Woodrow Wilson: " Together with William H. Taft, Daniel C. Beard and William G. McAdoo, I was elected an Honorary Vice President of the Boy Scouts of America, recently met on Bear Mountain, N. Y. Warren G. Harding was elected Honorary President. The active President-elect is Colin H. Livingstone of Washington, and Daniel C. Beard is again National Scout Commissioner."

Wilhelm: "The atrocious heat wave now engulfing Holland gave me a craving for the seashore. My second wife and I motored to the beach for the first time since the beginning of my exile, and visited Baron von Heydt, a German, at Zandvoort. He thought it necessary to fly the Prussian flag at my approach, and caused German songs to be sung."

Newton D. Baker, ex-Secretary of War: " Speaking before a convention of the Ohio Electric Light Association, I predicted a Continental European War, the most terrible ever, within four years, with the possibility of the United States being involved, ' unless,' said I, ' something is done about it.' I then pointed to the League."

Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt: "Hearing that General Gouraud had obtained my permission to use the features of my son, Quentin, on a monument France was planning to erect to American soldiers lost in the Champaigne district, a New York Times reader protested. ' What,' asked this reader, 'will the mother of Pat Brady on Tenth Avenue say to this scheme? And the mother of Tony Musanti on Mulberry Street? And the mother of Ikey Greenfield on Avenue B? Their sons gave their lives also and are as worthy of being immortalized in marble as any other!' "

J. Pierpont Morgan: " I purchased a 14-acre estate at Locust Valley, L. I. (near my own estate and those of my other son and daughter), as a gift for my son, Henry Sturgis Morgan, and his recent bride, formerly Miss Catherine Adams of Boston."

Mary Eaton, Follies toe dancer: " Into our contract for a musical show starring me, Flo Ziegfeld put a clause forbidding me to marry while this contract ran. I refused to sign, though I have no immediate marriage in mind."

Myron T. Herrick, U. S. Ambassador to France: "Speaking of the United States in world affairs, at a banquet in Paris for sight-seeing American bankers, I said: 'We are like a Newfoundland pup, upsetting and breaking dishes. But we will learn'."

Edward of Wales: " Playing at No. 1, I helped the Old Oxonians trounce the Old Cantabs (Cambridge) 5 to 3 in polo at Hurlingham. I knocked a goal."

Miss Alice Robertson, ex-congresswoman from Oklahoma: "Because I had voted some time ago against their bonus, 60 wounded war veterans balked at picnicking with me and said I ought to be court-martialed. Hearing this, I explained: ' It's just those heavy pajamas . . .that makes 'em that way . . . I'm going to call out every sewing circle in Muskogee!'"

Georges Clemenceau: "A movie called Le Plus Fort (The Strongest), based on a novel written by me, was suppressed by Prefect Barnier of the War Department. This Prefect was once an undersecretary of mine! "

S. J. Bloomingdale, Manhattan department store owner: " I am building a memorial stairway to my father in his emporium, adapted from the main staircase in the Palace of the Podestas of Florence, the famous Bargello."

Homer Samuels: "William Thorner is suing me for defamation because I said he never taught my wife, Mme. Galli-Curci, a note. Thorner claims he ' discovered' Galli-Curci, as well as Rosa Ponselle and Anna Fitziu, and made them great singers."

Dr. William J. Mayo of Rochester, Minn.: " In London I told reporters that British medicine was under a terrible handicap because of restrictions on vivisection. This, I said, was brought about not so much by George Bernard Shaw's propaganda as by the ' downright mendacity of bleating women'."
