which was prompted by his represent

of our intention to withdraw to the
Siegfried line. ,Count Limburg- Stirum

events.
The inquiry rather surprised me,

that, according to accounts received

The need for peace there was growing
more urgent.
As regards his own efforts, Won
Hintze said that he confidently hopes
for mediation through the queen of
Holland; I could not ascertain from
his statements on what ground he
based his hope.
He had no expectation that the
vague move to be taken by Count
Burian would lead to any result and
feared that they would make the me-
dia'ion of the queen of Holland more
difficult: he considered a definite

UNIVERSITY APPRECIATION.

The University Of New Mexico will
have its formal annual opening as
sembly Friday morning. The new ad-
ministration has voiced most earn
est desire for the faculty and all OF
The people to be in closer touch than
in the past.
1t should be evident to the people
Of the city where the institution is
placed that success of the university
is Of material local Importance. BY
creating an educational atmosphere
pairing the way for establishment of
other schools here. such as the $780,
600 college the Baptists are to place
in this state.
But aside from the business stand
point, Albuquerque residents should
show appreciation of the hundreds of
here for a commendable purpose,
which means much to the future ad-
Yancement Of the state.
1t was said in the past that the
students and faculty had not much ev-
idence that their work was considered
as of Importance, by residents. little
general interest being manifested;
and that the people were not in touch
with faculty or students.
With the present opening comes an
opportunity for a kindly welcome and
evidence of appreciation of the uni
versity workers and their purposes.
The new president is DESTROYS of
the presence of citizens of Albuquer-
que and of others for the assembly
hour of Friday morning, when an
interesting program will be given.
II is for the people to initiate CO.
operation which is SO earnestly wished
for by the educators. and which will
speed the interests of the institution.

is in the hands of the people alone
1t is the simple, comprehensive OLD
formula Work and Save"
The essential difficulty in the pres.
ent situation is a shortage in necessi.
ties of life. The world is not produc.
ing enough food, clothing. textiles
and building materials Europe
struggling with war losses, Bolshe-
v'sm and encouragement, is calling
for still more of American supplies
and depicting any temporary reserve
built up in this country.
When people deny themselves some
luxury. they save money that can be
used to employ workers to produce
necessaries Of life. But when one
throws away clothes not half worn
out, merely because they are out of
style, one depletes the supply of cloth
ing, which Is not enough to 90 around.
When one saves money and puts
it into bank. the funds are used in
productive enterprise. A great deal
of money is loaned to farmers 1t
helps them buy tools and machinery
with which they can produce more
food, thus helping break high prices
Much of the money saved is loaned
to manufacturing enterprises, which
helps to buy labor and purchase ma

A great deal OF work must be done
to right the world and bring prices to

achieved in years by planning to do

of duty dwindled from 1912 per cent

During those six years under the

Iiean rate in 1919 would have given
the treasury about $5S5,OO0.OO0 in
stead of the s1S5, 100000 which was
actually received. We would have
credited SG0,OO0,0O0 to customs duties
last August instead of $21, 900. goo.
The fact that our import trade for

The great argument of the demo-

Almost everybody gets bills, but
there are only few of us who know
what to do with them after we get
them.
l have worked out a number of
solutions for the bill question, al
though l spent years in finally per-
fecting a process that would be sue
cessful. One Of the first ideas I had
was to gather them up loosely under
my arm and then walk down the
street, letting them drop IN sort of a
careless, wistful manner. However, this
never worked out, as large numbers
Of people would insist upon picking

me, crying out in loud, insistent tones
that / had lost something valuable
and begging me to please take them
and be more careful in the future.
l also thought once of paying the
bills l received and getting rid Of
them in that manner. but I discovered
that when ! spoke of this my friends
told me l was crazy. Even those
paid looked at me in a curious man
ner; so in order not to seem peculiar
! ceased this absurd practice and cast
about for other methods. Finally,
perfected a few methods. one of the
most successful working out as fol-
lows.
