Farris, who was tried last week for
incest with his seventeen-year-old
daughter, returned a verdict of mot
guilty" CONSERVATION reigned all over

people who had listened to the testi-.
mony and those who had kept up with
the case realized that the jury had
actually turned the defendant loose,
their feeling turned to condemnation
and they began to express it in no
uncertain terms. Farris received no.

leave town within twenty-four hours,
which he did.

Three hundred and fifty students
and instructors at the New Mexico
College OF Agriculture and Mechanic
Arts, on Saturday, demonstrated the
fact that curtailment Of state appro-
priations to educational institutions
though a serious handicap, need not
be an insurmountable obstacle.
Promptly at eight O'Clock every able
bodied man in the student body and
the faculty reported for work on the
road from the college campus to the
canine real, a stretch of road that
has long needed Improvement.
Trucks, t~railers, and wagons were
furnished by the State and County
Highway commissions, and the labor
for loading, unloading and spreading
the gravel was supplied by the college
Six hundred cubic yards OF gravel
were hauled from the college pits and
spread on the half mile stretch OF
road.
The students and instructors were
divided into squads Of six each, under
command Of a corporal. The work
was under the direction OF Mr.. Crow
der OF The County Highway commits
sion and Dean Goddard OF the col
.lege.
The girls of the college, women
teachers and faculty wives served
dinner to the men at work along the
road.
The road had been graded previ-
on y. so with the gravel surface, the
college can now boast of a well built
road.
