No Region in All North America
More Widely Misunderstood,
Says Writer.
TRIP FULL OF CONTRASTS
No Section of BorderIand Has Seen So
Much of Adventure, Tragedy and
Turbulent Activity as State
of Texas.

Washington, d. C.-"No region in
all North America is more frequently
mentioned or more widely misunder-
stood, perhaps. than the Mexican Dor
der" writes Frederick Simpich, for
merly American consul at Nogales,
Mexico, to the National Geographic So
ciety.
From the Gulf Of Mexico up to FL
| Paso, along the Texas frontier, the
Rio Grande forms the boundary be-
tween the United States and Mexico !;
thence to the Pacific coast the line is
marked by stone or iron monuments
(save short break at the Colorado),
so set that one is supposed to be WIS.,
ible from another. By this plan a
soldier, miner or cowman Eyes, and
smuggler, too) can always tell which
side of the line he is on; or, If wholly
lost and he comes suddenly on a mon
ument, he can soon get oriented.
Adventurous, colorful and full of
contrasts as 1t Is, the 1,S00 mile trip
along this crooked, historic line Is
rough and difficult, and has been made
by few people.
1.-THE Rio Grande part of this Dor
der has caused both Uncle Sam and
Mexico much work and mental an
guish. During bad floods the line as
formed by the river squirms around
in so astonishing and lively a manner
that what is Mexican soil one day may
be In Texas the next, and vice versa.
Bigness of Texas.
Railroads cut this long border line
at Brownsville, Laredo, Eagle Pass,
and FL Paso, Tex. at Douglas, Naco
and Nogales in Arizona, and at Cal
eXico and Tia Juana, in California.
Only four Of these railroads, however
are main lines of through traffic that
penetrate the interior of Mexico; these
start at Laredo, Eagle Pass, Ell Paso
and Nogales.
"You visualize the bigness Of Texas |
when you look at the length of its side |
that borders on Mexico. You realize
its emptiness. too, when you travel |
through some of its border regions,
where the population is less than two
per square mile.

MAKE SERVICE COMPULSORY
Local Councils Appeal to All lrishmen
of Military Age to Undergo Course

Dublin.-1ntensity Of public senti

is evidenced by the actions of the
recently elected Sim Fein local coun.
ellis. Westmeath county council has
decided that all courthouses in the
county shall be closed and the govern

At Claremorrls, County Mayo. the
local council has adopted a resolution
appealing to all Irishmen of military
age to undergo a course of training In
the republican army. and will not give
any position in the service of the coun-
ell to men who have not undergone
such training. In other places the To-
cal councils have decided to cut off
the water supply from the police and
military barracks. At Enniscorthy,
County Wexford, where this was done,
the authorities promptly hit back and
the council room was raided by police
and soldiers.
Meetings have Just been held
throughout Ireland for the purpose of
selecting the judges who are to pre-
side over the Sim Fein parish courts.
Those courts have Jurisdiction in all
cases under $50 in value, and it is in

Continually

ROME, Oct. 21.-After lengthy
discussion meeting of laymen OF
Rome churches adopted resolutions
urging the reading of the Bible in
public schools, provided that children
whose parents or guardians did not
desire them to attend such readings
be excused. e
A mipority was represented by
Rev. J. L. Hodges of the Fifth Ave
nue. Baptist church and j. w
Keown of that church, which urged
that the exemptions be eliminated
and all the children be compelled
to attend the Bible reading. Mr.
Hodges said he was sick and tired
of coddling two per cent of the pop
ulation and the time had come to
quit that.
DR. A. ]. Moncrief quoted an I'M
named Roman as saying that "vice
is more respectable in Rome than
any place | know. Men prominent
ly connected with the churches OF
the city indulge continually in prac-
tees that would not for a moment
be tolerated elsewhere"
