THE APPROACH OF PEACE.

The nations OF the world are more and
more closely approaching 20 the ideal OF
perpetual peace There is a feeling OF
moral responsibility which is making tow
ard the peaceful adjustment Of the diff
culties between nations, and this is par
tlcularly true when applied TO the smaller
and weaker nations. The balance OF
power in Europe is delicate and easily
disturbed. Fear Of disturbing IL may be
the basis of this moral responsibility, but
whether that be it or not. the fact stands
that war is dreaded by all nations, and
tremendous strides are being made tow
ard it's abolition. II il does disappear
compulsive measures must still exist;
otherwise forcible adjustment could not
be had.
War with Mexico or with any other ma.
ton, is the least thing We desire, and
compulsive measures on our part are dis
tasteful. But our position OF pre-em-
inence in this Western hemisphere. our
firm adherence TO the policy Of the Mon
roe Doctrine, our duty as neighbor, our
duty to our citizens resident in Mexico
and our obligations TO the world 10 main

BASIS OF DEMANDS.

II certain demands have been made
upon the Huerta government by this coun-
try they have been based on both the
Monroe Doctrine policy and our ooliga-
ton to protect our citizens and their
property. Other nations are demanding
that some action be taken to bring about
order IL we fail 10 do ii they are Justi-
fed in doing 1t. While IT is not likely that
any attempt at acquiring a permanent
foothold is even dreamed OF, the posslbil-
ity Is such that upon this doctrine alone
We can intervene.
When we come TO the question OF the
form our Intervention shall take, beyond

OF peace and approaching war. For this

tervened: "If a nation shows that 1t

trial and political matters; il 1t keeps
order and pays it's obligations-then IL
need fear no interference from the United
States. Brutal wrongdoing, or impotence,
which results in the general loosenlng OF
the ties of civilized society, may finally
require intervention by some civilized
nation and in the Western Hemisphere
the United States cannot ignore It's duty
And I'm his message to Congress touchlng
this subject he said: Either we must
abandon our duty under our traditional
policy toward the Dominican people, who
aspire TO a republican form of govern
ment, while they are actually drifting INTO
condition of permanent anarchy, IN
which case we must permit some other
government to adopt Its own measures IN
order to safeguard it's own interests, or
else we must ourselves take seasonable
and appropriate action"
POSITION OF THIS NATION.
These instances Of Intervention by the
United States are set forth somewhat at
length for the purpose Of showing the po-
sition we occupy among the nations. the
assertion OF this long established policy
and its recognition by the world powers
have placed us in a position where we, as
nation, become the guarantor of stable
government on the American continent
For US TO shirk that duty would be to
abandon the policy. Thus We see that IN
tervention in Mexico is justified under the
Monroe Doctrine There rests upon us
the moral responsibility of compelling
either a peaceful or forclble adjustment
of Mexicos difficulties.
To this policy must be added the right
which has long been recognized as prin-
ciple of international law, that every state
holds the right of prot AS'cn over 40 sub
jects and their property abroad. That
right is measured by the right possessed
by the citizens of the foreign country.
Many of our citizens have become resi-
dent in Mexico, and large interests be-
longing TO Americans are there repre-
sented. Our position as a nation demands
their protection, and Intervention is jusu-
fed on this Drinciplp

THE RIGHT OF INDEPENDENCE

The most important rule of interna-
tional law in times of peace is known as
the right of independence. This is
nothing more than that each state or
nation shall have the right TO manage its
own affairs without interference from
others. This principle. which forbids in
tervention in the political affairs Of other
nations, has been a distinctive American
policy from a very early period. We
have insisted that all nations, whether
great or small and whatever be the form
OF government. are sovereign states and

DON'T LET WRINKLES COME

l once heard a woman say: "The

caused by facial habits.

you do one or the other habitually

drawing the forehead down in wrin-
kles about the eyes, thus giving your
self cross look that you probably do

now and then to close the eyes, is very
restful to them. If your eyes are

and to save the expense of sending
them away to the town high school,
Mr.. Lionberger is a graduate of the

and each class takes a course In agri-
culture in his school. He takes the
boys and girls right into the fields

work is done. He and his pupils also
help the farmers when the season
comes to test the seed corn and the

HOW TO USE RAFFlA
PLEASANT FORM OF PICKUP
WORK FOR SUMMER.
Useful and Attractive Little Additions
to the Summer House Are Easily
and InexpsnsIveIy Made by
Clever Hands.

The woman who can handle raffis
not only has pleasant form OF pick
up work for summer at her command
but she can make many useful and at
tractiye additions to the summer
house.
The rafiia. which only costs 10 cents
a bunch, can be bought in three or
four colors--natural color, a darker
shade of brown, perhaps, soft green
and a dark red give promise OF inter
esting combinations. II basket OF
raffia is planned for room furnished
In a definite color raffia in matching
or tremendously contrasting shade
can be bought
One of the useful things which the
raffia worker can make for the sum-
mer house is small flower holders.
These are really no more than little
baskets fitted with glass or china
dishes to hold water but they are very
effective
A pair of them on dressing table or
desk gives an artistic touch to a
whole room, and they can be effec-
lively placed In any bare spot They
are especially good for holding such
short stemmed flowers as pansies,
nasturtiums, forget-me-nots. annual
larkspur, small roses, alyssum, can
dytuft and English daisies
These little baskets can be made to
ut about old and handleless cups or
deep saucers. In either case the bas-
ket should be narrowed above the top
of the dish TO wide neck, and then
should flare at the top. This shapes
the basket like vase and gives good
support for the flower stems.
For these baskets the raffia can be
wound about either heavy cord or
damp willow. Lazy squaw stitch is
the easiest and most quickly accom-
plished of all stitches.

Cultivation Of Corn.

After the growth of corn is well
started, the roots spread out often
from one row to another. Interlacing
in the middle. A plow ripping along
between the rows at depth of from
five to six inches will cut off the
roots and very materially slacken the
growth of the plant and cut short the
yield.
The first cultivation may be fairly
deep, but after that the surface of the
soil should be stirred lightly, how
ever, in order to create dust mulch
and maintain the moisture about the
roots OF the corn.
