GOING TO CANADA Is EASY
Dominion Government Says American
Travellers Suffer No inconvenience
or Annoyances.

Ottawa, Canada, July 10-Informa-
the Canadian government that many
American summer tourists DESTROYS of
visiting Canadian recreation places
are not doing so because of a fear of
CONSUMPTION into the Canadian mill
tary forces, and because of a seeming
ly general belief that Americans are
not permitted to visit Canada without
obtaining passports, and being sub
jected to the inconvenience of travel
found in the warning nations of Eu-
rope.
To correct this the government has
issued a statement to the effect that
there is no CONSUMPTION of any kind
in force in Canada other than that of
British-born subjects who would be
subject TO consumption if living in
England This would not apply to
anyone born in England who is now a
naturalized American citizen.
Canada is recruiting troops for
service in Europe, but recruiting Off
GERS are not permitted to solicit en-
listments from any but native or nat

Tourists or other travellers from the

kind other than the usual customs ex-
animation of baggage that has always
been customary Passports or other
official means of Identification are not
needed, but ii is suggested that those
born in foreign countries, and now
naturalized American citizens, carry
with them their certificates of natural

HITS AT EXPLORERS
PRESIDENT WILSON DISCUSSES
MEXICO IN ADDRESS AT
DETROIT.
SPEECH CHEERED BY CROWD
Executive Declares Against War With
Southern Republic - Hearers Say
They Favor Peaee-u. S. to Take
More Active Part in World Trade.

Detroit, Mich, July 12.-President
Wilson delivered an address at the
worlds craftsmanship congress here
on Monday. He urged that business
men carry justice and fair dealing
into the ports of the world, par
ticularly those of Mexico, and thereby
establish confidence in American prin-
ciples. His efforts, he declared, will
be to serve all America by serving
Mexico herself for her best interests
without using force, not to serve the
few gentlemen" who wish to exploit
Mexican possessions.
When the president asked the crowd
what it desired at the end of all the
present world troubles, it shouted
peace" in one voice and then he add
ed that his wish was permanent
peace"
i hear some men say" he said,
that they want to help Mexico, and
the way they propose to help her is
to Overwhelm her with force. That
is the wrong way as well as the long
way.
After fighting them you would have
nation full of justified suspicion.
Thus you would not help them. You
would shut every door against you.
What makes Mexico suspicious is
that she thinks we do not want to
serve, but possess her. And she has
justification for these suspicious in
the way some gentlemen have sought
to exploit her possessions.
81 will not serve those gentlemen,
but will serve all Americans by try
ing to serve Mexico herself.
1.-THE way to establish our sover-
eighty is to respect hers"
Mr.. Wilson declared that the mer-
chant marine which some are 80 slow
in giving u.s. will be a great help to
the business interests of the United
States.
In order TO gain foreign business,
however, he added, it will be neces-
Sary for American business men to
adapt the goods to the demands of
other countries and not try to force
their own ideas on other markets.
Great world changes which are TAX
ing place, the president declared, will
force the United States to take a more
active part in world trade in the fu-
ture.
Henry Ford, the manufacturer, sent
the president a message expressing
confidence that he would keep the
United States out Of war.

Des Moines Capital, Hugh Chalmers

born at first sight. Admiration and in
terest can be awakened and the hope
for future meetings.
That is an excellent beginning or
foundation for building up the tender
sentiment The next step or, rather,
the food for nurturipc he sweet and
tender passion, is companionship-th
magic influence of the charm of per-
sonality. Next-and of far greater i'm
portance than is accredited to it's al
lowing the thoughts to dwell constant
~ on the person one is subtly at
tracted to.
Tender thoughts woven into beauti-
fal day dreams which beget longings
are responsible for the mischief.
Thoughts are the sun rays which
cause the flower of love to burst forth.
The man who gives no thoughts to
love in the hours when he is alone and
has time to look into his own heart
and read the records there of the i'm
pressions each call upon a certain di-
vinity has made upon his susceptibility
is the man who is never quite sure if
he is really in love or not. Therefore
he is very careful about being non
committal
How could he be expected to tell
the young woman what the import of
his many calls is when he has got
nowhere in his calculation or hopes
He is of the class of men who are
laggards in loving and who waste
woman's time over lapse of years
to no purpose.
Every plant has an allotted time to
grow from its first inception to the
bursting forth of its perfected flower.
Love, the most beauteous, fragile, yet
sturdy plant of the heart, must go
through the same process. Some loves
never blossom, but die in the bud
through endeavoring to force them to
bloom too quickly. Men or women
may be impetuous by nature, but they
err when they pin their faith to the
belief that they have actually fallen
in love hastily and that it will last.

U. S.. NOTE TO MEXICO
AGREES TO TAKE UP DIFFER

Washington, July 10.-A note for
mally accepting Carranza's proposal
that differen""S between. the United

designate
The text of the note follows:
Mr.. Secretary: 1 have the honor
to acknowledge the receipt of your
courteous note transmitted to me by
Senior ArredondO on the 4th inst, in
which you refer to my notes of June 20
and June %, and to assure you of the
sincere qualification of my government
at the frank statement of the difficult
ties which have unfortunately arisen
In our relations along the information
al boundary, and the unreserved ex-
preston of the desire of your govern
ment to reach an adjustment of these
difficulties on a broad and amicable
basis. The same spirit of friendship
and of Soiicitude for the continuance
of cordial relations between our two
countries inspires my government
which equally desires an immediate
solution of the matters of difference
which have long vexed both govern
ments.
sit is especially pleasing to my
government that the de facto govern
ment of Mexico is disposed to give
quick as well as practical considera-
ton in a spirit of concord to the rem
edies which may he applied to the ex-
listing conditions. Reciprocating the
same desire, the government of the
United States is prepared immediate
ly to exchange views as to a practical
plan to remove finally and prevent
recurrence of the difficulties which
have been the source of the contro-
versy.
"'Accept, Mr.. Secretary, the re-
newed assurances of my highest con-
sideration. ! am, sir, yours very sim
cerely. ROBERT LANSING
The de facto government of Mexico
is not sure that it can protect the
American frontier from bandit raids.
Ambassador Designate Arredondo so
notified the state department And in
connection with that notification he
suggested that all American troops on
the border be unusually active.
The new position assumed by Gen
eral Carranza and his advisers was a
distinct relief TO the United States.
Orders Immediately were rushed to
the various commanders all along the
to keep their troops ready for any
eventuality.
