NEAR THE END OF MEDIATION.

1t was apparent from the beginning of Mr.. Bryan s
diplomatic feat in getting the c mediators to-
gether that it would meet with utter failure unless
our administration should side with the interests that
really favor Huerta in which our government
would committed TO the policy of using the to
set up another Huertan government in Mexico, and
that would mean with the Constitutionalists.
Such a policy manifestly would rouse this nation
against the administration.
Mr. Bryan has been extremely anxious to make a
success of his mediation plan, but not prepared
give away constitutional government and the
of land reform in Mexico He has been compelled to
assert the rights of Constitutionaliss, the dom
nant power in Mexico As to any concessions to give
Carranza control the medators utterly opposed,
for they represent the social and political class
in their countries that is supporting Huerta in Mex
leo As for the Constituencies, it is folly to
pect them to sacrifice their cause and submit to a
mere change of individuals in government
Mr.. Bryan has given out optimistic statements at
different times about the progress of the mediation
negotiations Niagara, and the judicious have
dered at his artless faith in the impossible The end
of this novel experiment in diplomacy now draws near
and may be asked what the administration is going
TO do next in carrying its watching and waiting

Noted Women Whose Birthday Is Yours
BY MARY MARSHALL.
JUNE 10
Elizabeth Mayo
Copyrighted 1914.

Elizabeth Mayo, whose birthday
falls on June IS, was one of the most
famous women educators in England
in the nineteenth century. She was
the English Madame Montessori of
her day. Most of the great educators
have been men, in spite of the fact
that teaching has always been con-
sidered one of the suitable profess
sionS for women, and Elizabeth
Mayo is all the more distinguished
because she gained distinction in a
field in which women seldom excel.
Elizabeth Mayo's brother, Charles
Mayo, was the English disciple of the
great Johann PestalozZi, who is
called the father-of modern peda-
gogy. Pestalozzi had established a
farm of "a hundred acres in SwitZer-
land, where he trained lot of poor or
phans entirely at his own expense,
and where he put into practise some
of his since-famous theories of edu-
cation. 1t was on this farm that
Pestalozzi wrote 1.-THE Fathers Jour-
nal" which is now a classic, and is
the basis for modern child study.
Charles Mayo visited Pestalozzi at
his farm in Switzerland and, fired
with enthusiasm. brought the ideas
back to England. -.s

While it is pleasing to believe in the ancient say
Ing that it is more blessed to give than to receive
recent developments of methods employed in the
conduct of certain organizations classed beneyo
lent tend to show that the benccient scope of charity
would broadened if the generously inclined would
only take the trouble to investigate whether or not
their bounties were worthily bestowed.
To discover that good deeds and good intentions
were misapped that persons objects sought to be
aided never profted in any degree from money its
equivalent charitably given, that instead, the gifts
were used for an entirely different purpose and not
of a charitable nature the creating of resent
ment and discourages the free giver
Instead of the open hand and free heart always
responding to sweet charitys beck and call there is
found the tight fist and frightened purse strings.
Thus charitys scope is narrowed and its power for
good materially lessened.
Goodness knows that there is enough misery and
misfortune in this world to the work and at
tenon the sympathetic and liberal-spirited, with
out the Intervention of impostors and unauthorized
charity collectors, to serve as handicap.
Exposures and disclosures of the operations of
pretentious institutions and associations do not
pear to serve as a sufficient warning to teach
proper lesson in caution. The generous woman
is usually trusting nature, and rather than turn
a deaf ear to a tale of will give the suppcant
the benefit of the doubt and contribute accordingly
This same nature changes when it is learned that
duplicity and deception have been practiced.
To checkmate fraud and for the promotion of
true charity, there should be rigid and thorough
investigation of every big for which appeals
made to public or private generosity and inquiry
into of lesser magnitude.
