about the institution over which he
presides. The school buildings We're
overcrowded two years ago, were
more overcrowded last year and are
crowded to the limit this year Con-
| ditions now would justify the stand
ing room only sign and unless the
next legislature provides for more
buildings, DIR. Roberts must hang out
a placard with tie inscription. NO
more students can be Accommodated
While it is always interesting to see
the splendid equipment of the New
Mexico Normal university, the almost
endless faunal and floral specimens in
the department of natural history, the
well-equipped laboratories for the APP
Piled sciences and the examples of
the splendid work done in the art de-
partment, the visitor just now turns
with the greatest interest to the de-
partment of manual training
There was no room for the manual
training work, if other students were
to be taken care Of Manual training
is practical, if it is anything. To meet
an emergency DR. Roberts purchased
about $1,000 worth of building ma
terial and 1903 boys in the manual
/ training school went to work on the
erection Of a building forty feet wide
and eighty feet long, and they now
InaVe it completed. New Mexico being
too niggardly to pay for the work the
Toys donated their services to the
state regarding it as part Of their
studies The result of it all is a build
ing Of ample proportions for the inn
mediate needs Of the school upon
which more than $4,000 worth of la
Dor has been expended without cost
ing the state one dollar.
Here is how the boys regard their
work. The head of the manual train
ing school, on examination day, asked
each student to write, as briefly as
possible, in the teachers presence, his
opinion Of the manual training re-
ceived in the construction of the build
ing. Here is one of the opinions.

construction of the building from the

are more enthusiastic over it than
over shop work and work better out

build something; perhaps a garage.

he does he will know something ahout |
