STIFF PROGRAM
FOR THE MINES

Phil Cordora. manager Of the Texas
School Of Mines basketball quintet
has arranged two big games Tor the
Miners. TO be staged during the next
two weeks. On the 2Sth Of this month
the Miners viii meet the New Mexico
Military institute, OF RosWeu, While
on the following Monday, February 2,
the Mines lads viii meet the univer-
sity Of Arizona Both games viii be
staged on the IN G. A. 1loor.
II comparative results may be 1lg-
ured. the Miners should take the Ros-
well cadets into camp in the game OF
the 28rh. The Miners and New Mexico
Aggies battled to a tie TO within a
when those two teams met As the
AEgies left the floor Rt that stage OF
the game the question Of superiority
is still in allegiance
Roswell Team Strong.
Recently the Aggies met the Ros-
we'll PLAYERS and defeated them by a
sufficient margin to make it decisive.
In the former game the Miners were
making their first appearances or the
season The Aggies, on the OLner
hand. had played several games. Ros-
well also had played several games
prior to meeting the AEEies. There
fore, both had advanced far enough
70 have gained something like mid
season form
The showing Of the Miners against
a
IL was not nearly az good as the fight
they staged against sag Shea and his
classy First National bank team last
Saturday night. Figuring that they
viii improve still further before fac
ing Roswell il looks as though the
Miners should defeat the cadets
However. comparative scores are not
always a true Indication, and Roswell
always stages a great scrap in any
event in which il is entered
Arizona Lines Up Well.
II is impossible to figure on the
game between the Miners and the
university Of Arizona. to be played
February ., for the reason that Ari-
IONA is an unknown quantity. Re
ports have IL that the team Is fully
as strong in its own line as was the
football team in its particular game.
II this statement is true, the Miners
will be due for mighty tough battle
when the two meet

IT'S milk, NOT "MILCH" COW.
Hereafter it will be "milk cow" and
not "milch cow"at least so far as the
United States department of agricul
ture is concerned.
The decision marks the termination
of a controversy in which etymolo
gists in the department have had not
little interest. Those defending
"milch" have pointed to scriptural use
and certain of the classics as estab-
fishing precedents, while the opposi-
tion has contended that dairymen,
ranchmen and farmers in general use
"milk" instead of "milch" almost uni
versally. The advocates of milk" al
so favored that word because, they
contended, it was more strictly an
English word, while "milch" was akin
to German. Since Americanization of
language as we'll as ideals is an ar
ticle in every patriots creed, it is
thought that this last sally of the
"milk" defenders helped as much as
any to decide the question in their
| favor.

The Russell Sage Foundation pays
fine tribute to the public schools of
Montana when, after a comparative
study, Montana schools are put at
the head of the list for efficiency and
high scholarship. Second place j.
given to the schools of California. The
foundation reports that the efficiency
of the schools have doubled in the
last fifty years. The foundation re-
ports that the comparative study was
made on evidence furnished by the
states themselves. The officer who
made the report served during the war
as chief statistical officer of the army.
Many of the farmers are disap-
pointed that much of their alfalfa has
winter killed. They are reseeding the
farms to alfalfa and some are putting
in other grains. Winter killing of al
falfa is caused by the thawing of the
surface of the ground leaving the
roots in the frozen soil underneath.
Then when the surface freezes again,
it heaves up and breaks the roots.
When the field is covered with water
and the water freezes over the alfal-
falfa is smothered. These are the
two reasons why alfalfa is killed out
during the winter. A poor stand Of
alfalfa does not pay. Anything less
than a 60 per cent does not pay Sc
many farmers are plowing up their
alfalfa fields and reseeding, which may
be done any time between now anc
late summer.

WATCH OUT

The director for the en- forcement of the national prohibition edict has spoken. In his opinion, sweet cider, fruit juices of all kinds, may properly be made the sub ject of investigation as to alcoholic content, and if found to contain more than the limit ascribed to soft drinks, To and behold, you are subject to the penalties of a liquor law violator. We're gettin' strickter and strickter. If your grape juice, in the ordinary course of nature, becomes possessed of more than one half of one percent, or whatever the amount may be, of alcohol watch out.

will be readily granted that no company has any right to issue false statements to push the sale of its shares, but as long as the small in- vestor can ascertain to his own satisfaction the precise nature of the stock he buys, surely there is no call for the intervention of the law, save, perhaps, insofar as legisla- ton might be passed that would prevent him from act ing upon any except the sanest judgment. But the jurisdiction of the laws stops long before it gets that far.
 There would be much less Legislation enacted if the legislators themselves knew when to stop legislating. (Oil Register.)

TRAINS INTERFERE
 WITH TRAFFIC
Need for Overhead Walk
 or a Subway

In these days of long freight trains, itis becoming more and more noticeable that traffic between the north and south portions of the town is unduly impeded. Frequent instances of block ing of the roadway for long periods of time7can be cited, and in many instances it would seem to the average man that this blockade is unnecessary, although there may be a reason for it that can be explained. It seems that these long freights re- quire considerable time to make air connections after being coupled, and probably the railroads arguments for the necessity of blocking the roadway is as strong as the arguments of the citizens against it.
 A solution of the situation can be partially arranged it would seem by building an overhead walk, spanning all tracks. Much time is lost daily through inability of citizens to go from the north to the south side and the practice of going under, through and over the stand ing trains is becoming of more and more occurrence. Frequently small children crawl through the trains rather than take a chance on being late for school. Sooner or later some regrettable ac- cident will result and it would seem the part of wis dom as well as tend to con- venience if the council would take up this matter and see if it is not possible to build an overhead walk or a sub- wayover orunder the tracks.
 In order to be sure of ar- irving at the depot in time to take passenger trains it is necessary for those on the south side of the tracks to start early, for frequently freights which have been un- coupled to clear the crossing, couple at the first whistle of the oncoming passenger, and sometimes before, effectually blocking any who have start ed late from reaching the depot unless by crawling under or through the freight.
 It is a common belief that the roadway is blocked now more than is absolutely nee essary by trains. A block ade of ten, fifteen and twenty minutes is nothing unusual.
 Agent J. M. Lee is en. deavoring to minimize the inconvenience as much aE possible but the situation cannot be satisfactorily rem edied unless means are taker to provide either overhead or subway crossings.

 THE STORY.
 This is the romance of a man who retained his faith in human nature and found that faith rewarded. Jesse Smith, a shipwrecked sailor, is washed up on the shores of Southern Texas. The cowboys of the region rescue him from a serious predica- ment, and make him one of them, but not being ''city broke" he successively be- comes the tool of a crook and the dupe of an advent uress. The latter, to satisfy a whim and to win a ribald wager, tricks the sailor-cow- boy into marrying her. But it is not long before Jesse's illusions are shattered and the true character of his wife is revealed to him. Deter mined to make the best of a bad bargain, he decides to take this wife of his out into the open and try the ennob- ling influences of the great outdoors upon her distorted soul. To carry out his plan, he sets fire to his wife's lodg- ings, destroying all her prop erty, so that there may be nothing to return to. when once she is removed from her old environment. But the woman, rather than submit to the enforced moral cleans ing planned for her, feigns suicide, and Jesse, believing her dead, sets out for the great solitudes alone.
 There, Jesse encounters Kate Trevor, an opera singer, who has brought her hus- band into the wilderness in the vain hope that the out door life may restore his fail ing health. But the wilder ness which adds to the strength of the strong, over whelms the weakling, and Trevor, striving to master his loneliness with strong drink, succumbs to his pas sions, his jealousies and weakness. Jesse finds hope of happiness in the love of a good woman, who like him has suffered, but once again the shadows of the past ob- trude themselves. The same crook who had been respon- sible for Jesse's matrimonial misstep, stumbles upon his nest in the wilderness, and desiring Kate for himself, sends for Jesse's supposed dead wife. From this point on exciting events culminate in big dramatic situations until the crooks dying con fession finally clears the way for the future happiness of the lovers in the wilds.
