The reason Vinol is so successful in

Want of Confidence What Most
Towns Suffer From.
Mt. Olive Tribune.

Mt. Olive Tribune.
More towns die for want of conf
dence on the part of the business
men and lack of public spirit than
any other cause. When man in
search of a home or a business iOca-
ton goes into a town and finds
everything brim full of hope and en-
thusiasm of the prospects of the
place. and all earnestly at work to
build it up, he soon becomes imbued
with the same spirit and as a result
he drives down stakes and goes to
work with the same interest. When.
however, he goes to a town where
every one expresses doubt and ap-
prehension for the future prosperity
of the place, mOping about indulg-
ing in mOurnful complaints he nat
urally feels that it is no place for
him, and he at once shakes the dust
off his feet while he pulls out with all
possible speed for some other place.
Consequently try and make a live,
enterprising town out of the town in
which you live. When you are work
ing for or saying a good thing for
your town you are accomplishing
all the more for yourself.

ANOTHER NORMAL
SCHOOL IS WANTED
Che People of Eastern New Mexico
VIII Ask That IL BE Established
Without Delay.

Eastern New Mexico is particularly
wei repi esorteG at the meeting of
New Mexico educators here this week,
and among the prominent educators
from that part of tn territory Is Mrs.
;. +. Culberson, superintendent Of
Roosevelt county, and NJ. IL. Brasher
superintendent of Chaves county, both
of whom are leading the movement
for the establishment of another Nor
NAL school in the territory, located
in one of the eastern counties. They
have the assistance of all the teachers
from that part of the territory and
are boosting the plan continuously.
Says Mrs. Culberson: "Roose-
welt county alone has 10000 people,
9S per cent of whom are of Anglo
Saxon descent. The percentage of
college educated people is great and
naturally those people want their
children educated in the best schools
available. While the central, north
ern and southern part of the terri
tory is well supplied with higher
institutions of learning, the eastern
part of the territory has little to offer
after the public school and high
school courses are completed. The
children must attend schools at great
distance and at increased expense or
consider their education finished.
1.-The Pecos Valley Teachers asso-
citation at it's recent meeting favored
the establishment of a Normal school
in one of the eastern counties and
we are steadily working toward this.
II will give the children of that part
OF the territory a chance to receive
higher education and will also be of
value in training teachers.
1--WE have also a plan under way
to grade the county schools from first
to eighth grades, and provide central
county high schools for the pupils
after they complete the grade work.
We believe this plan will be a big
improvement and hope to see it in
operation soon"

Messina say that there were 100 for
eigners in the Hotel Trinacria and
they all lost their lives. The hotel
was completely obllterated. 1t was one
of the best in the city and was pat
ronized almost exclusively by tourists.
Railroad communication with Mes
sina has been restored. A trainload
of refugees came in here this morn
ing but they were all maddened with
terror and none We're capable of Civ
ing a connected account Of the catas-
trophe. All agree that Messina was
destroyed and the dead can be count
ed by the tens of thousands. Triancria
hotel with ninety guests was demol-
ished. The city hall, bourse, tele-
graph offices and barracks were also
destroyed. A tidal wave, thirty feet
hign swept up three streets OF the
city in the height of the confusion.
Hundreds of half dressed men. wo-
men and children were caught in the
onrush of the waters and drowned or
injured.
Refugees declare that the entire
country around Messina has been de-
wasted and several villages have dis
appeared. Reggie Is described as be-
Ing nothing but vast sepulchre.
Paris, Dec 29.-The minister of
marine has ordered two French bat
tieships and three torpedo boat de-
stroyers to proceed to Messina to sue
cor victims.
Malta, Dec. 29.-The British bat
tleship and two cruisers left here yes
terday for Messina to render every
assistance to survivors of the disas-
ter.

Rome, Dec. 29.-Southern Italy and
the island of Sicily have been visited
by an appalling calamity. the extent
of which cannot as yet be grasped.
An earthquake yesterday morning
wrecked city after city and obliter-
ated smaller towns without number.
Then a tidal wave swept along the
strait of Messina and added to the
horror, drowning people in their
helplessness and panic. Fire came to
complete the work of destruction, and
countless numbers of men, women
cnd children were burned to death.
An adequate estimate of the total
casualties is yet quite impossible, but
the Tribuna places the number be-
tween 10000 and 10000.
The horror and destructiveness of
this earthquake will probably exceed
that of any earthquake in Italy since
1888, when 10000 perished at Mes
sina alone. Reports of heavy loss OF
life are coming in every hour from
city, town and village in the stricken
district and the story in detail has
only begun 10 be told. The horror
grows as the reports come in.
The minister of the interior has
telegraphed from Messlna saying that
the bodies of 20 Englishmen and 80
Germans are buried beneath the ruins
of the hotels Trinacria, Victoria and
Bellevue at Messina.
