{T/;ilson, G;ining Very Slowly, i Gives Up Theater for Summer! Only Recreation Now Daily Auto Rides Through Rock Nearby By ROBERT T. SMA In the bagk-wash of the great wave of sympathy which swept down up- on President Harding in his grave illness, there has been renewed in- Quiry as to the present-day condition of another man who was broken on the wheel of duty while he, too, was cupant of the White House, odrow Wilson appes to holding his own. Rear Admiral Ca T. Grayson of the Navy, who has at- tended the former President ever since he first stricken in the fall of 1919, says there is gradual improvement right along in his pa- tient's but the gain is relatively small as not to be noticed LY the orlinary observer. Temporarily, the Saturday visits to his favorite theatre have been given up by Wilson. The heat of the summer and the possibility of e sive fatigue arc given as the reasons for the sbandonment of the theatre parties But it is said that M Wilson is looking forward to their resumption in the early fall. Vaudeville has a never failing source of keen amuse- ment to the former President. Where pictures and the more serious dram have failed to hold his in ts, th diversified program of th house s 1o have m need wa condition, night vaul his every Tnkes Long Rides. Wilson continues to take long| rides every afternoon. using the same car that was his in the White House.
