On the banks OF the picturesque San
Antonio River, in a grove of giant
pecan trees, some of them centuries
old, San Antonio Girl Scouts Satur-

The setting was the old San Juan
farm, near Bergs Mill, improved by
DR.. T. T.. Jackson and recently LEASED
by the Van Horns as a country home.
The barbecue was planned by little
Margaret Van Horn, who is organic
ing a troop of Girl Scouts among her
acquaintance at Bergs Mill. She
conceived the idea of the country Girl

The plan instantly met with her moth

A. p. Garlic, Back From

Through economies and wide sweep

brilliant future before the country,

cral here, who has just returned
from a study of Mexican conditions
on n trip with Mayor John w Tobin
and W. NJ. Mcintosh of The Light.
ITO begin with" said Mr.. Garlic,
"a general readjustment has taken
place. This means a change IA the
government offices as well as in the
army. Everything has been centraliz-
cd and organized. The army is on
a working basis, and so are the of
fees.
DEDID AnL hCDSSLbs
Economics put into effect by
President Plutarco. f. Gales have
resulted in a payment of the interior
debt as well as payment to business
men and government employees.
Optimistic prospects loom as a re-
suit of the proposed opening of the

the government has bought the. La

AS far as agricultural conditions
over the republic, I refer to Morelos,
which we visited closely. The crops
are good, especially corn, rice and
the big fields around Cuernavaca and
Cacahuamilpa.
HIGHWAYS BUILT.
"The highway program is being in
tcnsively followed out. The Laredo
Mexico City road, which has been
taken under contract by the Byrne
Brothers of Chicago, and on which it
has been announced that work will
start Immediately, as we'll as on other
stretches throughout the republic, will
do much to ST llate commerce.
AN educational program of far.
reaching scope is being carried out.
President Gales is establishing schools
all over the republic, and the motto
of the present administration 'Educa-
tional, morality and justice is being
followed to the letter"
Concerning the airplane mail sys-
