Lo Children’s Bureau is urging the two thousand and odd communities which have asked the bureau for sug- gestions about the observance of Baby Week, to emphasize the oppor- tunity “it affords for extending per- manent infant welfare work in each community..

THE MEXICAN SITUATION President Wilson’s act of sending armed troops into Mexico to ‘‘get” Villa will meet with the approval of every American citizen. The bet- ter class of Mexicans will welcome it for they are heartsick and helpless. Bringing Villa to justice will aid in bringing peace, justice and prog- ress for Mexico. Whether or not Carranza will give permission to the American soldiers to cross the border to “get” Villa is beside the question. Gratitude is not to be looked for from Carranza. The total of the ‘“‘watchful wait- ing” policy in Mexico in 1913-15 is 118 lives. State department data on the situa- tion showed that seventy-six Amer- icans were killed in Mexico in the year 1913-15 inclusive, as against forty-seven in the three years pre- ceding. Twenty-six civilian Americans and sixteen soldiers were killed on Am- erican soil in those three years as a result of Mexican trouble. Eighty-nine Mexicans were killed in the 1913-15 period as a result of border trouble other than that aris- ing from firing across the border. in clashes regarding the latter act, three Mexicans were killed. It was time that action be taken against this insult to the American | flag. THE WRANGLING Tomorrow will be the twenty-sec- ond anniversary of Chief Justice White’s appointment to the supreme court bench. As a sidelight upon the present wrangle over the nom- ination by President Wilson of Louis D. Brandeis to the supreme bench, it is interesting to recall that White's appointment followed a bit- ter fight in which the senate reject- ed two appointees of President Gro- ver Cleveland. Chief Justice White, at the time of his appointment; was a member of the United States sen- ate from Louisiana. AY MC. A Speakers at the banquet recently given by a class of the Presbyterian Sunday school, struck a popular chord when they suggested a Y. M. C. A. for Bemidji. Bemidji is very much in need of a Y. M. C. A. and we believe that active steps should be taken immediately so that inside of a few years Bemidji will have a Y. M. C. A. of which it is proud.
