- - ONDITIONS for Ell Paso for the
new year look better than they
~ they have in a long time" said
A. F. Kerr. Indications all point to
general betterment in the copper in
dustry and this, coupled with the early
completion of the dam. means prosper
ity for this city. There is one bust
ness in FL Paso that has helped the
city a great deal and which has been
generally overlooked. That is the deal
ing in Mexican money. For a time this
was bringing in thousands of dollars
gold, a day into FL Paso. This COndi-
ton is somewhat changed now, as
large quantities of the money are avail
able in Mexico City, but while it lasted
il put a great deal of money into circu-
latiOn in the city

1.-THE high school manual training
classes are making the kindergarten
tables for the use of the Lamar school
kindergarten, said W. A. Burk-
The material is furnished by the
school board and the pupils do the
work in the training classes. IhlS
served a two fold purpose. for the eX-
pense of the new equipment IS re-
duced and the pupils get the benefit OF
the practical work. Among the plans
for this department for the next year
the new high school, in the way Of
tables for the commercial department
and drawing tables for the mechanical

My trip to Fl Paso has been most
enjoyable" said George E. Patton,
member of the New York detective
force.
1T is very seldom that New York de-
tectives are called upon to come this
far into the southwest. We frequent
" are called to St. Louis, Chicago, and
other cities in the central West, but
FL Paso is little off our beat. I have
seen many things to interest me here,
or any other city 1 have visited, and
I am going back with a different
idea of the southwest. El PasO is a
hustling place. but the people find time
to be hospitable, and you can de-
pend upon me to talk nice about the
place"
"El Paso has made a very good show /
ing with its first made in FL Paso' |
exhibit" said R g. COlmer, of Houston |
You have the right idea. and should |
follow it UP with an exhibit every year, !
adding attractions that will induce an /
attendance from the
surrounding country. Houston has its J
'Made-in-HOustOn" show every year, in |
addition to the No-Tsu-Ho carnival |
which is given every fall The latter !
could be greatly improved upon if, in !
addition to the fun, there were an eN- !
hibit similar TO yours The No-TsU-Ho !
is for fun only, and only secondary /
is given to industrial eX- /
hibits.'
THE public will have the first op- !
to hear one Of the school |
opera programs at the graduation ex- !
ercises of the January class of the high
school, said Mrs. Leila T Moore, su- /
pervisor of music of the public schools. /
The opera program of Martha will /
be given IN the same way that the :
semi-annual programs are presented [
at the Lamar school. At the Lamar
cational and not for exhibition pur-
poses-and as the large number of up
per grade children fill the auditorium
for the Lamar school the public gen
orally is not invited to attend. We are
encouraged with the results of these
the musical tastes Of the school chill
iren."
Il have seen Peg o. Ny Heart in
Los Angeles. and it is a fine play"
said Rev. c. L Overstreet. TT has !
sermon tucked away in its lines and 1t
s well worth everyOne's seeing. It is
not often that q minister can recon-
mend a play as being one which he
knows his congregation would like. But
Peg and her pup are well worth going /
10 see, and I intend to see it when il !
comes to FL PasO. These plays, I be-
ieve, have a wholesome moral effect,
or they teach. a good lesson and fur
lish good, sane, wholesome entertain
