for just $4,000, 600. That must seem like
an enormous sum to some people, who be-

some linotype machines. The plant which

THE TIME HAS COME

Whether the outlawry which has sprung
up on this border within the past few
weeks has been the result Of some dia-
bolical plot by American capitalists, de-
signed to prevent the recognition of the
Constituencies in Mexico, or TO bring
about Intervention in that country or not
which is believed by many people and
ncwspapers-whether this has been in
reality a made-to-order disorder, or
merely the outerowth Of conditions or
plots by crazy agitators working along
some such line as that Indicated in the
"Plan Of San Diego" the fact remains that
the condition here now has become such
tina it can no longer be tolerated.
The murders at the Fresnos, plant yes
terday are the signal for action by every
self respecting, loyal citizen of Texas, liv-
ing on this border.
; The time has come when every law
abiding citizen must do his part to protect
the people who are living on this border.
A heinous crime was committed by the band
Of desperadoes who killed those men. That
crime must be punished. The blood of
those innocent men must he avenged. This
outlawry must cease!
The time has come when every law
abiding citizen on this border must come
forward and give assurance that he Is
ready to do his part towards the suppress
sion of this reign of disorder and crime.
The Herald is assured that a very large
proportion Of those citizens Of this section
who are of Mexican blood-probably the
majority of them-abhor the crimes that
nave been committed by these marauders.
These also should align themselves on the
side Of the law. There can be no middle
ground. Every man who Is one the side Of
law and order here must show himself az
such. 1t is not enough to keep quiet and
merely condemn. 1t is time TO act. Let
those who are on the side Of the law come
out and prove it. Let them come forth and
help to stamp out this o%utlawry.
This is no political embroglio. This is
a question in which every upright citizen
will prove where he stands. Let every
citizen of this state residing in this sec
ton realize that he must be either for law
and the punishment of crime, or he j.
against it.
Let them realize that any man who pro-
tects or gives shelter to those murderers
is as guilty as they are.

COMMUNITY cIvIcs.


Community civics helps the child TO
know the meaning of his community life,
not merely a lot of facts about it," says a
bulletin just issued by the United States
bureau Of education. This bulletin was
prepared by fonr mer'bers Of the committee
ON social studies. of the National Educa-
ton association = DR.. j. Lynn Barnard,
School Of Pedagogy, Philadelphia; f. w.
Carrier, principal Of Wilmington, (Mass.)
high school Arthur W. Dunn, specialist in
civic education, United States bureau OF
education, and Clarence ID. Kingsley of the
Massachusetts board cf education.
'The significance of the term 'commun-
ity GIVES does not lie in its geographical
implication" says the bulletin, "but APP
plies this point of view TO national com
murity as well. Emphasis is laid upon the
local community because it is the one with
which every child citizen has most intimate
relations, and for that reason il is easier
for him to enter into actual cooperation
with it,
The authors of the bulletin make clear
that the term citizenship" is used broadly.
The "good citizen" they say, "is a person
who habitually conducts himself with
proper regard for the welfare Of the com
munity of which he is a member, and i
active and intelligent in his cooperation
with his fellow members to that end"
Community c%ivics, according 10 the bull
letin, should be taught in the elementary
grades of the public schools and should
be continued in a more comprehensive
course in the first year Of the high school.
"Many pupils do not enter high school at
all, and those who do should already have
begun to acquire habits of civic thought
and action. The greater maturity of the
high school pupils makes possible the de-
velopment of phases of the subject that
are impracticable in the elementary school.
"Many courses in civics fail" the auth
ors think, "'because they fix attention upon
the machinery of government rather than
upon the elements of community welfare
for which government exists. They famil-
l~iarize the pupil with the manipulation of
the social machinery without showing him
the Importance of the social ends for which
this machinery exists. A lesson in COM
munity civics is not complete unless it
leaves with the pupils a sense of his re-
sponsibility, and results in right action. To
attain these ends is perhaps the most diff
Ifcult and delicate task of the teacher"
"Much civic instruction." declares the
bulletin, has been ineffective because it
has left the pupil to work out for himself
the application of general principles. The
translation of principle into conduct i
more difficult than the comprehension of
the principles themselves. While we urge
that the citizen should engage in these ac-
Invites as far as opportunity offers, II i
necessary to cultivate a motive sufficiently
strong to lead him actually to do so. This
motive is to be fosnd in the common in
%terest, which includes his interests, at least
until such time as an ideal altruism may
lead to the placing of the interest of others
and Of the community above the interest of
self"
