After consultation with a few of the at Mr. Wilson's closest friends. Mrs. Wilson has selected as his official bio- grapher Mr. Ray Stannard Baker, of Amherst. Mass., who has many special qualificatious for

zask. the choice was made before the discovery among the President's papers of the last letter which he dictated confirmed its wisdom. This letter, which bore the date of January 2th, 1924, only nine days before Mr. Wilson's death, and was ad- dressed to Mr. Baker, indicates a definite intention to entrust the record of his lateful life to the same pen which ha undertaken a defence of his part in, thự Peace Conference..

A DEATHRED WISH,

The exact text of the letter, which was never sent, is as follows:-

Every time that you disclose your mind to me you increase my admira- tion and affection for you.

shall regard you as my preferred cre ditor and shall expect to afford you the Erstand if necessary, exclusive- access, to those papers.

But I have it on my conscience that you should know that I have not made the smallest beginning toward accumu- lating and making accessible the papers we have in mind. I would rather have your interpretation of them than of anybody else 1 know.and trust that you will mi think it inreasonable that I should ask you to herpt these pro- mises in lieu of others which would be more satisfactory but which, for the present, would be without practical value...

There will be placed unreservedly in Mr. Baker's bands the voluminous mass of correspondence and memoranda cover- ing Mr. Wilson's two terms as President. as well as material accumulated during his earlier career. His private corres- pondence during his occupancy of the White Hour mounts do no fewer ban 20,000 letters, and in addition there are many State documents which have never | ROSETA the light and innumerable me

In the literary world of the United Statis Mr. Baker enjoys a good repata tion partly as the author of a series of semi-philosophicat works like Adven- tures in Contentment," which he wrote under the pseudonym of David Gray- son, and partly as an able exponent of political liberalism. He first came in contact with President Wilson during.. the latter's term as Governor of New Jersey, and a mutual liking led to a close friendship, Mr. Baker was taken to Paris as a member of the President's entourage, and after the breach with Colonel House was regarded as his chiet confident. While he was writing the twe volumes, Woodrow Wilson and "the Peace Conference," he remained of neces sity in intimate association with his poli- tical herd; indeed, during the last tragic years of the President's life be saw more of Mr. Baker than any of his old friends,

Owing to his ill-health Mr. Wilson was. unable, as he confesses, to undertake any arrangement of his papers, and in view of the magnitude of the task which com- Fronts Mr. Baker some years must clapse before the biography appears. Alluring offers for syndicate, press rights are avail able, but will probably be rejected. Mean- while, Mr. Wilson is appealing in the Press for every scrap of information and every letter which can help in the thorough preparation of his biography. Every contact with him, no matter how brief, will be of value in completing the picture."

"BRAVEST DEED IN THE YEAR."

WORKMAN'S EFFORTS" TO SAVE COMRADE.

The General Court of the Royal Humanë Society, meeting recently at 4, Trafalgar square, Charing Cross, W.C., decided to award the Stanhope Gold Medal "for the bravest deed in the year to George lagham, of 9, Cohen-street, Miles Platting, Manchester. Ingham, who is 25, showed exceptional heroism is attempting the rescue of Alfred Bamford, 18, at the dye works of Messrs. J. Jackson and Co., at Smedley Bridge Work bad to be done in a kier, a perpendicular boiler with two manholes at the top, used for boiling_two tons of cotton cloth at a time. Two young workers akmed Bamford and Mar-1 riott were engaged in it when they were overcome by fumes of tetralene or trich- loiethylene, which had been added to caustic soda and heat then applied.

Soon after they had entered the kier they could not be seen, and a man parned Porter went down but had to come out owing to the fumes. Upon recovering be and Ingham went down together, and lifted Marriott to the top. Then Ingham went down for Bamford, but was forced to come out again.

He secured a rope and again entered the kier, fattened it round Bamford's body, and Bamford was hauled out, but died shortly afterwards
