The average pay of midlnettes, many ©f whom carry their lunches In small compact leather is microscopi cally small, judged by American standards. But many of the gilds find lunch boxes am inconvenience and in answar to their need “I/Oeuvre Diocesaine” hsj been inaugurated The glrla can have soup, hors d’oeuvre. a meat course, vegetables, dessert aci’ wine for about S cents. They can or der leas if they like, and if they do not wish to spend so small an amount, or cannot afford to do so, they may bring their own food and make vase of the kitchen. The New Man It is true that man is gradually be tog forced t© take up the domestic arts, affirms the Wilmington Every Evening. It blames It all on women’s efforts to enter the masculine realm. "He is forced te attend to the babies,** says the paper, “wash dishes and ‘dust the living room’ —and, if needs be. wear a gingham aprou—while madam Is playing bridge or attending a lec ture on the subject of ‘Wives and Mothers.’ The natural consequence Is that tbe poor man, saturated by an atmosphere of domesticity, takes on an effeminate air before he realizes it. Ee finds himself walking in a woman ish manner and answering the door bell with a toss of the head and a gesture of the hands that reminds one #f Maud Mulier.” Helping South America’s Poor An American corporation —Cerro de Pasco —one of the largest copper pro ducing concerns in the world, in an effort to help Peru better the living conditions of her poor, Is importing fifteen pedigreed Hereford and Angus bulls from Colorado. They are to be crossed with the range cattle here in the hope of stimulating milk produc tion. The low production of whole some milk in Peru and Chile is be lieved one reason for the high mor tality among children. The Cerro de Pasco, along with other American cor porations, is showing much humani tarian interest in the poor and Ig norant native workers, who have been exploited from time immemorial aad atill are by most native companies. Old Army General Orders Copies of two general orders, one promoting U. S.

WILSON AND HOUSE * (From the Chapel H«JI Weekly) The memoir of Colonel Ed - ward M. House, now running serially in the Greensboro News, is a narrative as absprbir.g as any I have ever read, its inter est is due in large pan to the fact that it is made up of records written by Colonel House from day to day, and of letters writ ten by and to him, duiim iU thrilling period when h< was-- to use Mr. Wilson’s own norcis- - “the other self” of \n-.dro.v Wilson. This chronicle for tides me i. the belief which 1 have lon- , held, namely, that Mr. Wiisoi could not have found a mon rust worthy counselor‘than in. Texan who, with all his camii liess and practical nature, wa yet an idealist. The decree *.■ which the President, so ofb ' charged with valuing no ad vie lit his own, gave his confident o this friend, leaned upon he'- er help iri the weightiest aifair mazes the reader in spue of . ’ hat has already been published about their intimate relations. A President of the United States can find without much difficulty men of great intelli gence whose motives are not a hove question; and he can find plenty of men with unquestion ably good motives whose intel? ligence is not of a high order. But to find one whose intelli gence and motives he trusts to the limit—and whose social qualities, moreover, are such as to make him a beloved compan ion—jithat is indeed almost un believable good fortune. Such a combination Woodrow Wilson found in Edward M. House. It is no wonder that he surrendered himself- unreservedly to the friendship. The House letters and diaries go far to discredit the tradition of the cold and unfeeling Wilson. Passage after passage shows Wilson as a man of strong af fections as well as strong dis likes, of powerful passions and prejudices. Both the advocates and the ad versaries of Wilson will find a bundant material in this memoir to support their present judg ments. This fact in itself is a high tribute to the value of the document. It is not an argu ment or an apologia. House is not trying to make out a case— he is simply giving a record of facts. Yet. in his prefatory note he does set down his own opinion of Wilson, in this summary form: “In my opinion it ill serves so great a man as Woodrow Wilsoh for his friends, in mistaken zeal, o claim for him impeccability. He had his shortcomings, even as other men, and having them but gives him the more charac ter. As I saw him at the time, and as I see him in retrospect, his chief defect was tempera mental. His prejudices were strong and oftentimes clouded his judgments. But, by and large, he was what the head of a state should be—intelligent, honest, and courageous. Happy the nation fortunate enough to have a Woodrow Wilson to lead ’t through dark and tempestuous days!” There is considerable humor m the narrative. During the 1212 campaign William G. McA doo and William F. McCombs were baggers’ points.

F to prominent persons they decided oc “Damon** and i “Pythias” for McAdoo and. Mc- Combs. One story, which came ou: r ; a few years ago, is repeated J It is worth re-telling. One c! r Wilson’s friends asked him if hv ; j didn’t think Senator So-and-sc. j was about the most selfish man •in America. ‘Tm sorry,” Wil* j son replied, “but Fm already I committed to Senator Blank.” Many of the meetings of Wil { son and House passed without/ : a.uy discussion of governmem . j and politics. They told yarns f and talked about people anci nooks. The entry in House’s diary April 15, 1914, says: “1 asked whom he considered the greatest man in the early days oi the republic. He thought Alex ander Hamilton was easily the ablest.” This reflects Wilson’s capacity for a detached, dispas sionate judgment. For, certain ly, in his sympathies and politi cal philosophy he was far more of a Jeffersonian than a Hamil tonian. If, as House says, * 4c 4= Apropos of the House, Hous ton and Bryan narratives now appearing in the newspapers, the New York World says: “These new reminiscences are evidence of how much more quickly than before we accumu late material upon our salient figures. We now have books by five of Wilson’s cabinet—Lan sing, Daniels, Redfleld, Houstor and Bryan; we have the remin iscences of Tumulty; and ther< is in preparation such an addi tion of his letters and papers w Lincoln did not receive til 1804.” Then there are the Wal er Page letters, not mentioned in the World’s list. Abroad a like promptness of publication ii observed. Lloyd George ha* written his memoirs, and Lon Grey, and, I believe, Genera Maurice. And others, no doubt whom I do not here recall. ♦ * * Wilson liked to read poems a loud: “One night the Presided read poems to me for nearly ai hour. What he particularly liked was ‘A Fool’s Prayer’, by Sill, and ‘A Conservative/ by Gilman.” 4c 4c © November 22, 1915, House wrote in his diary: “One pecu liar phase of the President’. 1 character develops itself more fully fro mtime to time; that is. he dodges trouble. Let me pu' something up to him that is dis agreeable and I have great diffi culty in getting him to meet it.’” . . “Another phase of his charac ter is the intensity of his preju dices against people. He likes a few, and is very loyal to them, but'his prejudices are many and often unjust. He finds great dif ficulty in conferring with men against whom for some reason, he has a prejudice, and in whom re can find nothing good. ♦ 4t 4c The prejudice, or dislike, or characteristic, or whatever it may be called, recorded by House, which seems to me, of all of them, the most creditable to Wilson was his aversion to the social game which as President people expected him to play. Not the genuinely social meetings, that is, but the artificially social —the eternal receiving and en tertaining of persons with whom there was no slightest bit of congeniality but wha wanted to see him simply because of his office. I should think this part of a President’s life would drive him mad. MORTGAGESALE OfTa^l) Under and by authority of a mort gage deed executed to T. L.

Btatos paj r in toll to bacteria, in milk ? In proc ess of arriving at the answer to this question, representatives of lead ing milk and dairy products com panies of New York recently met with officials of th© State Agricul tural Experiment Station, with the Department of Farms and Markets and the College of Agriculture at the Experiment Station, Geneva. The bacterial count is being used more and more as & basto for de termining how much per pound a farmer is to be paid for his milk. Getting the bacterial count under a given figure means millions of dol lars annually to Uncle Sam’s dairy men. Dairymen* themselves, are alive to this question* and where the milk produced Is a material part of the income from tho farm, com plete sanitary preoautie** are being taken to insure a lew bacterial count in the milk.
