Mexico.

Is 1.-The old man. coming back? And In
both senses? Is he not only to touch foot
again on his native heath, but direct at
fairs again?
He is in Europe, in health, and alive
and informed about all that is going on at
home. One of his aids has just landed in
New York on his way to Mexico. On a
special mission for his chief? He says
not. But he says much in praise of his
chief. and if he hears anything of inter-
est to him while he is on this Quincy he
is certain to report it.
Mexico knows more about Porfrio Diaz
now than when she deposed him from Of
flee and drove him away. And the out
side world knows more about both him
and her.
She had persuaded herself, and others,
that she had outgrown him. She was
progressive. He was an enemy of
progress. His old ways were not suited
to these new times. While she was
young and turbulent his iron hand had
been all very well-the very thing needed
But now, capable of self-control, and
anxious to exercise it, she wanted her
head, and would have it.
She got it, but with what result? Has
she ever been more turbulent than during
the past eighteen months? Has she ever
shown greater need of firm hand? Is
she not today harassed by the clashing
ambitions Of half dozen guerrilla chiefs,
all essaying the DiaZ role, but incapable
of playing it? If rolled into one, would
that one make SO much as his little
finger?
Madero looks pathetic. Undoubtedly
we'll meaning man, but bookish and
f1ighty. What persuaded him that he had
the capacity to put an end to Diazism?
Where had he studied his country's condi-
tons and the spirit of his countrymen?
Wherever and however he had done so,
he had missed the mark. The situation
was as far beyond his grasp as the moon.
He stumbled from the start, and at last
landed in a bloody ditch, the victim of
members of his own political household.
He not only could not control Mexico. but
not SO much as his own palace. Appeal
ing from the sword in the hands Of Diaz
to the people, he then drew the sword
himself, and persisted by it.
The Diaz government was not repub
lican in operation ours is. and 1t har-
bored many abuses. But under it Mexico
made remarkable progress. Had 1T lost
happened since it was overthrown. who
may safely answer In the affirmative?
And if the old man. should land at Vera
Cruz some fine morning and take train
for Mexico City, what more likely than
that the whole journey would echo and
re-echo with welcomes?

The Patriots.

Now life is somethin' most intense,
Like melIerdrammer thrillin'.
It's breathless moments of suspense
Are somethin' almost KILN.
The patriots seek the open door.
The chiefs their best are dom
To git them all in place before
The trouble starts a-brewin'.
We know their special lines of skill
Are seriously needed.
They hear the call Of Duty still.
1t must not be ,unheeded.
Each day our hearts less wildly throb
AS peace they pave the way fur.
Fur every time one gifts job.
The country's that much safer.

Having as a Crime.
From the Baltimore Sun.

Hazng in it's milder forms constitutes
an assault, but a North Carolina jury
decides that when the death of the victim
results II is manslaughter. At best, it is
a vicious sort Of "fun." cowardly as it is
brutal The boys who made Isaac Rand
dance on a barrel at midnight in Chapel
Hill. n. c., never dreamed a tragedy
would result. The courts refused to en-
terrain the plea that the students were
not guilty in that they had no idea of
killing Rand. Whether killed Gin fun
or not. Rand was dead and those who
caused his death were responsible. The
sight of those three young college men
sentenced as criminals ought to exert a
SOLDERING influence on haZers everyw here.
The law can deal with this nuisance If
the college authorities fail to do so.

How Advertiser,
Reduces Your
Cost of Living
BY JOHN p. FALION.

BY JOHN p. FALION.
Advertising is the means
by which merchants Or man
ufacturers may tell a great
number of people about the
superior quality of their
goods, the desirability of
their merchandise and the
reason it will be to your adj
vantage to patronize them.
Advertising enables mer-
chants to bring hundreds
and thousands of customers
to their stores. 1t enables
them to do a large volume
of business at minimum ex-
pense
Advertising establishes the
confidence Of the commit
nifty, makes new friends,
keeps old customers inter-
ested and brings the news
of the store right into the
customers home.
The merchant who adver-
tises continuously appeals to
all the people in town, while
the merchant who does not
advertise sits within his
door and waits for the peo-
pie to find him out or ac-
cidentally drop in as they
are passing by.
Advertising is such a
powerful selling force and
business builder that mer-
chants who use it are en-
abied to sell better goods at
the lowest prices. Read the
advertisements in THE
STAR closely and con-
stantly every day for proof.
