Throughout the entire efforts of this country to aid the republic of Mexico to a readjus\nent of its unsettled con- | aition the aim has been to give it the | help which would be of the greatest assistance and profit. It has, as it must ever be, realized that as the largest nation in this hemisphere we shouid always be ready to fulfil the obligations of a big brother towards the weaker republics of the two con- tinents. Such is but the attitude which could be expected. There are the best of reasons why we should be interested in the smaller republics and their peaceful progress and they in usi and the protection and help which we can give them. Tt is not therefore surprising that John Barrett, who is so closely in touch with Latin-American things and senti- ‘ment should look upon the solution of the Mexican problem as the greatest crisis in the 100 years relations O this country with Latin Amearica. It can- not but be realized however that the method which is being pursued is best calculated to indicate to the Ameri- can republics that its intentions are the highest and noblest. It is with regret that there come the occasional calls for the sending of an army of Intervention into that country. Not only would such place a terrific obli- | gation npon this count: but it would create an impression ich would be far reaching and damaging among the other nineteen republics. The situa- tion is such that this country must go blow, but it must go right. JEWISH FARMERS What an important ard valuable factor the organizations are which of- for encouragement and ald to the Jew- ish immigrents, in taking taem ou! of the large centers and interestinz them in the opportunities whi: exist in sgricnliure, is revealed by the reports submitted at the recent convention of the Fedsration of Jewish Farmers of America. Magnificent opportunities are offered to members of that race to begin at the bottom and even though it may be a new departure, make good through a demonstration of their adaptability to agricultural pursuits. There are striking evidences of such operationsa throughout this end of Con- necticut where the experiment has not only been tried but where the people have made good under great handi- caps, Through the opersation of the move- ment to send the Jewish people to the farms in varicus sections of the coun- try, and the aid which was offered for maintaining the farms, a most vaiuable step has been taken .towards reliev- ing the congestion in cities where they were disposed to settle, and at the same time they have been conducted into a bugelness where the need of in- creased production is of national im- portance. These people are progressing even though it be slowly and they have been the means of taking up and oc- cupying many of the farms whicn for varlous reasons had been abandonmed or were idle. For the time they have been at it their accomplishments are praiseworthy but it is In the future | that the greatest resdlts lie. MOTION P PlCTURE BUSINESS. Some idea of the enormous business which has been developed by the mov- ing picture form of entertainment is revealed by the tremendous amount of fiims which is required to supply the demand. The United States is the greatest manufacturer in. the world of motion picture films, probably three- quarters of the world’s supply being manufactured in this country, Large quantities of films are sent out of the country both as blank and unex- posed films and as finished fiims ready for use in the stereopticon, This ex- port business has shown remarkable growth and fully twenty-five thousand miles of the flims, or enough to stretch around the entire globe, at the equa- tor, will be the record for this year, The motion pisture has g hold upen the people of all countries, but some of the great picture hemses are located in foreign countries, all of which are big users of the unexposed films as indicated by the sixty: million feet of unexpesed film expert- ed, in the first nine months of the vear. The value of such film is abeut $1,811,000 while the expesed film sent abroad amounting te twenty-three anmd a half millien feet had a value of $1,655,000, Emgland is by far the largest pur- chaser of flms from this country, pare _! i resort to the old time hard line { theory oil is not proving a panacea in ive and a half | purprises can easily be shifted to the In bis South Amerfcan speeches Col.

Each report that Huerta’s control is about to colldpse seems to act as a reviving force, about line fences, dead apple trees, sprinkling, lawsuits and getting married. Think it over, widow—think it over. I am a fai minded man and will not take advan- tage of vou.” With that he walked out of the house. The widow first shed tears of anger. Then she smiled. Then she laughed. Then she went down to the lawyer she had employed and said she guessed she would withdraw the suit. "I think it’s better,” he replied. “We can’tprove anything but a dead ap- ple tree, and, anyhow, Deacon Hardy is the man we ought to have sued.” It thus came about that Mr. Hack- ett heard no more-of the suit.
