CEREMONY IS VERY SIMPLE

Returns to White House at Conclu.

Washington, April S. President
Wilson wrote brief preface to the
message to congress which he previ-
ously had prepared. His determine
ton to read the message in person to
the members of both houses, sitting
in joint session, caused him to make
an addition appropriate to the occa-
sion.
The president when officially in

Senators Kern and Gallinger and Rep
resentatives Underwood and FitZ-
gerald, that both houses of congress
were organized and ready to receive
communications from him, was for
mally asked if he were coming to the
Capitol. He replied that if it were
agreeable he would avail himself OF
that privilege. He was then advised
that the house and senate met at
noon and that congress would be or
ganized in joint session and ready to
receive him at 1880 o'clock. y
The president was not accompanied
by any of his personal aides. Score.

how Burbank has added many useful
plants for the use of all peoples. Prof.

and reduction in rates of the parcel post
were announced Saturday by Postmaster
General Burleson. The changes, which
are to become effective August IS, in
clude an increase from II pounds to 20
pounds in the maximum weight of par
cells; a material reduction in the postage
rates in the first and second zones, and
the abandonment of the parcel post map
as a means of computing rates and the
substitution for it of rate chart individ-
ualized to every postofiice in the United
States.
The railroads threaten to fight the

gress are taking the plutes side because

Warning Worth Heeding.

Mr. Merchant: In my first letter some
weeks ago told YOU the country news
papers, properly used, were the best
selling agents in America. Have you
used them2 If not, why not? I also
sent out a sample form of advertising,
taken from one of the Chicago dailies,
showing how the big stores in the city
get orders from the country trade. Per-
haps you didn't see it. Perhaps your
local editor was too modest to publish it
lest it seem a mere bid for advertising.
Or possibly, you may have been sensitive
about receiving advice from a stranger.
But, gentlemen, these are all false
fears. One thing is certain; either the
country town must patronize itself or
vanish, and see no way for you to meet
city competition, except by the city
mans methods. What do I care, do
you ask? Just this: the Indoor Game
Association has no pecuniary interest in
the matter, it is true. But we are inter-
ested in humanity, and the passing of
the country town would be a calamity to
civilization.
For years we have watched with grow
ing concern the tide of country youth
to the city. We have seen

SAM MAY
TRY MEDIATION
President and Advisers Consider
ing the PrOpOsitiOn-Mexi-
can MuddIe Discussed.

Determined by the Washington At
minlstration That Neither Huer, I
Nor Any Other Faction In the Pres
ent Revolution Shall obtain Arms
or Ammunition From the United
States.
Washington, July 24.-Conferences
between the president and the chair
man Of the foreign relations commit
tees in congress developed the first
suggestion Of definite policy toward
the Mexican situation.
AS a result of these conferences, 1t
is certain that the Huerta government
and the rebels under the leadership
of Carranza will be put on an equal
footing as regards shipments of arms
and ammunition from this country
into Mexico. The president will ex-
ercise the authority vested in him in
a resolution passed by congress
March IA, 1912, and prevent the ex-
portation of munitions of war from
this country to the Huerta govern
ment. The supply of arms and am
munition in this country already has
been foreclosed to the Mexican revo-
lutionists, through action taken by
the Taft administration.
Important as such a step will be for
the Huerta government, this feature
of the administration plan did not
arouse as much interest here as the
suggestion that President Wilson and
his advisers had been considering the
possibility of mediation in the Mexi-
can situation. Nothing definite along
this line came from the White House
conference, but there was a general
expression of opinion that some such
plan ought to be tried. No attempt
has been made as yet to work out
the details, but the general lineup on
which the discussion proceeded was
that the United States should offer
its good Offices to bring about an un-
derstanding between the warning fac
tions in Mexico, with a view to reach
ing a general agreement on the hold.
ing Of special election in that coun,
try.
The suggested plan contemplated |
recognition on the part of the United
States government of the officials
duly elected in Mexico. 1t was ac-
knowledged that there are many OBJ
stacles in the way of such a scheme,
and persons familiar with the admin
istrations views on the subject would .
not venture an opinion as to whether
1t would be practicable. Furthermore,
the question was Immediately raised
as to how fair election would be as
5ured provided the factions in Mexico
would agree to such a proposition.

GIVING THEM TIME TO
GET THINKERS IN
OPERATION

Beginning next September all appli-
cants for county teachers certificates
may have two days time in which to
complete their examinations. This in
formation has been sent to the County
Board of School Examiners by State
School Commissioner Frank w. Miller.
The change in arrangements is the re-
suit of a law recently enacted by the leg.
islature, which provides that an appli-
cant who SO selects may take half the
subjects not later than the second regu-
lar examination thereafter. The sub
jects to be taken the first day may be
selected by the County Board of Exami-
ners. If the applicant taking the exam
ination i'll two days fails to make grade
of seventy-fve per cent in any subject or
subjects, he or she shall have the privi-
lege of taking examinations in the sub
iects over again at the second day of the
examination.
The new law provides that when ten
applicants shall request the holding of
an examination at place other than the
county seat, the County Board of Exami-
ners shall arrange for such examinations

GOVERNOR SEEMS
TO FURNISH PROOF
To Saloon PIacard of Bryan'S Fa-
nous Saying, Posted With
Hope Making Votes

Columbus, o., July Ex-Governor Coz
stated today that authentic information
has come to him and to Attorney Gen
eral Hogan to the effect that a numbe
of saloons i'll cities where the alleged
fraudulent petitions were sworn to, haC
made practice of harboring crooks en-
gagged in fraud.
Further more, the advices are
that owners of these places, the
governor said, 'are now doing allin
their power to shield the forgers and
periurers. 1 am making a list of
every man owning such place and
the names will be given to the state
liquor license commission with in
structions to make a careful investi-
CATION and if it is apparent that these
places were the rendezvous for the
offenders there will be no liquor IL
cense issued to them.
"It will be the policy to issue no
licenses to any saloon keeper whose
place has been the resort for crimi-
mails. The police departments in the
cities will be asked to certify the
names of the keepers of such saloons
as have been helpful in shielding
criminals from arrest. "
