Washington, Dee. 29- Continuation e' the conference Of the Mexican American joint commission without regard to he question Of wlthdrawiag American troops rom Mexico. is pr5- posed by General Carranza in his mas sage refusing to ratify tho Atlantic City protocol Coupled with this sue eestion. however, is a new appeal for recall 'of the Pershing expedition and a declaration that sIch action by tha United States would permit adjust mont of all remaining questions within g week.
 There were indications tonight tha the American members ol the com mission might be disposed to comply with the request for further confer ehces on the ground that the United states had nothing 10 lose by doing 90 It was officially stated that not1- ing Yet had occurred to alter the po.- ley Cf the administra ion toward Mex. ico and it is generally understood that 70 long as northern Mexico is i1 it's present unsettled state Pershias's men will stay where they are.
 A copy of the CarranZa communal cation, about which there was less secrecy today. was sent to Presidcn. Wilson Secretary Lane communicat ed with Dr J R Mott and Judge George Gray the other members Of the American commission. and then announced that they would meet here Tuesday to determine whether fur ther conferences hall be called to discuss the various questions at issue ether than the withdrawal of Amert can troops Or whether the attitude ar Carranza has made it impossible for the joint commission to continue is work
 Carranza points ont in his reply that there was nothing il the cores rondence that led to .he creation # the commission nor in the credentials and instructions delivered to it's mem hers that would preclude considera- tion of the many other subjects which the commission made incidental C those agreed upon in the .rotocol. ll effect, he suggests that the protoco be laid aside tor the present and the work of the commission be directed along fresh channels.
 Although the conditions imposed for withdrawal Of the troops were not to his liking, he attempted to make it clear that his chief obpectiou to ratifying the documents was net bas- ed upon conditions but upon the fact that he ooHid not consciously sign anything which would place him 4 the position of having a. peared 10 sanction even for brief time the presence in Mexico for foreign troops.

MOTHERS ooNGREss CORNER.
LEARNING FROM THE CHILDREN.

LEAhNlNG FROM THE CHILDREN.
Every child that grows up in true
home is constant teacher" says DR.. j.
X. Miller in one of his books.
What lessons our children teach us
We know that fretful, peevish, cranky
child is not a well child We know
that all normal, healthy children are
happy and contented. When our little
ones are irritable, fretful, exacting with
out cause, therefore, we do not blame
them until we have searched for the
cause of such unnatural conduct and,
usually, we find that there is something
/ physically wrong with the child. Its
digestion is out of order 1t has con-
tracted some disease which is beginning
to assert itself The child is i'll or suf-
fering in some way. We do not blame
the child for its actions then. We con
slider the cause and We are very patient
aud tender.
What charity this gives us for our fell
lowmen A parent who thus under
stands the character and actions of a
child comes to apply motives and causes
for conduct to other persons. That
cranky old man next door, who is so
cross to the children, is really poor
old dyspeptic, disappointed, lonely old
fellow, for whom We have now only pity
and a desire to help. That fretiul, nag
ging woman across the way, whose voice
is so shrill and harsh, We know now is
only poor, tired nervous woman work
| ing beyond her strength. We pity and
we try to help her where, before, we
| perhaps criticized and blamed Oh our
| children teach us to understand human
nature, to pity, to be kind by Anne

FIRE IN THE WIND
GAVE GAME PRESERVE

Last Monday as Amos smith was GO
ing to Hot Springs he noticed smoke
IN the Wind Cave Game pasture. On
investigation he found that lightning
had set fire TO tree, and the tree burn
ing down had set fire to the grass. He
Immediately notified the warden and
supervisor, through the courtesy of Percy
wilkins, who came along in bis car just
at this time going to the Cave The
warden Immediately set out for the
scene of the fire, and Mr.. Brazell follow
ing with the necessary tools was soon on
the ground. Within two hours the ire
was well under control having burned
over the space of about ten acres. The
damage done was trivial, but had it not
been for the dampness caused by the
rain the day before, and the cool head
of the supervisor, it might have been
serious.

DAILY ROAD REPORTS
Reports of Road Conditions in the Black
Hills District to be Published
and Posted Daily.

The matter of securing, publishing
and posting daily reports of road condi-
tions in the Black Hills district, discuss
ed at the last meeting of the Commercial
Club Secretaries association, has been
taken up by Secretary Thorpe of the
Lead Commercial Club with the Nebras-
ka Telephone company, with a view to
securing the cooperation Of that corpor-
alton. From present indications, it is
assumed that the telephone company
will be able to assist in the work and it
is recognized that their aid will be una
terial.
The gathering of road conditions will
be effected through a number of agen-
cies, principal among which is the ma
tional forest service, whose Offices at
Deadwood and Custer secure daily re-
ports from their forest rangers and other
connections throughout the districts Of
both forests. 1t is also proposed to Sc
cure reports from all cities in the Black
Hills district and from these sources of
information, which will be systematized
and made reliable, the daily reports will
be compiled
Copies Of the reports will be furnished
the daily newspapers for immediate pub
lication and other copies will be posted
in the principal hotels of every Black
Hills city, for the benefit of tourists and
others. The plan received the approval
Of the Secretaries association and it is
believed that the cooperation of the
various sources of information can be
readily secured Lead Cali.
