•’SE PRESIDENT WILSON’S NAME
FOR THE-LATEST WEARING APPAREL!
% *
P Mils. Nov., (i— Tlu> name of President Wilson has
up hinted those of Kin j George V. of England and of the ,
'at • Lii: icior Nicholas of Russia as a label for populru
•style- of nun’s wearing apparel in-the Paris shops. “1 j
went to my tailor’s to order a new suit, a blue surge, the;
nol of thing I’ve been wearing the last twenty years'
writes a humorous contributor to L’Oeuvre “ and that;
worthy calk'd out to the bookkeeper ‘One Woodrow Wil-j
soo suit,’ adding in explanation to me’ ‘That’s the name of j
the goods.’ • • • ■
“Then 1 went to the -hirtmaker's where I selecte''!
s >me shirts that only differed from those I used to buy be
fore the war in costing $ 1 instead of $1.60. and I heard the
saleman announce , ‘Six President Wilson shirts.’
‘‘My new hoots, comfortable but devoid ot elegance,
‘•ear branded upon their soles the name of the United Stay •
es* president.
“My hatter showed me a hat of the very shape that he-;
'■>!'<• the war we called'Tyrolean’ (and paid three times
less for). The Tyrol has lost caste and these hats today are
AYilsonV although they wore ‘GeoVg'e Fifths’ during the
first veal’s of the war.
“Mv collars remind me of on r glorious ally, for though j
the laundry chemicals have removed my name, that of the
President remains indelible and vet these same collars for i
years could boast of bearing the names of Nicholas II.”
JAP PAPERS UNDER CENSORSHIP.
TOKIO. Nov.- (I— Newspapers of Japan, forbidden
during the recent rice riots to publish anything a bo ht the
disorders, won a decided concession from the government
which now has placed the press under the same kind of vol
untary censorship as exists in the United States.
Do not grumble because you are poor. Maybe your
poverty keeps vou from making a fool of yourself.
