a scholar of unusual appearance and

One day a backward student called
to explain his remissness and to assure
the professor that he did love his

MRS. HINES HURT
IN AUTO ACCIDENT

Mrs. J. L. Hines was painfully in
jured Monday afternoon in an auto
mobile accident between Clovis and
Texico.
In the Ford car when the accident
happened We're Mr.. and Mrs. Hines,
their daughter, Miss Grace Hines, and
Mrs. ], W. Lindquist, and they were
enroute from Texico to Clovis. 1t
seems that the car was running along
nicely when suddenly something went
wrong with the steering gear with
the result that the car turned over.
All the occupants were more or less
shaken up, but Mrs. Hines was the
only one whose injuries were of any
consequence. She was badly bruised
and cut about the head and was
brought to the Antlers Hotel in Clo-
Wis and medical attention summoned.
Mrs. Hines has been getting along
nicely since the accident and while
apparently out of danger will not be
able to return home for several days.

Much has been written and said
about the War and the part OF the
American Soldier in It, but il has re-
NAMED for d. c. Maclver one of
Arizona's most prominent mining
men, who volunteered his services as
an entertainer for the Boys Over
There, to give one of the most inter-
esting recitals Of all
For twenty years he was on the
american Circuit as professional
Magician and Humorist, real mirth
maker, following which he had settled
down into the mining game in Arlz-
ona, when the call came for men to
entertain and make the American
Soldier laugh and forget his troubles
in France. SO while copper was high
he closed his mine and went with the
Boys, and for nine months he toured
the camps in England, France and
Germany, as organizer and manager
of the 3M Unit of Entertainers, one
of the best units in the work, the
first unit to 90 into Germany with
the American Army when 1t crossed
over as an army Of occupation.
Mr.. MacIver will be in Clovis next
Sunday, June 18th, 1919, and at $3.50
D. M, will give one of his inimitable
entertainments at the Lyceum Thea
tire, and show the people of Clovis
Just how he made the Doughboy laugh
while the crash Of war was on, with
the shells flying over, both going and
coming, together with recital of his
experiences in, and observations OF,
the War zone, and the American
Soldier in Action.
He was two months with the Com
bat Divisions of the American Army
on the front lines, giving entertain
ments under continuous shell hre,
under all sorts Of trying conditions,
and his experience over there was q
most unusual one, with an opportun-
ity for observations second to but
few. His recital is full of interest
akd thrills. Everyone in Clovis has
rare opportunity, in Mr. Maclver's
visit, to see and hear first hand.

DRILLING OPERATIONS
NEAR TUCUMCARI

Lester Stone and Cash Ramey
made a business trip to Tucumcari
Tuesday and Wednesday and while
there they visited the location of the
deep test well that will be put down
about eight miles south of Tucum-
carl. They say that much material is
now on the ground for the commence
ment of this well and those behind
the movement certainly mean busi-
ness. They have graded road from
Tucumcari out to the site for the
well and several cars of big casing
and an enormous well machine is on
the ground ready to commence work
soon. Mr.. Ramey and Mr.. Stone say
that these fellows may not strike oil
but they certainly are going after it.

: NO ACCIDENT WEEK"
JUNE z To q

Railroads under Federal Control,
comprising the Central Western Re-
gion, have set aside the week of June
22nd to 2Sth, inclusive, as a mo Az
cident Week"
During that week the $50, 900 rail-
road men employed in this Region
will be asked to, in every possible way
guard against injury, will be asked to
have in their makeup just q little
more of the milk of human kindness.
to be actuated by somewhat different
motives and strive for higher ideal
than beforehand it is to be hoped
will be conscientiously and whole
hcartedly striving to avoid an injury
that might bring physical suffering to
themselves or fellowworkmen or car
ry a sorrow into their homes.
Few people outside Of railroad SER
vice know of the constructive, effec-
tive Safety work being carried on
today; as evidence of its accomplish
ments be it noted that in the Central
Western Region alone, during the
first three months of 1919, there
were 30 fewer killed and 1850 fewer
injured than in the same period last
year
The Santa Fe say in their appeal
for the individual cooperation Of
their employees: "The commodity we
are trying to sell is Happiness, the
price of it is merely an effort to do
the right, the square thing; we will
take an assurance of ones good in-
tentions as the first payment, and
promise larger and more lasting div
idends than are possible from any
other investment
1t occurs to this paper that the
period set apart by the railroads as
"a No Accident Week" might proper
ly and prohtably be similarly observed
by the general public; if parents
would begin that week to keep their
I children from making a play ground
out of the public streets, if drivers of
automobiles might begin to show
some regards for the rights of others,
drive more safely and sanely, and be-
gin to show some appreciation of the
dangers lurking at public grade
crossings, etc., it would be a history
making week for the entire region.

Barry Hardware Company registered
81 of an inch and all reports show
that the fall was heavier north of

a good start with every indication
that Curry County will have the larg-
est row crop in the history of the

in such good condition that there will
