Reports to the state headuuar-

Salvation Army campaign for funds
is starting off in good shape.

the heads of the two divisions. of
the county in the campaign.

Kegel, secretary, and Ray T. Ha-
ner, chairman of organization, re-
ports the first day of the drive,
S51S.30, one-third of its quota, and
only part of Ration touched SO far.
Mckinley county, with Palmer
Ketner, chairman, reported more
than $500 raised by advanced sub
scriptions before the opening of
the campaign. Don't worry about
Mckinley county," writes Mrs. c..
A Darlington, chairman or organ
ization, "for we will do our bit as
we always have and the quota will
more than be reached.
In Luna county, Deming raised
more than one-third of the quota
of $500 the first day, and A. A.
Tempke, chairman, says the quota
and more will be reached by Sat-
urday night.
Clovis reports $307.55 from the

In Hidalgo, the baby county Of

quota first day and says that they
will reach the top without fail.
Lincoln, Otero and Valencia
counties report on a whole almost
a third of their quota, on advance
gifts before the campaign.
Other counties report progress
but no figures yet given.
New Mexico's quota of $4,000
as a total will be reached, | feel
sure, if the campaign managers
over the state stay with the job
until the whole field is covered,

mittee to Journal reporter yes

All the money raised in the coun-
ties where is no corps is used for
general relief work in the state and
province, while each city of the
state with a corps must finance its
own corps and buildings where
there are buildings. This accounts
for Albuquerque's $4,000 quota,
which otherwise would appear
large.
No work was done in Albuquer-
que yesterday, as, due to the ter
rifle wind storm Thursday and
Thursday night the women were
compelled to take a day off to
clean the sand out of their homes.

You Will Never Be Cured
by Local Treatment
+$ With Sprays

Catarrh is a condition of the
blood and can not be cured by
local applications of sprays and
touches; this has been proven by
the thousands who have vainly
resorted to this method OF treat
ment.
Catarrh should not be neglected
or experimental with. The wrong
treatment is valuable time lost,
during which the disease is getting
a firmer hold upon its victim, and
making it more difficult for even
the proper treatment to accomplish
results.
Though Catarrh makes it's first

PASSING COMMENT

, edited papers, but the critics are
not always happy in their choice of
things to critise. Take for instance
the frequent objection made to
ending a sentence with a preposi-
ton. A correspondent, in a recent
communication, insists that this is
a very sloppy" thing to do, and
asks the editor to be more careful.
Z Well the editor, referring to a
college professor who is an admit
ted authority on the use of correct
English, is informed that the fault
complained of has been committed
regularly by nearly all the great
writers of English literature.
Take this sentence, from Shake
speare: my master sees the dan
ger that you, his friend, are in"
Or this from the Old Testament:
80 the messenger showed David
all that Joab had sent him for" Or
this from Addison: Everything
she admires or takes delight in. >"
Or this from Wordsworth; "A
principle that ought never to be
lost sight Of" Or this from Mat
thew Arnold: "The universal or
der which it is mans happiness to
go along with or his misery to go
counter to-"
These passages sound all right,
do they not? And with very good
reason, for the use of a proposition
in this way-is idomatic in the Eng
lish language, as it is in the Ger
man. To show the absurdty Of
any other view, try turning the eX-
amples given into the artificial
form the ''purists" recommend:
MY master sees the danger in
which you, his friend, are" $50
the messenger showed David all
for which Joab had sent him" "a
principle of which sight ought new
er to be lost" etc. Do they not
sound absurd? The ear is the best

SOURCE--A given name.

This family name, like so many

first by the use of the prefix APP
meaning "son off, with a Christian
or given name.
In the earliest records Bethel is
found as ap-Ithel Ithel was a
given name of great popularity in
the Wales of the middle ages,
though today it would be an oddly
to find a man who bore it as a
first name, like John or James
Prior to the twelfth and thir-
teenth centuries there were no
family names in northern Europe.
Where 1t became necessary to dis
ttinguish> between two men of the
same name it was sufficient to do
so by referring to their parentage
or to some individual characters
tic, such as "Bede, the son or
wulf,". or "Harald Broad-head.
At first such names were not pass
ed down from father to son. But
the growth of population necessi-
tated a more permanent system
than this. and so through period
of several centuries sons began to
take the descriptive names of their
fathers and pass them on in turn
to their own children.
So today. Ithel, which has dis
appeared as a given name, sur
wives in changed form as a family
name. 1t became successfully APP
