SEGREGATION UP TO
 THE LEGISLATURE

SANTA FEE, N. N. Nov. 10-Negroe and whites will attend school togeth CT in New Mexico unless the legisla ture enzcfs a law when 1t comes into existence, to separate the schools The Mexican delegates to the conven ton were instrumental in defeating the sepezate school plan, fearing thai if any race segregation was started that 1t might eventually result in segregation os Mexican and American chHarea.
 Those favoring a segregation of the schools were principally delegates from she eastern part of the territory They wanted a provision in the con stitntion that when twothirds or the aualifed voters in a school district voted for seperate schools, such schools must be provided.
 Although it was originally adopted by the republican caucus, when the matte.- came uy for a final vote of inc convention on Monday, the clause was stricken out without much or a fight upon the part of those who haa favored it strongly and had been in- strumentai in having 1t inserted
 Not only did the convention unani' mouslv cut out all reference to sepa- rate schools for negroes. but 1t in- serted provision that no sepera,e schools shall ever be established TOT Spanish speaking children. This was done without debate and after an informal conference in which both re publicans and democrats took part.

UNNATURAL POSE CAUSED BY
IMPROPER SHOES.

There is enough unavoidable I'M
happiness and discomfort in this
world without deyising any more;
yet how many women there are
who deliberately plan additional
tortures for themselves in select
ing painful apparel! Passing, for
the present, the unfortunte mar
tyr who is laced, we will consider
the strange woman who believes
that her feet are too large, and, in
order that her disgrace may not be
kicked about in view of the world,
she squeezes her foot into a shoe
too small, and She result, painful
even to conten plate, is suffering
and awkwardness.
Someone has said that the man
who earns 20 shillings a week and
spends only 10 is contented, while
the man who earns 20 shillings and
spends II is in misery. This might
be paraphrased to depict the mis-
cry of woman who tries to
squeeze Alb foot into A shoe
The difference in size is slight, but
the difference in feeling is huge.
