dent Wilson again today detined
h:s position on woman's suffrage

"I'm deeply impressed with
th? woman's suffrage question,"
t".e president wrote, "but I be
lie .e it can best be worked out
t't -.te by state rather than by
attempting to change the funda

a change would run too far and
too fast ahead of general public

If You Were Archie
Archie was an average Ameri
can boy. He went to school, en
joyed tops, kites, marbles, balls
and other things that other boys
like. In vacation days he work
ed when he could find "a job"
to help his widowed mother.
When he was in the second year
|of the high school he got sick.
Several physicians having failed
to find out just what was the
matter with him, an interested
friend one day took him to see a
celebrated physician. This phy
sician made the startling dis
covery that Archie had leprosy,
the most loathsome, the most
! malignant, the most hopeless of
! all diseases.
The laws of the State in which
he lived were very rigid regard
ing leprosy and so, without a
goodbye to his devoted mother
and to his friends, Archie was
rushed off to a lonely place called
"Leprosarium," provided by the
State for such case?!. Here he
will have to live the rest of his
life, shut out from family and
friends and the big throbbing
world in which he is so much
interested. It was doubtless
very lonely indeed for Ar
chie, especially at first, and he
watched the big ships sail by and
longed to have somebody to talk
to.
A few months after Archie j
was sent to this desolate place a
friend from "The Mission to
Lepers" went to see him. After
they had talked a while the little
fellow said, "The hardest of all
is not to be able to write to the
boys back home. I guess their
mothers wouldn't want them to
be getting letters from lepers.
But I wish I could tell them 1
about my wireless station."
Imagine the surprise of thej
visitor when he discovered that ]
Archie, during his solitary con-j
finement, had constructed a first
rate wireless telegraph station.
Of course when the visitor went
home he saw to it that Archie
had what he needed to make the
station more complete, and so
well did his station work that he
was one of the first wireless
operators in the world to pick up
news of the great Titanic dis
aster. The wireless operators on
the passing ships have become
greatly interested in Archie and
always signal to him as they
pass.
The other day the friend went
to see Archie again. He found him
eagerly watching for the base
b ill score, war news or any other
news from the outside world that
he could catch through his little
instrument. When the visitor
asked if there was anything he
needed, Archie said, "No, 1 have
everything 1 need." And he hesi
tated and stammered a little,and
then added. "Would it be too
much trouble for yon to send me
an occasional copy of one of the
big magazines?" It seems a
pity that the new law about ama
teurs makes his wireless station
ineffective just at present.
Now if every boy in America
who hears this story will send
Archie a post card with a cheer
ing message Christmas would
be happy indeed for this bright
but lonely boy i i his solitary
prison.
If you were Archie wouldn't
you just love to have bright
beautiful pictures, cheery little
messages from other boys out in
the great big world? Send a
post card anu join in the "Christ
mas Post-Card Shower" for Ar
chie. His address is

Young Man, Slow Up!
Young man, slow up! The pace
you are setting is a killing one.
You may fancy that you are mak
ing a stunning start in life, but
it is a start that distance you
in the end. Don't go too fast,
my lad. Are you smoking a half
dozen cigars a day. Slow that up;
that means a home in twenty
years.
Besides, all the glad rags of the
world never made a man. You
are taking an occasional drink
with good intention never to be- j
come a habitual boozer. Slow up: j
the road to hell is paved with j
good intentions.
You are winning smiles from!
some silly girl by spending all!
you can earn or borrow upon her. j
Slow up: a wife won in this way j
is worse than the seven year itch,:
because it lasts longer.
You are gambling a little now
and, just taking a few chances!
for the fun of the thing. Slow j
up; suckers are small fish, never
grow very large, but they were
first nibblers.
You can blow yourself out. The
first quarter is reached by just
trying to keep up with the pace
| makers. Contract bad habits,
i keep foolish company, listen to
! bad advice, spend all you can run
! in debt, swell around, act a dunce
and you will be a failure just as
sure as effect is the result of
cause. You'll have a good time for
; ten years and a bad time for sixty
years. Be wise and clean and
economical that life may be large,
fine and splendid to you.—Los
