MALTA TO GUARD
MEXICAN BORDER

National guardsmen of three States,
Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, were
called out by President Wilson Tuesday
to aid in protecting the border against
Mexican raiders.
In addition practically all remaining
mobile troops of the regular army were
ordered to join the border forces. By
these orders approximately 5000 ad.
ditional troops were placed under Major
Gen. Funston's command. Behind the
orders is the plain intimation by admin,
istration officials that the whole strength
of the National Guard will be similarly
employed if necessary.
The orders were issued after bret
conference between President Wilson
and Secretary Baker over a joint re-
port from Gems. Scott and Funston, AT
FL Paso. The two officers stated that
the Glenn Springs raid made it plain
that the border guard must be mater.

MOTHERS DAY.

The second Sunday in May is Moth
er's Day. This year it falls on May H.
The beautiful thought Of setting aside
one day in the year to be devoted . to
ones mother was first suggested by
Miss Anna Jarvis, of Philadelphia. who
founded the Mothers Day international
Association to provide the necessary
organized support for the fostering of
the movement. Thanks largely to her
efforts Mothers Day has become a re-
cognized institution as the, day on which
each Of US should pause to acknowledge
our debt Of affection and gratitude to
the pest mother who ever lived" on
which we should be with her if We can
and if We unfortunately cannot. should
make point of sending her a message
OF affection and cheer.
In cooperation with the effort to fos-
ter the observance of Mothers Day,
the Western Union Telegraph Company
has provided special telegraph blanks,
appropriately decorated with an artistic
design of carnatlon and bearing the
legent Mothers Day, on which all
messages of those who wish to send a
word of greeting or love to their moth
ers on this occasion will be delivered.
II we cannot be with her on May IA,
let US remind her in this way that she
is still with US in heart and love.
The emblem of the day is the white
carnation, and it is the hope of the
Mothers Day Association that it will
be worn by every one as a tribute Of
respect, not only for his own mother,
but also for all the gentle and noble
motherhood of the land.

BETTER SCHOOL
ATTENDANCE

The compulsory school attendance
law, it is believed, has been made eirec-

laws and approved by Governor A. o.
Stanley. Under the provisions of the
old fine was all that could be placed
as penalty against a person who fail
ed to comply with its provisions but
the present law makes the ofrense a
misdemeanor and the parent or guardi-
an NAV be sent to Jail to serve out the
fine for non-psYment. 1t is thought
that the school attendance will be i'm
