Publish Notes in Mexico City

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 14.-No com ment was available from official sources today on the United States note of July 22 warning the Carranza government of a radical change in policy if it continues to fail to protect Americans
 The American note and the Mexicon foreign offices reply were printed to- day by the newspapers in extra edi- tions without any editorial expressions. The two notes aroused much interest as the possibility of intervention in Mex fco has been widely discussed here in army circles for weeks.
 The newspapers were bought freely but no expressions that might indicate the attitude of the people were heard. Government officials did not discuss the subjects. The foreign office said there was nothing else for publication President Carranza has cancelled all enga gements because of Illness that confines him to bed The president was said to have suffered from over work and anxiety during his wife's illness

 Admit Dealings With Rebels
 The Association of Producers of Pe- troleum in Mexico admitted the truth of the charge made in the Mexican note that the petroleum companies had had dealings with the rebels headed by Manuel Palaez. in the Tampico district, but said that money was paid to Palez on the advice of Eliseo Arredondo am- bassador designate, and with the ac- auiescence of the state department.
 At the request of the state depart ment, it was learned today that repre- sentatives of the various American oil companies with property in Mexico met here this week and drafted a memo randum replying to charges made in a recent note presented at the depart ment by Ambassador Bonillas. The ambassador intimated in his note that the numerous payroll rooberies were perpetrated by the paymasters them- selves.
 "The paymasters of the companies are all known men of long association with the companies said the mem prandum, replying to this veil charge, and would not be serving as pay masters unless the company had thor Dugh confidence in their personal hon esty It is the belief of representatives of the companies that the insinuation contained in the note from the Mexican ambassador is entirely unjustified in tact
 The memorandum also asserts that until the coming of the Garranzista campaign into the oil country there was not single case of assault as sassination. robbery or even insult to any employe of any American company by the inhabitants of the oil producing region"
 The statement in the Mexican note made public today that the govern ment had promised to reimburse com panies for funds stolen from pay masters escorted by Carranza guards the oil companies contend was worded very vaguely and contained no direct obligation to refund stolen funds.

NO DAINTY DISHES SERVED
"coarse Fare" All That Is Offered to
Diners Who Celebrate the Birth
day Of Samuel johnson.

An unusual celebration is the din
ner in honor Of DR.. Samuel johnson,
most distinguished English writer OF
the eighteenth century, given for many
years on the anniversary of his birth
at Litchfe1d, where he was born In
100. Literary men from all over Eng
land assemble at the banquet and the
menu is always the same-the coarse
fare" beloved by the author.
Americans would call it square
meal with all the trimmings, for the
dishes specified are beefsteak pudding
with kidneys, haunch of mutton, oys-
ters and mushrooms, apple pie with
cream and toasted cheese, ale and
punch, to be followed by a dish OF
strong tobacco and church-warden
pipe for each surviving guest. This
is strong meat for strong man and
a Litchfield johnson dinner is always
stag affair." The house in st.
Mary's square where Johnson was
born is now museum and library OF
rare first editions of "Rasselas," the
"Adventurer," the dictionary, "Ram-
BIER and Johnson's political tracts
and poetical works. as well as about
30 different editions of Boswells
Life"

Onions a Disinfectant.

Much has been said about the vir-
tues of the onion, but few know of it's
use as a disinfectant.
An onion cut in half and set in a
room will attract to itself all manner
of germs. leaving the air sweet and
pure; it is therefore most valuable in
cases of infection. You should take
care, however, to burn the onion after
ward.
No part of an onion should ever
be used for domestic purposes after
having been allowed to lie about over
night The eating of raw onions is a
great personal protective in time OF
epidemic, and If taken with cucumbers
the breath is left innocent of any OBJ
jectionable odor.

MADE THE WORD MEAN MUCH
All the English Pretty Bulgarian I'm
derstood was London" but She
Gave 1t Decided Expression.

1t is curious that the name London
is more generally known the world
over than the name England is. In
commercial circles "London", stands
for most articles of English manufac-
ture. In all the East it represents ma
ton. The author of "Under the Red
Crescent" who was surgeon of the
Turkish army in 1877 found that in
the near East, no farther away than
Bulgaria, London" served to identify
him. 1t did even more than that
In conversational way, as he tells us
in his book.
My first landlord-who was land
lord in name only, for of course I
never paid him any rent-was Bull
garfan, he says, and his daughter was
one of the few pretty women that
ever saw in Bulgaria. Conversation
with her, however, was restricted by
our ignorance of each others Ian
guage, for I knew scarcely any Bull
garian, and the only word of English
that she could say was London"
Whenever saw that girl she would
show her white teeth with charming
smile, flash her big, black eyes, and
with beautiful irrelevance calculate:
"London!'
Whether she knew what London
meant cannot say, but her limited
vocabulary expressed more in its way
than the gushing phrases of many more
brilliant takers.
When she said London" with
bright air of welcome and frank
smile as I came home at night tired
out with my days work, knew that
she meant "Good evening, doctor! I
hope you haven't had very hard day
today; and see, here is your toast
and coffee ready"
When she uttered the word with
backward turn of the head and with a
pretty glance as she passed out OF
the door, it was very evident that she
was really saying: "Good night now.
DOCTOR! Pleasant dreams to you, and
I hope Russian shell won't find you
in the morning. Compan-
ion.

Bird club
Notes

During the recent blizzard the
birds had hard time and if the
weather had been cold as it usually
is after a snow storm many a little
songster would have died, as the
snow covered up their food and the
strong wind prevented them from
flight.
Food is what the birds need now,
food and shelter. They have CLEAN
ed the fields, meadows, and weed
patches until there is not much left
for them even when the weather is
good and many a little bird goes to
bed hungry.
/ am glad and I know the little
birds would be too, if they knew
that our boys and girls are doing
what they can for them. Every
crumb or bit Of grain helps some
little bird to get through the win
ter safely. Everyone can help. If
you have no shelf or box fixed up
for feeding, crumbs scattered on
the snow are eagerly picked up and
eaten.
The sparrows seem to be prepar-
ing for nest building. Sticks, straws
and dried grass are being carried
into the martin house, and by all
appearances house keeping will have
been in full swing long before the
martins appear III the spring.
Last year, the sparrows had pos
session Of the house when the mar
tins came. We were obliged to rout
the sparrows and clean out the
house before the martins could en-
ter it, for the sparrows had filled it
up with stick, leaves, straws and
feathers.

Dear Mother Thursday P. M.
$50 and will write you a few lines.
I'm going to write only few lines
too for I'm a little tired. We have
labored hard all day getting service
records fixed out for the men who
are leaving. From about 8 o'clock
this morning until just before I be-
gan writing to you l have sat at
the typewriter and written or either
dictated to the other fellow. When
the one at the typewriter got tired
then we'd change around. | am
sleepy too and you can bet your
life that I'm going to bed mighty
soon too.
Had letter from Leila today. |
guess you haven't been getting the
letters that I've written for at least
she hadn't. You can go on the
date that iseone thing sure. | don't
pay any attention to that until I
hear that the letters have been re-
ceived or I've received the ones
you've written. just here the 9th
er day | got letter written Octo-
Der 18th. Think Of that, I had been
getting my December mail then.
Got a letter from Daddy Jacobsen
too. He wrote it from Des Moines
at Xmas time. 1t certainly did
seem grand to get squint at his
own handwriting once again. Eve
rything was lovely at home but the
Flu epidemic had just gone out. He
asked about Dude? When it's the
one usually its meant for the two
of us, united we stand, but divided
we fall. Son and l each are getting
US a new suit to wear around while
over her. Mother, don't look fol
us until October or November. W.
are stuck here for about seven OF
eight months at the earliest. We
are here in the main camp so yor
know what that is. I'm not going
to go to Russia either. I don't fig
ure that that army will be there
long so | hate to transfer out of oul
original Company. We have {
dandy bunch and an A-No. Hos
pita1, an excellent Rep. of the Amer
lean Red Cross. They do every
/ thing for us. This is the only home
we have and hate to lose it.
The fellows are still working but
I'm going ty bed. Will write later
but in closing extend my hearty
regards to all our beloved friends
and companions.
