S|MNS PRIZE IN
ENGLISH CREATED
At UNIVERSE
Award Named For Katherine
Mather Simms, Descend
ant of Early President OF
Harvard University.

The movement to establish prizes
and scholarships at the State uni
versity gained still another impetus
on Wednesday through the instru-
mentality of Albert G. Simms,
president of the Citizens National
bank of Albuquerque. For some
time the need has been felt for
additional stimulus in the matter Of
affording added incentive for eX-
cellence in the work of English
composition upon the part of stu
dents at the State university. The
state university of New Mexico does
not possess the large number OF
prizes and scholarships which are
usually offered to students in the
older colleges and universities OF
the country, although a substantial
beginning has been made.
On Wednesday, Mr.. Simms mott
fled President Hill that he was
setting aside the sum of $3.50 to be
delivered to the board of regents,
the cash interest of which is to be
used perpetually as a prize for eX-
cellence in English composition.
1t has been thought appropriate
by the board of regents to give this
prize tho name of Mrs. Simms, who
is highly respected and loved by
her friends in Albuquerque and
elsewhere.
A fact not generally known in
Albuquerque is that Mrs. Simms
CATHERINE Mather Simms) is
direct descendant of an early pres
ident of Harvard college, the Rev
erend Increase Mather. 1t is be-
lieved to be particularly approprl-
ate therefore that his great-grand-
daughter should have her name
permanently associated with the
annual award at commencement
exercises of the State university
with this prize, which will intensity
interest and effort in that greatest
of intellectual arts, English com
position, in its manifold phases.
The new professors in the depart
ment of English, L. z. Hessler A.
B., A. M, Phi. D., of the University
of Pennsylvania, and G. S. Hubbell,
A. B., A. NJ, Phi. D., of Princeton
university, upon taking up their
work at the beginning of the aca-
demic year, will find added encour-
agement in the fact that friends
such as Mrs Simms are coming to
the front in emphasizing the i'm
portance and value of excellence
in the study of English. Mrs. Simms
is now in the east and doubtless
will be surprised at the honor
which has been conferred upon
her by the board of regents upon
the recommendation of President
Hill

MOTHERS DAY SUNDAY.
 MAY 9TH

To Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia, Penn, belongs the honor of originating and propagatng the idea of Mothers Day. This is sufficient immortaze Miss Jar wis.
 Mothers Day is fitting and proper it brings to all realization that trials worries and sefabnegatons have been naugh compared to that she has endured rear from babyhood And the instances are almost without number of relegatng mother to the back ground of life Not intentionally, mind you but be- cause of negligence And patient angel that she has a ways been she did not complain but would proudly say "That is my boy" or That is my daughter
 If your mother is still alive let this be your day of worshpfu appreciation that you still have her. Send her flowers write to herwire her, but don't neglect her.
 If your mother has passed on give few moments in prayer this saint who stood between you and all the world in your babyhood. You can never pay the debt you owe her.-Editor

Monsieur L'lub, on reading our description of him last week, burst into French so rapid and vehement that we were unable to translate. 'Tis q pity. for we feel certain that many Yalu- able additions to our profane vocabulary were missed. Three applications in the left ear of Jill pickle calmed the savant. Repeated inquiry brought to fight the grievance. L'lub ln- slsts, reiterates and proves his contention: One of his feet is right, and the other is only half right. Followed apologies pro- found, and we detailed two of flee boys to open the questions and answers mail. So, to our work.

WOULD PROBE LEGION CLAIMS
international Association of Rotary Clubs, Shocked at Reports, Orders
 Nationwide Survey.

Aroused by charges of the Ameri- can Legion that the government has failed in it's duty toward disabled vet erans of the World war, the board of directors of the International ASSocia- tion of Rotary Clubs has ordered a nationwide survey of the situation ito prove whether American Legion reports are based on hysteria or upon actual facts"
 The Rotary organization has in- dorsed the Legion's consolidation pro- gram for the relief to the disabled and will support the Legion's efforts to obtain its enactment into law, ac- cording to Chesley H. Perry of Chi cago, secretary general of the Rotary clubs organizations.
 "The 10000 American business and professional men who form the SOO Rotary clubs of the United States, have started out to gather the actual facts in their respective communities with regard to the manner in which the United States government Is handling the cases of disabled ex-sol- diers." Mir. Perry stated in a letter to F. w. Galbraith, IT,, commander Of the Legion.
 "The ROtarians have been shocked by the disclosures made by the Ameri- can Legion regarding the circum- stances surrounding the rehabilitation of Uncle Sam's disabled eX-service men. Each Rotary club is appointing a special committee to investigate conditions in its community and re- port to the club. Every club will then report to the headquarters office of Rotary in Chicago. The result will be that from 500 communities in every part of the United States will come evidence of business ard professional men to prove to the American people whether or not the American Legion reports are based on hysteria or upon actual facts so revolting and heart rending as to cause the whole Ameri- can people to rise in their might and do justice to the men who sacrificed themselves for their country
 The LegioE's national commander asserted that his organization will welcome the Rotary investigation.
 q hope its findings will be given the widest publicity" he said. "It will be found that the Legion has not overstated the case in any particular"

U. s. OILS THE WORLD

w. C. Teage, Pres. of the Standard Oil Co.,, in dis cussing the world petroleum problem says:
 The worlds petroleum situation it exists today is this:
 The demand is keeping pace with production and bears every promise of expanding future rapidly more crude can be supplied. s%s9a
 It is conservative estimate that the world consump- ton whchin 1920 took 3 OOO 900 barrels and this year is using 65 000 900 barrels will call for close to 700 900 barrels in 1921.
 Where and how is this production to be obtained?
 The U s. is now spending it's petroleum wealth for the worlds benefit in order to meet 70 per cent of the worlds present demand
 Mir. Teage points out that have done this because we have had the most accessible oil but he emphasizes that in the future must not only deveIope our own but must proceed actively and integenty to develop oil resources in foreign lands with proper CO., operation

The U. s. Mine Sweeping Detach- ment has just returned from it's work In the North Seas. The ever present danger of floating mines was counter acted by the sharp eyesight of the men who were behind the guns. Their job was to pick off the mines as they appeared and explode them by direct hits. The lives of the other men aboard and the safety of the ship de pended on their keenness.
 A large proportion of the 55,00O mines laid in the North Seas by the U. S. Navy was destroyed in this way.
 This is just one of the jobs that comes in the career of U. S. sailor ; one of the experiences that gives him a grip on himself and makes him q regular fellow.

Ay is it that fishes make no o9s tUEbRnce when swimming through the water, although there is a rushing noise when a stone is flung in? This is explained by the fact that, in the latter case, it is the filling of the cav ity that is made, rather than the mere impact, which causes the noise, where as the body of the fish is so shaped that when it moves through the water 1t leaves no such cavity behind # and therefore there Is no disturbance
