Th# visit of President Wilson to Detroit, Monday, to address ths World's Salesmanship congress was his first since selection as the head of the
nation, and he was everywhere greeted with great enthusiasm, Mrs. Wilson, bride of only s few months coming In for almost as much attention as the
executive. The pictures show the crowds surrounding ths presidential carriage at the Michigan Central depot. The president Is standing, smiling in
response to the plaudits of the crowd.
SAYS U. S. HAS
TOO MUCH “PEP”
»y Senator Lafayette Young, Editor
Des Moines Capital.
Uncle Sam'a princ'pal reputation
is as a farmer and the careless user
of language. Hut he can be a worlds
power, a>> a manufacturer nn«l ship
per, If he will be energetic and care
ful.
Uncle Sam’s domain is so big that
It ought to bo an inspiration to every
salesman he sends abroad. 8o;ne of
his salesmen are accused of being
swollen with pride, to such an ex
tent that they refuse to ask a cus
tomer what he wants, pref* rring to
tell him what he ought to have This
same pride causes him to think that
his language is universal and that
his customer Is a blockhead for not
understanding it. Instead of lieing
polite and atGunptmg to acquire the
other man’s language.*he tries to
substitute his own. This is due to
too much American blood pressure.
Uncle Sam has been selling goods
In other lands and delivering the
tame by means of ships belonging
to hla principal competitors. His
American goods are sent out In Brit
ish, German. French or Japanese
bottoms. He must ask his principal
competitors to furnish the delivery
wagons. Suppose Hugh t’halniers
and myself owned the only two
hotels in Detroit Buppo«e we were
competitors in securing guests for
our hotels. Suppose I owned the
only bus line by which Hi gh dial*
mer’s passengers rnuct he oellvered,
as well as my own. how many guests
would Hugh Chalmers have in his
hotel until after I knew that all the
beds In my hotel were filled?
Uncle Bam Is Just in that fix.
when he engages in shipping to for
eign countries. His competitors own
the only omnibuses. They will de
liver his goods after they have

carefully delivered their own.
Uncle Sam blusters anil declares
he pays the biggest wages in the
world and he does, hut he must have
men of genius to make patterns and
plans, and he must have the ma
chines to turn out the product or
else he will no* be able to competa
with those parts of the world where
farm laborers can not earn |4O per
month.
Uncle Bam as a salesman Is full
of steam and energy and he will talk
about the old star spangled banner
and the glories of the republic, but
he must get his feet down on the
earth when he undrrtAkes to com
pete with other countries. He must
have hanks through which to handle
his money in Bouth America, in
China and Japan. He must have
every facility which every other
country has as to steamships. He
must learn not to tell the man in
sum** ether country that hi. 1 clothes
do not fit him; but he must assure
hint that he has the finest tailor on
earth He is not out in the world
to reform th*» dress of men and
women r.or to brag about the re
public. He is out to sell goods.
Uncle San. has rupplanted the
pound with the dollar as the com
mercial yardstick, but he ought to
be well enough satisfied with that
not to say much about It And If
Europe wants to set the hands of
the clock forward or hack, to get
more da> light and to cut down the
gns bill, Uncle Sam ought to let It
go at that
This is the only land and Uncle
Sam ought to ho the only salesman.
Out of the Moutha of Babe*.
Small Nellie had been to an “Un
cle Tom’s Cabin” matinee. After the
show was over she said: "Mamma,
does little Eva play again tonight?"
"Yea, dear, I suppose so,” replied
the mother.
"Well.” continued Nellie, After a
moment’s thought, "I don't see how
she can die and go to heaven at 4
o'clock and get back in time to die
again at 8.”
Mrs . Wilson Smiles
Sweetly , But Will Not
Talk tor Publication
Although many hundreds of wom
en pressed their way through the
crowded avenue leading to the De
troit Athletic club, only a mere
handful managed to shAke hands
with the president, as policemen and
club attaches would not nllow any
women to enter the lobby of the
club, where the reception was held.
How the stray women managed to
elude this combined vigilance was a
mystery If a triumph.
Mrs. Wilson was taken Immedi
ately upstairs in the club, to the
I
palm room, it having been decided
that the first fady of the land should
not be subjected to the strenuous
handshaking of a public reception on
so warm a morning.
Mrs, Wilson, In a filmy white
gown, her smooth dark hair topped
by a broad-brimmed white hat from
beneath which her brown eyes
sparkled, was as cool and fresh
looking as a white rose in a June
garden. She sat in the palm room,
attended by a secret service officer,
and chatted informally with the fol
lowing women of the reception com
mittee: Mrs. Xorval A. Hawkins,
Mrs. Harry W. Ford. Mrs.

lic reception to President Wilson in
the lobby.
Mrs. Wilson deprecatlngly but
firmly refused to be Interviewed, and
while expressing herself charmed to
meet newspaperfolk In general, she
sweetly and smilingly affirmed that
she never talked for publication.
At the luncheon in the club gym
nasium a special table was placed.
Just beneath where the president
sat, for Mrs. Wilson and the ladies
of the committee. This table
prettily decorated with bachelor
buttons, red roses and white phlox.
While Mrs. Wilson sat in the palm
room, little Miss Jessie Nixon,
daughter of Manager Nixon, of the
club, shyly found her way across
the room to present a bouquet of
Mowers to the president’s wife. Mrs
Wilson accepted the flowers with
gracious thanks and smiled as the
little girl curtsied.
Mrs. Wilson, accompanied by the
reception committee, heard the
president's speech In Arcadia hall
from a reserved section in the audi
ence. Later she was driven hack
to the Detroit Athlptic club for th r
reception and luncheon.
Mrs. Wilson is more attractive
than her pictures and is blessed
with a simple, unaffected manner.
