CONCENTRATION CHARACTERIZES LIFE OF WILSON America’s War President Equally Earnest at Work or Play; Se- cret Service Agents Guard Every Move Carefully Py nited Press. WASHINGTON, June 15.—Sim- plicity marks the daily routine of President Wilson in these busy war days at the Capitol. There is plenty of work for the chief executive but} en orders of his physician the Presi- dent devotes a certain part of each} day to “keeping in trim.” Eleven holes of golf in the morning, 2 theater two evenings a week, a hort automobile ride in the afterneon | and an occasional close friend at luncheon or dinner constitutes the re- ion that provides a half way re- ion from the strain of executive problems. President Wilson is a man of un- usual concentrative powers. When he| considers a legislative measure it is| weighed from every possible angle. All else is excluded. He plays just as hard as he work«. } This, it has been said, enables him to get more benefit from his limited amount of exercise. On the links every fibre is concen | trated on the immediate drive or putt he is executing. At the theater, the | performers either hoid his undivided | attention or bore him to distraction A well trained animal act or a rol- licking comedian are always rewarde | by hearty applause and true ringing laughter from the presidential box in Washington’s vaudeville theater. Appointments with the President are arranged a day in advance. Po- licemen are stationed at every e trance and only those who have sp- | pointments are allowed to enter the! White House grounds. Recently a blood relative of the} President, here for a short stay, found it impossible to call at the White! House. Fifteen minutes is the usual time ullowed for interviews but it is sel- dom that they last that long. The secret service guard has been doubled. When the President goes f go with him. When for a walk they he attends the theater they scatter | on every floor of the playhouse, T : secret ser » automobile follows the | resident’: rat two lengths and the crowd which congregates when the | machine stops is closely scrutinized | before the President alights. These precautions are voluntary on} the part of the secret service men. | The President has never requested | oan protection. He does not delay tepping from his automobile until the service men have sized up th crowd. Not the slightest trace of nervousness on the President's part is ever noticeable in public. The wiseness of not neglecting e@x- ercise and recreation shows in his per- sonal appearance. Despite the stress of war problems, the President is “looking fit as a fiddle.’ Saas eer ag ete In The Theatres' At the Iris Saturday. Thomas S. Guise, the Ince-Triangle «haracter actor, did not know until his white hair was cropped short re- cently that he bears a striking resem- Llance to General Joffre, comman !er in chief of the Allied forces. The discovery came about in this way. Guise was cast to play the part of General Gabrie} Durand in “Sweet- heart of the Doomed,” the new Tri- angle-Kay Bee play by Jerome N Wil- son and Monte M. Katterjohn in which ‘Thomas H. Ince presents Louise Glaum as star, and which will be shown at the Iris Saturday. Imme aiately he considered the problem of making up to resemble a French mili- tary officer. He waxed his natural mustache and combed his imperial to a glossy finish. Rut still he was not satisfied with his »ppearance. Then Ince, apparently with General Joffre in mind, suggest- ed to Guise that he allow the barber te clip his hair short. Guise adopted the suggestion, and the moment he stepped upon the stage in uniform his associates remarked that he was the double of the French commander. “Now, it seems a shame,” said <uise after agreeing with the verdit, “that I am not playing the part of General Joffre in the picture.” When Your Doctor Whites PRESCRIPTIONS Insist on having them filled at KIMBALL’S CAREFUL, PROMPT and | COURTEOUS Kimball Drug Store | make | sacrificing all rights to the | could not gain title ‘to the {above ADMIRAL HAMILTON Admiral Hamilton is one of the best- | * known of cers.
