HIGH CARNVALIBlC SUCCESS
HIGH SCHOOL JAAGMED WITH
PEOPLE FOR FETE-W1IL BE
ANNUAL. AFFAIR

The various high school funds, such
as athletic, music, dramatic and pia-
no, were swelled to great extent by
an indoor carnival held at the high
school Saturday night. The carnival
was the first of its kind ever attempt
ed here but was such huge success
that it promises to be an annual fair.
The gymnasium and first floor of
the building were thronged with
people from 1880 p. m. until
nearly midnight. Several refreshments
and lunch booths had to be closed up
long before the carnival was over be-
cause they were inadequately supplied.
Approximately $3.50 was cleared on the
affair.
In the normal rooms was q Japanese
garden, where tea and waters was
served. Japanese articles were also
sold in this place. All the attendants
were dressed in Japanese costume and
the sight was very pretty one. Next
to the Japanese garden was the check
ing room, where all articles of cloth
ing were checked for nominal fee.
Then came the country store, where
various articles could be purchased.
Next to this was the fountain Of
youth, where, for a few cents, one g
complexion would be suddenly changed
and all wrinkles, if one had any, made
to disappear. At the other end of the
first floor was a shine stand, wonder
we'll, and fortune tellers' booth. In
the manual training room a minstrel
show was given and this proved one
| Of the best drawing cards Of the car
nival. In the gymnasium were the re-
freshment booths, fish pond, Topsy
Turvy land, chair. charged with cleo
tricity, bowling alleys, and dancing
pavilion. The high school orchestra
furnished music for the dance. This
attraction probably was better patron
ICED than any other attraction in the
carnival. Half of the gymnasium floor
was roped off for the dancing.
| To see that business was continually
good in all places, the carnival employ.
ed a judge and a big crew of police
men. The policemen would arrest a
| person on the least provocation and
| they would be hailed before the Judge,
who would sentence them according to
the size Of their pocketbooks. Some
he would require to buy certain mum
Der of tickets, for the dance, or so
many bottles Of pop or cones of. ice
cream, etc., etc.
All in all the carnival was most
amusing for both young and old and
| everyone will look forward to the next
one with eager anticipation.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Rocky Ford.-A campaign to induce
the farmers to cultivate every foot Of
land in Otero county is being prose
cuted by the Agricultural Association.
1t Is already assured that there will
be more in the foodstuffs line raised
In this county the coming season than
ever before. So far as the canvass
has been made there will be no land
that is not under cultivation. One
drawback is the scarcity of water In
the bitches. Unless rain is plentiful
this spring many farmers will be un'
able TO get their crops out Of the
ground.
Several Of the farmers have eS.
pressed themselves as In favor OF
taking the land that they had In
tended putting In cantaloupes and
growing produce. some feeling that II
the present prices Of foodstuffs should
keep up for few months there would
be little demand for cantaloupes.
The school children are being en-
couraged to cultivate tho unoccupieo
lots and there will be more home gar
dens this season than were ever be
fore known.
The farmers of Otero county will
not be found wanting when 1t comes
to the production Of produce Of all
kinds.
The Agricultural Association is also
considering plan for the marketing
Of all the produce grown by the farm
ers at the least possible cost to the
producer and for the best market
price.

Rllnd Develop Other Senses.

The man who is born blind develops
his other senses to a degree that seems
almost uncanny to sighted people, says
a writer in London Tit-Blts. His
herring forms one of the principal
channels through which he obtains
knowledge of what Is taking place
around him. The slightest variation in
sound conveys a wealth of informa-
ton to him, because he learns to as
sociate these sounds with their origin
and the manner in which they are pro-
duced. For shape and texture he de-
ponds upon his touch, and the touch
of man who has never had sight is
wonderfully sensitive and delicate. To
find his way about he depends upon his
sense of direction and obstacle, which
have become highly developed owing
to the fact that he has always been
entirely dependent upon them. For
that part of his education which can
be derived from books he depends on
Braille.
