For the purpose of trying to bring
the refugees to FL Paso, a committee
of four was selected and left Wednes-
day night for Preside. On this COM
mittee are Herman Andreas, represent
ing the City National bank; Frank
WOOdburn, representing the Rio Grande
bank; Jose c. Zozaya, Of the Popular
Dry Goods company; Luther Barnard
and r Lujan, of the White House Ae-
cOrding to the reports received from
Mexican consul Max Diebold, the flee
ing ChihuahUans were about 80 miles
from Ojinaga Wednesday and are ex-
pected to arrive in Preside some time
today.
The committee will do all it can 70
assist the refugees in getting transpor-
tatiOn to Maria, and also in helping
personal property through the customs
offices at Preside. At Maria it will
arrange to have train meet the refu-
gees to bring them to FL PaSo and will
also make hotel reservations for them
and do whatever else may be in the
ance.
The decision to have this committee
go to Preside was reached after
great deal Of discussion. Although the
refugees included many personal
friends, the business men did not wish
to take any action that might appear
to be showing partially to either side
Of the Mexican factions. It was decided
that all efforts should be strictly neu-

once, and took them home, and my
wife Wept for three days. saying that
I loved her no longer, or I'd appreciate
the beautiful slippers she had made
for me. So I put the bought slippers
IN the stove and wore the homemade
ones, processing such abundant ad-
miration for them that my wife finally
relented, and the white winged dove
bic home once more.
My wife was always making out
landish things and expecting me to
wear them. She was extremely proud
cast-off trousers. They looked like
pancakes and no man would be found
dead in them. Every morning, in cold
weather, that admirable woman would
see that put on my ear pads before
1 left the house, and then she'd stand
at the window watching me until
turned the corner, and thinking how
happy and comfortable / must be with
those lovely things on my ears. But
as soon as I turned the corner I took
them off my ears and chucked them
into my overcOat pockets. Better to
nave my ears frozen a dozen times
than to meet anybody I knew and be
exposed to the scOrn of the populace.
And when I'd get home in the evening
my wife would ask me a dozen ques-
lions about those ear pads and the
amount of comfort I got out of them
And she wanted to know what my
friends thought of them, and I had to
SIT there lying like AnanlaS at a fish
story competition.
4 suppose some moralists would
hold that I should have told the truth
at all hazards. but the highest ambi-
ton of a married man is to have
peace. There is no comfort for any
body under the family rooftree If the
wife AMI mother is weeping; and moth
ing makes her weep quicker or longer
or louder than the knowledge that her
husband doesn't like to wear the slip
pers or ear pads she made for him.
TT was the same way with rnittens.
I could buy an excellent pair of nit
tens at the store for fifty cents. and
they would be handsome and service
able, but my wife persisted in making
my m1ttenS for me, AMI she seemed to
have the idea that my fingers all
stuck out at right angles from each
other, and that my thumb grew in the
middles of my palm. ] wore such
homemade things for years and years.

I went"

MAY MOVE G.. H. YARDS
TO ALFALFA SWITCH

Railroad Attorney Is Expected Here to
Clear Up Title to Land Secured for
Yards and Round House Site.
An attornev of the G. H. & y. a. rail-
road is expected to reach here some time
this week to clear the title to the land
owned by the railroad company at Al
falfa switch, down the valley. which was
purchased to be used as a yards and
round house site by the railroad COM
pany several years ago. The railroad
eOmpanys representatives have been
busy during the past month in an effort
to get clear title to the ground around
Alfalfa switch, which is a part of the
Ascarate grant, and a part of which is
said to be under title cloud.
The railroad company has had the
project of moving the company yards
and round house to Alfalfa under COLI
sideratiOn for the past three months.
The arrival of the railroad attorney is
believed by railroad men here to mean
that the removal of the yards Will be
finally agreed upon as soon as the title
can be cleared.

Misplaced Kindness
A Story Of the Moment
BY WALT MASON
The Famous Prose Poet
The Famous Prose Poet.

The Famous Prose Poet.
Is ME wonder isl observed the
wild man OF the woods, that
any married men remain in
the busy haunts. Most wives are ex-
cellent people, and few husbands de-
serve them, yet, with the best inten-
tions in the world, they make things
uncomfortable around the home. The
good husband would rather suffer in
silence than wound his Wife's feelings,
and so he goes ahead suffering until
he can endure no more, and then he
lees to the forest primeval where ma
ture applies a balm to his bruised and
broken spirit
Il feel quite satisfied that few mar
RED men have been so blessed in their
wives as was. Ny wife was a truly
wonderful woman, and I have never
ceased to admire her splendid quail
ties OF mind and heart, but there were
some things she couldn't understand.
For instance, she was determined to
keep me supplied with homemade
slippers. She was always making them
out Of cOlOred wool and other ma
terials- If there is anything I detest.
II is homemade slippers. The ones
my wife used to make were so con-
structed that nobody but civil engi-
neer could distinguish the right one
from the left, and they looked like
DIIIoOards- 1 always felt as though I
was wearing a pair of pies on my feet
when / had them on, and when visitors
came to the house in the evening 7
was so ashamed that I hid my feet
under the sofa. Nothing is better cal
culated to make a man look ridiculous
than homemade slippers, which remind
spectators OF the notices women used
TO make out Of cOlored wool When
ever l contemplated my slippers felt
that they would look better If they
mad rustic frames on them.
"A man can go to a store and buv
Tor few paltry kOpecks. slippers
which fit his feet and preserve his

TO RENEW EFFORT
FOR NEW DRIVEWAY
Property Owners Are to Be
Urged to Give Right
ofway For Route.

Because the property owners along
the route of the proposed scenic drive
way would not donate the rightofway,
and the city was not financially able to
purchase the needed space, alderman
w. 5. Clayton reported to the city
council Thursday morning that the
committee had accomplished nothing.
Following the action of relieving the
committee with a vote of thanks, may
or c. E Kelly reappointed alderman
Clayton, chairman, and city engineer
George Ecpy, Wyche Greer. of the
Times, city attorney. Joseph NJ Nealon,
H. D. Slater of the Herald, and p. L.
tee to take up the work OF putting
through the scenic driveway
Before the former committee, COM
posed of alderman Clayton, former city
engineer Herbert Num-, George LIE
Baron, Lee OrndOrff and P. E. Kern,
was relieved, 1t had ben in existence
for about Is months. The project OF
having a scenic driveway for FL PaSO
was preached some time before the
appointment of the committee. The
proposed roadway was to run along the
rim of the mesa. Mr.. Kern prepared a
map of the highway. 1t was at first
believed that the property owners
along the route to be traverSed would
be glad to donate the land for the
highway in order to secure it. Mr..
Clayton declared that the property
owners approached would not consider
the proposition of gratuitOuSly giving
the land to the city.
In appointing the new committee
mayor Kelly stated that the proposed
scenic driveway would mean much to
the city and to the citizens.

nance, adopted Thursday morning,
