loWANt WOULD ADVANCE
SOCIAL CENTER WORK

Washington, D. c., June lot has
remained for an Iowa banker farmer
to make a practicable proposition to
establish social center in a rural COM
munity. Banker Jasper Thompson, OF
Forest City. through a letter from his
son. Bert Thompson. advised Senator
Kenyon today that he was building a
fine modern house on his farm near
Forest City and wanted to turn it over
to the community as a social center.
The son warmly indorses the plan.
Senator Kenyon advised the depart
ment of agriculture and asked the de-
partment to send federal expert to
Winnebago county, where Forest City
is located. 1t Is not certain the de-
partment has the funds available. II
the expert is. sent he can i've in the
house furnished by Banker Thompson.
HAis Is a practicable start toward
establishing the social center for the
rural community" said Senator Ken
yon. 1T is a fine thing and hope the
department viii send an expert We
must have social centers If the boys
and giils are to be kept on the farm"

Wants to See Him.

Vera Cruz. June s.--President Huerta

Gen. Francisco villa, according to q
report brought here by a refugee, but
the character, of their communication
is somewhat unconventional.
General Villa, according to the re-
port sent one Of his telegraphers with
in the federals lines. He tapped wire
and sent to Huerta a message in which
Villa called his enemy unpleasant
names and urged him not to hasten his
departure from the capital as Villa was
anxious to see him before he left Villa
requested Huerta to wait, saying he
soon would be in the capital.
President Huerta. according to the
story. approaching the grim humor OF
the situation, gave orders that any sim
liar messages Should not be withheld
but delivered to him Immediately.
Since this order was issued villa, ac-
cording to the refugees, has not dis
appointed Huerta one day ~ Though
the wording of his messages are always
different each message is said to be
more vituperative than the other. The
dali receipt Of these messages is said
to have become something Of a joke az
