COUNTRY OF ROLLING HILLS
me Orum'ins. Between Syracuse and
Rochester. N. v. Make Exquisite
Bit Of Scenery.

Between Syracuse and Rochester
lies country Of hills. known rs drum.
Inns. which Is one OF the mos, beautiful
ana unique bits Of scenery in the
eastern United States.
The term drutniin IS an Irish one
ana Is applied to low. rolling hills OF
glacial origin which exist in that coun-
try, and also in parts Of New York and
New England. This section between
syracuse and Rochester Is the very
heart OF the American dr,lmins.
Most American mountains aud hills
ere f9r1hed hE violent Disturbances
~ the0arth's sarfSce. and their rude
origin Is reflected In their ruggedness.
But the drumlins we're built by the
great Ice sheet which once covered all
OF North America. The materials OF
winch they are made were pushed to-
gether slowly by the crawling glaciers
nodded and tamped and smOothed by
the great Ice fingers as q child makes
mud pies.
The drumlins look as though they
had been designed by some great In
teiiigence with sense Of beauty. for
they rise In smooth. gentle curves. like
those OF perfect human body. They
are remarkably uniform In height,
usually little less than 200 feet. and
so smooth and lenicnt are their
slopes that many OF them are culi-
waited to their SUBMITS. Some of them
are as round as half an apple, and 9th
ers nre long wclts or rolls.
Scattered among the hills are num-
Der Of small lakes and ponds. clear
and pretty, and there is good fishing in
many Of them. Tie drumlins are a
faVorite playground OF the people in
Syracuse. Rochester and other nearby
towns. but they are little known be-
You'd the counties In which they lie.

TWO DISTINGUISHED
WOMEN IN CITY DURING WEEK.

Two important women graced Alhu-
Querque with their presence during the
week: Miss Mary Eidder of Denver,
and DR.. Bertha Van Housen of Chica-
so. Miss Kidder is here representing
the home service department. of the
Mountain Division American Red
Cross and is conducting a home serv-
ice institute in the city. This depart
ment has helped over 1,G000O0 peO-
pie since the war began. and has spent
a total of 100000 in the work.
DR.. Van Housen is a surgeon Of ma
tional reputation and a scientist who
has probably done more effective work
for the alienation of cancer han any
other person in the last fifty years.
DR. Van Housen is giving To the nc di-
cal profession her method Of treat
ment for whatever of value there is
in it. Before the local PHYSICIANS and
nurses last Thursday NIGHT mt st,
Jcseph's hospital she presented a re-
port of 100 cases treated. most Of thom
coming to her after they had reached
the in-operahle stage, the only hope
of any relief from pain being NOR
phina or death. In every case tratcd
decided benefit was observed, and
many of them apparently, if not per
manentN. cured. Such women as
these two, who are proud to belong to
the aristocracy of service, are setting
pace for all mankind.

and education of its future citizens,
the babies and children. The quality
of the workers of tomorrow depends
upon the care and preparation of the
children of today.
If we are to advance the national,
spiritual and material prosperity of
our nation, educated citizens will be
needed.
Tho board of education has en-
deavored by publicity to show the true
patriotism of keeping children in
school The percentage of illiteracy
in rural communities according to the
1910 census is double that in the
cities. Where the rural child labor is
great the percentage of child litter
acy is high. Child labor laws are not
enforced and are Inadequate.
We pay twice as much for chewing
gum as for school books.
There are now 100000 men of draft
age who are unable to read or write
The average teachers salary is less
than the average day laborer.
New Mexico is not the most Hitter
ate state in the union but we are con-
stantly being written up by outside
editors and Journalists in most en-
barraSsing manner.
Legislators, educators and child well
fare workers could do no greater re-
construction work in our state than
to equip its children for health and
education.

not been happy it was not because the

With Their Community Theater

Two community events made the
week q notable one from social and
dramatic standpoint. The first was
the rendition of the operetta, THE
Jananese Girl" on tuesday, evening
by the liberty chorus at the Elks
theater, for the benefit of the wom-
ans board of trade. The operetta was
given uunder the direction of Mrs.
Ralph NJ. Henderson for whom it was
a personal triumph. Every seat in the
theater was taken and the audience
was quite pronounced and emphatic
in its applause and in demanding en-
cores. The curtain rose upon as beau
tiful stage setting at Santa H'e has
seen in many a moon. 1t was Jap
anese garden brilliant with flowers
and with girls in colorful costumes.
The plot of the operetta involves the
preparations for the birthday cere
monies of a japanese princess. a part
taken with much success by Miss
Claribel Fischer There arrive upon
the scene, an American governess,
Mrs Rupert Il. Asplund, and her two
charges twins, Miss Anna Kaune and
Miss Evelyn Mcbride who furnished
the humor of the occasion and inter-
polated incidentally a number of To-
cal hits. Finally arrive the empress,
Mrs. Nora r. summers, and a garden
party is on with artistic groupings
and flashes of superb beauty that
charmed. The heavy part, o Hanu
San beautiful Fiower) taken by Miss
Claribel Fischer, gave opportunity for
a number of solos well adapted to
Miss Fischer's fine voice. Miss Jessie

BACK-TO-SCHOOI
BY MES. j. S. I,NSTERDAN.

The child conservation section of
the council of national defense in
Washington, d. c., in a communica-
ton dated February 6, 1919, is again
urging the child welfare service of
New Mexico to push with all vigor the
Back to School" drive in all sections
of our state.
All states were requested to Conduct
such a drive from April 6, 1918, to
April 6, 1919. At the present time this
drive is being pushed in thirty-siX
states in New York city and in the
District of Columbia.
All over the country enforcement
of child labor laws has been relaxed,
increasing the problems of school at
tendance and juvenile delinquency,
Economic necessity has always caused
child labor. Wastefulness and pow
eTty have gone hand in hand with
ignorance in many cases. In the past
two years. wartime needs have added
to this seemingly necessity for child
labor.
There is a remedy for practically
every case of non-attendanCe at school
and child labor. Even one case in a
community is sufficient reason for in
vestigation and assistance or enCour-
agement fer such child to return to
school. Prolonged absense from
school is not only a handicap to the
pupil but costly to the state because
of the expense of re-teachiIfg children
who fail Ito pass on account of such
absence.
To send a child, under IS, to work
instead of to school is not only bad
policy, but bad business. From a ply
steal standpoint it saps his vitality and
deteriorates the quality of the man.
hood and womanhood of the nation.
BY lack of sufficient preparation it
reduces his efficiency and the num-
Der Of skilled workers. The strength
of q nation depends upon the health
