It derives its importance from its relation to events today. For the words of the man who was not listened to by the majority of the people when he sought to ensure peace by means of an organization of world powers are being applauded by the .spectators of his film biography. Here is history repeating itself with a difference, for who in the free nations today would not second Wilson's demand that another world war be made impossible by some form of international organization for AND THK N.

That Woodrow Wilson was Post- master General Frank Walker advises Amer icans in announcing the rules for mailing of Christmas gifts for Army and Navy personnel overseas. This year the Christinas mailing period for both Army and Navy overseas forces is the same September 15 to October 15. After October 15 no gift parcel may be mailed to a soldier without the presentation of a written request from him. The great demands upon shipping and the need for giving preference to arms, munitions, medicine and food is the prime reason for the early mailing date. Moreover, gift parcels must travel great distances to reach Army and Navy personnel who are located at remote points, and frequently the transfer of large numbers to new stations necessitates forwarding of the packages and additional time is required. "The response that our people made last year during the overseas mailing period demonstrated that they will cooperate in any measure designed for the welfare of our armed forces personnel," Mr. Walker states. It is not easy to concentrate on Christmas shopping in the midst of warm weather here at home, but our people recognized this need, and because they want the men and women who are absent from their homes to know that they are not forgotten at Christmas they took pains to assure proper delivery of Christmas gifts. "I know that our people will observe the overseas mailing schedule once more this vear" the Postmaster General said, "but I do wish to stress this fact: More care must be taken in wrapping and packing parcels securely and addressing them clearly and correctly. "It is not a pleasant thing to visit a postal concentration center and see the numbers of Christmas parcels which will never reach ser- warning against the verv World War which now con vulses the hemispheres, and that we are still talking about making a Third World War impossible, is tragically ironical. This picture shows Wilson finally going to the people with his plea for support of the proposed membership of the United States in the League of Nations. The response was not strong enough to influence the opposition in Washington. Enforced by events of the present war, the picture has an extraordinary effect 'Upon its spectators. For they are seeing made the very history of which they are a part. It is doubtful if any theatre presentation has ever had such an enforcement of actuality as has this film, for nearly every person who looks at it on the screen is in the armed forces or has a relative who is fighting for the establishment of the de mocracy for which Mr. Wilson gave his all. Ilis speeches for the rights of minorities made 25 years ago are cheered today and have become a part of the thoughts and convictions of people who see and hear him as a character in this motion picture. Such a presentation transcends all ordinary limitations of the stage and screen, for it becomes a part of the times we live in. Such a film is "Wilson." Christian Science Monitor. Error always addresses the passions and prejudices: truth scorns such mean intrigue, and only addresses the understanding and the conscience. Azel liackus.

The fact that the resistance for the most part is surprisingly feeble is proof mar. uermany s tiuniy-spreamanpower and equipment is fast being depleted. Another thing that has aided this latest invasion is probably the fact that Hitler has transferred most of Iris reserves to the Eastern front where the opposition to the Russians has noticeably stiffened.
