All 6children will report to the rooms in which they belonged last year and remain there until trans-t erred. Parents are urged to see that their children enter school the first day. The child who enters late, or is absent frequently, not only interferes with the work of the teacher and the other children but is very often seriously handicapped in his school progress. On account of the financial stringency, two changes have been made in enrollment: 1. At this time children may not be admitted to school (that is to Grade IB) whose sixth birthdays fall on or after November 1.

This does not apply to children who have been promoted from kindergarten; 2. No person above school age (21) may be permitted to attend school. All text books are sold to the children at cost, effecting a saving of 15 to 35. This is done System store.

Sunday and Monday, September 4 and 5. All the greens have been screened and re-levelled and all approaches have been cleared of rocks. The hazards have been cleared and all the banks raked. A new ditch hazard has been constructed alongside the No. 5 green.

This ditch will drain the big ditch across the No. 5 fairway. An imposing list of prizes, which are on display at the Deming Ice and Electric company, will make the contestants work hard in this tournament. Prizes are so arranged th4t one-half of the players in each flight will win something. Many of the local golfers have already qualified.

The qualifying round of 18 holes is to be played Sunday morning, beginning at 7 oclock. It is hoped that all will have qualified before 12:30. The play in the first round will begin at 1:30 Sunday afternoon. Just prior to this time the auction for the Calcutta pool will be held. Contestants are urged to be ready to tee off at 1:30 Sunday afternoon.

Monday morning the second round will be played, the course opening at Sunday afternoon at 2 oclock the finals will be started. Local people are invited, and urged, to be on hand to witness the finals. Even those who do not play golf will enjoy watching this final round and the club will appreciate having a big gallery on hand. While it is not possible to predict how many will be entered in the tournament, club officials have been led to believe that players will be here from Silver City, Hurley, Las Cruces, Alamogordo Paso and Clovis. It is hoped that at least 50 will be on hand.
