Mexican Situation
Has Reached Crisis.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The Next
.sn situation has reached a crisis
This was the unanimous opinion in
,ffcjal circles to-day. None would
express any doubt that this coun-
-rv was on the verge of war with
her southern neighbor. After prac-
.jcally an all-night vigil at his Of
fee, waiting for news from Mexico
city Secretary of State Sryan was
at his desk early to-day with orders
that any dispatches from Mexico be
brought to him Immediately.
State Department officials feel that
the HeXiCan situation, which sew
era lines has reached the boiling
point, is now about to boil over
The crisis had been precipitated by
the ultimatum from President Wilson
10 President Huerta, delivered by
Charles O'Shaughnessy on Sunday.
The patience of the administration
is exhausted, it is declared, and hay
ing a military and naval force avail
able to back up it's demands, Presi-
dent Wilson is understood to have
decided to play his last diplomatic

ing distance OF Mexico.
Congress Ready to Act.
With the President out Of Wash
ngton no hostile developments are
looked for to-day, but it is predict
ed in official circles that if, upon his
return to the Capital tonight, ne
finds that Huerta has defled the Unit
ed States and has decided to remain
in power, the army and navy will
be ordered into action. This can only
be done with the consent Of Con-
gress, but those who know say that
the President will have little trouble
in getting this consent.
Meanwhile matters will rest, wait
ing for Huerta's reply to Sundays
ultimatum, which, it was learned at
the State Department to-day, was of
such nature as to make a failure
10 reply equivalent to a direct de-
fance.
Both the army and navy are ready
lor action, it was stated at the War
and Navy Departments to-day.
Twelve hundred troops are encamped
along the Mexican border and the
army transports are held, provisioned
al Galveston, Texas, to move to Vera
cruz If necessary.
Could Win in Three Months.
Three battleships are already at
Vera Cruz and Tampico and others
are on their way, due to arrive to-
morrow. This will give the United
states force ample to shell anC
capture both of these ports and hold
mem, pending the arrival of the army
transports. The plans of the Wal
college, completed yesterday, insure

SHOP
EARLY

Buy your Christmas presents EARLY
Early in the day and do it now. That will
be your biggest gift of the holidays to the
workers behind the counters and on the de-
livery wagons. We begin now to suggest the
ACCESSIBILITY of this action for many reasons
principally the one above. But the shop
ping process, while simple on its face, is in
reality complex. And the carrying out of
holiday shopping plans is exacting alike to
customers and to our store organization.
People wait till they reach the store before
they begin to formulate their shopping plans.
Thus they must do their thinking, deciding
and acting in the time that should be de-
voted solely to acting.
We want to urge our customers to begin
now to map out your shopping campaigns;
to plan the extent and direction of your buy
ing: to make out tentative lists of whom to
buy for and what to buy them. We want
to suggest that customers visit our store
while the plans are in making, even though
Won do not shop during the planning. We
want YOU to be in close proximity to the
goods and will help to clarity your plans.
We want to show you that deferred shop
ming. after ALL is more distressing to you
than it is to our clerks. The latter suffer
only mental and physical fatigue; while you
suffer both and then get unsatisfactory pur-
cbases. Plan your gifts at leisure, it's more
satisfactory in every way. You'll be more
nIeased with your selection; the recipient
doubly so because of the care and discr1m1-
nation exercised on his or her behalf
So begin your campaign of suggestion
NOW. Make it constructive cooperative,
helpful
We are ready to interest you in every
part of our big WILLING SERVICE store
at YOUR convenience
incidentally might say many OF our buy-
ers are now in the Eastern markets gather
ing large stocks for you to make your Sc
Lotions from. Our advance orders placed
carly in the year are opening daily New
ideas on every counter in every department
daily. Make it point to shop early from
NOW until Christmas. We want you to feel
this is YOUR store at all times.
