knife of jealousy went into Gloria's

Those eyes of his had been perhaps a
little too winning.

The critics Of the administration who
carped much over the sending Of the
Pershing expedition into Mexico are now
IN the ranks Of those who are outraged
at its withdrawal. There are always
those who are NOT going to be pleased no
matter what the administration may do.
But fortunately, President Wilson is not
one TO worry about the criticisms of his
political enemies. The Pershing expedi-
tson was Sent into Mexico, because a
bandit army under the arch bandit, Villa,
had invaded this country and attacked
an dlooted an American town, massacre
ing IFS citizens and destroying their prop
erty. Mexico seemed helpless and unable
to check the bandits or to prevent the
growing taaditry along the border. The
only recourse for this country was 10 send
a.pumtive expedition after the outlaws TO
capture or punish them. ~ well as Ia put
a stop 10 their depredaiions upon Ameri-
can territory.
As q result of the Pershing expedition.
banditry has been stopped along our bor-
der, q there Is good reason 10 believe
that. although the Pershing army did no.;
