LARGE TRADE WITH MEXICO.

The trade of the United States with Mexico has grown largely during the years from 1917 to the present time. Prior to 1917 exports to Mexico were $60, ,000, ,000; 1918 the years exports were $107, 7,O0o, ,o00s se1s19 they reached $12O, ,000, 900; 1920, $144, 4,000, 900; and in 1921 they are expected to reach $280, ,000,0 900. This growth is enor- nous, when it is a well known fact that the big mining interests have been hard pressed during the years. Oil is the one big thing that has made trade with Mexico possible, giving that republic big bag of money on which to do business. Of course, dur ing the present year Mexico will be still greater depressed by the closing down of the mines and smelters, which heretofore have been of great value in the furnishing of revenue where with to maintain the government and provide the means of trading with oth- CT nations. -,r-l -...... ....'.,,.

 More than one thousand members of the American Legion in Wichita, Kan, can be called out to attend special meetings or to answer emer- gency calls on few minutes notice. By system of three relays on the telephone, all members of Thomas Hopkins post can be notified in less than half an hour, according to the post commander. The system works in this mannet: The post adjutant calls ten members, who in turn call from five to ten men; the latter each notify ten more men. Each man has a card with, the names and telephone number allotted to him.
 Autilation of a picture of former President Wilson by two brothers in Lodi, Cal, aroused the people of that city to such an extent that it was necessary for the members of the local American Legion post to protect the accused.
