I8 FIFTYSIX YEARS OLD Was Born In 0ld Virginia, Lived In the South, and Has Been Prom- inent Since 1885. SLEEPS NEARLY HALF THE TIME Is & Shorthand and Typewriter Ex- pert, Wears Glasses and Ap- pears Happy, Woodrow Wilson will be the next president of the United States and the first Democratic president since Grover Cleveland. This statement is based on the election returns which had come to the Pioneer by 6 a. m. this morning. Early returns from the east indicate that he made a clean: sweep in>the possible excep- tion of Pennsylvania and that he car- ried the solid south. Here are some interesting facts about president-eléct Wilson: He is fifty-six year old. He has a charming and beautiful wife and three charming daughters. * His daughters all look much more like him than their mother. They are all grown and unmarried. His first name is “Thomas,” but he has not used it for many years. They called him Tommy in college. He does not use tobacco. Drinks a little wine sometimes and a Scotch highball when very tired.- Butter- milk is his favorite beverage. He is nearly blind in his right eye a8 the result of an accident in youth. ‘When reading he holds a mondcle in front of the damaged eye. His favorite recreation is golf, but he walks much. He never drinks ice water. Sleeps from nine to twelve hours out of every twenty-four. Likes automobiling, but often goes to sleep in his motor. He is a shorthand and typewrit- ing expert. Writes all his speeches, lectures and books that way. He uses the “Graham system” of short- hand. He is 5 feet, 10 inches tall, weighs 177 pounds. He can run a half mile at a good pace without losing his “wind.” Dislikes military display. Except a few thousand dollars which he saved from his salary as president of Princeton, he has no money or property. Considers “13” his lucky number. There are thirteen letters in his] name and in his thirteenth year as a professor at Princeton he was elected its thirteenth president. Likes to .go to the theater. comedy to light opera. His best speeches are impromptu. He has enormous ears and a large mouth, with large, irregular, some- what discolored teeth. He wears eye glasses all the time. Was: 'a good baseball and football player when a young man. He is Scotch-Irish. His father was a Presbyterian minister and- he is a Presbyterian, too. When away from home he sends his wife a “lettergram” every night. Prefers About Woodrow Wilson. Born at.

C., Nov. 6.—An attache of the Turkish embassy here offers the following information con- cerning Ottoman titles to aid Amer- ican readers in digesting the news from the seat of war in the East. To begin with, it must be under- stood that all American. prefixes, such as “Mr.”, “General”, “Govern- or,” etc., become affixes in Turkey, the title following the name of the individual instead of proceding it. A Caliph ranks next to the sul- tan, being a prince of the royal line, with the added distinction of being “Mahomet’s representative.” Next, in the Turkish religion, comes Chek-Ul-Islam, or the head of the Mahometan faith. Imam is the title by which a priest is commonly addressed. Pasha is the highest title within the gift of the sultan. It 'is bestow- ed chiefly upon men who attain dis- tinction in the arts or commerce. The word “Bey” affixed to a Turk- ish surname signifies that the wearer is distinguished in the service of the state. The term “Effendi” implies that the man so addressed is superior to the average man in birth, breeding and education, although not of the same high rank as a “Bey.” The Grand Vizior, or Sadorazam, it the premier of the cabinet and the highest of-the government civil offi- cials. i Thé governor of a province s ad- Graduated from the law .depart- ment University of Virginia 1882 Practiced law at Atlanta .....1883 Married Helen Louise - Axson of Savannah .. ....... g .1885 Became professor of political econ- omy at Bryn Mawr College .1885 Beé¢ame professor of political econ- omy at Wesleyan University 1888 Became professor of jurisprudence *‘and politics at Princeton...1890 _Became president .of Princeton Universitl .:.... ceeeei..1902 Elected governor of New ‘Jersey on the Democratic ticket ...1911 Recelved.

A strikin® proof of ‘this has been shown. on the cattle show circuit at various state fairs this fall. One of many instances.will suffice. Recently a prominent state fair judge had to: choose between two cows with the same dam but sired by different bulls, for the female championship of the breed. So strikingly imilar in type was each of them to its own sire, though the dam was the same, that there was no trouble in distinguish- ing between the two. The one that had been produced by the more out- standing sire was so-superior to the|' one that had been produced by the less superior bull”that there was no trouble about the selection. The principle illustrated is of prac- tical value to the farmer who is thinking of beginning a herd with limited capital, or who has a very common herd that he desires to grade up. An average grounp of calves will be far superior. to their commonly bred mothers if a good bull is used. Such a bull can be purchased very reasonably if proper care is taken by the purchaser.—Ray P. Speer, Min- nesota College of Agriculture. PREPARE TO FIGHT DISEASE. So many hundred people in Minne- sota are dying each month from pre- ventable diseases that all intlli- gent persons are trying to stop this suffering and sorrow. Diseases like consumption ‘and typhoid fever are due more to carelessness and filth than anything else. Many clubs and other organizations are taking ad- vantage of the long winter evenings to plan cooperative work in helping stamp out preventable diseases. This is the most sane way of at- tempting to cut' down the economic loss from preventable diseases. In some’ places clubs are studying the local milk situation; discussing filth and fly breeding places; investigat- ing poor sanitation; and noting how many babies are needlessly blind. Any of these lines of work will re- veal conditions which will force ac- tion.—Health Talk No. 17.

This Flnluullr Deal. A man with a h-lr lip l'.rolled intoa saloon one day, orderd a drink and, after “putting it away,” offered to match the bartender for the price of it. The bartender consented, and, taking out a cofn, threw it into the aix and told the hair-lip man to “call” it. The coin came down and the bartender’s palm hid it froms view on the coun- ter. “What do you cry?” he asked. “Tneah,” said the man, making such &-peculiar grunt that no one could have said whether he meant heads or tails. “What?” ‘neah,” again. “Is that what you mean?” asked the partender, lifting his hand, exposing the coin, “Yeth,” replied the man, -and he walked out, leaving the bartender to figure out whether he’'d been “done” or not-~New York World, -Judgment Sometimes at Fault.
