NORMAL TAKES OVER
MUSIC DEPARTMENT
MISS cLuXToN IN THE FUTURE
WILL BE PAID A SALARY
FOR HER WORK

At a meeting Of the board of re-
gents Of the New Mexico Normal Uni
yersity last night it was decided that
the department of instrumental music
should be taken over by the school
instead Of being managed directly by
Miss Marguerite Cluxton. This de.
partment heretofore has been main
tanned by Miss Cluxton, who has re-
ceived payment for her services di-
rectly from the pupils. The work
she did for the school was not paid
for.
On account Of unusually heavy,
work for the instrumental music de-
partment this change was decided
upon. Miss Cluxton now will receive
a salary, and all tuition paid by pu-
pills for instrumental music training
will be paid directly to the institu-
tion. This plan will be followed un-
til next June. according to President
F. II. H. Roberts, and is in way an
experiment. If it proves a success it
will be continued. Miss Cluxton also
will have charge Of the Normal band,
in connection with her regular work
Q. G. zingg, who had charge OF
the band, will teach an additional
class.
The board of regents also approved
the program that has been arranged
for the unveiling on the frieze donat-
ed by Charles Ilfeid which will take
place on January rs. The regents also
made arrangements for the invitation
Of several guests Of honor. Those
who will be invited in this capacity
are w. G. Hayden, X. D. Goodall,
Margarito Romero, Lieutenant Gov
ernor e. G. de Baca, P. IT. IeNoir

SANTA FE TO CUT
ITS EXPENSE
ACCOUNT
RAILROAD WILL ENDEAvoR TO
REcoUP LOSSES BECAUSE OF
POOR BUSINESS

Superintendent F. L. Myers OF the
New Mexico division of the Santa Fe
Railway company, this morning an
nounced that a reduction of working
forces is to be inaugurated for the
purpose Of cutting down expenses.
This, however. is not fort he New Mex
leo division alone, but is being placed
in effect all over the system. A re-
cent meeting Of the superintendents
Of various divisions, held in Amarillo,
Texas, decided upon this policy and
it probably will continue until bust
ness picks up all over the system.
The cause is due to the general
lack Of business. The strike agitation
in Colorado has cut off to large de-
gree the coke, and coal business on
the railroad. while the crop failures
in Kansas and California last year
also have materially lessened the
usual mid-winter and spring traffic.
The automobile companies all over the
country are shipping fewer machines,
while a general decrease in all lines
of business is being experienced.
I'VE are cutting our forces here
with caution. said Superintendent NY
ers this morning, 1--WE 90 not wish
to take men entirely out Of service,
but are working them in way to re-
duce the hours of labor instead of the
number of men"
Mr.. Myers referred to the transpor-
tation department, but it is understood
the retrenchment policy will extend
as well to the shops, which are in the
department..
This action to a certain degree is
merely following of the usual plan
of the railroad company. Near the
close of each fiscal year the com
pany starts decreasing expenses. How.
sver, the various political and legis-
ative agitations all over the United
States have caused a serious situa- |
Jon, and coupled with the decrease in
al lines of business nave forced the
railroads to endeavor to recoup their
losses.
