Grip.

Grip usually starts just the same
as a cold with a watery discharge
from the nose. You are much more
likely to contract the grip when you
have cold. For that reason when
grip is prevalent you should go to
bed as soon as you feel that you are
taking cold and stay in bed until
fully recovered which should not be
long if you take Chamberlain s

North Dakota women than the rat

says.

JOINT HISTORY AND
HISTORICAL SESSION

The Joint session of the iIistori
cal society OF New Mexico and the
history section Of the New Mexico
Educational association brought
out many problems connected with
the teaching Of western history in
the high schools.
Clark +. Persinger of the State
Normal college at Silver City
pointed out three methods OF
teaching western history. One was
by giving the history III a separate
course, another by combining it
with American history and the
third was by teaching it in connec
ton with European history.
But the most interesting phase
of the discussion related to the diff
ficulties encountered in adequately
teaching history of the western
country, particularly the history of
New Mexico. One of the greatest
lacks, according to Professor Per
singer, is suitable maps for illus
trating the history of the west. An
other is the lack Of text books suit

able for the pupils mind. Such
photography as exists, said the
speaker, is well adapted to the
mind of the teacher, but is likely
to go over the head of the pupil.
Prof Charles f. Coan of the
University of New Mexico further
emphasized the difficulties Of
teaching western history Of the
American period. He divided west7
ern history into four periods; from
1903 to 1870, when adventurous
fur traders penetrated the wilds of
the Indian country and when Texas
was settled by Americans: from
1870 to 1869 when immigrant
trains crossed the country and the
Pacific railroads were started;
from 1869 to 1890 when the home
steads had been largely settled up,
and from 1890 to 1920
Two topics Of interest which
came up were as to how history
should be taught. It was explained
the theory that history should be
taught without bothering about
dates. DR. Vaughn Of the New
Mexico tOilege OF Agflcultufe ana
Mechanic Arts, insisted that his
tory taught exclusively topicallv
was mere fiction to the student,
that dates must be observed and
maps must be used in order to give
reality to the study. Also there
was lively discussion over the ques-
ton as t. whether politics should
tie taught in the schools. There
was general agreement that poll
tics is a ticklish subject, and that
preference to it should De entirely
partisan. But it was also
agreed that politics has to do with
the whole history Of the origin apd
development Of the United States
and cannot be ignored.
1t was announced that former
Governor l.. Bradford Prince will
not be present at the meeting of
this section this morning, as he Isl
in the east and ill., Addresses at
the meeting this morning will be
delivered by Col. Ralph Il, Twitch
ell and Rev. Lansing Bloom each
Of them an authority on New Mex
leo history.

ture education as the English
speaking child receives"
Miss Bordenave is recognized as
one of the best teachers in Berna-
lilo county, she having taught sew
eral years in the country schools
before she took up work in the city
schools One of the remarkable
characteristics Of her work, accord
ing to those in authority in educa-
tional work in this county and city,
fs that Spanish speaking pupils
under Miss Bordenave's instruction,
learn the English text books as
quickly as the English-speaking
children learn them.
Miss Bordenave says the Span
ish-speaking children are not to
blame when results are unsatisfac-
tory, but that the blame must be
borne by the teachers and their
methods.
Reading, she says, is the most
important study with which the
child has 10 deal in the primary
grades; ''for having mastered the
art of reading, all literature is
within his reach"
The first thing to strive for"
says Miss Bordenave in discuss
ing the Spanish speaking primary
pupils. lis to get them to talk"
That, she says, gives the children
self-expression. They must first
of all earn the spoken word. Then
and not till then they should be
taught to recognize the visible
word Any satisfactory method of
teaching reading, she says, must
develop the power of automatic
word recognition.
Miss Bordenave took up the pro-
cess of teaching the Spanish-s speak
ing children how to read readily,
as well as how to talk the English
language fluently.

What To Do For Influenza.

Rest, warmth and quiet are the
three most potent remedies for this
disease and the best preventives of

quences. Go to bed as soon as the
first symptoms of the disease ap-
pear. Stay in bed until all danger
of a relapse has passed. When you
get up too soon and have a re-
lapse pneumonia is liable to follow.
Take Chamberlain Cough Rene
dy when needed to keep the cough

LIVE BABIES TESTED
BY CHILD WELFARE

one of the most interesting OF
the sectional meetings held yester-
day morning at the high school was
that Of the child welfare move
ment which was visited by a great
many of the teachers, even those
not dealing with small children ana
elementary work. The dependence
of mental development on proper
nutrition was discussed by Miss
Oda a. Nolds, field organizer Of
child welfare. Mrs. Max Nordhaus
urged the advantages of the Shep-
ard-TowneP bill, with its state ala
for mother and child, and Miss
Montana Hastings, state director OF
child welfare, outlined the work
az planned for New Mexico.
The child welfare legislation en-
acted in 1918 placed the movement
under the department of education,
and the resolutions passed by the
educational council Saturday. in
cluded one urging that the work
should remain under the jurisdic-
ton of the department OF educa-
ton.
Interesting tests of a six months
and an eleven months old baDy
we're made by Miss Hastings, whlle
Dean Frank CARBON of the Las
Vegas Normal school, discussed
their mental reactions. Hearing
and sight were tested with various
objects and sounds. The develop
ment of a baby can be readily de-
termined with simple tests, and its
normally determined.
