English girls, he tells his wife, when they are interesting, are un- mistakably very attractive tures. American' girls have great and obylous auperiority in beauty, figure, style, grace, and a sort of effectiveness, but English | girls are, I should judge, as a rule, sweeter and easier to love in an intimate domestic fashion. When they get beauty, too, they are very dangerous.
The story of Woodrow Wilson's courting is charmingly told in the first volume. Mrs. Wilson- whose devoted nursing of the President during the distressing illness is so well remembered- Was Miss Ellen Axson, daughter of the Manse in the Southern State of Georgia.
Fast and Furious Courtship, Wilson first saw her in church, and after the service secured an introduction. It was a fast and furious courtship there were long walks and longer talks, and "boat rides" and picnics. Wilson "could not keep away:" he "had to call every afternoon."
Among the five tons of docu- ments, numbering about 250,000, which Mr. Stannard Enker has had to handle, were, some
1200 that passed between Woodrow Wilson and his wife, beginning in 1883, and continuing for 80 years.
To the end they were lova lot- ters. He was never away from home more than a day without writing to her, the biographer re-. corda, writing often at great length, and the first thing he did upon his return from a journey, no matter how short, was to sit down and write "Ellen" a full account of it.
Mrs. Wilson influenced his life at many critical moments. To an extraordinary extent she protect ed him, guided him, established the environment in which his In- tense nature 'could best function, "I am the only one who can rest him," he told a friend. "My salvation," he once told her, "is in being loved."
