WE are firm believer in
education. We believe in the
erection of buildings that will not
only afford the necessary opportun-
ties for instruction, but that will be
strictly modern in sanitary mea-
sures. We believe in employing
the best of instructors for the gul-
dance of our children in their
schoolhood days. and we believe
in the and trustees and other public
school officials who will give their
best though, energy and action to
this end. The right kind of
school board will employ the right
kind of teachers; and they in their
turn will produce from our inlet
tered youth the keenest intellectual
minds of the future. Let us con-
serve the interests of our public
schools of today, for the instruc-
ton and control of our children in
their young days will bespeak their
standing, efficiency and success III
the latter years of life. If there is
one single thing that can be done
to improve educational conditions
locally, that thing should be done
promptly, cheertully, and without
bubble. Half measures today will
not make whole men and women
of tomorrow. We have an efficient
board of directors and they have
employed the best teachers they
could obtain, but the school work
in Dolores will not be the best
possible the coming term for the
reason that the teachers will again
have more pupils than they can
properly care for. This will be
especially true of the intermediate
and primary rooms. Let us plan
for the erection of a new school
building in Dolores before the
1917 IS term begins.

labors. He is to be educated up to such a point wherein he will be sa- tisfied with the success of the firm for which he works as his own sue cess. For that reason system of bonuses must be established which will invite a healthy spirit of com petition among the workers and among the departments of the in- dustrial plant, while at the same time giving the workers an in- creased incentive in the sense that they are actually receiving higher pay".
 Nor do the philanthropist stop there. The health of the worker is to be rigidly protected. There is no such useless labor as the labor of the sickly. It is just as much the duty to scrap a sickly or diseased worker as it is to scrap a bad tool or a defective piece of machinery The grey haired man whose hand trembles uncertainty from over | work, from heart trouble or from | easily aroused emotions, characteris- tics of incipient degeneracy, should be immediately scrapped as more 1 dangerous than defective machinery Yet it will not do to have such dere- licts around to point to the fate that Is in store for the workers when they reach the same stage. The Saged must be pensioned off and looked after so that their age may
 be productive.
 Health insurance, old age insur- ance, unemployment insurance less eagerly, are all urged. Dangerous
 place must be abolished and the in
 iured we'll compensated.
 In other words greater comfort;
 are to be provided. The workers
 are to be the serfs of an industria
 absolutism. They are to be shorr
 of every trace of freedom and perso
 nal liberty, but in turn are to b
 carefully safe guarded when a
 work, and regarded when not work. They are not to be neglected for it would under such condition , be as foolish to neglect a working man as it is now to neglect mule That is precisely the condition , which the workers are facing. It impossible not. to understand tha that is a condition towards industrl
 al management is tending. All tn
 technical and trade journals advo cate it. Industrial peace, industr'a contentment, community of interas
 and all the other folderols are urge l with this end in view. It is at ono
 the militarization and the feudaliza
 tion of industry. The workers ar to be as much automatons as ar soldiers. The ideal worker is tn
 one that says nothing but work e hard and obeys. Service and obed b ence are to be the watchwards, an

General Scott nor General Obregon
was convinced the time to break off
the negotiations had arrived and ten
tative arrangements for another con-
ference were made. The failure to re-
ceive from Carranza unequivocal au-
thority to conclude the negotiations
with General Scott regarding the

was offered as General Obregon's ex-

General Funston today studied maps
of the Big Bend region and of the
country in Mexico just south of that

1t was admitted at his headquarters
that by this time the raiding party had
escaped into the interior where their
pursuit would be even more difficult
than that undertaken by General
Pershing.
Residents Of the menaced border
towns continued today to appeal for
more adequate protection but the
scarcity of troops made it improbable
that their requests would be granted
Troops Not to Enter Mexico.
Whether the American troops will
cross into Mexico in their pursuit of
the raiders was not indicated by Cen
eral Funston, but it was pointed out
by other army officers that such ac-
ton was improbable as General Fun
ston could not get together. from the
troops available, a force of sufficient
strength to engage in such an expedi-
ton. 1t was iGtimated that if the
troops that have been sent south from
Marathon should encounter any of the
raiders they would be relentlessly pur-
sued, even if the trail led into Mexico,
but that there could be no intention
