AMENDMENT . IS RIGHT STEP
SAYS HUGH II. WILLIAMS

Amendment No. 5, which removes
some of the corporation commissions
shackles, if not all, is a steD in the
right direction, Hugh H. Williams,
states i'm letter TO Claude
Simpson, secretary, Roswell cham
Der of commerce.
Mr.. Williams discloses that the
commission submitted
an amendment TO the fifth lcgisla-
tWe which, it was believed fully
carried out the republican platform
pledge but which. like much other
legislation that might handicap the
bigger corporations, was put to sleep
in the senate.
Amendment No >, which will be
submitted at the September 20 cleo
lion, was substituted for the corpor-
alton commissions draft. This was
not exactly what the commission
wanted, Mr. Williams says, but will
give it additional power.
After pointing out the commission
lacks the right of suspending tho
increase scheduled by the telephone
company, the letter says:
During the recent session of the
legislature we prepared a resolu-
ton proposing an amendment TO The
constitution giving the commission
! the power Of suspension and alsC
! placing the burden of proof to jus.
| tify rates upon the carriers and 9th.
|er public service corporations com
ling under the jurisdiction of The
! commission. This Joint resolution
was passed by The house, but wa
never reported out Of committee il
the senate.
subsequently another joint reso
Tuition with the suspension feature
eliminated and modified to some eN
tent as TO the burden of proof, wa
introduced in the house and passe
both the house anG senate and thi
proposed amendment will be vote
on at the special election to be hel
| on September 90
while the amendment is not ey
actly what we wanted yet we fec
that it is a step in the right direc
lion and that eventually the lcgisla
ture will see to it that he commits
sion's powers are made more effect
i've Certainly in the face of exist
ing public sentiment, the Legislature
will not attempt to take from TIN
commission what little powers
already has, unless il is abolished al
| together.

A RECORD BREAKING CROWD

The Fifth Annual Roundup is now
la mater of history, and will be re-
membered as one of the biggest
events in the history of The town.
Fhc attendance on the first day was
good, hut the second day witnessed
what is reported to be the largest
attendance that ever entered the To-
cal fair grounds.
The program this year was made
lup of all strictly high class attrac-
tions and was participated in by the
best in that line of business.
There was one thing which the

out the whole afternoon, with the
least possible delay in events The
bulldogging events were especially
good. The steers used were large,
strong animals, ana II took the best
TO bring them down Jim Massey,
who holds the worlds championship
record in bulldogging, brought his
steer to the ground in i3 seconds
flat, which was the record time
made; this was made on the first
day.
The steer riding brought the most
applause and it took some riders
to ride these bucking steers. Red
Taylor, one of the clowns, gave an
exhibition of steer riding in front of
the grand stand and Red was some
rider, too.
The trick riding was performed by
! Mrs. Angelo Hughes, and this little
/ lady in her fancy riding habit exc
! cutcd stunts That seemed almost inn
/ possible, and had any circus per-
/ formance beat a mile. Her eXhibi-
ton was received with much ap-
plausc.
/ The trick roping was performed
: by Billy King of Garden City, and
Geo. Newton Bom of these men
are artists in this line, and their
lWork met with hearty approval.
Billy King is only a kid, not quite
, i6 years Old and is one of the great
, est trick ropers in the game. He
eot first money in steer roping the
second day. This kid who is a school
boy is a drawing card wherever he
goes and his services are in demand
at all big events. He is a personal
friend Of Elmer Ray, and came here
because Mr.. Ray was one of the

LITTLE PLAYS TO ACT AT HOME.
BY Mary Frances Davis

A prominent educator says that no
knowledge becomes a useful part of
us until we have translated it into ac-
ton. That is why small children love
to play the thing which claims their
interest at any moment. After seeing
a parade, little boy loves to assume
stiff military bearing, seize stick
for a flag, impress all available chill
6ren as soldiers, ana start a parade.
Every mother of little girl knows
how very early baby girls begin to
play at housekeeping. They love to
wash clothes, iron. sweep, dust and
mother" their dolls. They should be
encouraged in these activities
This is the natural instinct of dram
atization, and can be utilized in de-
veloping desirable qualities in child,
And in impressing useful knowledge,
for the child comes to understand
doing. Children love to fly
like birds, creep softly like mice, and
gallop like ponies. After a trip to the
Zoo, they have many glorious after
maths, of pleasure in roaring like the
lions, climbing like the monkeys. and
initiating the antics of the bears. A
wise mother will fortify her nerves,
and encourage her child in this, for
in assuming the roles of various ami
mails, the child is coming to under
stand them, and to make them part
of his general knowledge.
Children of kindergarten age. or
even younger, love to "act' the stories
they know. Mother Goose rhymes are
enjoyed by all the little folks and
mothers will find that children take
keen delight in dramatizing them.
After the children are thoroughly
familiar with the incidents of Miss
Muffet, Jack Horner and Jack and Jill,
let them be those characters. In our
own nursery. we find this happy way
to spend rainy mornings. Little Miss
8Iuffet sits on a foot<stool, industri-
ously eating make-believe curds and
whey from large tin plate, with a
small tin spoon. We all recite the
