Circular Letter to County Superin-
tendents and Teachers.
Gentlemen: The purpose of this
circular is to call your attention to
the U. S. Census which is to be taken
in New Mexico between the dates,
April 1t5h 1910, and May 18th, 1910.
This census is of very great import
ance to New Mexico; unquestionably
it is of greater importance to our ter
ritory than to any other or to any COM
monwealth in the Union. 1t is highly
important that we secure accurate in,
formation in regard to the items call
ed for on the census blanks and | trust
that every county superintendent and
teacher will do all within his power to
instruct pupils and patrons concerning
the Importance of this census and the
necessity for accuracy. Blanks will ac-
company this circular giving informa
ton as to the history of the census
and as to the exact items to be called
for in each community in our terri,
tory. | would suggest that each coun
ty superintendent or each teacher set
a date for the consideration of the
census question and invite patrons OF
the community to a joint discussion OF
the Importance of this enumeration
and the details of the same.
The necessity for the consideration
of this question is doubly enforced
upon me by the fact that in the recen
examination of applicants for census
work over ninety per cent OF the
teachers who wrote on the eXam1na
ton failed and about the only worl
that had to be done in this eXamina
tion was to fill out the regular enum
Grafton blank.
need not add that the chief reasol
why a careful census at this time il
of supreme Importance to our terri
tory is the advantage that will ce1
tainly come to us in our campaign fo
statehood from an accurate enume1
alton of our people and a correct state
ment as to our condition, 1ndustriall
and educationally.

Portland Ore, Feb. 25.-The Pacific

Heavy rains are rapidly melting the
snow fifteen feet deep that extends
for ten miles near the summit of the
Cascade mountains and rivers and
creeks are fast rising. Rain and warm

Washington and Idaho and the situ-
alton is regarded as alarming. Roads

What is the Cause?

Zone of the great troubles with this

hoarse voice, "is that we have drafts

of the money order variety but of the

What we need is cage-door, the re-
volving kind that is the foe of drafts.

PRESENT FOR BABY.

One Of the prettiest baby presents we
know of is the hood and cape, n there
can be devised no more necessary gar
ment for throwing round the little

Plain challis, French flannel or fine
cashmere will make a beautiful cape.
perhaps the last named is the most sat
isfactory.
There are two ways of making a COM
Portable Cape. 1t may be lined with
china silk or left without a lining, but
in either case the hood demands a soft
lining against the head. A twist of
ribbon passes round the back of the
neck on the outside, holding in the
fulness of cap and cape and ending In
a rosette at each side Of the tiny face.
From this point hangs an n Of rib
bon to tie the cape together at the
throat.
A tiny circular design of flowers and
stems is often embroidered on each of
the pointed ends of the cape and on
each side of the cap above the rosette.
Whatever Innings o have decided
to use are now basted in, and the seal
lop along the edge Is worked through
cashmere and lining silk.
Delicate blue or pink, embroidered In
self tones, will make a most attractive
gift for some little stranger If the rib
bons Used for strings and rosettes are
the rich wide variety of the wash quail

all of which Mr.. Craighead replied in a
grave discussion as to the distinction,
if any, between sanity in the editorial
sense, and imbecility. Lawyers began

that gentleman's neck grew red with
rage: but Shayne was suave, debonalr,
and apparently at ease, carefully ignor-

the three was the one great news story

remarks on the law. and then yield to
my learned colleague, who viii lay

Mr.. Filley was outraged at the eff

BABY'S SHORT DRESS.


For baby's first short froeks. white
is most used. The custom of wearing
jumpers over the frock at play time
has led, however, to the wearing OF
the jumper without the frock under
meath.
Blue and white and pink and white
checked ginghams are perhaps the best
materials for such a purpose.
Some sprigged dimities may be picked
up for almost nothing, which are so
pretty that they may be used for ever

Theodore Carson, engineering genius,
with his southern accent and retiring
manners, was usually with Mr.. Filley,
the personal, representative of Mr..
Cyrus Waddy, a midland capitalist who
was financing the Carson project. He
avoided reporters, was greedy of time,
and met secret emissaries from all the
world. The New York, of which he
had been so afraid, opened Its arms to
him, but looked on him as upon a man
with his head in the lions mouth. That
an Illinois banker, an Alabama en-
gineer. and a wild, weird freak like
Craighead could escape Shayne In his
Wall Street jungle seemed very I'M
likely.
They even said that Aerostatic Power
had acquired inventions Identical in
principle with the Virginia, but ante
dating that aerial marvel by many
years; and they smiled and said. 1.-THE

newspapers published Carson's picture
as that of a man who was to be robbed

Then someone discovered that on the
day the Carson-Craighead Company had
been formed, the Universal Nitrates and
Air Products Company was born, with
directors and stockholders identical
with those of the Aeronef Company, and
they had spent a great campaign
fund in getting leases and grants for
the extraction from the atmosphere of
nitrates and the like, in lines like those
of Scots plaid all over the continent.
The air over almost every highway a

covered SO far as to cut the city into
nearly a hundred irregular blocks. The
other great cities were similarly grid

ers and streams was mostly sold to the
Air Products Company. The mystery
in this so stimulated curiosity that it
caused more excitement thar the Vir-
ginia herself. For these seemingly

was to be caught in the net-but what?
And in answer, Craighead emitted
daily statements of dreams wilder than
the visions of opium. Mr.. Craighead
seemed crazy-but was he? Mr.. Craig

really deep? Mr.. Craighead had organ
lied both these companies on the same
day, Differed them by the same mem
one a wild scheme that made the world
laugh, the other based on an invention
that must change the course of history.

with the navigation of the air?

STENCILS ON CREPE.

Some very pretty stencil work is
done upon cotton crepe for wearing ap-
parel, but it can only be recommended
for dressing gowns and boudoir robes.
While 1t is generally understood that
the carefully applied stencil will laun-
der IL lukewarm soapy water be used,
1t savers too much of fancy work to
be recommended for actual dresses.
Upon the dressing gown, however, a
dainty butterfly stenciled at intervals
on a crepe surface is graceful. and a
conventional floral design or repeat for
the long front hens n for the How
ing sleeves Is most effective.
The paler shades of crepe are those
on which colored stencils Of contrast
ing tones are most successfully ap-
piled.

nNE of the problems which faces
the girl who works is that of how

nNE of the problems which faces
~ the girl who works is that of how
far freedom of action may be carried.
Hitherto she has been subjected to
the rules and regulations of her home.
She has, as a rule, deferred to her
father and mother in all matters, So
cial, financial and personal. With her
entrance into business, however, she
begins a life separate from her fam
lily. She Is in a world different from
their world and which they never en-
ter. In this world h is, to a large
extent, her own mistress.
As time goes on, therefore, she is apt
to break away from all home restraint
she wants to make her decisions by
herself, to plan her own future; in
fact. she wishes to live her W life.
The danger lies in ar over-emphasis
of her own individuality. In claiming
independence for herself she often re-
stricts the freedom of others.
Live and let live" Is a good rule.
A girls independence Of thought and
action Is not any more important than
the independence of thought and ac-
ton of the people about her. She must
remember that while her father works.
he does not feel that he a ignore
the demands of the home circle. The
simple fact that he lives apart in his
daily life Is not an excuse for a separa-
ton of interests at other times.
The girl who wishes to live her own
life often grows intolerant Of advice.
She does not want anyone to tell her
what she shall do or what she shall
wear. She resents her mothers care
full chaperonage. She feels that as a
business woman she is somewhat set
apart, and she pushes away from her
everything that might seem to hamper
her independence of action.
Many girls, seeking freedom, leave
their homes and go where they may.
as they state it, prove their W per-
sonality." Their friends and relatives,
they claim. do not appreciate them
and they feel that their best develop
ment will come in another atmosphere.
I think most girls will find more ap-
probation in their own homes than in
an unsympathetic world. They will
find, too, that outsiders will encroach
on their lives in ways of which they
have not dreamed. In this world of
ours none Of us can be really free. We
are dependent upon others for employ
ment. for friendship. for pleasure, for
help in trouble.
Living our own life has a fascinating
sound, but disillusion will come to the
girl who goes to extremes along this
line.
For example, I know of a young
woman who, with great talent, but
little application, felt herself somewhat
set apart from her family. She chafed
