Mr.. John Held, merchant, of Salt
Lake City. keeps an exact record of the
shoes he wears. He writes. Two
pairs Of Ne0lin Soles have worn for
me: 10 months and | am on my feet
ninety per cent Of the time"
y This is not an extraordinary exam
pie Of the rnoney-saving service that
people get from Neolin Soles. It is
typical of the experience millions are
having. These soles do wear very
long time and so help you keep shoe
bills down. They are scientifically
made so they must wear. ~
Get Ne6linlsoled shoes at almost
any good shoe store. Get them for
your whole family in the styles you
prefer. And have these cost-saving
soies put on your worn shoes. They
are. very comfortable and waterproof

pany, Akron, Ohio, who also make
Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed to out
wear any other heels. RI

Current taxes must be paid
promptly and payment of delin-
quent taxes cannot be longer de-
ferred if House Bills Nos. $50 &
381 enacted into law by the last
legislature are properly enforced
The taxpayers Association of N.
M. publishes the substance of
these laws in the April number
of the ''Tax Review"
Under H. B. No. 381, District
Attorneys or counsel employed by
the State Tax Commission are re-
quired to commence and prose-
cute suits for the collection of
delinquent taxes. In all such
suits, ten per cent of the total
amount Of the delinquent taxes,
penalty, interests and other costs
shall be charged and collected as
costs to be paid by the defend
ant or recovered by sale of the
property. From this ten per cent
shall be paid, the compensation
of special cousel and other ex-
penses incurred by the State Tax
Commission.
Under these two laws it
should be possible toreduce con-
siderably the amount Of outstand
ing taxes which now exceeds So,
$50, 900. AS all delinquent taxes
which accrued prior to January
1915 will be put into the state or
county road funds and roads and
schools will receive their respec
tive shares of taxes that have ac
crued since that date, the laws
relating to the collection of taxes
should be strictly enforced. If
back taxes are paid in, the public
business could be placed upon a
cash basis within the next twelve
months.

Hail Insurane

Extract from letter written tc
Prof. K. S. Trumbull regarding
mutual hail insurance by Y, N.
Valgren, investigator in Agricul
tural Insurance.
There are two special diff
culties as | see it, to be consider
ed in connection with a plan such
as you suggest. To one of these
difficulties you made specific re-
ference, namely, the lack Of ad-
equate Iegah9provisions in thu
State of New Mexico fora mutual
hail insurance company. The
provision to (Which you referred
is, / assume, the one contained
in Sec. 2l37 of the Compiled laws
of the state. This provision, SO
far as appears from the wording
however, relates only to 'Insur-
ance from loss by fire and death, "
If it were assumed neverthe
ess, that by some special inter-
probation a mutual hail insur-
ance company might be organ
lied under the section referred
to or some other provision of the
laws of the State, the fact still
remains that three counties is
rather too restricted an area for
the successful operation of a hail
insurance company, where as in
the case of Northern New Mex.
the hail is relatively severe. Ex-
perience has demonstrated that
while a fire ins. CO. can be con-
Quoted successfully by the farm
ers in a single county or where
farms are small in even a more
limited area, hail as well as wind
storm ms. requires a much wider
territorial distribution Of risks,
There is much of interest in
this letter that we cannot repro
dace now but will be presented
in full when Mr.. Trumbull ar
rives about May 18th.
The opinion is ventured that
it is difficult to see how any prac
tical Mutual Insurance for Farm
ers can be organized under exist
ing laws in N, M. but The Dept
gives assurance of assistance in
trying to overcome the difficulties

Second Examination
Ernest Wade
Wagon Mound
Bernice Herrera.
The second examination was
held April oath and 25th and the
last one of the season will occur
on May 18th and 10th. The pa
pers from the April examination
are arriving and are being graded
by the examiners.
The system of conducting the
eighth gradeexaminations under
the direction of the Dept. of
Education was introduced in 1917
Prior to this only the results of
the examinations held in the
schools were reported. Under
the present system the board of
examiners of the Dept. of Edu-
cation prepares the questions
which are the same for all schools
in the state. The papers are
sent to the dept. by the county
supts. and are graded by the ex
aminers. Pupils receiving an
average of rs per cent with no
grade below 60 per cent in any
one study are awarded diplomas.
This system has brought ord
er and uniformity out of the for
mer chaotic condition. 1t gives
the diplomas a definite standing
under the authority of the State
Dept. of Education and they are
therefore recognized not alone in
New Mexico but in other states.
The graduates may enter with
out entrance examinations the
high schools or the preparatory
depts! Of the higher educational
Institutions of the state.
This system has also brought
the dept. muchsclOser to the
teachers pupils, and officers Of
the common schools of the state.
This gives the dept. better op-
portunity to supervise the work
of the elementary schools and at
the same time stimulate interest
in the school room.
This dept, says ]. H. Wagner
Supt. Of Public Instruction, has
a personal interestin every child
in New Mexico and its welfare.
The elementary schools lay the
foundation for the eddcation of
the future citizens Of the state.
It is, therefore highly important
that such schools are conducted
efficiently and conscientiously to
lay a sound foundation for a
thorough and practical education
of every child.
"The eight grade diploma, con-
tinued Mr.. Wagner, is not evil
dence that the education Of the
