tho soul of Wilson. This they havo
done, from the serious Tempo to tho
irresponsible Socialist Avanti of
Naples.
Summing up tho revised idoa of
Wilson tho mani it soems that tho
supremo shock ho imparts is duo to
tho discovery that ho is no orator.
Mr. Wilson's fame as a speaker had
preceded him to the Old World. There
wore expectations of a master of the
spoken word more fluent than Poin
caro, more epigrammatic than Clem
onceau, more fiery than Briand, more
temneramontal than" Lloyd George
himself. Blank Was tho amazement
of the Sdcialist organ in Paris to learn
that Mr. Wilson is ' nono of these
things, to say no. word about those
qualities all combinod. Mr. Wilson
is understood today in. the . Fr.ench
rresjj to be skilled in the preparation
boforehand of somewhat elegantly
phrased but slightly stilted composi
tions which he commits to memory
and recites in an easy and conversa
tional tone. This, as tho French
journal remarks, and its contempor
aries ondorse, the assertion, is iot
oratory. "It rises barely to the level
of elocution." Nature, our contem
poraries concodo. has denied the
President tho gift without which the
rrator is unthinkable emotion. Mr.
Wilson, fepiting genially what he has
worked up in advance like a pupil
doing a task, can electrify no audience
with tho vehemence of his spirit, the
flood of his passion, the tide of his
feelings. His personality is not, as
tho French say. communicative. He
sets' no one afire in Briand's great
mahhdr. His voice has range with
out compass, carrying qualities but
rcthing olectrifying. Ho does not
shine in debate. He is clearly un
used to it. Interruption disconcerts
him. He can not meet his follows
en the plane Of discussion as equals
and sharo in the rough and tumble
rf contradiction and retort. In brief
Mr. Wilson has no spontaneity. He
speaks from, above to those below.
A limitation of this kind is seri
ous, as tho London Westminster
Pnette remarks, because it shows
that Mr. Wilson could not have risen
through a parliamentary body to a
post as prime minister unless he
abandoned the use of rhetoric and
(Mmbed by means of hard work In
bss shining spheres than de&ate.

"fodder's in the sh.ock," we realize
that the fall days are come. It is

tho cheerful blazing fire; and, best of
all, that brown and toothsom'e pas

-desirable pnd honest pumpkin. -
But wo -don't have to wait for win

and Ohio Valley people know how to
accept and enjoy .the ihvitation.
The pumpkin is a poet. It colors
all the landscape with golden gleams.
It tells us that promise and fruitful
