Eastern Star Tender
Shower to Miss Shelburne

Alice Chapter Order Eastern
Star entertained with a miscel-
laneous shower complimentary
to Miss Louise Shelburne Friday
evening at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. R. Drackett. The house
was beautifully decorated with
daisies and ferns. In the parlor
a clothes line was suspended,
and all the pretty gifts were
hung on the line and pinned
with clothe pins. The room was
in darkness and all guests were
invited in the parlor and the
lights turned on. With few
well chosen words, Mrs. Drack-
EFT asked Mr.. Goldman to escort
Miss Shelburne into the room.
She was taken so by surprise
that it made it impossible for
her to say anything. A basket
decorated with ferns and daises
held the gifts when they were
taken from the line to be taken
home. Miss Shelburne thanked
the members of her Chapter
for their thoughtfulness in
words filled with feeling and
happiness.
After dancing and listening
to vocal and instrumental music,
the hostess invited all to the
dining room, where a pot luck
lunch was served. The hour
came too soon to bid all good
night. Miss Shelburne will be
greatly missed at our Chapter
room. She will be married Tues
day to Mr.. Outlaw of Birming-
ham.

has been assured. the troops OF my

From these statements it is clear
that Mexico was not INVADED in a

agreement between the United

leo to the effect that the troops of
either country may be used as a po-
lice force in border territory of the

from irresponsible marauders of the
Villa type. Secretary Bakers state
ment concerning the situation is an
accurate summary Of the signifi-
canoe of the crossing of the border
by American troops. There is" the
Secretary said, mo possibility of a
misunderstanding between the Re-
public of Mexico and the United
States with regard to the protection

Mexican Bandits Must
Stay in Mexico

1t is now stated authoritative in
official circles at Washington that
there is no explicit understanding
between President Carranza and the
United States to the effect that the
troops of either country may cross
the border in the event of raids by
irresponsible marauders. When the
American troops under General Err
win crossed into Mexico the, other
day, after the Vililst:s had fired re-
peatedly into Ell Paso, it was sup.
posed that the action was taken in
accordanc with such understanding.
the existance of which has for sever
al years past been persistently re-
ported.
Now, there is q protest from Mex
leo. General Candida Aguilar. the
son-in-law of President Caranza. who
is now on a special mission from
the Mexican Government to Wash
ington, says that the crossing of the
border by American troops was "a
violation of Mexican sovereignty"
His statement reads as follows:
"The Mexican Government has
not asked, nor will it ask, the aid of
American troops to fight Villa, or
sny' other bandits. General Fran
cisco Gonzales did not ask the as
sistance of the United States soldiers
who entered Ciudad Juarez.
"The Government and the people
of Mexico consider as violation of
Mexican sovereignty the crossing
of the United States soldiers into
Mexican territory. 1t is hoped that
the situation created by the latest oc-
currences in Juarez will be satisfac-
torily adjusted between the two
countries.
President Carranza's government
is strongly endeavoring to put an
end, as soon as possible, to the ac-
tivities of the Mexican rebels and
to guarantee the lives and properties
of foreigners and Mexicans residing
in Mexico"
1t is doubtless true that the Mex
lean General Gopzales did not ask
American aid, but undoubtedly most
feel that the acts and at
titude of the Villistas fully justified
the action taken The firing Of the
shots into FL Paso constituted a vi
olation of American territory which
could not be ignored. 1t apparently
presagd another raid similar to that
at Columbus in 1916, and it called
for immediate and vigorous action.
The necessity for such action is to
be deplored but, if the Carranza
government wishes us to keep our
troops within our borders, it must
keep Mexico's bandits and their bull
lets on the other side of the inter-
national boundary line.

Well-posted baseball men here to-
day expressed the belief that when

Asked regarding reports that the
faction to which he belongs had been
approached by peace makers, the
colonel remarked:
I'VE have heard Indirectly that 10

owners that the matter should and

he has no feeling of animosity toward
anyone and deplores the unpleasant
situation in the league.
