G. d. Bumpus has come in with a

he can, move onto his homestead in

that If anyone wants a well bored

Declamatory Contest at Lewis
Flats.

Luna county is getting strong on
educational matters, as was plainly
evidenced last Friday evening when
the Misses lverson, Rogers, Bergen,
Waddick and EIDE. of the Deming
school, went out to Lewis Flats to
act as referee and judges, Peter j..
Lindermann being the pilot of the
party. Miss Bergen acted as referee
and the other young ladies as judges,
and all are enthusiastic in praise Of
the superior work being done by
Prof. ]. II. Clark. Miss Bergen's
pithy remarks were received with
marked enthusiasm.
The exercises consisted of recita-
tons, music, fancy drills and a fine
character sketch Of one of Riley's
poems. In the recitation contest
first prize was won by Robert Rus
sell, who was only three points
ahead of Bertha Kelly, Edna Cooper
getting third, in close competition
to second. There were ten contest
ants and no mark was below So,
which is a very creditable showing.
The uniformity of marking was
equally praiseworthy to the judges
and contestants. The results Of the
contest give general satisfaction.
Prof. Clark is certainly doing
some splendid work in fine school,
and that the district is willing to pay
literally for superior work speaks
well for the community.
In this connection it might be well
to observe that a county contest
would be about the proper thing for
next year.

The maximum number of pupils
enrolled under one teacher ought
not to be over so. A teacher can
do better individual work when the
enrolment is 30 than when the max
imum number is enrolled. The ca
pacity of the Deming school build

total enrolment since Sept. 1909,
has been 565. therefore the present
capacity is exceeded by l65 pupils,
