the first real success of the war. Gar
rama was pressing Huerta hard when
the A IL c conference to discuss the dill !,
ferences between the United States and
Huerta was called in Buffalo. General
Carranza refused to suspend hostilitles
and declined to abide by the result OF
those diplomatic negotiations. The

General Huerta resigned the provisional
presidency July 10, 1914, and month
later General Carr0nza made his tri-
umphal entry into Mexico City, Huerta
in the meantime having fed to Spain.
Shortly afterward independent. revo-

President Madero. the news went out

Nenustiano Carranza was educated In
the public schools of his native state

capital. When he was admitted to the
bar. however, affection of the eyes pre-
vented him from practicing and he re
turned to his native state to become a
rancher. His experiences as rancher

governor of Coahuila, made Carranza
familiar with the agrarian problem, the

QUICK and Easy Money
BY DIR. JAMES !. VANCE.

It is a little hard sometimes for
youth. end even for age, to see the
harm in gambling. The stake adds
zest TO the game. One knows he
runs a risk 10 lose. lie plays with
his eyes open. And II he Is willing
10 take chances. whose business is
Il but his own2 II the game Is
straight and clean, what harm can
there be IN playing for money, espec-
tally II one be willing 10 pay the
stake ne loses for the fun he gets
The lure is not only the excitement
Of playing for a stake, but the chance
Of making quick and easy money.
There is a delirious ecstacy in money
made without work. The professional
gambler Is a gentleman OF leisure.
Like ,.he lilies OF the valley, "he tolls
not, neither does he spin." but look
at his clothes, his scarf pin, and the
ring on his third finger. Solomon In
all his glory was not arrayed like
one OF these"
There Is fun In gambling. there is
money, there is escape from monot-
ony. Then what is the harm? Are
not laws against gaming the legacy
OF an age Of puritanism2 Are not
the people who frown on a bet sad

things which should be enough TO
settle the question for anybody who
cares TO lineup on the right side.
Nobody Is willing TO put gambler
In a position Of trust. Let a firm
learn that the bOOkkeeper spends MS
evenings at roulette or poker. and
he viii soon be looking for a new
position. Gambling places integrity
under suspicion. A young man may
be capable, energetic, alert, but II
he is addicted 10 gambling, nobody
wants 10 employ him. lie Is without
a market value. He is on the Stag
dump This is argument enough. Why
should one deliberately make himself
undesirable?
The chances. however, are that II
he CANDLES, the young man is not
likely 10 be either capable, energtic,
or alert. Industrious habits rot out
under the indulgence Of fhe gambling
passion The nations That sanction
the lottery stagnate. Panama is a
notorious example.
Gambling Is a scheme to live with
out work. God lives with the men
who work. There is no such thine
as a decent life apart from honest toll
