MILLS wins oYER soLANo

Quite crowd of Roy rootefs went
to Mills last Sunday and watched
Solano go down to defeat before her
rival, Mills. There was no game in
Roy and the Roy team did not have
an outside game, so they too went
to Mills and tried to get some new
pointers on the National game.
The game in the start looked like
Mills was not going to have look
in and for five straight innings Mills
chalked up big round goose egg,
and then, well some say the pitcher
went to pieces, others say Mills awoke
to her duty, we don't know which,
but anyway Mills just sent five men
across the home plate, and from the
fifth on. it was nip and tuck as to
who was to be the winners, but in an
overthrow to the home plate Mills
sent in an extra man and the game
was over and Mills had won by one
score. The final score showed 8 for
Mills and for Solano, and though
the score was little heavy, all in all,
it was a crackerjack game, and treat
to the large crowd who watched it.

DELBERT BROWN HURT

What might have been very seri-
Gus accident occurred in front Of the
R. E. Alldredge home last Sunday
afternoon when Delbert Brown, the
9-year-old son of Mayor F. S. Brown
was run over by an automobile driven
by Miss Clara Wendland. Delbert
was on the running board of Mr.. All
dredge's car and stepped off of it
and started to run across the street
and slipped and fell and Miss Wend-
land was driving just behind the All
dredge car but was unable to stop
her car until it had passed completely
over Delbert's body. Both wheels
Of the car passed over his chest and
arm and he was crushed and bruised
considerably. Immediately after the
accident he was taken to the DR. Sell
Hospital and his wounds treated by
Or. Self and later taken to hislhonieg
Just what the outcome Of his injuries
will be the Doctor is unable to deter
mine, but at this writing the Doctor
is hopeful that nothing serious will
develop from the bruises.
The accident is regretted very
much by all concerned, but it was one
of those that could not be helped and
Miss Wendland is not to blame for
the accident as she was driving very
carefully, but the distance was too
short to stop the car after he had
fallen to the ground.
Should the car have been s or 10
inches more to the side Of the road,
it would have run over his head and
killed him instantly, and we are glad
to report that the accident was not
more serious than it really was,

sPEEpING MusT sToP

It seems that repeated warning to
motorists that speeding within the
town limits must stop, is Of no avail
The marshal got busy and had two
speedsters appear before Judge Fost-
er and tell him what they knew about
speeding. Both pied guilty to break
ing the speed ordinance and paid
their fines and went home wiser. This
is only the beginning Of series of
arrests that will be made in the near
future unless the speeding stops. The
law allows IL miles an hour in town
and 5 miles per hour in the business
district and this does not mean rs
nor 40. miles in the residence district.
There surely has been plenty Of
warning given and it is now high
time to put a blank stop to the fast
driving on the new graded streets
Within The last few weeks a number
of what might have been serious ac-
cidents have been narrowly ayerted
by quick action Of the pedestrian or
the person at the wheel and which
could have been easily avoided il the
speed limit law was being adhered
to. It is a common sight to see a
car start at the Roy Trading corner
and before it is to the ball diamond
it is making a speed that is impossible
for one to tell who the driver is.
It is hoped that the recent arrests
will be warning to those who like
to make time by speeding within the
town limits and that no future ar
rests will be needed.

FOUR SISTERS

Saturday, August 21, was very
happy day for Sisters Mary Consuella
and Grace Agnes, as their number
was increased by the arrival of two
new members, Sr. Mary Josephine
and Mary Emerita, who arrived from
the mother house, st. Joseph's Col
lege, Adrian, Mich, who with the first
named Sisters will, for the present,
comprise the teaching staff of the
new st. George School, which will
open for regular session September
9th.
The Superior, Sister M, Josephine
is one of the older members of the
Adrian Province, and has been very
successfully engaged in teaching in
several schools in the states Of Illin.
ois, Ohio and Michigan, also spent
a year in the schools Of Arizona, hav-
ing had varied experience in teach
ing for period Of over twenty-five
years. She is we'll qualified 70 work
in this new field.
Sister Josephine will take charge OF
the music department Of the new
school.
Sisters M. ConsuelIa, M. Emerits
and Grace Agnes are efficient teach
ers of several years experience in
large schools of Chicago, Detroit
Royal Oak, Jackson and Adrian. All
of these Sisters have had splendid ia
cilities in Normal school work, ant
have been most successful in every
school in which they have worked
have furthermore the love and re
spect of all their many pupils anC
friends, and it was with considerable
regret that they parted.
Roy is fortunate in securing teach
ing Sisters, as there is very greaf
demand for Sisters in all eastern
schools and it was with no small sac
rifice that the Adrian House sends
the Sisters so far away.

CANYON PICNIC

About one hundred people of Roy
and vicinity went to the canyons
down on the Virgil Anderson ranch
last Sunday and spent the day in one
Of those good old-fashioned picnics,
The crowd began to gather about ten
o'clock and the morning was spent in
climbing the canyon cliffs and hav-
ing a general good time. At noon a
big dinner was served and talk about
eats, well you would have had to have
been there to get even an idea Of
what a feast was spread. After din
ncr Il was neighborhood talk for a
while and then more canyon romping
and visiting the many beautiful scenes
the canyons are noted for. Late in
the evening all started for their
homes, tired, yes little, but having
enjoyed a pleasant day.

CARD oF THANKS

In behalf of the members of st.
George Parish, hereby desire to ex-
press our grateful appreciation to
Mr.. Ogden, past editor of the S-A for
many courtesies shown us on numer-
GUS occasions in the past, especially
by so freely donating space In his
paper while our church and rectory
were in course of construction, dur
ing which time his generosity proved
of greatest assistance to US.
S-A was almost the only means of
communicating to our friends our
many needs in the past hard struggle.
In whatsoever new field of endeav-
or Mr.. Ogden may engage in the fu-
ture, our best wishes for most abund-
ant success will ever follow him.

LUJAN AND SON SELLS STORE
TOR. p. SHAYA AND COMPANY

A deal was contaminated last
Thursday and Friday which has been
under consideration for some time in
which Lujan and Son sold their store
on Chicosa avenue to Mr.. Raymond
P. Shaya and Company. The new
owners took possession Saturday
morning and opened for business the
same day.
Mr.. r. P. Shaya, the president of
the new company, comes from Albu-
querque, and is we'll known in Roy
and vicinity as he has been making
this Mesa for the past three years in
the interest of the Mutual Life In
surance company, and he has many
friends here who wish him success in
the new enterprise.
Mr.. Shaya will have connected with
him Mr.. H. c. Barrett of Espanola,
N. NJ, who will be the manager of
the new store. Mr.. Barrett has been
here the greater part of the week as
sisting in the invoicing of the store
and other matters incident to the op-
ening of the new business. He is a
very pleasing man and has made a
success in the mercantile business at
Espanola, and no doubt will make
good here. Mr.. Barrett has wife
and four sons and will move his fam
lily to Roy within the next few weeks
and will be a valued addition to our
town.
The new firm will handle com
.plete line Of groceries, dry goods, no
tions, etc. and viii be in the market
for all kinds of produce and beans.
We understand that Mr.. Shaya will
continue his connection with the Mu-
tual Life for the present, as he is sup
erintendent Of agents Of New Mex
leo, but he will move his headquarters
from Albuquerque to Roy and viii
open up an office here. He has been
looking over the whole state for a
good opening and finally decided that
Roy was the best town in the state
and we feel satisfied that he has made
good selection.

some CROPS

The Editor made a trip to the
Gladstone country last week and was
surprised to find the immense crops
in that neighborhood and on west
and south from Gladstone, the crops
are simply fine. The corn will make
from 25 to go bushels per acre and
the maize, beans, forage and other
crops are AL. This part Of the Mesa
is practically new to farming, as there
had been but little farming done up
until three years ago. Another thing
noticeable was the great amount 81
wheat being sown. This part Of the
Mesa will have 80 to 40 thousand
acres sown In wheat and we might
add, some Of the fields win be crack
cracks, as some farmers are sowing
as much as 500 to 1900 acres this
fall.
k A great amount Of this land wai
state land few years ago and was
sold by the state in large tracts 10
spectators who have in turn sold Il
to the farmers from Kansas, Okla
hOma and Texas. This land was
bought by the spectators at about
SIS to SO per acre and they have in
turn sold it in smaller tracts at from
$40 to $50 per acre, and we under
stand some Of it is now being held
at $50 per acre.
One thing in particular which we
sympathize with these farmers is the
great distance to market and the mis-
erable conditions Of the roads to mar
ket. 1t is 25 to 35 miles to Roy and
the roads over the greater amount Of
the distance are horrible and Il Is
surely up to the business men Of Roy
to get busy at once and give them a
good graded road at least TO the Col
fax county line and further II pos
sible. This matter could be easily
handled if we had a good live, wide
awake Commercial Club and the cost
would not be as great as one would
think. The army truck which could
be borrowed from the Village Dads
and two good men would fix long
stretch Of road in three or four
months, and II we could get a reason
able amount Of help from the county
and state it would be an easy matter
to make the road to Gladstone one
Of the best in the state, and II Roy
wants the thousands Of bushels Of
corn they have this fall, and the SO0,-
600 bushels of wheat they are going
to raise next year, they must get busy
and give them a decent road to bring
their products to market.

Tennessee ratified the Woman suf-

cd States, same being the 10Th

sary that the legislatures Of thirty
iix states ratify the amendment be-
fore II would become a part of the
Constitution and the suffragettes
have worked hard to get the requir-
ed number Of states, although they
have had 35 states to their credit for
several weeks, it seemed impossible
10 get the seth state to come across.
Both the republican and democratic
nominees for president worked hard
10 get the Seth state and naturally
both parties claim they will get the
women vote, but in. our opinion the

tween the two leading parties and the
1000, 900 extra votes that will be
cast In the November election will
have little to do with the result Of the

BUYS s.A. BUILDING

Frank L. Schultz and William G
johnson bought the Spanish Ameri.
can building from Irwin Ogden last
Saturday. Their first purchase in
cluded the plant only, but after con
sidering the matter more carefully
they decided to purchase the build
ing also. The Spanish American home
is 20 feet wide and 100 feet long and
fs located on an excellent lot in a
good adobe building and was com
pleted only last spring The north
wall will be connected to the Liberty
Garage adobe wall, and several 9th
ed changes will be made by the new
owners which will make ii one Of the
best print shop homes in northeast
New Mexico. We are also figuring
on establishing an electric light plant
for the building and extending the
power house on the right Of way just
back Of the building and extending
the main work room several feet
longer. AS soon as we can get our
new Intertype machine installed, and
some other machinery which we are
contemplating on purchasing in the
near future, we will have a plant and
home with but few equals and super
iors in the state.
