August 1919, Anastacio Montoya
was employed to promote the inter-

From time to time in the past the
university has maintained prepare
tory department for students without
sufficient preparation to do college
work. A few students accepted prior
to this year under the old rule remain
but the institution hereafter will ac-
cept only qualified candidates from
high schools and academies. and
adults over 81 as special students
This policy eliminates foolish dupli-
cation of work done in high schools
and also is declaration that the in
stitution prefers to enroll relatively
small group of qualified students than
to report seemingly very large num-
bers of students, most of whom would
be in reality pupils of elementary and
high school grade than of college and
university type. The university now
has an enrolment of more than $50
students.

fare of the children and women of
the state. Twelve thousand dollars
are urgently needed for this excellent

in already and given impetus to the
movement. Mr.. G. A. Kaseman has
sent a check for $4,000, and Mr..
George w. Gensemer. a visitor here

worthy examples of a benevolence,

a good thing to make large gifts TO

monuments to the spirit of altruism.

of Schools.)
| The beginning of 1920 finds the
people of New Mexico quite active
and interested in their school affairs.
Never in the history of the state have
the rural communities appeared more
! concerned regarding their public
school facilities. Progressive building
programs have been reported by a
number of county superintendent.
which indicate that the improvement
of the rural schools is the absorbing
question and that special efforts are
being made to provide better school
facilities, thus affording better OPP
| portunities to children attending
school in the rural districts. The cen
tralizing of administrative powers is
believed to have done a great deal
toward placing the rural schools upon
as a stimulant for better conditions
and has gained the confidence and
support of the taxpayers. The pat
rons are thinking in terms of stand
| ardization and consolidating their
school interests wherever possible.
They are fast realizing that the
county board law, where properly adj
ministered, Is supremacy efficient
| system which is gradually working
out the salvation of the rural public
| schools
The office of county school super.
intendent is fast growing in impor-
lance. The demands are greater, the
duties are heavier and the people ex-
pect real results, The fact that an
efficient county board of education
has been appointed in each county.

ought to bring great results and help
to make 1920 a banner year in the
educational progress of New Mexico.
During the past three years more
than $50 school houses were built in
New Mexico, mostly inaugurated at
inspirational meetings called by AS
sistant Superintendent John V. Con-
way and attended by school patrons
and taxpayers. Experience has proven
that more vital results can be ac-
complished by having the assistant
travelling about the state as sort of
rural school inspector than by sitting

visitors. The drive for better school
houses and more ADEQUATE school ia

poses, but for community service.
Since the world war our schools
have been crippled for lack of teach
ers, due to the fact, largely, that
ed into other lines of activity wherc
they had an opportunity to render
patriotic service and to receive better
wages At the close of the war some
of them returned from the field of
battle and from the offices where
they had been serving their country,
to take up again the work of teach
l. ing the younger generation; however,
many of them were attracted by the
larger salaries to remain out of the
service as teachers, and we have
missed them keenly in New Mexico
Many schools, especially in the rural
districts of our state. are not open
today for the reason that the teach
ers are not available and some of
them are filled with teachers who
are certificated with a low grade of
certificate or are teaching on an
emergency certificate. Our great
need, therefore, is for better trained
teachers in New Mexico, and the out
| look in this respect is not discour-
aging: our higher educational insti-
| tutions were never SO crowded with
Ambitious young men and women,
preparing themselves for life's work,
as at the present time. and may we
not entertain the hope that many of
these young people will see an OPP
| portunity to render zeal, genuine
service by entering the teaching pro-
| fession?
| The movement on foot for larger
salaries is a most hopeful agency to
secure better teachers. and we have
every reason to believe that this
movement has the sympathy of the
taxpayers and the patrons of our
schools and the strong support of
| the governor of our state, the Hon
orable O, A, Larrazolo. Governor
Larrazolo is sufficiently interested in
| this movement and deems it of suf-
| ficient Importance - an emergency
| to give it one of the reasons for
calling together the legislative as
cembies of New Mexico in an eX-
ltraordnary session. With our laws
so modified and provision for taxa
ition made so that county boards of
education may pay better salaries at
f, the beginning of the school year
1920, we believe that many of the
| old teachers will return to their
places In the school room, and that
larger number of ambitious young
men and women will be attracted to
the work of the teacher.
| 1t seems to me, therefore. that we
| have every reason to take a cheer
| full view of the future

TAKES STEPS TO
BECOME FREEHOLDER

E. +. Waterstreet arrived in
Broadus the forepart of the
week from Kewane, Wis, and
proceeded twelve miles up
Powder river where he has ac-
cepted a position as teacher for
the Carr school. He will also
use his homestead right in fl

is an ambitious young man and
has correctly solved the prob

day and age-that of going to
q new country, becoming a
freeholder and prospecting. A

Waterstreet and the MANY
more newcomers who are en-
terlng the county in a steady

INCOME TAX RETURNS
BY MARCH FIFTEENTH

Income tax returns must be
made by March IL to escape
the penalty. At least one-ol,ar-
ter Of the tax must accompany
the return.
An unmarried person imam
or Woman) whose income was
81 1000 OF over and married
person with an income Of So
600 or over is liable to the tax,
Every firm Of professional mon
operating as corporation
must make an annual return Of
net income.
In Powder River county last
year six income tax returns
were filed with the collector of
internal revenue who this wear
is James \. Walsh Of Missoula.
No special field deputy has
been assigned to Powder River
county to assist in making out
these returns though they have
covered most every other sec
ton Of the state. The remote
hess from the railroad probab-
~ accounts for this oversight.
