Christmas will soon be with

fire works of any kind inside of
City limits. Now | want the
children to have a good time
Now let all take their fire works
and go home and have their fun
and not on any of the streets OF
the city.
For as every one knows it is
very dangerous, not only to
children themselves. but people
with teams. Our friends and
neighbors coming in from the
country want some assurance
that they may come to town
without danger to themselves or
teams. 1t makes a more kindly
feeling between people to know
that all feel considerate toward
one another. | shall ask the
City marshall to enforce the
laws. So please keep off the
streets to shoot your fire works.

In Chicago the other day in

Judge refused to allow a fifteen
year-old daughter to claim a
third of ter fathers income for
her education, chiefly musical.
The Judge was more than right.
Most OF the money put on the
average girls education is badly
spent. anyhow. There isnot one
woman out of 100 who when she
is % can show that her music,
her painting or her dancing, that
she had as a girl, has helped her
to become ar efficient woman.
If a girl really has talent it will
show before she is fifteen, and
If she has none then the money
spent Tor indifferent teachers rs
wasted. In refusing to order
the father to contribute $1,000
monthly for his daughters edu-
cation, the court said; Il have

Any plan to be consid- cred, it is admitted eliminates Huerta, Carranza and Villa, as well as any others close to them since the death of Madero.
