EXCURSION PROVES
 GREAT SUCCESS AND
 EVERYONE IS HAPPY
Glen Bartlett's Self Conducted Ex cursion to Whitehorse is De- clared to Be Great
 Success

Glen Bartlett and his party of 15 excursionists returned from White horse on the Alma at three o'clock this morning. The excursion was a success in every respct. There were no accidents and the weather was all that could be desired. The people of Skagway and Whitehorse did everything in their power to make the visitors at home and they fully sustained theirreputation for open-handed hospitality.
 The main attraction at Whitehorse was the baseball tournament in the afternoon. Douglas defeated a Whitehorse-Skagw combination by a score of II to in the first game but dropped the second contest to the soldiers from Fort Seward tt D.
 Many of the excursionists returned to Skagway on the early evening train. the others stayed over for the dance and left the next morning Several went fishing in the Yukor and Miles Canyon and other nearby points of interest were visited. Sixty soldiers from Fort Seward boarded the Alma at Haines ant helped a great deal to liven ul things.
 Everything connected with the ex cursion was handled in first-clas chano and thosp who made the tril expressed themselves we'll satisfied with the arrangements made fo their comfort and entertainment b. Mr. Bartlett. George Burford acted as ships steward and kept the cof fee pot boiling constantly.

FORT SEWARD IS WINNER

l Douglas had no trouble winning the first ball game from a tean made up of both Skagway and White horse players by score of Il to 0 There were few feature plays. The game was scheduled for nine innings but was stopped for humanitarian reasons in the seventh. m
 The score: R. H. E Douglas ........ o 5 240 x-11 ' W'horse- -Skag. 0 0 0 Q OO0 co 4 | Botteries: Henning, Synnes ant Raines; Steffens and Rapuzzi. Strike outs: Henning 2, Synnes 13, Stef | fens 9.
 The Fort Seward soldiers spilled the betting dope in the second game by taking Douglas into camp to the tune of to g. It was hard-fough1 contest all the way, but the troopers got most of the breaks and nosed ou winners of the s10O purse. The boys from Gastineau Channel were forced l to be content with second money $50
 Douglas scored the first run oi the game in the fourth inning or two-baggers by Raines and Grund Ter. The soldiers tallied once in theil half of this inning when Carlow sin gled to center, stole second, advanced to third on Synnes' balk and came home on Shatz's hit to left.
 Fort Seward scored twice in the fifth inning. Gentry struck out. Hutchinson reached first or Cough lin's low throw and took second when Synnes let McCarrpll's ground CT dribble through him. Both ad vanced on passed ball by Raines, who was playing with an injured hand. Hutchinson scored when Raines dropped Coughlin's peg from short. NcCarroll scored on Shatz's long sacrifice to center field.
 Stalking a desperate seventh inning rally the Douglas boys came within an ace of tying and probably winning the game. This was the hnal inning. Henning batting for Oliver flied to left. Grundler singled to right and stole second. Martini struck out. Garn reached first base on an infield error. Pitcher Bates, who rubbed it into his victims by wearing his sweater all through the game took no chance on Synnes duplicating his home run of the previous contest and gave him four balls. While Bates had his back turned to the plate and arguing some point of base. ball law with Umpire Watts Grundler made clean steal of home, mak- ing the score 3-2 Bates was weakening fast and walked Liebe. Then with the bases full and only one run needed to sew up the score. Bob Coughlin smashed a line drive at mile a minute into the right fislders1 hands. and the agony was over. II was a stirring finish. Tough luck, only seven innings were played.

CONGESTION OF WHEAT
SEEMS PROBABLE

Grain has been coming into Clovis
at licely rate for the past few
weeks, in fact it is coming in so fast
that the Clovis Mill and Elevator
Company is having some difficulty in
taking care Of it at times. 1t seems
like it is absolutely impossible for the
wheat to get out of Galveston now
as fast as it gets to the port and this
is causing export grain shipments to
be held up, and too, there is a car
shortage that makes it pretty near
impossible for the elevators over the
country to get cars as fast as they
need them. Lester Stone, manager
Of the Clovis Mill and Elevator Co.
says Clovis has been more fortunate
in getting cars than many other
towns and that the local mill has not
suffered near as much from this cause
as many towns in this section. The
whole trouble is the nation has raised
the greatest wheat crop in its his
tory, and in former years much of
the grain has been scored and mar
keted gradually, whereas this year
it has all been dumped on the market
just as fast as the farmers could haul
it in.

$3.50 PER YEAR
STILL AFTER THE FAIR

A meeting was held last Friday
evening to decide whether the fair
would be held this fall. Everyone
has been SO busy that it has been al
most impossible for any of the solic-
iting work to be done on the matter
Of getting the stock subscribed. A
list was passed around among the
business men with the result that
liberal subscription of stock was Sc
cured but as yet no work has been
done in the country. Will H. Patti
son, president Of the Fair Association
has now appointed some committees
to work among the farmers as well
as others and see what cooperation
can be secured. One thing is certain
whatever is done toward a fair
must be done quick.

To BUILD A PHONE
LINE TO GRADY

Realizing that it is very vital to the
welfare Of Clovis as well as the farn-
ers north of town to have a phone
line running to Claude and Grady,
Lester Stone and f. Peterson took it
on themselves this week to solicit
stock subscriptions for the forming
of company and building the line.
Speaking of the project Mr.. Stone
said: ~ do not hardly see how the
people can fail to grasp the opportun-
ity chat is now presented to get this
phone line built north. 1t will mean
much to the farmer as well as the
business men of Clovis. We had
some very liberal responses in the
matter of subscriptions but not near
enough to build the line up to this
time. figure that it will take about
$4,000 to build the proper kind of
line to Grady"

CLOVIS SCHOOL NOTES

About ten sections Of land north.
west Of the city were annexed to dis
trict one last week. The school truck
which made trips east last year will
be used to carry the children from
this territory to our schools. A big
forty passenger car has been pur-
chased to bring in the children from
the territory east Of the original dis
trict. During the past year district
number one has been increased from
nineteen square miles to ffty-three
square miles, and more are expected
to petition for annexation.
The kindergarten is rapidly filling
to maximum, but there is room vet
for a number. Be sure to call in at
once If 1t is your intention to send
your child to kindergarten.
All the teachers are to arrive Sat
urday and Sunday. Those having
boarding and rooming places will not
forget to call the superintendent.
There are no changes in books this
year as some have reported. Refer
to the recent Published list in the
Journal for verifcation.
Institute begins Monday evening,
September LIST. All Clovis teachers
will be present at that time.
Children not yet sixteen years of
age will not forget the new law.
Some will have to grow faster than
ever to reach the maximum age be-
fore school opens. We have had chill
dren grow two years in one to reach
the maximum of fourteen, which was
the law last year.
The llew law requiring vaccination
is to be rigidly enforced according to
advice received from the state de-

WHAT CAN A WOMAN DO?

She can come to decision without
the slightest trouble of reasoning on
it; and no sane man can do that
Six of them can talk at once and
get along first rate, and no two men
can do that.
She can safely stick fifty pins in
her dress while he is getting one
under his thumb nail.
She is as cool as a cucumber in
half dozen tight dresses and skirts
while a man will fret and fume and
growl in one loose shirt.
She can talk as sweet as peaches
and cream to the woman she hates
while two men would he punching
each others head before they had ex-
changed ten words.
She can go to church and after
wards tell you what every woman had
on, and in some rare instances can
give you some faint idea what the
text was.
She can walk half the night with
colicky infant in her arms without
once expressing the desire Of murder
ing the infant.
She can--but what's the use? A
woman can do anything and every
thing and do it well.
She can do more in a minute than
a man can do in an hour and do it
better.
She can drive a man crazy for
twenty-four hours and then bring
him to paradise in two seconds by
simply tickling him under the chin
and there does not live the mortal son
of Adams misery who can do il.

miles southeast of Clovis had pub
lie sale Tuesday of this week. Mr..
Carnahan advertised his sale we'll and
was rewarded for his exorts by having
a good crowd and everything bring

little extra money on the advertise
ment of public sale these days. 1t

a great deal more than pay for the
amount the additional advertising
costs.

PROFITABLE INVESTMENTS

ACTIVITY IN REAL ESTATE

/ AT no time in the history of the
County has real estate been as active
,as now Farm values have steadily
increased during the past few months
and there have been quite a few sales
with good demand for Curry Coun-
ty land.
City real estate has been selling,
too, at prices people did not dream
of several years ago. The continued
shortage Of residence property has
made home just like ready money
when the owner feels like putting it
on the market at anything like rea-
sonable price.
