During President Wilson's two terms of office there was world upheaval such as had never before witnessed since the dawn of time Empires crumbled and thrones collapsed. The map of Europe was torn to shreds. China that aeons old monarchy, had already become Republic and with the ending of the world war Russian autocracy had been humbled in the dust. German militarism crushed, Austria-Hungary disembered and Tur- key driven out of the Holy Land.
 Born in Staunton, Virginia, Decem- Der 18th, 1856 of Scotch-Irish parent age, and christened Thomas Woodrow Wilson the future President was known as Tommy until he graduat- ed from Princeton in 1879 and was thereafter known only as Woodrow Wilson. His father, the Rev. Joseph huggles Wilson, prominent Presby- terian minister, moved to Augusta Georgia, when Woodrow was two years old. Later the family went to Columbia South Carolina and there young Wilson, at the age of 17. entcr. ed Davidson College, leaving soon to go to Princeton. Upon graduatine he studied law in the University ot Virginia and in 1882 began the nrac. tlce of law in Atlanta, Georgta

It won recognition both ir the United States and abroad and is believed to have been influential in evoking offers of professorships from Bryn Mawr and Wesleyan University He married Miss AXsen on June 27th, 1885.
 He became successively, professor of history and political economy at Bryn Mawr and at Wesleyan Uniyer. sity and later professor of jurisprud- ence and political economy at Prince ton where, subsequently, he was made head of that institution Meanwhile Professor Wilson had gained high re putation as writer. Some of his works, with the date of their produc ton, were as follows: "The State-Ele ments of Historical and Practical Pol itics," GSS9); Division of Reunion,' , GS93); George Washington QS96) "A history of the American People, Q902); Constitutional Government in the United States" Q9O8); Free Life," G913); "The New Freedom, Q913); When Man Comes to Him self," 1915); "On Being Human, Q916).

Woodrow Wilson, the 18th presi- dent of the United States was born in Staunton, Virginia, in 1856, a son of Rev. Joseph R., and Jesse Woodrow Wilson, of Scotch-Irish ancestry on both sides. He was one of the few men who by the progress of events are called upon to exert great influence on the affairs of the whole world It was under his leadership that the Uni ted States abandoned it's policy ot 1so Iation. became an active participant in European affairs, and, establishing itself as a great military power, end ed the deadlock between the Allies and the Central Powers, bringing Ger many to defeat.
 Howovyl history may assess tnls nd tional metamorphosis, it must record the facts that the years when MT Wilson was president marked radl cal diversion from the path of the Ia thers.
 The first Democrat since Andrew Jackson to serve two consecutive terms as President, Woodrow WIT sons career in office resembleo IL some respects that of his llIusrlou' nredecessor. Jackson was a rough self-willed, soldier. Wilson was ln'el 1pctual "a polished schooImaslel' Roth achieved their ends, the one O' eo,.oo tho other bv grace and SuaVlty With the possible exception or lheo dore Roosevelt, Wilson was al the same time the most idolized and the most bitterly assailed President since Abraham Lincoln.
 No other President, certainly, ever took such a part in world allalrS' lo other President ever exercised such an influence upon thrones and cabl nets, upon Kings and Premiers. He began smashing precedents almost immediately upon his induction into office by delivering his addresses ir person to Congress and finished by going to Europe to attend the peace conference What he accomplished there will remain for posterity to ap praise.
 Three epochal periods characterized Woodrow Wilson's entrance into pub lie life Elected president of Prince ton University, in 1902, the country al that time obtained it's first glimpse ot him as National figure. This was accentuated by what has been called his fight for the characterization" o the University in which student cliQues were abolished and the sons o rich and poor men were encouraged to fraternalize. Eight years later, ir 1910, he was elected Governor of New Jersey.
 Governor Wilson's administration was notable chiefly for his advocacy of progressive legislation. Politica opponents charged him with radical ism. "The Seven Sisters" laws a SC ries of seven bills drafted at his rec ommendation, were passed after leg islative contest. They forbade the in corporation of predatory trusts with in the commonwealth, New Jerse. previously having been used as a ren dez-vous for National monopolists.
 The nomination of Governor Vii son to the Presidency by the Nationa Democratic Convention in June 1912 at Baltimore, after long deadlock was one of the most dramatic epi sodes in American political history No less interesting was his electiol to the chief magistrate of the natio1 the following November when he re ceived 435 votes in the Electorial Col lege to 38 for Colonel Roosevelt an 8 for MT. Taft, who was renominate' by the republican party to success himself.

Rock Greek Parkway.

Another step is being made in the
creation of the Rock Creek parkway
which is to extend along both sides
of Rock Creek from the Zoo to Po-
tomac Park. The parkway will make
it possible for one to drive through,
and Potomac Park without passing
through a street. This parkway was
proposed many years ago, not only
for the purpose of uniting the Zoo
and two major parks. but to reclaim
the lower valley of Rock Creek from
it's unsightly state and give direct
benefit to the sections of Washington
adjacent to the creek.
A good many years ago the sur
veyors laid out on each side of the
creek from it's mouth to the Zoo
boundary which they called 'line
of condemnation" These lines roughly
parallel the creek at a distance of
half a block to block from it.
From time to time as money could
be used for the purpose pieces of land
within the lines of condemnation have
been bought, and not long ago a con-
siderable tract Of land on the north
and west sides of the creek between

was bought. At P street and 23d, or

Brother RrYan's Logic.

Brother Bryan-for 80 William j.

suish him from his at present more
distinguished kinsman. Charles W
is maneuvering himself out OF diff
Guilty with much of his oidtime skill.
He is setting himself straight on the
subject of Candidate Davis. whom he
denounced at the convention. before
the nomination. as one unworthy Cf
the Democracy's choice as standard
b aarer. He said some rather harsh
things then. He said, for example.
that SO intimately was Mr.. Davis con-
nected with Wall street and its evil in
huences that he could not possibly
carry single western state if nom
mated. and he clinched the effective
ness of this contention, from his view
point. by adding that probably no
Democrat could be expected to carry
single eastern state. The battle
being in the west. to get enough cleo
toral votes to carry the electoral col
lege with the aid of the assured south
ern states, the nomination Of Davis
would be a suicidal mistake.
Now Mr.. Bryan. Brother Bryan. is
explaining that he had no personal
feeling whatever against Mr. Davis,
entertaining for him profound re-
spect. His objection was that the pro-
fessional connections of the West Vir-
ginian were d handicap. raising an ad
verse presumption such as that raised
by circumstantial evidence. But that
presumption. that circumstantial evil
dence. can be overthrown by a single
fact. and Brother Bryan expects Mr..
Davis to furnish that overthrowing
fact by his speeches. So Brother Bryan
will heartily support the ticket. not
withstanding what he said in the heat
of the REORGANIZATION fight.
A not unreasonable query arises:
Would Brother Bryan have been able
to spin this fine web of discriminate ton
il Brother Charles had not been named
on the ticket? Sometimes ones logic
is powerfully stimulated by personal

The Lapse From the Lead.

Well it was a grand and glorious
feeling, if only for short time. TO
stand at the head of the American
League for fifteen days in midseason
was something Washington had never
before experienced, and although that
.proud position was lost yesterday. the
faithful fans of the Capital have
reason to be grateful for the thrill.
The lead has been lost-temporarily,
. il is to be hoped-by a series of what
are known in base ball as bad breaks.
That phrase covers bad pitching. bad
or rather ineffective batting and loose
fielding. But teams often win with all
three of these adverse factors. They
get the breaks at critical moments,
yielding them runs when runs are not
strictly earned. And it is the break in

past few days the local team has been

World Flyers Reach Europe.

Arrival of the American globe flyers
at Constantinople brings that great
adventure a step nearer completion.
for the airmen are now out of Asia,
which has presented some of the
greatest difficulties of the entire route.
They have covered 16.445 miles in an
elapsed time of lis days. Their actual
flying time from departure at San
Diego to their arrival at CONSTANT
nople has been estimated at 220 hours,
which is average of a little less than
seventy-five miles an hour. The flight
from BaSdad to Constantinople was
one Of the longest accomplished on
any one day. covering ,065 miles.
The American airmen have now
1856 miles to go to circle the globe.
They will proceed from ,Constantinople

Women in Practical Politics.


Warm praise has been bestowed
upon the women who attended the Two
great political conventions. al Cleve-
dand and at New York. for their intel
Hgent, cooperative activity in the
work of selecting candidates. AT New
York, particularly. their taok was diff
cult and it may well be said that the
Democratic women passed through
trying ordeal with exceptional success.
When the nineteenth amendment
was pending before the state legisla-
lures many of the male politicians ex-
pressed frankly their fear that admis-
sion of the women to the active politi-
cal work would seriously disarrange
affairs and cause complica tions. But
that fear has proved groundless. In
the primary work, in the committee
work and in the conventions the newly
enfranchised women have shown their
capacity to deal with large questions
in a broad manner, and TO judge as 10
candidates with Discrimination as keen
as that of the men.
1t cannot be said that the deadlock
at New York was attributable in any
Cegree TO the presence of a large mum

that possibly if the women had been in
