THE POWER OF THE PRESS
William Mather Lewis Pays Tribute
to the Newspaper Men of
the Country

"But the most universal agency in
spreading the message of the Thrift
and Savings Movement has been the
Press. In metropolitan daily and in
country weekly have appeared un-
counted news columns and editorial
articles. The patriotic service of
those who direct the policy of the
American Press has never yet receiv-
ed its due praise, and in winning the
nation away from wastefulness there
is but given an added demonstration
of high purpose and broad vision"
The above paragraph is taken from
an address delivered by William
Mather Lewis, director of the Saw
ings Division, Treasury Department.
The Eighth Federal Reserve District,
which is among the leaders in the
sale of Treasury Savings Certifi-
Gates and War Savings Stamps, could
not have made the splendid record it
did, had not the press of Missouri,
Arkansas and Kentucky given the
support it has. In the Liberty Loan
campaigns this district was always
first to go ':over the top" and it is
keeping up its reputation.

Like the leaves on trees, the race of
man is found,
Now green in youth, now whitening
on the ground;
Another race the following spring
supplies,
They fall successive, and successive
rise;
So generations, in their course, de-
cay,
SO flourish these, when those are
passed away.

DRAMATIC CLUB.

The Lost Child" was the title Of
2 humorous pantomime presented
Wednesday afternoon by the menu
bers of the High School Dramatic
club This was the first of the pan
tomimes which will be put on

number of them, original themes
arranged by members of the club
which is composed of students from
the three upper classes, are prac-
ticed at every meeting, and from
these the best is selected for pre-
sentation at the bi-weekly program.
A farce, clever reading or perhaps
music, will also be used in the pro
grams, which begin at $40. Prac-
ticing for the presentations must be
done out of school hours. There
were four characters in THE Lost
Child" an out of-doors scene. Res
ester de Laney as the child, Mar
garet yesterday as the mother,
Lorene Maharam, the nurse, and
Eley Glassman, furnished a most
amusing pantomime. The panto-
mime for the next program will be
"Jiggs."

of the welfare service to fit work

cooperation of A. b. Stroup Of

and will request the next legisla-

with some proposed legislation, and

At the recent meeting OF the
State Federation of Women's Clubs
held at Tucumcari october IA, 10
and 16, vote of thanks was eX-
tended to Mr.. Stroup for his work
in the codification of the laws
which he stated were extremely
good, requiring little amendment.
This work was done at the re-
quest of the Child Welfare service.
The Legislature is TO be requested
TO print 500 copies of the laws for
distribution, and to appoint a COM
mittee to serve without pay for
their study and revision.
Mrs. Nordhaus Receives Ovation.
When Mrs. Max Nordhaus, state
chairman of the Child Welfare
committee, appeared at the con-
vention she was escorted TO seat
in the presidents chancel. Other
Albuquerque women who attended
the convention as delegates were
Mrs. j. G. Gould, president of the
Womans clubs; Mrs. George VAL
liant representing the Tuesday Lit
trary club; Mrs. A. b. Stoup and
Mrs. H. f. La Belle.
A brief and yet comprehensive
synopsis of the state laws regard
ing women and children was drawn
up by Mrs. T. J. Mabry, one of the
few women in the state who have
been admitted to the bar, and this
in pamphlet form was distributed
at the convention.
One of the interesting provisions
of our laws is that concerning com
munity property. Upon the death of
the wife the community property
belongs entirely to the husband
without administration, but upon
the husbands death one half of the
community property passes to the
wife and the other half he may
dispose of by will.
Proposed Laws.
A synopsis of proposed laws re-
lating to women and children was
compiled by the legislative com
mittee of the general Federation
of Women's clubs, and the state
child welfare board, of which Mrs,
r. P. Barnes was chairman, and
on which Mrs. Nordhaus and Mrs.
Mabry served.
The proposed laws are mainly
those embodied in the platforms OF
the progressives of both political
parties, and include provisions for
child welfare; rights of guardian
ship, in which both parents be held
as joint and equal guardians of
the child; property rights; public
health; Just pay for school teach
ers; equal rights for women, grant
ing them the right to hold all pub
lie offices; the passage of child
labor law, and the enforcement OF
the juvenile court act.
