Princeton, the
same man began to glow with the
vigor of health after he reached the
White House.
| Mr.. Wilson used to say that he
needed eight hours sleep, but re-
quired nine. He was one of the few
persons who could fall fast asleep
sitting in the front seat of an auto
! mobile or in a Pullman chair. He
dislilked fee water, and always had
difficulty getting what he wanted
when he ordered cooled water. He
did not take cream in his coffee. He
drank moderately. Some of the news
paper men who accompanied him on
! the naval yacht Sylph down the Poto-
mac to Alexandria on Washington's
birthday, just after Secretary Daniels
had made the Navy dry" remember
his discontinue when he discovered
that the dry order was being liter
ally obeycd and that nobody on board
had a stimulant. Mr.. Wilson felt in
need of it, as he had been suffering
from a cold for several days and the
icy blasts sweeping across the river
did not make him feel any better.
What Mr.. Wilson thought or said
about the dry" order that day was
not made public.

CHAPTER VIII.
Why VOHdyow Wilson Never Invited
Members of Congress to Dine at the
White HOHsc.


Members of Congress to Dine at the
White IIOusc.
In the entire eight years of the
Wilson regime not a single individual
was ever invited to the White House
to luncheon o, dinner for the purpose
OF exc cising political influence
upon him This was true both as to
NJ. Wilson and every member of his
faml y. Few people in official and
political life were there at all en-
famille. Thi. is hard to realize, but
II is true. There were scores of cases
when an invitation to a senator or
representative or to the wives Of
members of Congress for family
dinner az the White House might
have g.i. ed for NJ. Wilson the sup
port OF etn:n influential leaders.
I;u: he ehel.td at the thought of
using tho White House table to ad-
Nan.,e HIS political fortunes.
ON two counts he once saId 10
friend, Il will not permit my home
to he used for political purposes. O..e
IL that if l make an intimate Of q
man in politics it isn't long before
fc wants ME TO 90 something WHICH
7 ought not to do. The other is that

luncheon, he goes back to the Senate
and casually remarks i'll the cloak
rooms, where the senators sit around
mrking and talking: The President
I'D to me at luncheon at the White
House today and SO on.
Here in Washington there is such n
r"aving to get close to the presi-
G2ncy---ls If there was something
ru;.lly important about it that would
rub oF-that many cannot resist the
icclination to brag and boast that
they are in the Presidents confidence.
This not only may hurt some good
friend and supporter who has not
I'@cu to the White House for lunch
con. but in time it may destroy the
effectiveness of others who had been

jealous and refuse to work with him.
His leadership, if he has any, is likely
T.: be destroyed. All of this simply
means that 4 President must isolate
himself during his term of office"

other players he encountered on the

would ask him to play through, but
he would not take advantage of the
offer extended him because he was
President Of the United States. AS
n result members of the club would
pretend to lose & ball which, Of
course. gave him the right to play
through. He invariably made some
pleasant remark about the game, the
weather or the incident of the play

Women Train as Bankers
 In China to Run Own Bank

Picking, Aug. 15.--Thirty girl stu dents have graduated from school of banking" established in Picking two years ago, and will be appointed to posts as clerks and officers in the Peking Women's Commercial and Say ings Bank, says the Asiatic News Agency.
 The banking school was established by Mrs. Woo who was impressed by the success attending efforts by Chi nese women in Shanghai to found a bank. The Picking women's bank is still in embryo, but it is proposed to start it with s1.o00,00O and to be ready for business next spring.
 In an address to the graduates Mrs. Woo stressed the point that Chinese women should interest themselves in business in order that they may not lag behind their western sisters. By cultivating an earning capacity, she said, educated girls may not be forced by their parents against their will.
 Mrs. Hsiung Hso-lin, wife of eX-pre- mier Hsiung, is said to be patroness of the new banking enterprise.
