DIsREGARDING STYLE.


The latest style" in London is to
disregard styles That is to say the
up-to-date woman has a dress made
as she desires it. regardless of what
is supposed to be the prevailing
fashion" She seeks personality" as
she calls it, and pays no attention to
the fashion plates. 1t needs not con-
form to anybody else's dress as re-
CARDS length. "fullness," fabric or
hanging effects" if those are proper
dressmaking terms, with which we
confess no familiarity.
What a wonderful lot of trouble it
would save the women if it should
come to prevail that one woman paid
no attention to another woman's APP
parel If woman imagines she looks
better in a long skirt or if she pre-
fers "fullness' or "skimpiness," or
anything else, let her have it--and
there shall be non to point the finger
of scorn at her and to remind her that
she is out of style. All she need to
do to be happy would be to convince
herself that the garment displayed
personality"
And the men might be left the same
scope in their apparel--and, glory be.
We have several pretty good derby
hats of the past, one a little fellow
with low crown and crimped brim,
the vintage of 1898 or Whereabouts.
1t is in good state of preservation. 1t
certainly possesses a good deal of per-
sonality, and we believe we would
make a hit under the London rules by
wearing it to office some fine morn
ing this fall. But we shall have to
wait, and find out more definitely
whether styles are going out of style
before putting it on. We have kept
it all of these years in the belief that
styles would eventually get back to
the low crowned derby.

sand among non graduates of the
country's military academy. Indubit-
ably this points to the Importance of
developing that psychology which dis
tinguishes the trained military man.
We need not be a militarist nation,
but it is essential that We be prepared
with trained officers for any emer-
gency which may arise.
The disproportion of deaths among
the several classes noted IS not to be
cited in derogation of any one of them,
But the genuine fighting leadership
Of professionals among American Of
ficers that is disclosed must be- fos-
tered if we are to set before another
hastily recruited army the example Of
intrepidity under fire which is neces-
sary to the winning of battles.

GOOD ROADS AS AN ASSET.

New Mexico can no more afford to
have bad roads than Albuquerque can
afford to have bad streets. The cost
of having good streets comes high to
this city, but we are going to pay the
price. The cost of having good roads
in the state comes high, but the fed
eral government will pay half the cost.
But in both instances. the money eX-
pended will remain largely where it is
spent 1t goes to labor, and from the
laborer into the channels of trade.
The department of agriculture has
given some figures which show what
good roads mean to the prosperity of
the country. From many tests of the
weights two horse team can draw
in a farm wagon over various roads
the following figures have been de,
duced
On smooth, dry earth road. two
to four thousand pounds; on a good
gravel road, SIX to eight thousand
pounds; on a good macadam road.
eight to ten thousand pounds.
The departments figures also show
that the cost of hauling d ton mile
on German roads is ten cents; on
English roads about the same. while
in France, the home of good roads,
the cost is only four cents.
The American cost is twenty three
cents!
These figures are given after
equalizing the cost of labor and is
based merely upon an average of time
required, cost of labor and mainten-
ance.
The annual cost of hauling from
farm to market in this country is
greater than the cost of transporting
the products from New York City to
Liverpool. When the cost of hauling
products from the farm to the rail
loads has been cut TO the English basis
of ten cents instead of twenty-three
cents that item alone will add tens
of millions of dollars to the profits of
farmers every year,
Roads that are good for freight
traffic are also good for developing
a country, The department has found
that in the sections where the roads
are bad population has positively de-
creased, and at an alarming rate;
while in the sections where the roads
are good population has increased in
even larger proportion.
But New Mexico has a problem
peculiar to this state. We have no
large agricultural areas for develop
ment, but we may become the Mecca
for tourists. just as Switzerland has
been for many years. if We will merely
make our roads attractive.
We have a better climate than Swift
zerland or France or than any other
country in the world. for that matter,
and we have more OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES,
ethnic, archaelogic. and romantic
than any other section of North Amer
lea. Only Egypt and Palestine rival
us in all the world.
Whatever else we may do, let us not
fail to take advantage of the oppor
tunity to get good roads in New Mex
leo To do so would be to invite the
tourist to spend his time in Colorado,
Arizona and California.

way, When you have quoted the
great Hebrew prophets, and the
mighty st. Paul, or stirred us with
some of the worlds most sublime

In these days of efficiency, II. c.

AN ABSENT-MINDED PROFESSOR
T,OOdon POST

A certain Scottish professor is famed
for his observation-disclosures. On one
occasion his children were having a
party, to which a little friend had been
invited. The professors wife. finding
that she had to go out to a. meeting,
went to his study and told him to see
that the children were put to bed at
certain hour. On her return she ask
ed him if they had behaved quietly.
We'll" said the professor, -four of
them were quite good, but the fifth
was very obstreperous; he positively
refused to be bathed, and we couldn't
find his nightgown."
But, my dear" cried the astonished
mother, I'VE have only four children!'
He had put the visitor to bed with
the rest!
On another occasion, when travelling
to country village to preach, he tele-
graphed to his wife from Perth:
Where am | going?' Look at your
ticket"

PLAIN COOKING AND COMMON
SENSE.

Foreign dishes are to disappear
from the menus of American hotel
restaurants. 1t has been decreed by
the International Stewards associa-
ton that we shall go back to a vogue
of American dinners, which should
mean in effect, a return to a rule Of
common sense. In this there is strong
hope for salvation for Uncle Sans
stomach, for it has been sorely tried
in recent years by frantic effort to
digest the indigestiblos Of all the
world.
The popularity of so-called foreign
foods, many of them of little nutri-
tive value and some positively HARM
full, has been one of the confusions of
the American appetite. But, gener-
ally speaking, it may be said that we
did not eat these impossibes because
we liked them, but because it was
supposed they were fashionable and
because the high hand of the chef had
decreed they should rule, An excess
of seasoning covers d multitude of UNI
mentionables.
But before going into ecstacy over
the proposed return to reason, the
patron Of public eating places will
await the american" menus that are
provided for him. Just as great afro
cities can be committed with our ma
tive dishes as with any other, but if
the stewards are seeking popularity
they will see that our fried chicken,
beefsteak, hickory cured ham, pinto
beans and apple pie are served un-
simon pure, without
age.
