BATTERY A OUT
TO TAKE LEAD IN
NATIONAL GUARD
Roswell Military Organization
to Make Strong Bid for
First Ranking in Militia of
United States,

SPECIAL cossesponprner TO moRNso JOURNAL
Roswell n. NJ, Jan. 5.-Battery A,
New Mexico National guard, is out
for the first ranking In the national
guard batteries in the United States.
The new regulation of the war depart
ment for the first time brings all the
seventy batteries in direct compet-
tion and will enable a ranking on all
the various departments of the work.
The Roswell battery has always
ranked among the first in the United
States, taking first above the Utah
battery In some respects. In others,
the local organization has been second
and third. 1t is the determination of
Capt Charles De Bremond that his
organization shall be first in every
department.
To this end the entire city and
county is taking an interest in the or
ganizatien and is making a commune
ity affair of it, Citizens here realize
that 1t will mean much to Roswell TO
send out the battery which takes first
place in the United States and are cn-
listing their support for the success
of the organization.
The war department has already
stationed eight horses here for Rat
terry AS use, and nine more will be
here soon. This will give them an
opportunity for maneuvers at frequent
intervals and it is planned to have
Joint maneuvers each Sunday after
noon in conjunction with the regu-
lar battalion parade of the New Mex
c07 Military Institute cadets.
To Increase Enlistment.
The enlistment of the battery is al
ready high but every effort will be
put forth to bring it up to fun war
strength. To stimulate interest
among the members and to aid Cap
tain De Bremond in his efforts TO
have his battery ranked first, the bus
mess men have begun a movement to
offer prizes to the sections making the
best showing during a series of pub
lie maneuvers, and possibly for each
time the battery appears. Other prizes
will also be offered to individuals
making the highest grades in exami-
nations for gunpers.
Battery A has always been source.
of pride to Roswell and the interest
now is greater than ever. The war
department has also recognized the
battery in many ways. Within an
other week or two it is said that there
will be more horses stationed here by
the government than withany other
national guard battery in the United
States. Mai. Gen. Hugh Scott. now
cief of staff, took much interest in
Battery A while he was stationed at
El paso and made several visits here
because of his interest.

TEACHERS ARE ASKED
FOR INFORMATION

fsPsciAL CORRESPONDENTS 70 MORNING JOURNAL
Santa Fe, Jan. 5.--County Superin-
tendent John V. Conway Is mailing
letters to all of the teachers i'll the
county for information to complete
his report to tho state department of
education:
I'm order to enable this office to
properly and efficiently make accur-
rate reports to the state department
of education, it has been deemed nec-
essary to call for certain information,
which all efficient tceahers should
have at their command
THE regular monthly reports are
entirely insufficient and do not meet
the requirements nor answer the pur-
pose, therefore it has been thought
necessary that weekly-post- -cardtre-
port be permanently established.
Nearly all the teachers are new
closely adhering to the requirements
of this report, but there are some,
whom we are still compelled to re-
mind concerning same.
>"Thcse weekly reports should always
contain information concerning the
day school work, violations of attend
ance law, interest manifested in che
moonlight school, and enrollments
at day and night sessions during the
week. The districts are supposed to
reimburse the teachers for the postal
cards used.
'As these reports are repeated to
the state department, it is to the per-
sonal interest Of the teachers to mail
them promptly. This will indicate
personal interest fthe teachers in
charge of~our schools.
"Our special census is nearly all in,
only five schools remain unreported.
If you have not sent in your census,
do so AT once and avoid another re-
minder. We are anxious for an early
compilation Of the county census in
order to determine the illiteracy of
our county, but this cannot be done
until we have received complete re-
ports from all the teachers.
Most of our teachers are prompt
with their reports and it is indeed a
pleasure to work with them. We hope
all will get the habit of prompt and
accurate reports. and thereby get in
line for more efficient school work.
