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 FIF.EMEN BENEFIT AT -EMPIRE THEATRE The benefit show, given under the auspices of the Amherst Volunteer Kite department at the Kinplre theatre i'iiits this evening and will be repeat ni tomorrow evening.

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 fog the hull for three downs uftd then | punting,and then the other doing like■ Wise.

PROFESSIONAL TEAM BEATS CLEVELANDERS Th" Amherst Professional football team went on a nimplige Sunday itf- . moon wVien they defeated the Eclair fontlialI team of Cleveland by a score of 2S to 0 on the South Amherst stadium. Amherst's lineup waa changed somewhat for Sunday's game. Ludwlg was Shifted to end. placing llollis in the hack Held. Hubble and Schweda were new men on the line. This lineup worked satisfactorily and Manager Bailey Is or the opinion that practically the same lineup will meet the Met ropeteo of I.oraln next Sunday. Vuilicrsi started out strong tn the Hint quarter, scoring two touchdowns. \f ei- lhe first touchdown Amherst kicked 10 Cleveland which gave them possession of the bell for the first time. They were unable to mako any gains through the Amherst line and started On the aerial route. This, how- ev, r. did not Improve matters any as Amherst's hack field were on the Job. The second quarter wi g the scene of two more loin hdowns, made by brilliant plays. The second half saw Amherst's utilities In the lineup. The new players Started out strong but were unable to ?i ore on account of fumbles. In the laM quarter the Cleveland outfit got their forward passes In working order and threatened to score. Not having the necessary push to put the ball over the game ended with the Cleveland outfit held scoreless. Lineup and summary: Eclair—0 Pos. Amherst—28 Cole L. E. Went J. Kunally L. T.

After leaving the petrified forests we struck out tor Grand Canyon. I won't try to describe the canyon as It is impossible. Vnu have to see it to realise the first part of the grandeur. After leaving the canyon we crossed the California line ut Topok, across a I.ins iron bridge over the Colorado river into sunny California. We drove 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 down grude, which ia twenty-flve miles from San Bernardino. No gas, no spurk, just brakes, on the finest ot pavements. Went Into camp aud next morning started to look for rooms, which were hard lo find, such as we wanted. Finally found a cottage at S34 Norton avenue, which we will keep fur a mouth und then move on to some other place.

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
