ACCIDENT MONDAY
Mrs. Joe Mendoza Meets Tragic
Death on Castle Greek Road.

The overturning of an automobile
on sharp turn on Castle creek above
Mountain Home Monday afternoon
caused the death of Mrs. Joe Men
diola of 307 East Bannock street.
Mr.. Mendoza, who was driving the
car, and the children who were with
them, were but slightly hurt Mrs.
Mendoza was injured internally, the
heavy car having pinned her down
falling on her breast and stomach ard
she died about an hour after being re
leased. The body was brought to
Boise at 230 O'Clock this morning
and is at the Schraiber & Sidenfaden
morgue.
According to inormation received
here, Mr.. Mendoza was driving down
Castle creek and while rounding a
sharp turn the car skidded between
IL and Is inches, going over the
grade. 1t turned half over, landing
on the rocks some II feet below.
The oldest boy jumped clear of the
car as it went over and was not In
jured and the top saved the other
children from receiving injuries other
than a few bruises.
Mrs. Mendoza was riding beside
her husband and was pinned beneath
the car. Mr.. Mendoza managed to
crawl from the wreck and tried to
lift the car off his wife but was un-
able to do so. He then ran for as
sistance and about three-quanters of
a mile below secured help. The car
was then lifted from Mrs. Mendoza,
but she was injured to such an ex-
tent that she died within a short
time after being released.
Mr.. Mendoza and his eldest son ac-
companied the body to Boise and the
other children came in another car,
previously.
Mrs. Mendoza was we'll known in
Mountain Home and was prominent in
Basque circles both here and Boise

THE SCHOOL And
SCHOOL PATRONS
Need of Publicity is Becoming More
Apparent in all Parts of the
Country.

The necessity for publicity in
school work is now generally real
lied At the recent conference Of
Idaho educators in Boise it was de-
epded to issue monthly school bull
letin The bureau of education of
the interior takes the same view in
a report on SCHOOL Progress in
the smaller Cities, just issued, which
says:
School boards that are managing
the schools abby and honestly do not
fear to turn on the searchlight. The
sentiment is growing among school
boards that the public should know
how its money is expended. In the
most progressive schools, the board
and the superintendent are presenting
facts to the people either in printed
reports, in newspaper articles, or by
both.
''Some schoolmen, however, object
to furnishing the newspapers with
school information on the ground thai
they are tehreby advertising them
selves. A superintendent who was
complaining about lack of interest
among the parents in the schools Of
his city was asked whether he re.
ported the progress of the schools
through the local papers, He replied
that he did not believe in advertising
himself. He failed to grasp the idea
that school news is not for the pur
pose of boosting a superintendent;
besides being legitimate news, it
1alls attention to the needs of tn,
work of the school Sc that the school
may become more efficient.
In several cities, such as Fredo-
MIA, Kansas, there is an educational
issue of the local paper, In some
ether cities there are daily school
news notes, On the whole, the pub
lie is becoming better informed re-
garding The schools than it was a few
ears ago The tendency is toward
greater publicity by means of printed
reports and newspaper articles,
THAT the schools can work to ad.
vantage through the women's civic
improvement clubs and through parent
teacher associations has been thoro-
ughly demonstrated In many of the
smaller cities. Such clubs are often
instrumental in the introduction of
kindergartens, manual training, and
domestic science. The superintend-
ent Of one school utilized the women's
clubs of the city by asking that each
club give some consideration to the
question: What can be done to i'm
prove the efficiency Of your schools?
Each club discussed the question and
sent a representative to present toI
the teachers the ideas of the club. In
the opinion of the superintendent of
schools in that city, the plan aroused
interest among the women OF the
city in better schools Statesman.
