MEXICO.S FIRST NEED.

IN Judging Mexico The first is the assumption that
the Mexican people are capable of responsiveness TO
the same appeals that move the average populace

Mexicans are ignorant and semi-civilized The truth
lies in both errors. rather than between the
for there two Mexcos. the suave cultured aris-
tocratc uppercrust primitive, vicious under

More than half of the inhabitants of Mexico can
neither read nor write They are mostly Indians
whose chief is clannish of pride in
their nativity They are content to accept the prom
ises and the leadership Of almost any leader who
can prove possession of a strain OF their blood
and who will assuase their immediate hunger with
food and hay aspirations with promises. The

TESTING ROAD SOILS.

benefit Of this information in road construction.
The department OF agriculture will make wide in
vestigaons along these lines in the near future and
the resulting information should be most useful.
Manifestly soil which tends stand up well un-
der heavy loads is better for road foundation than
which shifts easily dsintegrates raIidy when

HOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL
CBy Our Office Bowl

Our office boy. after hours OF per-
suasion, finally consented today 10
give US an exclusive interview, on
how 10 succeed, as follows:
RULE ONE-Never do today what
you can coyly Iut off until tomor-
row and get away with it.
RULE TWO-An employer is a
despot Of the most fiendish kind.
Treat him as such. Ascertain his
first name before you go to work
and use It at all times. II before you
apply for the position you are IN
able to get his first name. address
him as "Old Kid" Slap him on the
back frequently and push him in
whenever possible.
RULE THREE-Your absence
from the Office during rush hours
is always appreciated. The time 10
hang around the office is during
meal hours and after everyone has
went home for the day.
RULE FOUR-Avoid reporting for
duty before 10 o'clock in the a. m.
Arriving before this hour is liable to
be misconstrued and arouse suspi-
cion that you are ambitious. Our
union positively forbids our showing
any such tendencies.
RULE FIVE-Never fail 70 be
gone hours for lunch. This makes
you keenly ar preciated when you do
finally show up.
RULE SIX-Get all your com
panions 20 hang around the Office at
all times. They are great company
for us office boys, and the workers
seem 10 resent the big crowds. En-
courage playing and quarreling
amongst your mates. I once knew =
very prosperous office boy who got
into a sham hattie with filled ink
bottles with his companions in his
office. This office boy in later years
turned out TO be very successful-as
a bandit.

Joy.

JOY.
JOY is one of the glad" names
1t stands alone as an abstract virtue.
popular in this Pollyanna-ish era.
But il has an interesting etymologi-
cal history as well. Il comes from
the Greek "!Ovai." of which the
Latin equivalent is jocus; the French
joie; and the English joy.
From jocuS came the Armorican
prince, Jodocus. belonging TO a fam
lily which migrated from Wales. He
refused the sovereignty of Brittany
and became a hermit in Ponthieu.
where he is now remem bered as St
jesse. The feminine of his name.
Jodoca. is still popular in Wales.
England formed from IL Jocosa,
which straightway became Joyce.
The latter form IS much used in
England today as well as in this
country where its contraction is
generally JOY, despite the fact that
Joy has the right TO separate exist
ence. The French JOcelyn is a
graceful and musical equivalent
adopted by us and in popular usage
The turquoise is joys talismanic
stone. II is the symbol of pros
perity though il Is the simplest Of
stones and has the power 10 protect
its weaTer in any venture whether
from disease or accident Tuesday
is her lucky day and ! her lucky
number.
