C. L GOOD RELATES
MOTOR TRIP THROUGH WEST
The following la a letter received recently by Mra. H. J. brown from her
uncle, C. L. Good, written upon his
arrival In California. Mr. aud Mrs.
Hood, together with Mr. and Mra. Henry Sipple, left Amherst on August .11,
for California, where Ihey will spend
the winter. They were on the road
twenty-six days.
San Bernardino, Cal.. Sept. 30, '21.
Mrs.  Angeline  Brown.
Dear Niece: I will endeavor to relate some of our wonderful experlen
■ ees on the cross-country drive. We
drove Just three thousand one hundred fifty-three mllea, including side
trips, and were on the road twenty-six
daya. We ins Id fairly good roads most
of the way through the middle states,
only in Missouri we had to lay over
one day. We were eampiiig ln,Hannl-
ba.l Just acton the Mississippi river,
on Indian Mound, and such a storm
came up. the worst I ever witnessed.
We all had to hand on to our tents
to keep them from blowing away. Our
bedding got wet and so did we, but
the girls took it good nnturedly and
sang "I Had a Good ■Home and I Left."
We stayed in thut ramp ull next day,
Which was Labor Hay,' and got our
clothe:--, and tenia dry. also the roads,
which are impassable in wet weather.
Coming .through Kansas we found a
few miles of muddy roads but got
through all right with plenty of slipping and sliding. You never saw such
stuff to slide In, worse than the' Lorain sand. We got caught In one mor#
rain storm, at hus Vegas. N. M. Mrs.
O. and 1 slept In the car that night.
We followed the National Highway
until we got to Kansas City, and there
we took the old Santa Fe trail. Most
of the way through the central aretes
Is a rolling country, which gradually
gives way to rolling prairies dotted
with numerous ranches. The scenery
Is not very Interesting until you get
u view of the mountains in Colorado.
I will have to tell you or the tun
we had trying to get a shot at the
prairie dogs. The first we saw were
in about Hutchinson, Kansas. They
look just like a little fat brown puppy,
only when they sit up they look more
like a suirrel. The first we saw, we
didn't see, for as quick aa seat they
would drop in their holes. We finally
got discouraged and quit trying to get
close up. After we landed In New
-Mexico and Arizona they wouldn't get
AMHERST HI TEAM
LOSES TO WELLINGTON
CAME    WA8    PLAYED   ON    USUAL
MUDDY    FIELD—SCORE
WA8   2   TO   0
Tiie In. nl high achool football team
dropped a game to the Wellington
High outfit ut Wel'lngton last Satur-
da\ by a 20 score, the two points being made by ineaiiR of a safety scored
by T. Neuineister.
As has been the case for the past
four years, the Wellington Held was a
tnaai of mud and wnti'r. this condition
making the game rather slow. Haiti
all day Friday and Saturday morning
put the llelil iii a hud condition, which
would have resulted lu a cancellation
hud not the Wellington team demanded the game to be played.
The Amherst outllt had hopes of a
cleaf record this season, hut hacking
against the heavy Wellington outfit on
n muddy Held shattered all hopes.
The local' grldders went Into the
game with a lot of pretended pep.
which was kept up beeuuae of the
fact that they found  Wellington's line
easy to penetrate.
The first quartet started with Wel-
llnglon kieklng to Amherst. Amherst
made several gains through the tine
but lost the ball on a rumble. Wellington took puss, sales of tbe ball in nilil-
lleld but were held there for three
downs, Which made it necessary .for
hem to punt. Amherst carried the
punt back and was held for three
dOWhSi which mude it necessary for
them to punt. During the entire llrst
period the playing was of this same
nature, neither lea in showing any
great   work.
The saco&d period found Amherat
plowing Wellington's line with great
sttcceM for several first downs, |iow-
over,  being unable to score.
Wellington came back strong In the
second half and started making gains
by means or end runs. At this time
they made three first downs* In succes

when we return.
Well, we are about to Pueblo, where
the great floor was in June, '21. We
afV camping up on a high hill, which
is called Scenic Park. As we get
nearer the west they have fine camp
grounds provided with water, lights,
and some ol them with stoves aud fuel,
shower baths and rest rooms. We
have enough cars here tonight to start
a garage, about fitly curs from all
points or the globe.
From here we went to Colorado
Springs and colled on Chas. Curtis and
family. Surely surprised them. Found
Mr. Curtis looking und reeling better
than he was.
From there we went to Manotu and
drove through the wonderful purk
called The Oarden or the Ooda, Which
surely was some wonderful sight. Hud
our pictures taken In front or Balance
Rock.    Will send one ua a sample.
Arter leaving here we went back to
Pueblo and camped at the same place.
Next morning we started Tor Trinidad,
calculating to reach Raton Pass at evening, but made good time und reached
the Pass about three o'clock. My engine waa not working well down In
the canyon-, so we decided to wait until morning beroro trying our highest
mountain, when all or a sudden It got
some different air and say, you ought
to have seen ua go up that mountain.
Nine thousand reet elevation before
we knew it. One peak is called Fisher
Peak, the highest ol tbe Baton Range.
Another la called Simpson's Rest,
where Oen. Simpson is supposed to be
buried in a grave hewn out of .-olid
rock.
Well, before we got to the top we
passed into New Mexico. Now came
the worst part ot mountain traveling,
the going down. It was awtul. You
could see clear down to the bottom,
where you hud to go. Just think or
looking down nine thousand reet and
wondering IT everything would work
' right. 1 Just shut her off und put It
iu first gear and gradually got down.
One thing, the roads over Raton Pass
are good. After we got down we decided to camp for the |lght. After
that It was all mountains and plains
aad canyons.
Between Las Vegas aud Albur-
querque we had some great roads.
They have had somo awful rains of
late which have washed out the roads
most of tbe way. I cun't say as the
bridges were washed away as there
never were uny. Drove through many
a creek bottom and out again. You
wouldn't think an auto could make
them but we got along just fine.
Now I will tell you about the desert.
-  It Is not half so' bad as  they    tell
caae had he not made the recovery.
The last quarter was very mm n the I
same us the flrat, llrst one team hold-1

After leaving the petrified forests
we struck out tor Grand Canyon. I

realise the first part of the grandeur.
After leaving the canyon we crossed
the California line ut Topok, across a

until sunset uud camped at Amboy,
about the middle or lhe desert. Hotter thun hot! Arter leaving Amboy,
ubout daybreak, we drove until about
3 p, m., when suddenly we came to a

from San Bernardino. No gas, no

morning started to look for rooms,
which were hard lo find, such as we
wanted. Finally found a cottage at
