WASHINGTON, Oct. 7. President
Wilson and Mrs. Norman Gait, whoso
engagement was announced last night
nt tho white, houso, will bo married
probably tho first week In December.
The ceremony will bo private, only a
few closo friends being Invited, and
Hill tako place nt the homo of tho
brldo on New Hampshire street near
Dupont Clrclo.
Plans for' tho honeymoon have not
been completed, but It was indicated
today that tho trip might Include n
visit to tho San Diego exposition.
Tho fact that tho president of tha
United States, on whom tho oyes ot
the world have frequently been fo
cused In tho last few months ot tho
Kuropcan war, had decided to murry
again, gavo tho national capital a
topic ot absorbing Interest which, for
tho moment, overshadowed nil ques
tions of International or domestic
politics.
Surprise to All
Tho news enmo ns a surprlso to nil
but a fow Intimate friends who know
that tho friendship of tho president
for Mrs. Gait had devolopcd Into an
Intimacy that presaged mnrlago.
Closo friends expressed today their
ploasuro at the announcement, not
only because It meant a chango from
a life of loneliness and unvaried oc
cupation to an atinosphoro of helpful
companionship. His Incessant labor
alono lu tho whlto houso during tho
period of mourning had affected his
spirits. "Whoa ho began to tnkn a re
newed lntorcst In personal affairs his
friends, noted Immediately a chango
for tho hotter lu IiIb .hcaltjt and tho
energies with which ho attacked tre
mendous problems boforo him.
Mrs. Gait is regarded ns a woman
ot rnro beauty and charm. Thoso
who havo known hero best predicted
today that sho would bo as tho first
lady ot tho land a popular hostess as
well ns n comfort and support to tho
president In his dally work.
Ilrtdo To Ho ii iW
Mrs. Gait Is about 38 years of ago,
youthful In nppcaranco and slmplo
In her tastes. Sho is a widow of a
well known busluess matt of Washr
Ington who died eight years ago. Sho
was married In 189C, lloforo that
sho was Miss Kdtth Dolling or Wythe
vlllo, Vn. Her fathor was William II.
Dolling, a lawyer ot distinction.
In tho circles of cultivated peoplo
with whom sho mingled in Washing
ton, Mrs. tialt has always been sought
out for her unusual cliaractor nnd
gifts. Miss Margaret Wilson, tho
president's eldest daughter, and her
cousin, Miss Helen Woodrow Bones,
first brought Mrs. Gait Into tho whlto
houso circles, They met her In tho
early fall of last year and wero ho
much attracted by hor that they
sought her out nioro nnd moro fre
quently. It was through this intimacy
of his daughter and cousin that tho
president had an opportunity to meet
and know Mrs. Gult, Not until this
summer, however, whon Miss Bones
Invited Mrs. Gait to Cornish, N. II.,
as a houso guest did tho president
and Mrs. Gult become Inttumtu
friends,
