THE STENCIL SHOP


(Written by John Curtis Underwood,
at Santa Fee on the last day of 1879
God Almighty gave us all different
works and ways,
Different skins and different thorghts
to render to His praise;
For our profit gave us fools to .et the
people learn
Wisdom snatched from wustefulness.
And each may teach in turn
A little of His splendor, and depth, and
breadth and height,
Who wraps His winds around the
world, and camps across the Night.
We have raped and stripped a CONT
nent, and turned our forst trees
To papers printing sordid lies and
beauty's hlasphemies,
To paper Brittle, cheap and hard, and
though as thin and bare,
For school books for a big machine
that shutters everywhere
Learning baled like breakfast food for
Shoddy souls and brains.
And we smashed the Prussian's stem
ellis. But his infamy remains.
We let them teach our children to
We rubber stamp and standardize our
laws and lives and arts.
We think the way our women dress,
and progress still demand
From fiimsy paper patterns stenciled
out at second hand,
Breeding little half-baked egos that
would standardiZe mems souls,
Like the fruits of all creation from the
trDnipS To the pnlaS
Still, when some jack in office, near
the White house or out west,
Says: Down with Indian dances"
there rises to protest
Something more than love for art or
color or fair play,
Or tie old primeval music our motors
drown today,
Or the old prlmeval mngic of an age
remote from ours
AS New York from ancient Athens, or
a dlctaphone from flowers.
once. when the west was building, and
the red men made the mob,
And likewise the majority and robbers
bossed the job,
"EXtcrminate the savage was what
both sides protested
For n savage knows as fear is sure,
that all his ways are best
More modern now, an easy graft, our
nations wards remain.
And we send them small white saw
ages TO make creation plain.
We send them Indian agents, and the
spoilsmen of orr votes.
We send them senseless teachers, lit

Brilliant Inaugural Affair

week chilled some of the enthusiasm
of the Inauguration festivities and cut
into the elaborate program that had
been prepared. 1t kept from Santa
Fe many who planned to come from 81
distance and brought more or less dis
comfort to some of those who dio
come, for while Santa Fe is accustom-
ed to long and cold winters it is not
prepared for north pole weather. The
military and civic procession which
had been planned was abandoned The
wigwam at the Masonic Cathedral
| which had been set aside for rest and
card room was chilly and while the
! ball room had been warmed up after
long and persistent effort, yet, it too,
became decidedly cool as the night
wore on and the quicksilver in the
| thermometer hanging outside dropped
to ten degrees below.
| Yet, the inauguration ceremonies
wer enotable, We're colorful, were bril-
! liant and success The hall Of rep
resentatives at the capitol could not
| hold one-half of the people who clam
| ored for admission at the noon hour.
! All the corridors on all floors and

crowds who tried to keep warm. With

Work Ahead For Duke City

Taking it all in all, 1919 ought 70
prove itself me of those wonderful
years we read about in history some
thing considerably out of the Ordn-
airy, as the first year in every rev
era of the world should he.
And the best thing about i: now
is that 1t is all ours lacking few
days. II is a book in which only the
introduction has been written, so far,
and we may make the cnapters about
what we will.
And If the will of ours is a good
will, the year will be a happy and
joyous one. Just as we went around
wishing our friends last Wednesday.
The past weeks calendar hes been
q full one for many Albuquerqueans,
but the New Year was ushered in with
only a slight amount of festivities. 1t
is possible that the passing of the old
was without any great feeling of re-
greet For certainly 1913 was full of
troubles.

CHILD WELFARE WORK
WILL BE PUSHED.

Beginning with this issue OF the
Journal a department of Child Well
fare will be weekly feature. This
department IN no way aims to invade
the field of medical or nursing pro-
LESSONS, but rather to furnish helpful
suggestions, regarding hygiene and
normal living as every mother, actual
or potential, has right to possess In
the interest of herself and her chill
dren Such suggestions and informa-
ton as the Journal has at hand or
can obtain will be as nearly authentic
and practical as possible. If the
women readers of this paper are IN
terested in saving the seventh child
and will indicate their interest by
word of suggestion of approval or or
criticism it will assist greatly in max
ing this department worth while. And
as soon as it proves to be uninterest-
ing or fails in being helpful 1t Will be
discontinued.
By way of introduction Mrs. j. 5.
yesterday, who has done much in the
interest of child-welfare in Albuquer-
que and. the state, has a short article
which will be followed by a series
dealing with those problems which
are most common in the everyday life
of women and children.
As Mrs. yesterday Sees 1t.
I'VE may live without poetry, husic,
and art;
We may live without conscience. ana
live without heart;
We may live without friends; we may
live without books,
But civilized man cannot live without
cooks"
How literally this has been accept
ed by all women. How insistantly
mothers have urged their daughters 10
learn to cook! AS we have advanced
in civilization. we have established
departments of domestic science IN
our schools. Hoover kitchens and
county demonstrators have worked
faithfully that man might be fed.
Commendable and practical as all this
has been in the building of the man
power of our nation, have we not
omitted almost entirely the first
! step in the process OF man building.
, The care of our babies. Who feeds
! the baby?
! The average American girl is taught
art, music, and domestic science along
with her other educational work. she
enters her husbands home splendidly
| equipped in all of the arts of home
j making, but pitifully and shametully
| ignorant of the duties and privileges
| of motherhood. This part Oh her euu-
| cation has been left to chance. Infant
care would just come by instinct II
, she should become a mother.
! Considering the three hundred
! thousand babies who die annually IN
the United States would it not have
been safer for humanity if she had
been given this important training
along with her other educations?
! Even though she never marries or
| bears a child, there is in every woman

| nndeniable duty and privilege OF

A question has come to the society
editor from prominent Albuquerque
woman, which she cannot answer. The
need for an answer is great. This is
the question:; Where is a convenient
and practical place for a woman to
carry her automobile license? Women
do not want to be arrested for not
carrying their license and a woman's
wardrobe is not constructed along the
same lines as mans, hence the dif-
ficulty, and the S. O. S. for expert adj

pELJGHTFUL NEW
YEAR PARTY.

a delightful birthday party was the
one given by Mrs. A. F. Morrisette
last Tuesday afternoon, when she in
vlted the ladies of st. Johns Guild in
10 help her celebrate. The fact that
she wanted them also for another pur-
pose had nothing to do with the en-
joyment of the occasion. Neither did
the business meeting which took up
part of the afternoon detract from
the general good time. The ladies
demonstrated their good will and love
for Mrs. Morrissette, who has long
been prominent worker in her
church, by first blindfolding her, .and
then showering her with beautiful
linen To say that the hostess was
pleasantly surprised is all too mild a
statement, but it may be concluded
that she was no more pleased at re-
ceiving the gifts of fine linen than her
guests were in giving them. Delicious
refreshments were served, beauti-
fully decorated birthday cake being an
important part of the eats"
Next Saturday the ladies of the ST.
Johns guild will hold a home-cook-
ing sale at Mrs. Fergusons hat shop.
Coffee cakes and sandwiches will be
served in the afternoon, and the sale
will be conducted all day.
