BY THE WAY


member OF the committed which
drafted the petition sent to the
Senate and house OF this state, 10
session nov assembled, | deem IL
wise TO not remain silent with re-
ference to some OF the insinuAtions
made ia these column last week
concerning the work Of this com.
mittee.
The article to which | refer Is
the petition made by the Captain
Commercial Club TO the same legis-
lature asking that no action be
taken whereby the Carrizozo high
school should be allowed to parti.
cipate in the county funds appro-
priated for county high school pur-
poses.
One statement, in particular, ap
peals to us as being decidedly
un~warranted; and was TO the eff ect
that, we're the petition Of local
citizens granted it would practical
ly remove the Lincoln County High
School from CAPTAIN to Carrizozo
We supposed, Of course. that the
educational center OF the county
would be aware Of the fact that,
in the case Of action favorable TO
Carrisozo, this school could realize
only one-third of the funds the first
year. allowing the nov established
school to fully accommodate itself
to the new order Of things, aud be In
no way embarrassed
The trouble with these gentlemen
is that they have not the best in.

mand for the past two years, has

excellent showing as IN established

proposition, which is all in the world
the Carrizoso people are advocating
We do not discredit the legally.
established school nor the class OF
work which it ID doing.
But the past two years have been
amply sufficient to demonstrate "A
number of pertinent facts. Princi.
pal among them, that the Captain
school, with the entire funds ev.
clusively at its service, and the
prestige which the name, Lincoln
County High SCHOOL, would ma
turally attach to the institution
has served barely more than one.
half the number which the high
school in Carrizozo has been able
TO serve with bare resources OF the
district. Furthermore. statistics
to which all interested parties may
find ready access show that the
section OF the county which would
naturally seek the CAPTAIN high
school. even though II we're not
the county high school, has u high
school enrolment OF only "a per

school shows a percentage in the

Evidently these facts are not
mere accidents; there must he some
reason for them But as an Obscure

It was late in the evening of June 25,

entire country was ringing with the
tragic news that Harry Thaw had slain
stanford White. The setting for the
fatal attack was the Madison Square

have an awful time crossing
the Delaware in these days
Of searchlight warfare In
that historic night when a storm was
raging over New Jersey and Pennsyl-
vania the colonial general took the
British at Trenton by surprise. He
found the redcoats in the midst Of
gayeties. little thinking an enemy was
in the vicinity
Suddenly the British realized the
colonial army was within the gates.
Washington and his men had dashed
into the fortresses out Of the snow
storm. They had caught the sentries
peerinS helplessly into the darkness Of
the night and the storm Marching
into Trenton they utterly surprised the
British and captured the entire garri-
son.
Should Washington try to duplicate
the feat today he would be seen before
his boats left the Pennsylvania banks
Of the Delaware. No matter how dark
the night. no matter how fierce the
storm. the searchlight Of the defenders
would cut off possibility Of surprise.
The Japanese emphasized the value
of night attacks. and since that war
much has been done to minimize their
effectiveness. There Is one kind of
searchlight with which all armies are
equipped. 1t consists Of a generator
driven by a gasoline engine mounted
on an automobile. Artillery can be
used with deadly effect when playing
on an assaulting column.

Hidden Virtues.

Apropos OF the discussion on
George w. Perkins and the Harvester
trust, Representative Quinn said:
IF George w. is to be believed, his
trust is of goodness such as is
scarcely seen on this poor earth Of
ours. The trust, like old Wash White,
undoubtedly has hidden virtues.
"Old Washington White and young
Calhoun Clay entered. you know. a
dancing competition. But age was
against Wash, and his boots, a pair
of cowhides six or seven sizes too
large, were against him, too. The
prize was awarded to the younger
man.
Look-a-yere, Misto Empire Uncle
Wash growled, 'whaffor 20 give de

Psychology Of Speed.

There are many sins of civilization,
but speed Is one Of them and the
latest born, lanents the Ohio State
Journal. Except in a courtroom,
speed is an obstacle. It Is in the way
Of true success, for 1t is Indifferent to
all the laws of life. A man who goes
so fast that he fails to see the quiet
and beautiful things along the way is
injuring his mind and breaking up
his nerves. II we had family OF sew
eral children and put them in an
automobile and raced them OF at
20 miles an hour, we would regard
ourselves their mortal enemy, for they
will never grow up with their nerves
steady or their intellects lively.
The alienists say that in 200 years
the human family will all be lunatics
It won't be that long, If the speed oil
autos is kept up to over twenty miles
an hour. Indeed, many of these wilt
and reckless drivers are getting thai
way now, and they are pulling every
body down with them. But save tn.
children, and II the old lunatics mus
| have their way, take the children ou
and keep them at home.

Master and Friend.

Pitchoune. who might have been
considered as one of the infinitesimal
atoms in the economy of the universe,
ran over the sands away from his
master He was an inflnitesimal dot
on the deserts face. He was only
small Irish terrier in the heart of the
Sahara. His little wiry body and his
color seemed to blend with the dust.
His eyes were dimmed by hunger and
thirst and exhaustion, but there was
the blood of fighter in him and he
was a thoroughbred. Nevertheless,
he was running away. It looked very
much like 1t. There was no one to
comment on his treachery; had there
been, Pitchoune would not have run
far.
It was not an ordinary sight to SEQ
on the Sahara small Irish terrier
going as fast as he could.
