UTICA. N. Y., Feb. 0.——In his
early college days at Princeton.
Woodrow \Vilson decided upon a
public career. not with a. view or
making money or achieving lame.
but to serve because the country
needed service. This fact was re-
vealed hem todayvin heretofore un-
published personal letters written
by the car-President to a. classmate,
the late Charles A. Talcott. former
congressman and mayor of Utica.
One letter, written in July 1879, a.
month after graduation when he
was about 22 years of age said:
“I have not yet hit upon any de—
finite plans for the work we promis-
ed ourselves except that we should,
I think. lose no opportunity to im-
prove ourselves in style and know-
ledge; should leave nothing undone
to keep ourselves fresh from the
prejudices and free from foolish in-
accuracies of those with whom we
will constantly be thrown by the nec-
essities of our law practice, in order
that when the time comes for us to
write and work for a cause we may
be able to command a hearing and
may be strong for the struggle which
it is hoped will rates no above the
pettinesses of our profession."
In another letter. dated Nov. 14,
1886, when he was professor or his-
tory and political science at Bryn
Mawr. Mr. iViison wrote:
“My thoughts have constantly re-
verted to our old compact at life
long co-operation made at college
and to my old faith. embodied in
that contract, that we could keep
our friendship fresh not a. more
thing of memory and boyish associa-
tion. but a thing of renewed vigor
and steady growth. by substituting
a. COHUTIOII can”, a common pur-
pose 0! public service for the actual
social companionship which we can-
not have.
“I want to keep close to the prac-
tical and the practicable in politics;
my ambition is to add something to
the statesmanship of the country it
that something he only thought and
not the old achievement of which i
