NEED Of PUBLIC
HEALTH BUREAU
IS POINTED OUT

The collection pf vital statistics in
New Mexico is a farce. Soon after the
United States entered the war a man
giving his name as John Roscoe
Haines, and writing from the Brook
lyn navy yard, solicited the aid of the
New Mexico Public Health association
in securing him birth certificate. He
stated that he was born in AlbuQuer-
cue and gave the date, coupling it in
he couldn't enter the branch of the
service he was aiming at unless he
could secure the desired copy of the
official record
The Bernalillo county court house
records were searched in vain. No
record of the young mans birth had
been made. Far from being eligible for
admission to the particular depart.
ment of the navy in which he desired
to serve, he couldn't even prove his
American citizenship should it ever
challenged. There are thousands of
other New MeXicans in the same fix.
Recently during survey of health
NOllultlOIS ana OIBdiliLdIlOHS III new
Mexico, carried out by Surgeon John
w. Kerr of the United States public
health service, the methods of regis
tering vital statistics were given spe-
cial attention. 1t was found that not
single county or town visited was
making adequate records of births and
deaths, while no morbidity records
whatsoever were being kept
In war times the number and dis
position of the enemy's forces, their
armies and supplies, and their plans
of attack are ascertained by means of
scouts and spies. In public health
work this knowledge is gained by the
collection of mortality and morbidityi
reports and statistics. Research as to
the occurrence, prevalence and dis
semination of disease, give the infor-
nation as necessary in the fight
against disease among the civilian
population as the information cleaned
by the intelligence department of the
army. In order to exclude communica-
Bile disease from the state and to COM
bat those within it, registration isl
needed
New Mexico is careful as to the re-
cording of titles to land and other doc |
uments. Pedigreed cattle have their
births and deaths faithfully recorded. |
Are human beings less important?

All the Principal Stores of the City Will Keep Open Even

UNTIL DECEMBER IS

ance of from one TO three days extra
should be made.
In Christmas shopping one often
loses track of the main idea--to buy
gifts which are wanted by the future
recipients, One sees a lovely purse
or a beautiful piece of cut glass and
is so charmed with it that the object
us bought and paid for before the
shopper realizes that the person for
whom it was intended already pos
sesses at least five or six beautiful
purses and perhaps has absolutely no
place to put cut glass Gifts should be
chosen with an eye to the recipients

The scarf, for instance, is much APP
precated as a Christmas. gift by most
women, and is as much worn as ever
and in greater variety of ways. Silk
gau2e is one of the favorite materials
in which scarfs are seen, often woven
with a satin border One, for exam
pie, is in a soft citron tint. the border

Some of these silk gauzes are fringed
at the ends.
About double the price of these are
the scarfs made of Chinese silk. en-
broidered in pale but telling tints on
white, black or deep toned grounds.
Here the fringe is rich and heavy, UNI
like the filmy fringe of the silk
gauzes, so fluffy and easily entangled.
There are prices for all purses.
Among the cheapest are the color

material counterbalanced by border

Shop early. Early in the day. The

The following Christmas command

Christmas commandments: DON'T
do IN a parcel in such poor wrapping
paper or in such flimsy manner that
the wrapper may be easily torn and
separated from the contents.
Don't fail to put your name and adj
dress, preceded by the word from"

piece of mail.
Don't fail to give full addresses

Don't mail percel without pre-
viously weighing it to ascertain the
amount of postage required; printed
matter, one cent per two ounces; mer-
chandise, one cent per ounce.
Don't place handkerchiefs, neckties
or other articles of merchandise in
packages of printed matter, unless
you prefer to pay higher rates of post
age on the whole.
Don't seal or wrap parcels in such a
manner that their contents may not
be easily examined, unless you desire
to pay letter rates of postage.
Do not use one and two-cent stamps
and hostage on heavy packages. Use
the large denominations. 1t saves
you trouble affiXing them and saves
time and work In the postoffice.
Don't lay packages on the street
letter boxes, for they may never reach
the postoffices. Package boxes are
provided at convenient places, with
convenient collections.
Don't fail to register valuable let
tiers and packages. The government
insures their safe delivery, and the
extra cost is eight cents.
