' POLITE ANYWAY
ARE POOREST
OF MEXICANS
—
MEXICO CITY. July 2 (by Associat
ed Press).—Courtesy is a common
^ commodity in Mexico. No Mexican
is too poor to afford it.
The roughest soldier will not pass
one in a narrow corridor without say-!
ing “Con permiso,” or “dispenseme ”
which are Spanish expressions equi
valent to ‘“excuse me.” The same
phrase is invariably used when one
person takes leave of another, to
which the answer in va-.-ably is “Pase
vd.”
T’pon giving a nev acquaintance
one's address, it is customary to say
“At number—'-street is vour
home (or office),” the implication
^ being that the new friend is to con
sider one’s home his own.
Persons introduced to each other,
when their respective names are pro
nounced, say: “Your servant, sir,” or
“Juan Garcia, for the purpose of serv
ing you, sir.”
When taking leave of each other,
formal acquaintances who wish to
continue relations with each other
say: “I remain at (or I offer myself
to) your service.”
Observance of these forms which
a Mexican rarely disregards, is a val
uable aid to a stranger wTho wishes to
establish profitable commercial or
pleasant social relations with Mexico.
COMMEMORATE AERIAL
WARFARE INITIATORS
WITH BIG MONUMENT
WASHINGTON, July 2 (by Asso
ciated Press).—To commemorate the
services of the men who initiated
aerial warfare and practically revol
utionized it. an organzation has been
formed in England under the pres
idency of the Prince of Wales, to
raise a fund of about 400,000 pounds.
There is to be erected a commemor
ative monument to the fame of the
>»officers and men of the royal naval
service, the royal flying corps; the
Australian flying corps and the roy
al air force, including the officers
and men who joined the force from
the overseas dominions. In this last
class are many Americans, who en
listed in the Canadian armies before
America got into the war.
, It is also proposed to establish
places of residential education for
the children of airmen and to make
allowances for the children of offi
cers, and generally to care for dis
abled, sick and infirm officers and
airmen and their dependents.
Believeing that many Americans
will be interested in the memorial,
the air attache of the British embassy
in Washington, Commodore L. Charl
ton, will furnish them any desired in
formation.
ENGLISH PROFESSOR ON
FRIENDLY MISSION
LONDON, July 2 (by Associated
Press).—Dr. A. E. Barvie, principal of
the New College, London and chair
man of the Congregational union, is
shortly leaving England on an Anglo
American friendship mission to the
United States.
“I shall get at the ear of the
nation by speaking at churches, uni
versities arid colleges,” he said.
HONOLULU VISITED BY
FAMILY OF KANGAROOS
HONOLULU, July 2 (by Associated
Press).— Kangaroo are roaming the
hills back of Honolulu where none
was ever seen before 1916. In that
year a male and female kangaroo
escaped from a private menagerie
here and the other day they were seen
in the Oahu foothills with a family of
three little kangaroo in their twain.
So far no effort has been made to
capture the animals.
The harmful gossip is one hundred
degrees lower than the man who
didn’t know it was loaded.
Oratory proves nothing, but so
long as the masses believe it does,
voice will be at a premium' over
brains.
Thinking persons not only have the
inalienable right to life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness, as have
other people, but they also have the
additional inalienable right to privacy
when they need it.
CHINESE SILK
INFERIOR TO
OTHER GOODS
TOKIO, July 2 (by Associated
Press).—Chinese methods of produc
ing silk are so primitive that it will
be a long time before China can offer
satisfactory material to the American
market, in the opinion of D. E. Douty,
one of the American party who visited
China to investigate the silk industry.
He said:
“The American silk dealers have
often called the attention of the
Chinese authorities to the importance
of improving their silk industry, but
much to our regret and surprise the
Chinese authorities can never afford
to listen to any suggestions on the
subject. In consequence all consid
erations necessary for the develop
ment of sericultural industry in China
are completely neglected.
“It is a matter of regret that China
should remain in such a condition of
industrial torpor at this time, when
there is a growing international de
mand for silk as a consequence of the
growth of women workers’ incpmes
throughout the world.”
I An official of the Japan Silk Thread
i Association says: Improvement of
the Chinese silk industry will be
beneficial not only to China and
i America but to Japan as well, because
the limit of production cannot be in
creased, and Chinese cocoons are
needed for the further development of
the silk industry here. Close co
operation between China, Japan and
America is necessary in order to offer
| preducts satisfactory to the silk trade
j in America.

ITINERANT CATTLE
| SALT LAKE CITY, July 2 (by As
sociated Press).—Mine taxation ant
taxation of itinerant herds of live
stock will be two of the main pues

j tion of the national tax associatior

liam Bailey, secretary of the Utah

sessment.

Bailey, include a visit from Rcnbert
Hoover, who will probably speak in
behalf of the American Mining con
gress and Professor Julius J. Bullock,
head of the tax study course at Har
vard university.
After a weak-minded man has been
pushed, or scared into leading a bet
ter life, the first thing he does is to
look all around to find somebody or
something to reform.
Children can be very helpful to par
ents and friends, if they will, and one
way is refusing to show off their
accomplishments before company.
