Gen. Plutarco Elias Calles, Minis- ter of War and former President of Mexico, and Gen. Juan Vincente Gomez, who declined re-election to the president of Venezuela, are both | to devote their time to farming. Gen. Gomez is 72 years of age and has been in power in Venezuela since 1909. He is popular as a president, as proven by the constancy with which the people have supported him in his campaigns. - Re-elected, he has de- clined to serve saying that he prefers to return to agricultural work, in which he was formerly engaged Gen. Gomez prefers to farm rather than do anything else, but served his country as President in order to be of service when he was needed. He set out to establish order and assure prosperity, peace and happiness for Venezuela, and now after an active carreer in which he has done a great deal for his homeland, he feels that ‘| his objectives have been reached and he is free to retire to the obscurity of his farm, where he finds his greatest happiness. The Minister of War of Mexico Gen. Calles, has resigned his port-folio and will retire to the Pacific countryside to rest. Some of his time he will devote to simple farm life of his ranch near Mexico = City, exchanging, thus, his sword for a ploughshare. The resignation of Calles closed nearly three months of emergency service te the government which he headed for four years and left last December after the designation of Emilio Portes Gil as provisional presi- dent and his sucessor. At the time he disclaimed intention participating further in Mexican political life, except in the event of emergency. The emergency arose during the recent military revolt, which Calles as Minister of ‘War brought to its termination within two months. —_— HINTS FOR THE HOME 0: Have you ever thought of the var- ied uses to which you might put your odd pieces of sterling silver, aside from their customary service?. Salt cellers of the open type make of charming clip or stamp holders for | the desk. A sandwich tray—that is a one—can be used as an ice dish, a dessert dish, for salads or for fruit. And this is likewise tyue of the berry bowl which is used these days for vegetables, salads, ice creams and many other foods. Coasters of the old English design with beading across the top can be put to excellent use as ash trays. round cream J That is, of course, , when not holding their proper decanters. These are just a few of the many ways in which to get double service from sterling which, to yield fullest returns on its invest- ment, should be used every day of its life. ee Follow the Gypsy Patteran What is a patteran?
