case so convincingly in Sunday school,
that as a result eleven French or
phanS were adopted by the Methodist
Sunday school and the other Sunday
schools are each adopting one or
more. In Grant county it is proposed
that every rural and town school
adopt at least one child One woman
in Eddy county wrote for a French
orphan girl to he the same age as her
own darling daughter so that when
ever she made dress for her daugh-
ter she could also make one for the
orphan girl. In Quay county, one
mother wrote fine letter asking that
the committee hurry up in assigning
an orphan to her so that she might
send the orphans name and address
to her son who is with the American
expedtionarv forces. She expects her
son to visit the orphan and see the
child whose foster brother he is. In
Union county, member of the county
committee accompanied by two
friends, in two hours visiting found
ten homes which agreed to adopt an
orphan each. Thus from every side
comes response, an enthusiasm, a
spirit of beautiful self-sacrifice which
proves that New Mexico will do its
share for the common good as it has
in so many other things.

Protect Your Town.

Protect your own town and thereby
show that you are in favor of pro-
lection. If protection is good for the
nation it is good for the town. AS
townspeople we should favor our
town above every other, as the
growth and development of it is what
will enhance the value of all prop
erty, both in and about it. Then
buy your dry goods, groceries, hard
ware, furniture, etc., at home; have
printing, your blacksmithing, your
shoemaking done at home; patronize
home in every instance that you can
The success of our merchants and me-
chanics means new business houses
and residences, additional demands
for labor of various kinds. To the
farmer a first-class town affords a
better market for his grain, a better
trading point, and such a town is
bound to increase the value of his
land. Unquestionably Gin union
there is strength" Let us protect
our town.

As To Tins.

The tip has no place where labor is
recognized as honorable service. 1t
is a survival of the old master and
servant days, when gratuities by per-
sons to the manner born were given
as a reward to severity. The tip goes
always from superior to an infe-
rior, never from servant to master.
1t is not a recognition of service, for
the inferior never tips the superior
for service rendered. That would be
considered an insult. $685.
This debasing custom, once COM
mon to all labor, has been eliminated
from all but a few branches of SER
vice, such as walters, porters, bar
bers and servants. The practice is
so generally despised that attempts
have been made to legislate it out of
existence. But that is wrong use
of the law-making power, and will
not, without, cooperation of tiptak-
ers, cure the evil.
The victim of the system must be
reached. He must be shown that even
acceptance of the tip does not in
crease his wage, for as the gratuities
go up his wages go down. There are
places where walters and porters pay
for the privilege of serving without
wages. But, it addition to its being
useless as means of increased earn
ings it becomes burden by fixing
- e.
riority.
