YOU'LL SURE Mss 1T
II You Don't Celebrate the Fourth
at Manzanola.

Messrs. Sprinkler. Shelton, Brown.
Steele. Manning. Shaulis and Aylor, the
committee appointed by the Rocky Ford
Commercial Club to assist in making the
coming Fourth Of July celebration at
Manzanola screaming success, went up
to cur neighboring town on Monday to
see for themselves what preparations
were being made for the entertainment
and comfort Of our people on the great
day.
There they met similar committees
from Fowler. Sugar City. and Swink,
who were there upon like mission. and
were escorted to Riverside Park. which
will be formerly opened on Independence
Day. And what they saw most agree
ably surprised every visitor. as they had
not imagined there was such beautiful
resort in Otero county.
Riverside Park. which is on the north
bank of the Arkansas river. was na.ur-
al beauty spot before the people Of Man
zanola ;ried to improve upon nature. but
it has been be autified to a remarkable
degree. The grounds have been cleared
of undergrowth and debris, shaded drive
ways have been opened through the
greensward. and swings. pavilion, ETC..
add their adornment.
A beautiful little lake OF about a mile
in length is an added adornment and will
prove the great attraction on the Fourth.
The lake is from four to eight feet in
depth and has a nice sandy bottom and
the beech is lined with bath houses in
readiness for those who seek pleasure
in the water. A steam launch and plenty
OF boats will accommodate those seeking
aquatic amusement without getting wet.
and many other features thoughtfully
prepared for the great occasion. assured
the committee that they could lend every
endorsement to the project Of holding a
county celebration in Manzanola.
Not only were the committees well
pleased with the beautiful park grounds
but they were sratifed to find tha. the
people Of our neighbor town were en-
thusiastieally bending every energy to
make the celebration success, and all
who listen to the eneoniums Of the COM
mittee will surely celebrate the Fourth in
Manzanola on the fifth.
Judge VIM. J. Kerr Of Pueblo. one Of
the most eloquent and witty speakers in
the state. will be orator Of the day-and
the rest of the "windjamming" will be
done by the bands Of Rocky Ford and
Fowler. Two ball games have been ar
ranged for, and there will be a plenty of
sport and amusement to please everyone.
SO you'd best take the committees advice
and arrange to spend the glorious Fourth
10 Manzanola.

DIES WHILE DRIVING
The End Comes Suddenly to Miss
Bertha ElIingwood.

The End Comes suddenly TO MISS
Bertha ElIingwood.
From the Tulsa (oklahoma) World Of
Wednesday. June 9. the Enterprise CLEANS
the following account of her sudden
death. news of which reached this city
last Friday and greatly startled her
aunts, Mesdames S. A. Masters and A.
B. Wallis and all who knew the family
H. E. Ellingwood, the father Of deceased,
was a former partner of F. Y. Hauek in
the hardware business here several
years ago, and he and family were quite
well known in Rocky Ford:
yesterday morning while driving from
her home to town Miss Bertha M. Elling-
wood died of heart failure. She. in COM
pany with her sister, Lucille Ellingwood,
was driving from their ranch five miles
west Of Collinsvllle, to the town to
meet her father H. E. Ellingwood. who
had been to Tulsa to make arrangements
about shipping some cattle. About half
of the distance had been, covered when
Miss Ellingwood asked her sister to take
the lines saying she felt faint. The sister
took the lines and Bertha laid her head
over on her sisters shoulder.
Miss Lucille then started for the nearest
farm house which was that Of Joe Her
bergsrs. Although but short distance.
life was extinct before the girl could be
gotten INTO the house. Mr.. Ellingwood
started from the city and met horse
man telling him Of the sad news. The
body was brought here yesterday after
noon to the Mckinney undertaking par
lors and the funeral will be held this af-
ternoon from the First M. E. church at
$3.50 o'clock, Rev. James W. Baker con-
Quoting the services.
A quartet Of the young people Of the
church will give some special music. In
terment will be made in Oak Lawn GEM
etery.
Miss Ellinewood was twenty years old
and came here FIVE years age from Fort
Worth. Texas. with her parents. Her
father engaged in the cattle business on
the Brown & Ellingwood ranch, one of
the largest in the state. The summers
were spent on the ranch by the family
and the winters here with the children in
school. Miss Lucille Ellingwood gradual
ed from the high school little over a
week ago and the family had Just gone
out to the ranch few days ago to spend
the summer. Miss Bertha would have
graduated with her sister. from the high
school. but was forced to give up her
schooling because Of i'll health and during
the spring season had been with the An
derson Millinery establishment. The girls
had planned to finish the high school to-
gether and enter the University Of Chiea-
60 this fall. which plan will be carried
out by Miss Lucille alone.
Miss Ellingwood was prominently iden-
tilted with the church work Of the First
NJ. E. church, teaching a class in the
Sunday school and being a most faithful
worker in the League.
In church work as every where else she
gave Of her best efforts unselfishly and
her life was an exemplary one.
She was loved BY all because Of her
true goodness and her thoughtfulness and
consideration Of others. The bereaved
family. which consists of the father.
mother. daughter Lucille. and son Hiram
have the deepest sympathy Of many
friends.
