"Help Yourself by Helping Others"

Chairman Jack Phillips of the commits sary'committee. visited the fairgrounds $ yesterday and inspected the situation carefully at that point. They decided to serve the old soldiers under the grand stand, as that is the most convenient place for the restaurant. The inspec- tion was very satisfactory to MT. Brown and MT. Phillips, both of whom said that the food problem was solved and that the guests of the city would feel perfectly at home and would be comfortable at the fairgrounds.
 It was announced yesterday that through the efforts of Chairman Brown Mrs. John B. Reid had been prevailed upon to take charge of the sleeping quarters at the fairgrounds. She will be matron in charge. Mrs. Reid will start to work immediately and it is certain that the sleeping quarters for the old soldiers will be the best ever offered them. In addition to Mrs. Reid, Sam H. Fowlkes, secretary of the Busi- ness Mems league. will be on duty at the fairgrounds during the reunion and will assist in seeing that everything runs smoothly for the old soldiers.

EDUCATIONAL RALLY AT CLOSING SESSION
 OF NEGRO BAPTISTS
Negro Sunday School Workers Hold Successful Meeting at the
 Beulah Baptist Church

The session of Negro Baptist Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. workers, which has been converting here the past week at the Beulah Baptist church, will come to a close this afternoon after an educa- tional rally for the schools of the de- nomination. At this meeting. Christian Education and Its Influences in the Church." will be the chief topic for dis cussion.
 The young people of the church and their rights to important places or places of responsibility was urged by the Sunday school missionary, Dr. Galloway of Selma, in his address Friday afternoon. At a request that each Sunday school mem- Der in the Birmingham district give not less than 3 cents for the Birmingham Baptist college at Riley station, a large sum of money was raised for that school, as well as a large donation to Selma university, a school maintained and con- trolled by the negro Baptists of the state, as result of an appeal from Dr. A. F. Owens of Selma, acting for President Gilbert of the school, who could not be present.
 The sessions throughout were well at- tended and according to the reports com- ing from the delegates present a new awakening to church and Sunday school duty is taking place throughout the state. Spiritually, financially and intellectually the meetings were regarded as a suc- cess.

Advice
From Judge.

From Judge.
 Advice is a yelled but egotisttcal at- tempt, to show your neighbor how you surpass him intellectually. It is magni- flying glass which you hand to him, after which you make certain that you are standing at the proper focal distance. <
 Advice Is also used as a sugar coating for criticism, as a diplomatic method of checking offensive conduct. and as a pastime.
 There are two classes of people ebullient with desire to give advice; those who .have had experience and those who have not.
 A request for advice Is usually a subtle form of f1attery or else a method of lodging responsibility.
 The person who is wise enough to take good advice and the one who is too wise to give it generally tic the knot of per- feet friendship.
 Advice is a drug on the market. The principal reason why the supply exceeds the demand is because those who need the most take the least
 Advice should never be followed. If 1t is good advice, it cannot be followed The only advice which is good is that which drives you.

Columbus, N. M., April S.-Forty trailers for trucks in operation between Colum- bus and Casas Grandes were put in com mission here today.

 Which means that our ads have given her the idea that the Wonderful is a sick woman's corset.

BAKER RE|TERATES DENIAL OF REPORT OF
 ABANDONING HUNT
Purpose of Expedition Was Stated When It Started and Has Not Been
 Changed, He Says

washington. April S.-Secretary Baker, informally denying that immediate With drawal from Mexico of the American eX- peditionary force was contemplated, in- dicated that the war department had in formation that the United States troopers were close upon Villas trail. and that the expedition might soon accomplish it's purpose.
 "The purpose of the expedition was stated when it was undertaken, said Secretary Baker. Tt has never been changed. No other orders have been given and the expedition is busily pur- suing it now with what I hope is a fair chance of early completion.
 Reports that the withdrawal was under way were declared by Mr Baker to have absolutely no basis" All the war depart ments plans for pursuing the chase were going forward actively, he declared, an order being placed only today for 15 gas oline-carrying motor trucks for General Pershing's campaign. The American forces were pushing ahead,' he said
 
 original army order to cross the border a month ago revealed that no spec1hc direction to capture or kill Villa was in cluded. The order, made public by Major General Scott, chief of staff, stated that the work of the United States troops would "be regarded finished as soon as Villas band or bands are known to be 1 broken up," and that the Americans would withdraw "as soon as the de facto government of Mexico is able to relieve them of this work"
 FUNSTON NOT THROUGH Secretary Baker said General Funston 1 had not yet reported that the American expedition's object had been attained. It | was recalled that on the day troops crossed, Secretary Baker said their ob- | ject was to Capture or disperse' the bandits who raided Columbus.
 | Secretary Lansinc also issued state ment today, saying he knew of no inten- 1 tion to withdraw the troops. He said no intimation had come that the Car rarza government thought General Persh- l ing had accomplished his mission and should return to United States territory | It was stated officially today that Gen. ] eral F'unston's orders were broad enough
