HOME WOMAN’SSPHERE,
WORLD IS MAN’S, THINKS
MRS. WOODROW WILSON
SEA GIRT. July 9. —Imagine a wom
an at the magnetic age of middle life,
soft in voice, matronly in contour,
brown of eye and hair, above the aver
age in height, charming in personality,
and you have the present mistress of
the "Little White House" and possible
future mistress of the "Big White
House” at Washington—Mrs. Wood
row Wilson, who, until young Lawyer
Wilson came a-courting back in 1885,
was Miss Ellen Louise Axson, of Rome,
Ga.
Mrs. Wilson is still surrounded by the
aura that clings to the soft, dreamy
South, and more particularly to the old
fasffiioned Southern woman, the woman
who was once described by a distin
guished visitor from abroad as "God's
agent on eartit."
It was at the close of a dinner party
given at the summer executive man
sion that the wife of the Democratic
nominee for the highest office within
the gift of his party received a repre
sentative of The Atlanta Georgian.
From the drawing room one could see
Governor Wilson on the glttss-enclosed
veranda, chatting .with a bevy of
friends, while his gaze wandered to the
deep line of blue, beyond a sweep of
green, that marks the sea.
She’s a Real Artist.
On one of the big tables in the draw
ing room, the only one unadorned with
beautiful floral testimonials of friend
ship, stood a huge Independence day
cake in red and white and blue. On,
the wail opposite the huge fireplace
was a life-size painting of the Madon
na, one usually gracious and free from
ecclesiasticism. This was the last por
trait Mrs. Wilson did before taking up
landscape work several years ago.
It is only one of the gems front Mrs.
Wilson’s brush, a brush with so mas
terful and vivid a stroke that an art
critic recently- gave it as his opinion
that “if Mrs. Wilson could devote all
her time to her art. she would undoubt
edly take first rank among the women
artists of the New World.”
"The Madonna is a copy—only that,”
said Mrs. Wilson, motioning the visitor
to a seat on the big divan opposite the
painting. “The original is wonderful.
I’m glad you like the copy*.”
A study of the painting makes the
spectator realize that the artist's beau
tiful spirit of motherhood is reflected—
the spirit of motherhood which Mrs.
Wilson believes to be the ideal type of
womanhood.
Gives Her Idea of Happy Life.
“The happiest life for a woman.” said
Mrs. Wilson, smiling happily,, “con
tains three elements—a husband with
whose tastes you sympathize, your
home and your children. I've often saia
—and I’m sure my husband, practical
theorist that he is, agrees with ine—
that husbands and wives reach their
truest and’ noblest development when
they are complimentary to each other.
That's the way I feel about my hus
band. 1 want him to feel that I am
always at his side."
When she speaks of her husband Mrs.
Wilson’s fine eyes light with enthu
siasm, and her conversation proves her
splendid grasp of big social and politi
cal topics.
"To say that 1 am pleased at Mr.
Wilson's nomination is superfluous,”
she continued earnestly. "I am proud
of the trust that has been reposed in
my husband. What woman would not
be? Isn't it a great thing for a wom
an to realize that the man she loves
is considered by a great political party
to be worthy of the highest office in the
land?
"But 1 can not say that I am elated
at the honor that has come to Mr. Wil
son,” added the governor's wife soberly.

"because 1 appreciate the grave re
sobilities that Mr. Wilson's present
position carries with it. But no brave
man fears or shirks responsibilities—
rather he prays that his abilities will
measure up to his responsibilities.
Has Faith in Husband’s Ability.
“Mr. Wilson has an opptrunlty to dv>_
enormous good if he is permitted to
carry out the principles and the high
Ideals for which he stands and has al
ways stood. I know my husband bet
ter perhaps than any other persons in
this country. I have faith that he will
live up to his opportunities.
"I want others to know my husband
as I know him. You know my hus
band’s Ideals and mine have always
been supplementary to each other. I
have the greatest confidence in his
ability to render practical the theoret
ical ideals which he holds. I have such
great confidence in the clearness of his
vision that I have frequently accepted
his ideas on subjects about which I
had no opportunity for personally in
quiring into.
“1 believe that Mr. Wilson will be
elected. If he is, I believe he will make
a good president. To my mind he pos
sesses one of the most essential char
acteristics of a good president—sin
cerity.
"Mr, Wilson is the very essence of
unselfishness. He never thinks of him
self. I have to do that part of his
thinking for him. That is one reason I
say we are supplementary.
“Home Woman’s Sphere; World Man’s”
“It seems to me that a woman has
almost enough to do in attending to
her home. While I believe it wise for a
wife to know everything about her
husband's business affairs, 1 do not be
lieve in a wife interfering in his busi
ness affairs. The home is woman's
sphere, the world Is man's.
"A man does not want to be both
ered with housekeeping details. As a
rule, they are too trivial to be dis
cussed. It Is a good rule for wives not
to trouble their husbands with the
vagaries or idiosyncrasies of the butch
er and the baker.
"Do not take this to mean that a wife
should not spur her husband on in his
vocation.” continued Mrs. Wilson.
"That seems to be the double function
of woman—ambition accelerator and
mental recreator. A wife should make
it her business to see that her husband
secures a few hours’ mental recreation
every day."
"Have you kept up with recent po
litical developments?” Mrs. Wilson was
asked.
“Indeed I have," she answered quick
ly. “I have been the most interested
person in the household, and that is
saying a great deal. The most thril
ling thing to me has been the visits of
Dudley Field Malone, Senator O’Gor
man's son-in-law, and other fine young
men of his type, who called here and
told of the splendid confidence they
have in Mr. Wilson and his convictions
on public questions.”
Enjoy* Excellent Health.
Touching upon the new social duties
that will develop upon her in the event
of Governor Wilson’s election, Mrs.
Wilson said:
“I have only been to Washington
once. It seems curious, but I visited
the national capital on only one occa
sion. This was a few years ago, when
I accompanied Mr. Wilson to Wash
ington, where he was to make an ad
dress.”
Mrs. Wilson said that she enjoys ex
cellent health, although she has al
ways insisted upon numerous outside
interests as a means of “broadening
one's nature.”
"I have splendid health. 1 conserve
my strength as much as possible, and I
do not attempt things beyond my
strength. If I did something more im
portant would probably suffer in con
sequence. I think that American wom
en, as a rule, have too many interests
at once. Thus they draw upon their
strength far in excess of what they
should to keep their health.
"However, the tireless energy of the
twentieth century woman is wonderful
to behold. It is a manifestation of the
awakening spirit of American woman
hood—a spirit that is destined to help
us maintain ourselves in the vanguard
of civilization. I am a great believer
in the intellect, strength of character
and optimism of thje American wom
an.”
With this as her motto, Mrs. Wilson
promises to be one of the most popular
hostesses who ever extended the hand
of welcome to white house visitors.
