not much of dress affair.
That was what Warren always said
| when she asked him what to wear.
| Surely, ladies' day at a mans club
| was formal dress affair whatever
he might say.
| When Warren left for the office,
| Helen called up Mrs. Stevens who
was eager to go.
The privilege of going through and
| being entertained at a mans club ap-
pealed to her as it does to most WON

That afternoon Helen dressed with
much care and at half past four went
! for Mrs. Stevens. Mrs. Stevens was
always well goWned, and now, as they
started out, Helen was pleasantly con
scious that they would do Warren
credit
1t was five when they reached the
club. A white gloved uniformed door
man took their cards. Two other ser
wants. in uniform, stood just inside
the door. The place was crowded.
Warren had said there would be an
exhibition OF pictures with music and
refreshments, and that some of the
members would be there as a recep
ton committee.
But now, as Helen and Mrs Ste
vens stood rather awkwardly in the
wide hall, there seemed no one to re
Ceive them. Everywhere were groups
of people in animated conversation.

many more women. And the countless

The Naval Force In Mexican

Nevertheless; Crisis Near End
(By Associated Press.)

! Washington. April l6 6.-Huerta
has promised Charge O'Shaughnessy
to salute the American flag in apol-
o2y. and unless he changes his mind
the crisis promises to pass within
tWenty-four hours. This announce
ment was made at the White House
today. The text of the dispatch was
not published, but it was officially
stated that the only point remaining
to be settled was the number of guns
to be fired. 1t was stated that when
the salute is actually fired some of
the battleships enroute to Tampico
will be turned back.
Iuerta's suggestion that the mat
ter be submitted to arbitration Is re-
garded here as merely an attempt to
evade the main issue. Neither do
the officials here regard the insult to
the flag and uniform of the United
States as a matter fit for arbitration.
information as to just what Huerta
discussed with his Senate yesterday
is still lacking today, but the gen.
eral impression gained from meager
reports made public was that he
showed no indication of yielding.
Congress was kept in close touch
with the situation today and was in
readiness for any action that might
be required of the legislative branch
of the government

NOT CHARITY BUT RIGHT

TO the Public:
If this slogan was kept in mind
and acted upon by the classes who
ar present govern this great Amer
lean nation, we would need less
charity than we have today and
which we find very much INSULT
cient when it comes to taking care
of all the cases which rely on char
ity, of one kind or another.
Right. more than charity belongs
to begin at home. How are We prac'
ticng right? Why is this lovely city
in need of charity and donations OF
all kinds? Because the city gives
its money away without any COM
pensation. This is done by our city
officials (elected or appointed) as |
will show very plainly.
# a business man marks a just
bill "paid in full' when only half
maid he has made his debtor pres
ont has he not? This is just what
the city is doing when it collects
taxes. The city is run by few
mon. but the bills are paid by the
citizens at large, and no one has any
right to have his bill cut in two.
If this is done, something is wrong,
CITY taxes are based (or supposed TO
bel on cash valuation, but it looks
. little off when a taxpayer pays tax
of sc 800 and at the same time asks
$40 900 for half fanH the least de-
sirable half at that of that same
nropertv. the tax value of which is
assessed ar s6,590. That same tax
nqver is paying about so when he
should paw $3.50, if he was put on
mar with some of his neighbors-an
ovemption Tor present. of $50 in
disfayor of the city. Is such exemp-
tion given as a premium to those
who oppose with hands and feet)
nubltc improvement, or do the city
officials pretend to practice the doc
trine Exempt the man who SITS
