President Wilson has made It clear that there is no

TO inure Mexico, but merely exercise IFS good Of

tons.
He also has made IT clear that there is no disposition
on the part OF this country meddle in militant way
in the internal Quarrels that for many months have
racked our neishhor south of the Rio Grande The
whole disposition al this end of the line is 10 give
Mexico friendly assistance I'm composing its political

such good offices in the spirit in which they are ex-
tended and not do anything to afront government
so friendly national government is That also is
true Of the revolutionary leaders in Mexico But above
all other things both the Federas and the revolution

Lord and Lady Granard have been
spending the summer at Castle
Forbes, County Longford in ireland,
which has been vastly improved
since the lords American marriage"
The demesne as we'll as the sur
rounding country are very pictures
que and attractive The Forbes
family are of Scotch descent, but
have become Catholics since the
present lords father joined that
church.
Rumor in British administration
circles Identifies Lord Granard with
the office of the Irish vice royalty,
under the new order, as established
by The home rule bill. Lord Granard
being a Catholic and Lady Granard's
American riches no doubt make such
an appointment very popular and
suitable. Society Of any country and
of any nationality Is selfish. What
Is chiefly demanded Of a leader is
wealth and prestige.

Hunger strikes in England are an
ancient custom and we're not insti-
tuted. but renewed by the militant
suffragists The procedure of fasting
was FIRST adopted in ireland. Having
exhausted all legal means to make a
wealthy and powerful debtor pay
the creditor could employ one more
effort that of standing before his
debtors door. refusing to take any
nourishment until the money had
been paid If the debtor permitted
his creditor to starve. to death, he
was held responsible for it and was
compelled to pay his victims family
considerable damages in addition to
the original debt
The custom of hunger striking is
traced 10 St. Patrick, who tasted to

New Haven and Hartford railroad. 1t has had wreck

injured resulting from those wrecks has been appall-

twentyone persons killed and hve others of the
victims were injured badly that they probably will
die is merely the elimination Of long train Of dis.
asters that has served to bring the railroad into dis
repue.
lt is apparent that the Federal and State officials
are determined to ascertain if possible The cause OF
the wreck near New Haven and if the circumstances
should warrant it, TO punish those responsible for op-
Grating conditions that led to such terrible loss
OF life In fact il is suggested that the Interstate
Commerce Commission will make this investigation
the most searching conducted hy it since Il

With the approaching opening of public schools,
many of our boys getting restless to 90 TO work.

The iingling of pocket money enjoyed by the older
youngsters To get 81 day az boys job to have
some spending money to treat the girls, and to
junkets without asking dad for financial help
ambitious enough And yet how many boys have ut
tery spoiled their future by throwing away the dol

low who lacks education occasionally gets ahead
ing the possession of exceptional gift nine
out of ten he is crude mentally and has re-
main plodder ribbon measurer all his life. Get all
the education you You will never regret it.
There are many instances. Of course, in which par
ents who would like to keep their boys in school are
prevented doing because through misfortune their
wages are needed 10 make both ends meet in the
household. All such boys and all such parents are
deserving Of the heartfelt sympathy OF friends Of lib
eral education. Unfortunately. however there are
thousands Of instances in which boys leave school
