And they were not disappointed. up, all under the age of 14 years—the age limit prescribed by the compulsory | education law—and they were promptly relieved from further duty. Scores of boys and girls slightly over 14 years were found who should have been in school, but these were exempt- ed on the presentation of a card de- claring them over the age limit and signed by the principal of a night school of which they were members— more or less regularly. The greatest difficulty is found by the school officers in the Latin quarter. Here a large percentage of parents speak no English, and it is a difficult task to make them understand that the law has a right to interfere in thelr family arrangements, although the Board of Education has caused to be published cards bearing upon the law in Spanish, Italian and Portuguese. It is among these peopie that education is valued the least and where the least effort is made to obtain it. And, withal, their ignorance, while indefensible, is absolute bliss and the family relation one of joy. However, it is a spot where- in vice thrives on its ignerance, and the spot that the school authorities must delve into with vigor. The schools most affected by the “cannery” habit—the proceeds of which are considered “pick-up” money and is used to purchase the grapes that will ferment into the family wine for the year—are Lafayette, Garfield, Irving, Hancock, Cooper and Washington. There is some trouble for the truant officers on the south side, but most of that is deliberate truancy—hence the School. Here it Is hoped, by a special kind of training (based on a knowledge of each boy's personality and environment), that good results will ensue. The school is in working erder now, with Miss Ray Alexander m charge of the class, under the supervision of Principal Richard K. Faulkner. The work of the schoel will necessa- rily be slow, but with proper handling it cannot but prove of infinite value, even as it has in Chicazo, New York, Boston, Philadelphia and other pro- gressive cities. The club women will keep in close teuch with the schoel, lending their aid wherever possible—which, by the way, Mr. hnlkx.u leen .

Among the many matters taken up Julius Kruttschnitt, director of maintenance and operations of the Harriman lines, and General Manager Markham during the former's recent visit to this city, were plans for a branch line from Clifton, Ariz., to Du- rango, Colo., the route of which is soon to be surveyed by the company’'s engineers. The Harriman officials have been by | made to appreciate the importance of And this is a mawar‘l this line by the great demand for low coal and coke needed by the low- grade mines of Arizona and New Mex- ico. This grade of coal is to be found in abundance in Southwestern Colo- rado. It is the intention of the rail- road company to build its new line through the northern part of New Mexico. The Arizona and New Mex- ico branch of the Southern Pacific now extends as far as Clifton, from which point the Southern Pacific can build through almost the entire length of New Mexico, a distance of several hundred miles, and give the coal mines of Southern Colorado an outlet by way of El! Paso, Galveston and New Orleans. At the same time the road will give large sections of New Mexico and Arizona an opportunity to secure fuel for the operation of their| mining regions. \ pric e — COOL WEATHER KEEPS CROWD FROM BEACH A Few in Search of Recreation Visited the Park, but Did Not i Stay Long.
