NAME BUT 1T
SOUNDED MUCH THE SAME

In the March issue Of the Worlds
Work, large magazine with wide
circulation, the names of 1000 worth
less investments appeared. In the
list appeared the name RED Peak
Mining CO., but no address was given.
The name sounded very much the
same as Red Peaks Copper Co., which
is located in this county. Some who
read over this list thought it meant
the home company, but such is not
the case.
The company referred to is capital
lied for S5,000,0 900 and has advertised
extensively in the Denver papers for
exchange of stock for Liberty Bonds.
The home company is capitalized for
only s1,5OO,O0O and has never adver-
tised to accept Liberty Bonds for cer-
tifcates of stock. The stockholders
are satisfied with their holding and
from recent reports they will be we'll
paid for their expense. Those who
have charge Of affairs promise some
good news within short time.

RAILROAD FARE TO BE CUT
TO THREE CENTS IN STATE

San Francisco, March l8.-Flat
increase to 3 cents mile Of all pas
senger rates on and after April | was
announced by the officers of the
United States railroad administration
here today. The increase was pro-
vided for in general order No. 2S, is
sued June 10, last.
Rates in excess of 3 cents a mile
will be decreased to the 3-cent limit
on all lines under the jurisdiction of
the administration, it was announced.
All special and excursion rates will
be discontinued.
1t is assumed that the above ruling
will apply to New Mexico, and that
all passenger rates will be reduced to
cents a mile, effective April /. The
fare in this state has been 4 cents OF
better. The state corporation com
mission has been fighting for several
years for lower passenger rates in
New Mexico.

NEW DRY LAW IS INTENDED
TO AID IN ENFORCEMENT

r. +. Farley while in Albuquerque,
en- route from Santa Fe, where he at
tended the session Of the legislature, to
Mexico City, where he will spend some
weeks in perfecting an organization of
Anti-saloon league of the Republic of
Mexico.
The prohibition law, known as H..
b. No. 260, which was enacted by the
legislature, is eminently satisfactory
to the officials of the Anti-saloon
league, according to Mr.. Farley. Un-
der the new law, bootlegging will be-
come n thing Of the past. The con-
stitutional amendment remains in full
force and effect. as it has been since
October /, with the exception that
"teeth" have been put into the penal
ties, and instead of fines, violaters of
the liquor laws now face imprison-
ment in the county Jail for not less
than ninety days for first offense, and
imprisonment in the penitentiary for
not less than two years for second and
, subsequent offenses.
The new law provides that the court
shall have no power to suspend any
sentences passed for violations of the
prohibitory law. II is also unlawful
for anyone to have liquor in his pos
session in public places, so that it is
now an offense for person to have
liquor in his possession anywhere ex.
cept in private homes. And, in view
of the court upholding the validity OF
the Reed amendment, it will be i'm
possible to have booze shipped in.
All clubs, society and fraternal or
ganizations, hotels and restaurants
Sre forbidden to keep, maintain OF
serve any intoxicating liquors in oil
about their premises. The law alsc
provides for seizure of liquor owned
by any person found guilty of the
violation of the law.

AuTOIsT AND THE SIGNAL

Proper signals are not acts Of cour-
tesy-they are absolutely vital to safe
ty.
The driver behind you is not a
mind-reader; and every driver should
guard his own safety and that Of
other drivers by the following sig
nails:
The outstretched hand
/. When pulling away from curb.
2. When turning at intersections.
3. When turning in street.
4. When changing course.
The arm above head
l. When stopping.
The sounding of the horn
/. When passing overtaken vehi-
cles.
2. When approaching intersections.
Don't signal in half-hearted way.
Every day traffic congestion is in
creasing.
Every day the danger is increasing
Strict obedience to the laws of the
state is incumbent on every citizen.

RED CROSS WANTS
YOUR OLD CLOTHES
1900 LBS.0UR QUOTA

Recent cable advice from our Amer
lean Red Cross Commission to Eu-
rope, indicates that it is advisable mat
We undertake "A campaign for the col
lection of used clothing for the benefit
of all European countries, except the
Central Powers.
The need Of these people is still
great, and il is extremely important
that We should suppliment their splen-
did efforts in every way possible.
The war is, of course, overland
Easter is fast approaching-when
many will put on new clothing. Will
you not turn your discarded garments
to those less fortunate ones in Europe?
Every kind of garments for all ages
of both sexes is urgently needed, and
in addition to these, piece goods, can
ton flannel and other kinds of cloth
from which to make garments for new
born babies, and woolen goods of any
kind. Ticking and sheetng also shoes
Of every size are needed. Scrap leath-
er is asked for to be used in making
repairs on foot wear.
Since the clothing will be subject
ed to the hardest kind Of wear only
garments of strong, durable material
should be sent. 1t is useless to offer to
any afflicted population garments Of
flimsy material. Make the gift prac-
tical.
Garments need not be in perfect con-
dition. Many thousand of destitute
women living in the regions recently
occupied by the Central Powers are
most eager TO earn small livll-
hood by repairing gift clothing and
making new garments suitable to the
needs with which they are familiar.
Do not send, ball dresses, flimsy
dresses, high hats, straw hats, derby
hats, trimmings for hats, feathers, UNI
brellas, mattresses, toys, collars, neck
ties, crutches, parasols, pillows, crock
cry, rugs, carpets. No food stuff Of
any kind.
Send all clothing to the Red Cross
Rest Room. The campaign will begin
March "a, and closes March 81. Quay
County's quota is 1900 pounds.
Mrs. Herman Gerhardt is chairman
of this work and will gladly furnish
you with any further information.

THE ORIGIN OF THE DOUGHBOY

How many Companion readers know
why American soldiers are called
"doughboys?" Stars and Stripes
gives this explanation.
The term "doughboy" dates from
the Civil War, when army wit was
aroused by big globular brass but
tons on infantry uniforms. Some one
he must have been sailor-dub-
bed the buttons "doughboys" because
they reminded him of the boiled
dumplings Of raised dough that are
so frequently served in ships messes
and are known to all sailors as
"doughboys."
Originally, the name referred only
to infantrymen, but the American
expedetionary force applies 1t to all
branches and all grades of the SER

Internal Revenue Collector Frank
lin made the following statement to-
day, which should be good news to tax
payers who have not filed their income
tax returns: "Owing to the very short
time allowed taxpayers to file their re-
turns, and further to the fact that not
all of the proper forms were received
until few days ago there are large
number Of persons who did rot file re-
turns. In some instances, of course,
the taxpayers are at fault, but others
are to be excused because Of the un-
usal circumstances. The Treasury
Department has advised that returns
may be accepted if the taxpayer will
attach statement to the return, set
ting forth his reason for dalay. This
statement will accompany the tax re-
turn to Washington and will be passed
upon by the Commissioner. II the
reason is good and sufficient there will
be no penalty assessed. This gives al
an opportunity to get right with the
Government, and ! hope that those
who are delinquent will see that theil
returns are filed Immediately"
