PRESIDENTIAL LUCK

That whether Presidents are esteemed
successes or failures is largely matter Of
luck or circumstance is illustrated by re-
cent article by former Congressman Col
lier Of Mississippi, now member of the
Tariff Commission.
Mr.. Collier entered Congress with the
advent of the Taft administration In 1909.
Being Southern Democrat, he was not es-
pecially enthusiastic about President Taft,
but he has the candor to say good word
for that distinguished but unfortunate ex-
ecutive. He says:
Few of our presidents by training,
environment and experience were better
equipped for chief magistrate than Taft.
He had been secretary of war, governor of
the Philippines and Federal judge. The
failure of his administration was brought
about through no fault of President Taft.
circumstances too powerful for any one
man to circumvent. Unfortunately, it be-
gan at a time when the country was still
suffering from the panic of 1907
Different circumstances attend the
administration of the late President Cool
idge, who was privileged to serve during
a period of unusual prosperity, and who
enjoyed unusual popularity as a result.
But President Hoover came into office just
as the boom balloon was about to burst,
and he was blamed for the depression which
neither he nor any other executive on
earth couId hava Y1ynvonfod
Now President Roosevelt has taken of
flee with economic conditions at the lowest
ebb in many years. If these conditions
improve greatly during his administration,
as everyone hopes and believes they will,
he will be hailed as a great president. If
his policies do not work out well, he will
be condemned by the public and his adj
ministration will be considered failure
1t is great honor to be President Of
the United States at any time but it is in
finitely more comfortable to be president
when the country is prosperous.

BRIDGE FIEND TEST

Considering the great spread of the
bridge-playing industry, it is strange that
none of our legislators has had any laws
passed for its regulation. Now comes a
suggestion that players be compelled to
pass an examination before being licensed
to indulge in the game.
The suggestion comes, not from a
United States senator, but from an editor,
whose zeal for the public welfare has been
aroused by report from Kansas City,
where wife shot her husband The vic
tim was also the lady's bridge partner, it
appears, and when he bid one spade and
anoher player plunged on different suit
the wife raised to four spades The hus-
band was set, blamed the wife for reckless
bidding, and as a result of the argument
she shot him
Now, the aforesaid editor asserts, all
persons who aspire to play bridge should
be caused to pass rigid test, not with ref
erence to their skill. but to determine. their
mental poise. If the applicant is unable
to be set or to have an ace rumped without
showing undue emotion. a license should
be denied.
The trouble is that such a law, if en-
forced, would practically eliminate all who
take the game seriously.

STRAND THEATER

The most beautiful legs in Hol-
lywoed are displayed in one scene
of Second Hand Wife, the new
Fox picture directed by Hamilton
MacFadden. More than 500 pairs
were inspected by MacFadden and
his assistants before the final Sc
lections were made.
In the film lower extremities
are observed under 80 or more
desks in an office scene during
the early part of the picture. The
camera sweeps across the half
circle of symetrical limbs, here
and there married by comic pair.
A careful observer will note, how
ever, that there are no comic legs
III the front row.
Sally Eilers and Ralph Bellamy
portray the leading roles in the
picture which depicts the story of
wealthy business man who, neg
lected by his wife. falls in love
with his secretary. How the man
and the girl work out their prob
lem forms the basis of what is
said to be one of the most dramat-
ic and entertaining stories yet to
reach the screen.
Second Hand Wife" is an
adaptation of Kathleen Norris lat
est novel and MacFadden not only
directed the picture but prepared
the story for the screen.
Supporting Miss Eilers and Bel
lamy is cast that includes Helen
Vinson. Victor Jory, Dorothy
Christy. Karol Kay. Esther Ho-
ward, Effie Ellsler. Clay Clement
and Nella Walker.

NAMING A WAR

Although it is 6S years since Lee sur
rendered to Grant at Appomotatox. no
name for the war which that historic event
terminated has been proposed upon which
all Americans can agree.
The term Civil War which is most
generously used, is not liked by certain ele-
ments in the South. as is pointed out by the
Columbia State. while WAR of Secession
and War of the Rebellion" are entirely OBJ
noxious to the people of Dixie.
For many years the United Daughters
of the Confederacy have sponsored the
term WAR Between the States, but have
made little Roadway in securing its adop-
ton by writers or speakers. The term is
criticized as being unwieldy. indeseriptive
and ungrammatical.
Whatever objections may be made by
individuals or groups. il now seems that
the tragic struggle of the sixties will be
generally known to history as the Civil
War. short name unmistakable in Its
meaning and implying no reflection on
either North or South
Anyway, tine name i not especially
important. A war BY any name is just as
horrible.

reason that we are all like one family and
