The hat that goes with it should also

she had had since her freshman year.
But the suit was n!wars carefully

party gowns, of white crepe de chine

Americas Queen.

They tell us of little queen who
rules in every home. The little wife,
think they mean who sits upon the
throne. She is a little queen indeed.
She rises with the sun and tends to
every want and need from dad down
to the little one. She washes, irons,
and scrubs and cooks. She makes the
beds and sweeps. She has no time to
read good books. She sews while baby
sleeps. She wades knee deep through
mud and dew to milk the cow and feed
the pig. She goes into the garden, too,
and helps the hired man dig. Any old
thing will do for ma. She takes what
ever's left and hustles round to see
that pa gets nothing but the best. Her
feeble voice is seldom heard in protest
or in self defense, for if she dares to
speak q word some one will say she
has no sense. A slave, l think they'd
better say, a prisoner in for life the

LAND OF THE PEONS
Mexico's laborers Her Greatest Treas
ure.

Save the poems first. They are the
great Mexican property that deserves
first attention." says E. S. Martin, in
Life. That is what a great many
Americans are beginning to think. And
| it is for this reason that President
Wilson repeatedly says that we have
| no quarrel with the Mexican people.
But, says Life, if we have to fight, the
one great cause worth fighting for in
Mexico is the cause of the common
people. 1.-The people, the common
people of Mexico are what is import
ant. If something that may be called
constitutional government will help
the mass of the Mexicans- protect
them. give them education, give them
back their land, keep thieves and ty-
rants off Of them-then constitutional
government is important.
The thousand millions or less
that citizens of the United States have
invested in Mexican properties, the
hundreds of millions that citizens OF
other countries have invested there
are important in precisely the degree
that the protection of them makes for
the welfare of the Mexican people"
Life agrees with Representative
William Kent of California, "a man Of
character and probity; the congress-
man from the coast that saw the hon
or of the United States bigger than
the immediate interests Of the coast
and voted for the repeal Of the canal
tolls repeal bill" Mr.. Kent has lived
Mexicans 1.-The kindest-hearted peo-
pie in the world" Life says Mr.. Kent
calls them, barring the barbarism and
the influence of their antecedents
which make them backward" or the
rich Mexicans with whom he was as
sociated he does not speak so we'll: "A
more useless gang of crooks I never
met. They have no regard whatever
for their common people" Villa is the
man, Mr.. Kent says, "the one strong
man down there"
Continuing it's own comment in the
vein followed by Mr.. Kent, Life says:
What we want to do for the Mexi-
can masses, is not to give them per-
manent government of superior people
who will take their orange and give
them back the rind but a government
of Mexicans for Mexicans; by Mexi-
cans who are fit to govern or who can
be helped to become so. That Is our
job if we ever have any job there. Ev-
erything else is subordinate to it.
Peonage, as it has existed, must go.
The Roman civilization was based on
slavery and finally crumbled. No CIV
ilization can prosper on slavery or on
anything so much like it as Mexican
peonage. Mexico, properly assisted
and developed, will yield all the bless
ed fruits of civlliZation-money, mar
kets. dividends, newspapers, railroads,
millionaires, trade unions, strikes, suf
frage agitation, the 1. w. W., plumb
ing, palaces, baseball and everything
that keeps us happy and discomfort.
But the MeXicans must be helped to get
these blessings for themselves and to
defend them. And the first help pos
sible for them seems to be land for
