MEXICO GETS STRONG
NOTE ON KIDNAPPING
Preparing to Meet Any Emergen-
cy That May Arise as a Result
of Latest Border Incident.

Washmgton.-The United States
government has Officially notified Pres.
ident CarranZa of Mexico that ii views
the situation, which has arisen as the
result Of the capture by Mexican
bandits of Lieutenant Paul Fl. Davis
and Harold G. Peterson of the Air
Service, and the holding Of these young
officers for $4,000 ransom, as Il most
serious matter, and one that demands
"ouick action" on the part Of the Car.
rama government.
1t was learned on high authority
that the note which the state depart
ment has sent to Carranza, regarding
the case of Lieutenants Davis and
Peterson, is one Of the strongest this
government has ever transmitted to
foreign power. Furthermore, it was
ascertained from the same high source
that the war department is proceed
ing Just as vigorOusly-in the matter aS
is the department of state and is pre-
pairing to meet any situation that may
arise as a result of the Candelaria in
cident.
Up to this time Secretary Of War
Baker and General March, Chief Of
Staff, have made no public utterance
regarding the matter, but tlJt both
realize the incident is one demanding
most serious consideration on tie part
of the authorities is well known.
The department of Stale received q
telegram from the American embassy
in Mexico City which brought the Lews

Orioin of Neck Shaving.

A study of the many necks to be
seen on the walls Of the National Por-
trait gallery enables me to state that
the custom of neck shaving, although
said to have been recently imported
from America, was undoubtedly known
and most likely popular in the days OF
Agincourt.
The portrait of Henry V. shows quito
clearly that his neck was shaved, and
if the king did it 1t must have been
fashionable.
Most Americans have their necks
shaved, and in one Of Jack London's
novels, the hero, teamster, on strike.
points out to his wife that he must
patronize the barber because he can.
not possibly shave his own neck -
