900 MEXICANS FOR
YELLOWSTONE VALLEY

A second six-car special train, di-
rect from Ell Paso, Texas, arrived
here Tuesday morning with three
hundred Mexicans to go into the
beet fields of the lower Yellowstone
valley irrigation project.
This brings the total up to 900,
and it is expected to be sufficient
to do the hand labor for the $500
acres of beets to be grown locally
this year.
This fall when immigration will
start back for the south, it is esti-
mated that the Mexican colony will
carry with them the sun of $685.
600, earned by hand labor in the
beet fields of this valley.-Sidney

"Dear Sir-When you see this you

your skill and courage and who adj
yises you to keep out of England for

"a WE'LL WISHER."
He looked back over the stern of
the ship. The shore had fallen out Of
sight. The sky was clear. The sun
shining. The wind was blowing from
the east.
He stood for a long time looking
toward the land he had left.
"Oh, We wings of the wind! take

me and bid her to be s~teadfast In
her faith and hope" he whispered.

LETTER FROM SALLY ATHER.

Mr.. Prescott was very much pat
out, as L told you, over Leslie's max

Perier matinee.

Now isn't that just like man
Bee? l don't suppose Dick Summers
knows anything about John Prescotts
escapades, but like a good publicity
man he looked up all the popular
young married women in the town and
got 'corking good story in the paper
about it.
Miss Perier in fact got herself in
vited to Leslie's home and even that
was put in the paper with the OK
clamation that she spent the afternoon
in Mrs. Prescott's nursery holding his
baby!
This. of course, made Mr.. Prescott
more enrased than ever. Yesterday he
was as cross as a bear and snapped
me up every time l said anything to
him. Yet / like him immensely, Bee.
He's so darn human.
/ haven't had word from Sam
since / left, which 1 guess is perfectly
all right. He can get along without
me now. His eyes are all right. /
have a feeling he is glad to be alone,
ard l know l am.
l saw Les.i. for the first time at
the matinee party. She has grown
very lovely-hasn't she? Mrs. Filing
ton was with her. She is also a
very beautiful woman and l imagine
is very fond of Leslie for she seemed
to beam with pride whenever 1
spoke TO her of Leslie's appearance.
Mr.. Prescott doesn't like Mrs.
Ellington for some reason. DO men
ever like their wives feminine
friends any more than they like their
masculine ones?
I'm quite crazy about my work here.
1t is a pleasure TO work with Mr..
Prescott even when he is grouchy-he
is so funny about il, just like great
big silly boy. \.
Last evening after Paula Perier
left town he took a great bunch of
gardenias home to his wife, ana /
think he had as great fun showing
them to me as he did in presenting
them to her. Although lie did not
say so. / could see he was trying TO
make up for something he had done
that was not just right.
"Do you :hiuk she will be
pleased:" he asked me.
"Of course she will be pleased !.
What woman woull not, to receive
gardenias from any man, even her
husbaDdT"
He looked at me rather strangely
and then grinEed.

Musically. lie Roi de Lahore is lit

ity of striking nature; it is still
| amazingly vigorous in its technique.
| And yet, it will attract the public be-
cause of the visual appeal supplied by

The story of the opera is set in
India, in the eleventh century. The
king of Lahore and his prime min

Giacomo Lauri-Eolpi sang too lusti-

Giuseppe de Luca was frequently
guilty of the same fault as the prime
minister. Della Reinhardt made a
moderately competent Sta, while
Leon Rothier doomed sepulchraily in

that he can cross the ocean in the
shortest possible time.
Mr.. Mellon has a catholic taste in
pictures and cannot be said to admire
portraits more than landscape or still
life. He has certain favorites in the
London gallery, but they take a wide
range, and are not the usual ones
which are assigned to popular favor.
He always spends several afternoons
week during his London visits in
the National Gallery of portraits, and
he also haunts the sections where
famous miniatures are exhibited.
In his Washington home the Sec
retary of the Treasury has more can
found in these days, when simplicity,
even sparcity. is the note of mural
decoration. In the stately dining
room of his apartment in Massachu-
Setts avenue range after range of
fine paintings may be observed, many
of them the work of American artists.
They have been selected with exact
in this environment which one would
expect from the Secretary.
Nothing is more congenial to Mr..
Mellon or to his daughter. Miss Ailsa
Mellon, than to discuss the pictures
and to point out especially good ones,
and thus to keep the conversational
ball rolling along comfortable chan
nels during long conventional din
ners. Mr.. Mellon has not been an ex-

was time when we thought that
without the United States the league
would fail. but that time and that
thought has gone. We are frank to
admit that with the United States
member the league would be
stronger than it is, but that without
the United States we can still have
