SATURDAY
last DAY

The closing event of the third annu-
al meeting of the Pecos Valley Teach
ers Association was a reception Sat
| urday evening at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Francis Divers on North Missou-
ri avenue, by the home teachers in
honor of the visitors. The visitors all
have now gone to their homes in tho
three counties of the Valley, most of
them starting Saturday night and
Sunday.
The reception was happy conclu-
sion to a the successful meeting. Fif-
ty or sixty teachers were in at
tendance. Punch was served through
out the evening, and after a social
hour, a program of toasts was taken
up, and some clever speeches were
tales, spoke On "The Woman Super
intendent." Prof. T. G. Rodgers, of
Roswell, toasted 'Old Maids" and was
answered by Miss Bedechek, of Ros-
we'll, whose topic was "Old Bache-
! lors.'' When these two speeches end
ed there was general melting of
hearts, and it is reported that there
were several proposals and accept
ances on the spot. Prof. NJ. H. Brasher
spoke on Manual Training The
High School Orchestra played several
selections, and Miss Carhart favored
the party with two vocal selections
The reports of the association com
mittees will not be ready for publica-
ton before tomorrow. Probably the

is a resolution that was unanimously
adopted, asking that Prof NJ. H Bra
sher be named as a member of the
New Mexico Board of Education

ance at the association: Bernice A.
