Car In Ditch,

Mrs. J. X. Glover, her daughter and
two sons were returning from drive
on the May Valley road last Monday
evening and reached the bridge across
the May Valley drainage ditch about
s o'clock. The lights on their Buick
went out just as they reached the
bridge which makes bad turn in
crossing the road. Paul, who was driv-
ing failed to see the turn and crash
ed through the railing and plunged
fifteen feet to the bottom of the ditch.
The entire hood of the alto buried in
the. soft mud and this probably broke
the shock of the fall as the car was
travelling quite slow at the time. For
tunately no one in the car was injur
ed at all although several were thrown
clear out of the car Even the car
itself was little injured in spite of its
big drop. not even the wind shield be
ing broken. The car could not be tax
en- out that night so the family was
taken home by another car. 1t wa

under the circumstances was no worse

SPRINGFIELD CARNIVAL
Lamar Sends Down Large Crowd
for the Opening Day of the
Business Mems Carnival.

The Business Mems Carnival at
Springfield last Friday and Saturday
was attended by large crowd of our
citizens. The opening day, Friday,
was Lamar day and was the one at
tended by most of our citizens. The
Rotary and Lions clubs were repre-
sented by almost the unanimous mem
bership and there was a long list of
cars besides.
The fine crops raised this year com
bined with the liberal prizes offered
by the Springfield business men
brought out some very fine displays
of the county's products for this the
banner agricultural year in the coun-
ty's history. The various committees
had made ample arrangements for the
entertainment of all visitors and the
fine program of sports was well man
aged.
The ball game between n picked
team from all sections of Baca county
and the Lamar league team was close
anu interesting anu was Anyway
game until in the seventh when with
the bases all filled Flem Hover lean
ed up against one of Rippey's fast
balls and lost it far into the crowd
cleaning up the bases and netting four
runs, just the margin by which La
mar won. The final score was to 4.
The county displays this year show
wheat, corn, oats, maize, barley, broom
corn, melons and small fruits of all
kinds that are hard to beat anywhere.
All visitors who had not been in the
county before this year were greatly
surprised at the wonderful showing
made by the exhibits, and the evidences
of p p-osperity in the county.
