A Large Crowd Enjoys the Excel
lent Program Rendered
GOOD RESULTS DURING THE TERM
Work has Been systematically Arranged
and Well Carried Out

On Friday evening, April 1st,
the public schools of La Luz had
their closing exercises. The af-
ternoon was spent in outline and
black board reviews Of work done
during the term of school. The
work had been so Systematically
planned that if either or both of
the teachers had been absent
the pupils would have been able
to go through the work in per-
feet order. Every pupil did his
or her part we'll.
In the evening the house was
crowded with patrons and Wis
itOrs.
First came Miss Murphy's pri-
mary pupils, whose recitations
reflected great credit upon both
the teacher and pupils. This
was followed by the intermedi
ate and grammar school pupils
Of j. NJ. Helms room.
We would like to make special
mention of the meritorious eff.
forts of each pupil, but space
forbids.
Chalmers Fl. Bowers had been
selected by the class of Nine
teen Hundred Ten" to deliver
the valedictory address which he
did in very appropriate manner,
briefly reviewing the history of
education, enumerating t h e
grand possibilities of the educat-
ed man, and drawing a beautiful
picture of a bright and happy
future for each member of the
class.
Then followed the address of
the county superintendent Lacy
Simms. He said in part: This
is the greatest event in the his
tory of La Luz schools. 1t is an
event for which you have Just
cause to feel proud-proud of
your children; proud of your
teachers who are not only so
thoroughly capable of instruct
ing your children, but, teachers
who know how to create an edu-
cational interest in your village.

Lynch and Millikin now own the
Properties
THE TEXAS" AND THE FAMOUS"
Shipments Of Ore may Begin by the FIRST
of May

w. R. Lynch has sold a part
interest in his mining claims to
K. B. MilIikin, of Weatherford.
and under this partnership ar
rangement, will rapidly carry
forward the development work.
The claims are located on the
north and south sides of Ca bellero
Canon, and lie ten to twelve
miles distant from Alamogordo,
almost due east. Many assays
have already been made, which
would seem to indicate that the
properties can he very profita bly,
worked. The lowest assay show
ed II per cent copper. while the
highest ran AZ per cent copper,
43 per cent lead, 7 to u ounces
Of silver and 81 80 in gold. The
assays have been made in Den
yer, Dallas and Ell Paso. The
properties have been inspected
by G. H. MilIikin, who is with a
big London concern which owns
and operates extensive proper
ties in the Parral, Mexico, dis
trict.
One fact which relieves the
venture of all rese blance to a
wild cat" scheme is that 10 eff
fort has been made to organize a
company aud sell stock. The men
who own the claims are spend
ing their own money in the pro-
specting and development work.
Cabins are being erected on the
claims for the accommodation of
the force of men which will be
employed. Three practical, ex-
perienced miners are now at
work on the claims. Figures
are being made on roads leading
both to Ell Vale and Alamogordo,
and the more practicable route
Of the two will be used.
Troy Brown has a number of
claims lying adjacent to these
two. The development work be-
ing carried forward by Messrs.
Lynch and Millikin will make
Mr.. Browns claims all the more
valuable. 1t is expected that
shipments of ore will be com.
menced by May l.

With Other Organizations and
Incorporated
70 CREATE A NEW CIVIC LEAGUE
Review and Appreciation of the Work
of the Old Organization

The Alamogordo Cemetery
Association, which will be one of
the powerful factors in the new
civic league, has overcome great
obstacles, and accomplished a
vast deal, for which full credit
never has been given. That
credit has not been given is per-
haps not due 50 much to the fact
that people are not interested.
as that the facts never have been
presented for their consideration.
In order that the people may
know, and then be able to ap-
preciate, THE News publishes
this sketch Of the organization
and its work.
The association was organized
on February s, 1908, for the
purpose Of improving the condi-
tions in Alamogordo cemetery.
which. up to that time, had been
expected to take care of itself.
Twenty ladies constituted the
charter membership. From time
to time, some of the charter
members have dropped out, eth.
er through tiring Of the work, or
removal. Others, however. have
stepped in TO fill the vacancies.
The first work in improving
cemetery conditions was on Ar
Dor Day, March y, 1908. All
the people Of the town were in
rited to participate in the work.
Judge Mann aud Col. Edison
took an active part and made
appropriate talks. School child
rem were present and sang in
spring songs; lunch and coffee
we're served.
Valuable work was done that
day, and altogether the begin-
ming was auspicious. From that
day the ladies of the association
have carried the work steadily
forward. And the task has not
been an easy one. 1t has been
necessary for the association to
raise all of the funds used in the
improvement, betterment and
of the cemetery.
The Alamogordo news. (Alamogordo, N.M.) 1899-1912, 1910-04-07

Other nominations for clerk
were then made. Judge Bush
nominated Guthrie Smith, who
declined for business reasons. J..
K. Kerr nominated j. d. Glenn
ents, who declined on the ground
that he might be absent from
town great part Of the time.
N. FL. Herbert nominated J. r.
Kerr, who also declined. Judge
Alf Hunter was then nominated.
and before he could decline,
Judge Sherry stepped to the
stand and put the motion to a
vote. Motion was carried un-
animously. Judge Bush, nonin-
ated by Judge Sherry for the
office of attorney, was elected by
acclamatiOn.
q. E. Mitchell, S. NJ. Parker
and r. B. Armstrong were then
nominated for treasurer. There
was no end of discussion by
various mem bers, as to whether
all three candidates should be
placed on the ticket, or only
the one receiving the highest
number of votes of the house.
1t was finally decided to select
ono from the three. When it was
decided to ballot separately for
the candidates for the several
Offices, The News man was COM

In The Saturday Evening Post
Sales Contest
STANDS FIFTH IN BIGGER CONTEST
For First Prize of an Automobile or
$3.50 in Cash

Max Ogden, only six years of
age. but not afraid of work, has
made good in an undertaking
which might have been too much
for an older boy who had less
pluck and energy.
He has just received notice
from the Curtis Publishing Co.,
publisher of the Saturday Even
ing Post and the Ladies' Home
journal, that he has been awarded
the first prize in his class. The
prize is a Shetland pony, cart
and harness, or 800 IN cash.
The company prefers that he ac.
cept the pony, etc, though that
costs the company more but the
additional advertising more than
conpensates for the additional
expense. The Shetland pony
costs $50, in Illinois, and the
cost Of the cart and prepayment
Of transportation charges. will
make the total cost more than
5000
Then Max receives an addition
al cash prize of $50, because his
sale, of the Ladies' Home jour
mails have been half as great a.
his average weekly sales Of the
Saturday Evening Post. Since
he began this work OH October /,
be has saved $53, which, with
this cash prize, increases his col
lege fund to Sl03.
In addition to this contest
which has just been closed, he
j, entered in an endurance con-
test Of II months, which will
close on August |. In spite of
the fact that he did not take up
the work until October |, his
hard work has put him in fifth
place in his class. In the present
contest he has the same chance
70 win as in the contest just
closed. There will be Is prizes
awarded, ranging from 1850 to
80. Continuing at his present
rate Of sales, he has an excellent
chance TO earn the first prize.
The opening of the High Rolls
and Cloudcroft resorts will sub
'tantially increase his sales.
