Be a booster for your home
town. If you have nothing
to boost but a store and post
office, be a booster just the
same. Ifyou let people know
OF the great opportunities your
town offers, they will sit up 10
take notice and finally see
that you are right. There is
no town, however small, but
has some advantages. No
town but what would be a
good location for a factory or
a mill of some kind.

Praises Loyalty of Native
Mexicans in Protecting
Oil Wells at TampicO

WASHINGTON, May 22.-Loyalty
of Mexican natives, who were left in
charge of oil wells at Tampico and
Panuco after the foreign operators
fled from the danger zone, was re-
sponsible for preservation of the prop
critics, according to r. A. Mestes, an
official of the International Petroleum
Company, whose report on conditions
in the oil district has been forwarded
to the state department.
Mestes recently returned to Tam
pico with five Amrican employees.
They made an exploration of the
wells at Panuco, also, and found that
they had suffered only minor damage,
dut to depredations by strugglers
after the fleeing Federals had evacu-
ated the town. Mestes lauded the
fidelity of the Mexican employees,
who guarded the properties during
the conflict between Constitutionalists
and Federals at Tampico.
American Consul Canada has re-
ported that there now are 554 Amer
lean refugees at Vera Cruz who have
announced their intention to remain
in Mexico.
Consul Canada also reports ITO ref
ugees arriving from the south on the
city of Tampico. Twentyfour of
these are Americans, fourteen Porto
Ricans and the other of various ma
tionalities. All the Americans were
placed on board the Monterey, which
sailed via Puerto Mexico for the
United States May Fl.
