The Open Door.

The public schools is the open dool
of democracy. Thru it humanity is
freeing itself from bondage. Thru II
humanity is more and more coming IN
to possession of its rights. When
Martin Luther proclaimed the duty OF
civic communities to educate their
youth he created the means by which
society might free itself from the SUI
perstitutions that beclouded religion,
from the thraldom of castles, from the
Injustice Of governments, from the mis-
cries resulting from ignorance OF the
laws of health.
The New Testament's idea of the
open door that no man shall smut,
took on new meaning and gave
new hope to mankind. The struggle
for the rights of all men to life, free
dom, property, contract and educa-
ton began in earnest but is still lar
from consummation. But the door of
is ever widening through
this agency of the public school.
Protection to the child to all chill
dren, in this right to an education is
being granted through compulsory ed
ucation laws, protecting the child
against the selfshness of parents and
the greed of industry, and race antag-
onism. The door of opportunity is ever
opening wider and no man can shut it.
He who tries to shut it might as well
sweep back the tide with a broom

One cold November afternoon the
contestants for the basket ball team
were getting in trim for the coming
season. They found they were one
man short. so they loked on the side
lines and beheld a stout youth who
looked good to the coach. but who
was just little timid. He, after a
great deal OF pleading, was persuaded
to fill the vacancy. He astonished
himself and the rest of us. He showed
that he did have some basket ball
talent stored away beneath his good
natured timidity." He proved himself
more fitted to be on the team on his
first visit TO another town. He held
his head, likewise his man. Smit was
just little awkward in the beginning,
but after a little practice, overcame
this misfortune. The funny thing
about the lad is a power which no
other boy on the squad possesses;
this odd feature is his ability 10 get
along without the girls. Smit does
not seem to have any ues for the fair

ATHLETICS.

In the previous editorial we were
30 lost in the merits of the Varsity
basket ball team, that we said moth
ing of our scrubs. We owe a lot Of
credit to this bunch of loyal youths.
They come out to practice as often
as does the varsity and as result
of this continued practice. the high
school can boast of as good a scrub
team as has been formed in the pre-
vious seasons. We varsity five have
to do some tall sCrapping' to down
this bunch Of resolute youths, and
team work is about the only thing
that does this.
From the material on this years
scrub team some excellent men will
be developed, who will make valuable
substitutes as members of the fu-
ture varsity quintet. The following
especially, have been making very
good showings on the scrub team:
Russell Harris, who is noted among
the scrubs for his ability to stick with
his man, and his grit; Robert Harris
who is the best goal shooter the scrul
team has ever passed: Robert
Whipple, who, although not in the
high school, has assisted the scrubs
In making many hard fought battles
with the varsity. He will prove to be
valuable help in the weight of the
next years team. Lee Macarthur Is
also a credit to the team.

out victorious, with score of Is to 2.
These girls have planned to have sew
omre games before the close of the

of good natured rivalry between them,
these games will prove interesting

CHINESE MERCHANT ARRESTED FUR
 ASSAULT

Charles Los, a Chinese merchant who conducts store near the Prin- cess Theatre was arrested this week on charge of assault, the complain ing witness being Casimiro Chacen. The hearing was held before Justice Address when the charge was dis missed.
 1t tranSpired at the hearing that the young son of Chacon came to Los store about o'clock one morning to buy some candy and after arousing Los by knocking on the door he was told that the store was not open un- til an hour or two later. The boy repeated the performance a couple of mornings following at the same hour and Los finally lost his patience and administered a fatherly reinstatement to the disturber of his peace.
 Chacon, not being satisfied with the decision of the court, started boycott on the store and pickets were stationed in front advising people not to trade there. The picketing was maintained but day or two when they were withdrawn and the busi- ness was resumed as usual
 The whole business looked like frame-up and failed of accomplishing its purpose.

Collecting for I. w. W.'s-

Clifton people have been approach ed this week by stranger who is collecting funds for the members of the I. W. w. who are being held at Columbus, N. M. It is reported that he is meeting with but little success in his activities here. It is not known whether he is an authorized collector or whether he is doing little financ- ing on his own account, but in either case he should receive no encourage ment from the Clifton public as the government is taking care of the men at Columbus and they are in no par ticular need of funds. If grafter he should be ordered out of town. With the present industrial conditions para lyzed we have need of all of our
