Speak the good word instead. That man Villa is the most ac commodating cuss on earth. Just when the daily press is short on material for scare heads he hobs up serenely and sup plies the needful for more thrill ers. There comes a time in the life of most men when they see their own imperfections more vividly than others see them. It is then that they are on their way to becoming better men of nobler deeds. An Oklahoma editor tells of an old Indian that came into his office to subscribe for the paper. The editor took the money, then the Indian wanted a receipt. The editor tried to talk him out of it, but Mr. Indian insisted on getting the receipt. After mak ing it the editor wanted to know why he wanted to know why he was so persistent about wanting a receipt. The Indian said: “Me die same time. Go to big gate and St. Peter ask if I been good Indian. I sav yes. He say, did you pay debts? I say yes. He say, did you pay editor for paper? I say yes. He say, where is receipt? I no have it. I have to run all over hell to find you and get receipt.” The school tax is a very diff erent tax from any other that the people have to pay. Other taxes are imposed upon them by legislatures and other represent ative bodies to which authority has been delegated. The people have no direct voice in the mat ter and are helpless, but in the matter of local school taxes the case is quiet different. The lo cal school tax is assessed and collected only by the direct con cent of the voters concerned. The money collected by the lo-1 cal school tax is not sent to some distant part of the State to be spent, possibly for the benefit of other people, but it is used in the district in which it is voted, and for the people who do the voting. In its final analysis it should not be considered a tax at all, but a simple, convenient and eco nomical system for collecting a sum of money to be invested in the lives and happiness of the boys and girls of the community’ Co. K Notes Last night Pvt. Walls upon being aroused by an awful rack et, ran outside and found two goats perched on top of his tent. These same goats have a habit of coming into our tents at night and making away with various articles of clothing, this morning there was one goat short, as well as one of Sergt. Valentine’s socks. Putting two and two to gether we deduct that the goat ate the sock and the sock got the goat’s goat. Sergt. Valen tine says he intends to get some “Hell on Hair,’’then we won’t be bothered with them any more. Here’s hoping our new com mander won’t retire from the service while we are here. This war may be alright but for the life of me. I can’t see what we brought the guns for. Pvt. Boozman, our ‘‘Guard house Lawyer,” says they can’t keep us here. (Can’t put a Non Com. in the- “Booby-Hatch” either) Won’t some one please recue us from the awful clutches of these loan sharks? We notice quite a few soldiers going around with their eye brows slipped down over their mouths. Glad to say none of Co. K wears “germ catchers.” Corp. Williams, like Russell Rice of the 2nd Arkansas Band, is minus his trousers and con fined to his “budoir” where he positively refuses to see any one. He has those goats to thank for this latest outrage. And we don’t draw clothing until Friday, either. $25.00 reward for the scoun drel who put the cactus under Pvt. Barton’s blanket. Barton now takes his meals standing up. Since the hike Tuesday, sever al have patent leather shoes, (leather top with feet pattin’ the ground.) Four of our company made a trip to Silver City last Sunday. It is a very picturesque little city, built all over the mountains so different from Deming, just like the western towns you read about, or see in the movies.

The new silver coins,- half dollars, quarters and dimes, which got into circulation last fall, are being sent out over the country and will soon be finding their way into the pocket of the average citizen For awhile they will probably attract atten tion equal to that given the buffalo nickel and the Lincoln penny in their days. For the first time in the nation’s history the legend. “In Cod We Trust,” which has adorned the dollar and about which there was much debate a few years ago, will ap pear on the face of the silver dime. It is stated that the coin age of the present designs will cease within a year. Under the laws governing the coinage of the United States, designs and devices on any coins may not be changed within 25 years after the adoption of the exist ing ones. The emblems now in use on the half dollar, quarter and dime were adopted in 1891. “Mirandy, for goodness sake, don’t let dem chickens outer dis here yard.
