The Mimbres Valley Future.

"opts, tin tney mean the doing
away with stereotyped forms and
conventionalities. and the ushering
in of new modes of liking and sys-
TENS of doing business, yet they are
to be fostered, If they contemplate
the lettering of humanity. The
Mimbres Valley has future before
1t, which in bcholf of mankind. can
be limited only by the degree of
faith maintained by its citizens.
The ideal commonwealth is that
which recognizes the human factor
as paramount, and holds consistent
ly to the fact that the people were
made for the world, not the world
for the people. The Mimbres Valley
representsa n sectional commonwealth
where this truth is uppermost in its
demonstration. Every factor of ma
ture has entered into the making
here and supplying of the highest
conception of comfort and recrea-
tion which is the rightful heritage
of mankind. Work there is to he
done here, but work brings its hap
py returns. II is not the drudge of
the careworn toiler cramped thru
lack of opportunities and downcast
because his labor brings not the need
ed necessities of life: his home rob-
bed of comforts and his children test
ing the bitter dregs of privation up to
the very moment they themselves
are plunged into the grind hut the
toll that brings peace, satisfaction
the feeling that the morrow will
place them nearer the goal of his
achievement, and that the passage
of the years will find him in old age
with a desirable competence: his
children provided for and his de-
parture into the great beyond but
another step toward the goal of final
activity.
Not frequently people live ms tho
life were Il thing to get rid of as
soon as possible. The restless nights
is not relieved by the horrors of the
approaching day with sts attcnuat-
ing physical exertion and worry
over the necessary nourishment re-
Quired for perpctuating physical ex-
istence. They rush through life and
ily into the face of Providence ms
tho anxious to he rid of the huge
"night-mare" of earthly existence.
The human body is the noblest work
of 0mnipotence, and in many phras-
es of industrial life its purpose in
economy of the universe is lost to
sight. Abuse, neglect and the mis-
directing of valued resources are
too often maintained with mock res
ignaton as something beyond rem
edy. Humanity, in many instances
seems resigned to its limited sphere
of existence. Selfshness and greed
have forced these unfortunate being
into the fartherest corners of world
~ prosperity, with the feeling that
equality and justice are absolutely
deficient: that the fates' are
against them regardless of their ef.
forts, they stihc thier hopes and
fling themselves into the breach OF
the worlds NAV and are consumed
by the gastric juices of INDUSTRIAL
ism. In the Mimbres Valley such
conditions are allcviated. Here are
willing hands have not only an op
portunitv to solve the bread and
butter problem, but the tired MIND
and body are granted permission t.
) enjoy "A measure of rest and recrea
tion that harmonizes well with tht
law of nature. Here work brings
= desired results; results produce con
tentment; contentment bring sue
J cess; cuccess crowns human effort
and moral man ultimately goes ou
into the other world with a sm'l'
y spread across his countenance AM
. harboring the feeling that life ha
u been one big worth while.
