FRANK FAVIER Is CALLED

Far beyond expression in words is the loss suffered today
by the community and by his friends in the passing of Frank
Favier. Stricken by sudden illness. at the very prime of man
hood. his death comes as a shock that is nothing short of stag
gering to those who knew him well, particularly in view of his
favorable condition during the past few days. The heartfelt
sympathy of the entire community will go out to his devoted
wife and two little children, bereft of husband and father at a
time when his loss must be most keenly felt.
To those who knew him intimately any eulogy of Frank
Favier is superfluous. They know that his good deeds are
numbered by legion and his generosity and sympathy were
unbounded, that he possessed high ideals and lived up to them,
that in a characteristic spirit of self-effacement he Obeyed i'm
plicilv the Injunction to conceal from one hand what the other
gave. Even his closest associates could not know of more than
a small part of the good he has done, but many whom he has
helped will bear witness to his unselfish charity and sympathy
He will be sorely missed.

THE MEANIN OF WAR SAVINGS STAMPS

1t is a mistake to look upon War Savings stamps as small
change cleaners intended only to raise a few OF the lnnumer-
able millions needed to finance the great undertaking to which
we are committed. We do not measure the value OF these IN
vestmentm mediums by the amount of money so Obtained we
measure it rather by the universal nature of the appeal which
meaning of the war to every individual of thinking age in the
United States of America.
Those who regard the sale of War Savings stamps as a
side enterprise or as something that appeals mainly to children
totally miss the purpose behind a plan which is one OF the
best thus far evolved for war purposes. In the last analysis
the selling of these stamps is the fitting of the whole nation 10
sustain the burden of the war. 1t is the application to war IL
all of the American people in direct support of that gallant
minority among them who have answered the call u arms II
prepared themselves for the firing line.
This war will be won by steady, persistent endeavor
rather than bv spurts and spasmodic eXertion. We have mad
great and admirable outbursts of effort in Liberty Loan cam
paigns. and later we shall witness sudden and tremendous 81
forts in battle. But we rely upon something else as the
handspring of our war enterprise. That something else is
the steady and sustained expenditure of national energy at all
times and under all conditions. That alone makes decisive
victory possible in battle.
The buying of War Savings stamps. Systematically ana
continuously. corresponds to the work done IN the trenches
and behind the lines when there is nothing of Importance to
report" 1t is like the work of the sailors on vigil III the Dan
ger zone during the long days when they only watch and
wait for submarine attack. 1t is like the quiet, steady beat OF
the heart as it stores up the reserve force and energy that
responds when the call for extra eXertion comes.
Again, the buying of stamps at frequent and regular IN
tervals makes for that national thrift, without which we could
not hope to win. There are not enough rich men IN America
to buy victory. even if = we confiscate all their wealth. The
war can not be won merely by imposing heavy taxes. 1t can
be won only by the united effort of all the people helping with
every resource at their command. The War Savings stamps
supply the final and conclusive answer to the question: How
can we all help?

CONSERVING TECHNICAL MEN

When we witnessed the first rush of our brave college
boys to serve, and to save their country from invasion, we re-
ioiced: it proved that the spirit of weak surrender, which had
been preached so long in our midst, had not destroyed the man.
hood of the rising generation. These youths represented the
finest product of American culture, and were the sons of fami-
lies in which both intellectual and moral ideals are perpetuated.
We were doing, therefore, the most superbly democratic thing
that could be done; we were sending the flower of our civiliza-
ton to mingle with those less favored by circumstance in COM
mon devotion to the great cause of country and freedom.
This was building for a future that was to be enriched
with sympathetic understanding between men of every walk in
life, men who should ever after be linked by subtle bonds forg-
ed in the heat of an unspeakable inferno. 1t was glorious to
witness this immolation of our college men. pro
patrial Then we reflected that a large proportion of those
splendid youths represented the nations hope for a continu-
ance of the work of technical detail in making and keeping
ready for the great struggle before us, and for the days to come.
We sounded a warning; these, men could not be spared from
the urgent business of using science to overcome the enemy,
who, above all things, also applies science to his work OF de-
struction.
The empiricist, suddenly and but partly trained, can never
replace those grounded. as are the young men from our colleg-
es. in the fundamentals of technology. The result would be
rapid deterioration of the work done behind the lines, inferior
iy of equipment at the front and the risk of disaster for us all.
The appeal to restrain these technical students became general,
and the war department issued orders putting 1t within the
power of such as might show appropriate standing in their
studies to elect an assignment to continue their studies until
they should have completed their academic training.
This. however, has proved ineffective. The spirit of sacri-
flee has been reborn in America, and our young men will not
exercise an option to which the slightest color of Stacking"
can be given. They still desert the laboratory and the lecture
room for the daring exploits of soldiers active in a kind of de-
Tense the reality and heroism of which all can understand. The
threatened shortage of men to command the chemical factor
les, the steel plants, the copper refineries, the electrical works,
has become so alarming that the engineering council has pass
ed resolutions that should encourage the administration to take
prompt action.
This is urgently needed at the present moment, when the
crlleoes and universities are closing for the summer. It is =
time when under-classmen are most likely to enlist. The prob
lem can be met only in the manner suggested; young men now
in the course of technical training and showing aptitude for
their work must receive orders to persist until such time as a
change of policy might seem misunderstanding and Scientific

NORWAY PROTECTS HLEGTTIMATE CHILDREN

Rights of ilegitimate children are to be recognized in Nor
way, according to a report issued by the Childrens Bureau of
the United States Department of Labor.
Norwegians have now made the state instead of the mother
responsible for establishing paternity. The state holds both
parents equally and continuously responsible for the ilegiti-
mate child, who shall be entitled to maintenance, training and
education from both its father and mother"
The attitude is, according to the report, that illegitimacy is
a welfare problem that must be solved for the sake of the child
and the state.

PESOS At A DISCOUNT

Pesos are not being issued by the Mexican mint, ana prac-
tically none are in circulation. All the silver now being coined
in that country is made into fractional currency, on which a
larger profit accrues to the treasury because of its lower fine
ness. All the local minis have been closed, and coinage is done
at Mexico CITY only. The result is that no favorable markets
exist for the output from the smaller mines. The cost OF trans
porting bullion to Mexico City, for example, from the west
coast. is so great as to be practically prohibitive, and no insur-
ance can be obtained. The result is to force the producers
either to ship to the United States at considerable cost and in
convenience. or to sell at a heavy discount from the market
value to commercial houses, most of which are controlled by
Germans.-Mining Press.

Chinese Phsasants for Luna County.

Fred Sherman expects to receive
within the next few days, trio Of
Chinese "ringneck" pheasants, from
the state game warden's department,
which is trying to further the prOpa-
cation Of this beautiful species Of
game bird in New Mexico. The birds
will be installed in a pen prepared
for their reception at the Sherman
place east of town, where special
precautions have been taken to pro-
tect them from predatory animals,
reptiles and birds.
The pheasant, easily the most
beautiful and most edible Of game
birds, is handicapped in propagation
by the fact that he appeals to the
taste of too many other fauna be-

to make him q good naturahzed citi-

that the bird may become common to
this part Of the country in a few
years.

Jailed Under
KQiser'S Rule

Amsterdam, July 11.-Since Ger
mans entere Finland, 100000
workmen there have been arrested
and many executed, declared Hugo
Haase. leader of the minority So
cialists, in a recent speech in the
reichstag according to a verbatim
report published by the Hetvolk.
The deputy also criticized German
rule in Livonia and Esthonia.
After pointing out that those who
provoked civil war in Finland were
responsible for the calling in of
Germans, Deputy Hoose said:
THE list of those sentenced to
death in Finland contains the names
OF a former premier and 80 Social
ist members of parliament, some
of whom already have been shot.
Owing to the numerous daily execu-
tions the town of Sveaborg has
been renamed Golgotha."
The speaker then referred to the
suppression of Vernacular news
papers in the provinces of Livonia
and Esthonia and added:
Fifty persons were arrested at
Dorpat and German military die
tatorship rules everywhere. A boy
aged 10 was sentenced to long i'm
prisonment for concealing arms,
while a boy, 15, was sentenced to
death for picking up a manifesto.
For a similar offense a woman
named Julia Daft was executed
Deputy Haase then read a letter
from a Bolshevik, now under ar
rest, which said:
Julia Daft is dead but her last
words will live forever, as will the
last maledictions which she flung
at the German hangmen and op-
pressors."
