The boys, during the last week have
built fine tennis court for the use of
the school, on Pearl street, in the rear of
the bungalow belonging to Mrs. Kinds.
The work of soliciting additions to the

splendidly. The girls of the class of
1915 have promised a complete set of the
works of R. L. Stevenson; the girls of the
class of 1913 will probably present a
Shakespeare; and others are coming.

.REDCROSS W|[LPUSH
MEXICAN RELIEF PLANS
President Wilson Urges That There
Be No Slackening in Efforts for
Southern Republic.

President Wilson, before leaving
Washington yesterday for Cornish. n.
H., at a conference with officials of the
American Red Cross Society. expressed
the opinion that the work of aiding the
Mexican non-combatants should be con-
tinued by the Red Cross notwithstanding
the fact that under present conditions
1t has been found almost impossible TO
carry on this work satisfactorily He
told the officials that he did not think
1t would be proper for the Red Cross to
discontinue its work in the southern re-
public.
In conference with the President were
Ernest p Bicknell. director of the Red
Cross: Brig. Gen C. A. Devol, general
manager. and Miss Mabel Z. Boardman.
They told the President all that has
been done by the Red Cross since he is
sued his proclamation calling upon the
American people to aid the suffering
Mexican non-combatants. The President
was impressed with the report and the
need for continuing this relief work.
Gen Devol and Miss Boardman de-
tailed to the President the difficulties
that now made it impossible to get
food supplies to Mexico City. including
military operations along the railroad
line to Vera Cruz: the failure of the
Mexican factions to cooperate in the
relief work and the impossibility of
buying food supplies in Mexico, although
such supplies are being exported by
military authorities. who reap the ben
emit of an export tax
The President said Miss Board
man. said he recognized that there
still was need in Mexico. and that the
Red Cross should continue to do ev-
erything it could to get relief into the
country. He said it would not be prop
er for the Red Cross to discontinue its
work, and that we should keep on pre-
pairing for a time when conditions for
transporting food might improve and
to get In wherever we could.
We have six carloads of provisions
for Mexico City ready whenever we
can find way to get them in. 1t fs
useless to send them to Vera Cruz, be
cause there is no place to store the
food there"
Miss Boardman told the President
that $4,000 had been collected for
Mexican relief as the result of the
Presidents proclamation, and that s26,
600 already had been expended.
The President did not suggest any
action that might be taken by the
United States to improve the situation
imm I'd lately, it was stated
Following their conference with the
President. Red Cross officials began to
formulate plans to continue their work
Extra ordinary efforts will first be made
to get food into Monclova. a point they
have been seeking to reach for some
time.
The Carranza agency issued a state
ment answering a recent assertion by
Gen. Devol that both CarTanza and
Villa had been engaged in the ex-
portation of foodstufYs from Mexico
and profting from proceeds of heavy
export tax This charge was declared
to be false in so far as territory under
control of the constitutionalist gov
eminent is concerned
