ever witnessed John Does will. Maybe
one of them is dead and the other cant
remember. But say they are both living,
and neither can remember-what then?
Is Does will void because they can't re-
member? Not at all. The law-statute
law in some States, decisions in others
says they don't have to remember-nor
in fact do they have to live. There is the
advantage of the attestation clause. The
attestation clause was built for witnesses
who cannot remember or who do not live.
And when, on Does death, Noakes and
Stiles attend before the surrogate's clerk
and scratch their heads, all they have to
do is to recognize their signatures, then
be able to swear that the name Noakcs
was signed by Noakes and the name Stiles
by Stiles. The law does the rest The
law says it will presume that the state
ment contained in the attestation clause
is correct, and it probates John Does
will. And if the witnesses be dead, it
takes proof of the correctness of their sig
natures and of Johns.
1t has been suggested that John Doe
sidesteps making his will because of the
expense But he sidesteps it for other
reasons. Death is happening never
contemplated, and never imminent.
There is always plenty of time to prepare
for death-and wills and death go to-
gether. Hence, John Doe, failing woe
fully to realize the Importance of the thing,
delays it. He may seek life insurance
eagerly; but he is apathetic about his will.
Lawyers Often Fail to Leave Wills
John DOE is not alone in this. 1t is a
notorious fact that lawyers-the very
class that understands the necessity of the
ng-frequently fail to leave wills. 1t
is so easily done that it is never done.
John Doe is in good company if he fails
to make his will. 1t is a very human weak
ness, that failure; but that failure may
constitute a serious mistake.
If he acquire riches, will then may be
desirable; but it is not essential. There
are just as many family fights with will
as without one. If he thinks wills belong
exclusively to big estates, he suffers under
grievous error.
If he dies poor, he needs one III aigAty bad.
A word in Johns ear: Better have
lawyer draw your will. The simple form
herein may suit you. But if you come to
vary it. you enter unknown territory. An
ounce of prevention is worth pound of
cure.

If the Witnesses Die

THEREFORE,, since his neighbors
Noakes and Stiles have underwritten
him in the aforementioned manner, John
Doe doesn t die at once. When he does die,

but should not be persons interested in
the will as legatees or devisees. If he
were to give Tom Noakes legacy of one
hundred dollars, and Tom Noakes were
witness to the will, and after Does death
were compelled to testify to it's execution,
he would lose his legacy. That is why
neighbors are suggested as witnesses.
They are not usually legatees.
The scene is now set. In the room to-
gether are John Doe, the testator, and the
two or three proposed witnesses. 1t is not
necessary that the witnesses should read
the will. They have nothing to do with the
contents of the withholding whatever.
John Doe, having laid down his pen to
call his neighbors, now takes it up again.
They look on. John fills in the date. He
then signs his name opposite the seal.
Legally he subscribes his name, which
means that he signs at the end of the will.
That first clause is his will. He signs at
its end. The word seal" or a.. S. takes
care of the sealing" referred to in the at
testation clause. Follow the attestation
clause and see that John does this right.

One Slip May Be Fatal
HAVING thus subscribed and sealed his
- will, when the two were with himin the
room and when they were looking on,
John now makes two vital utterances,
without which a will is absolutely void
Follow this carefully. He says to his two
witnesses, "This is my last will, and then
adds to them, 81 want you to sign as wit
| neSses."
He must declare ii to be his 'riH, and he
must ask them TO sign as Witnesses. If he
fail in that, his will is absolutely void.
| You now see that he has declared it as his
last will. He has done it in presence of
his witnesses. He has requested them to
sign as witnesses. He has done his part.
1t is now up to them. They, then, when
he is still present, and they are both pres
ent, sign their names as witnesses and add
their addresses. OF course it is not posi-
BILE for all to sign literally "at the same
time; but that phrase in the attestation
clause indicates merely that the execution
of the will takes place practically as one
transaction. The testator waits until
both sign. Noakes waits until Stiles is
through He doesn't rush out as soon as
he has signed his own name. Let all three
remain present until the trick is done.
The net result,-John Doe has made a
valid will.
At any rate, his will will serve for a
great majority of States in the Union.
Add three witnesses instead of two, and
physically atfix a seal, and it is good gen
orally throughout the United States
| The specific directions here set forth are
given with the laws of many of the princi-
pal Eastern States in mind. Doe has
made his will, and it hasn't cost him a
| cent.
1t is wise for the witnesses to read the
"attestation clause, and to charge their
minds with the fact that it is true,-that
they followed all its detail in the eXecu-
ton of the will.
Having made his will, John Doe nat
urally expects to drop dead next day.
AS a matter of fact, he probably lives for
years. a well known old practitioner
down on Wall Street-upon the occasion
dresses his clients thus:
"1ou know, Sir, the making of your
will is really life insurance; the best life
insurance, really, that you can obtain. :"
If the Witnesses Die
THEREFORE,, since his neighbors
Noakes and Stiles have underwritten
him in the aforementioned manner, John
Doe doesn't die at once. When he does die,

 TELLS OF OUTRAGE.
 At first hand knowledge Wiley tells of an outrage which is merely con firmatory of others reported during the past few months The Bisbee man tells of being in one of the principai stores during the occupation of the city by Obregon He says that while in there three officers of the army drove up to the store in automobile dismounted and entered They look ed around and beckoned to three girl clerks.
 They then forcibly took the girls from behind the counters the women screaming for help. They were haul. led to the waiting automobile and hur ried away Nothing, apparently, wa done to prevent the outrage.
 Another case in point occurred when Obregon invested the city ] Many hundreds of orphan girls, be tween the ages of three and eleven 1 had been given asylum in the Joseph ! ina College The structure in whict they were housed was located on the ! street called San Francisco de la Tran. | lt was three stories in height and the two upper floors were occupied by the orphans and their care takers, the sis ters. When Obregon entered the city 1 he turned all of these orphans into the strets and told the populace Co help themselves of what remained ! The "Obrearas". some of the popula- ton. entered the building and when
 through nothing remained of what had been a providence for homeless ana parenlieSS children.
 THE FATE OF SUPPLIES. ! In commenting on the fate of tho supplies sent into Mexico Wiley de- clares that he doubts if any of them ever reach their ultimate destinations. namely the poor of Mexico He saya 1 that while waiting for the transport at Vera Cruz an American was dis charging a cargo of supplies at the
 wharf. On the other side another boat, requisitioned by Carranza was Ireloading the supplies to be sold for the relief Of the Carrabza treasury. !, This was seen by practically all of the foreigners who made the trip
 WHAT TO Do.
 Wiley, like the majority of foreign Iers in Mexico, declares that there is one solution of the problem-intervea tioE or some step which will elimin- ate all factions. Mexico is in a ter riblo state, the people are destitute and the armies are marching oyer everything and everybody without any . idea cf what the ultimate end win be. ! The traveller expects to remain in ! Bisbee some time. He may locate here pending a readjustment of con ditions in Mexico.
