the shadows to the summit and the
sunlight Get out Of parsimony into
plenty and out Of apprehension into as
surance. Get 10 God. Let our mission
be in life 20 serve rather than 70 be
served"

BORDER CLOUDS B[ACKEN
Intervention In Mexico IL Imminent
Unless Conditions Soon Improve

Washington, Sept. 10.-Offcial Wash
ington is all expectancy over the Mex
lean situation. Whether the United
States will be compelled to intervene
because of conditions along the bor-
der and the abuse and in some cases
murder of American citizens, depends
upon the unfolding of the next few
days.
Should President Taft feel that in
tervention is necessary to prevent the
taking of lives of innocent foreigners
and destruction of their property thru
ina ability of the Mexican federal gov
ernment to curb the revolutionists, he
will call special session of Congress
and lay the matter before it, asking
for the determination by that body of
what shall be done.
Army is Prepared
While no further movement of
troops to the front has been ordered
since two regiments of cavalry from
western forts were started on their
way last Saturday, the general staff of
the army has been very busy for some
time past making plans for any emer-
gency that might arise Everything Is
in as complete readiness for action as
ii Is possible TO have 1t. The United
States could mobilize a large army on
the Mexican frontier much quicker
than was the case during the Madero
rebellion, when about $4,000 men were
sent to the frontier for war man.
