On Friday evening about 7 o'clock,
while Harold Walker was returning
from Toledo with a party of relatives
In his automobile, ho discovered an
other machine coming from Maumeo,
which was making such an unsteady
course that ho feared tho driver
might run Into his machine. Mr.
Walker drovo as close to the street
car track as was safe in order to give
tho other auto plenty of room to pass,
but did not daro attempt to cross tho
track as ho saw a car approaching,
and thus with danger staring at him
from both sides of the road ho
stopped his machine and attempted
to run back, but before he could do
so tho approaching auto crashed
Into his machine and caused much
damage.
Besides wrecking the car, which
proved to be a small one, and also
damaging Mr. Walker's car, Mrs.
Charles Muir, who was riding in tho
Walker auto, was thrown forward in
such manner as to Injure her kneo by
breaking tho kneo cap. She was
brought to Perrysburg for medical
treatment, and on Monday was oper
ated on by Drs. Bowers, with tho
hope of restoring tho usefulness of
tho Injured member. She Is seriously
Injured and may possibly never fully
recover, although everything that
surgical skill can render has been
done.
The occupants of tho offending ma
chine wero B. C. Ladd and a Mr.
Zimmerman of Toledo. Both men
wero detained in Maumeo until tho

Now Mexico, with her ancient In
dian peoples, her relics of tho Aztec
and Spanish civilizations and tho pre
historic cavo dwellers, Is a country of
lntenso interest to students and 'to
tourists generally. There Is tho great
Navajo Indian reservation and tho
quaint puoblo villages of Isleta, Cia,
Jcmez, San Ildcfonso, Cochlta and
many others.
Tho Pueblos aro one of tho most
romarkablo and fascinating peoples
of thtf world. On all sides are ruins
and relics of the days of the Spanish
conquistadores, and tho city of Al
buquerque Is tho main supply point
for the Indian handiwork, their mar
velous blankets, silver work, Pueblo
pottery and so forth, and It Is to this
city that artists fropi all over the
world come en route to tho. interior to
study the remains of past civiliza
tions, two extinct, and one, that of
the Pueblos, maintained unchanged
for centuries but soon to disappear.
As our train stopped near a Pueblo
village scores of Indians, young and
old, came to the coaches and offered
their work for sale, and many dol
lars' worth of pottery and other sou
venirs were purchased. Their pot
tery is remarkable for its beauty of
artistic design and finish, and was
very eagerly sought by the tourists.
Albuquerque boasts of having the
300 year old church of San Flllpe de
Neri.
The Pueblo villages are of much
interest, and remind the observe! of
ancient cities of the old world, which
I havo seen only by Illustrations.
They aro built on the crests of im
mense rocks the same as they did in
centuries past, evidently for the pur
pose of being better enabled to es

mode of dress and communal govern

Tho Wolverine fool ball 'team of
Toledo "skinned" the Perrysburg
team by a score of 9 to 0. This is the
way they did it: By all legality as to
rules, the first 7 points that were
scored by Toledo should bo wiped out,
becauso tho points wero mado by an
illegal forward pass. It was very
plain to be seen by everybody there
that understood foot ball. The other
two points should not have been al
lowed as tho Perrysburg man was
forced over his own goal line by To
ledo men. This by rules black and
white counts nothing. It is hoped
that In tho futuro all vital plays will
bo carefully watched, as those are
tho dangerous parts of tho scoring

How pleased is the tourist to meet
some one while traveling who may
know another person with whom both
are acquainted "back home." It was
a pleasure to meet two fellow passen
gers while traveling through New
Mexico who seemed pleased to hear
from Ohio. They wero Mr. and Mrs.
William Knapp Thomas, formerly"of
Toledo but who now reside "some
where" on a three thousand acre
ranch about 15 miles south of Santo
Fe. Mr. Thomas and his father went
west from Toledo about the time
Coleman Keeler left this" locality and
took a party of Ohio men down Into
New Mexico near Socorro promising
fortunes for each of them, which
none of them ever heard of after
reaching tho "promised land." Tho
elder Thomas sunk about 40,000
mazumas in a smelter plant which is
still sunk, tho principal smelting of
which was done to Mr. Thomas' ?40,

of this tract of land and commenced
raising sheep. Later a spring of cool
delicious water was discovered and
by constructing a reservoir around it
they have plenty of water for Irriga

They havo recently added a large
number of cows and by the aid of an
Ice plant they aro now sending 100
gallons of Ice cream per week to

Hiram, 0., Sept. 30, 1912.
Dear Mr. Blito: I really feel
guilty fqr not having written you be
fore this but tho past two weeks
have been exceedingly busy and havo
not granted any spare moments for
me.
Life at Hiram has been one grand
time (Including study). TheY. M.
C. A. and Y. W. C. A. here make a
special effort to have tho students
foci at home and not get "home
sick" and there have been very few
cases so far (but not ME, however).
On tho evening of September 19
the Y. M. C. A. held a reception for
the new students at the Y. M. C. A.
building. This has always been
known as the "Stag," and was one
glorious time from beginning to end.
Several impromptu speeches by the
faculty and the students, inter
spersed with music and readings,
constituted the program, which
closed with refreshments. On Sep
tember 18 the Y. W. C. A. enter
tained for the young ladies, which
was the same as the Y. M. C A. so
far as I know, for I did not attend
and therefore cannot explain it.
Tho big event of the week, how
ever, was the "joint" reception of
tho Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A.
This was where the bashful (?) fel
lows met all the fair and pretty
girls. Where you were introduced
to hundreds and hundreds, and Io,
the next morning (and sometimes
the next moment) you -were unable
to recall the name of the one you
had met.
The really big event of the year at
Hiram Is tho annual flag rush be
tween the Freshman and Sophomore
classes. The Sophomore class draw
up the rules and make the challenge
to the Freshmen and after the fac
ulty have approved of everything tho
Sophs select a fresh, slippery pole
and "pjant" it in the. campus with
iiieir colors living 36 feet high. Tho
object Is for the Freshmen to re
move the Sophs' flag and put their
own up. No man is allowed the use
of climbers or other mechanical
means but just plain hand over hand
climbing.

Early on the' morning of Septem
ber -21 the event took place. The
Freshmen were summoned by tho
sound of the college bell and when
all details were explained they gath
ered on tho campus prepared for thu
"light" and attack on the Sophs, who
were guarding "their" pole.
At the crack cf the pistol the
Freshmen rushed in and each
grabbed a Soph and quickly threw
him to the ground and proceeded to
hold him there. When all were held,
one of the Freshmen attempted to
climb the pole but was unable to
reach the top and was forced to
descend. After several other at
tempts one man succeeded In reach
ing the top and, holding on by his
feet and legp, ho ripped tho Sophs'
colors down and nailed up the brown
and whito of the class of 191G.
All this was accomplished within
about 15 minutes but the hard part
now comes as the Sophs must be
kept away from the polo (or replac
ing their own colors) for tho space
of one hour and a half, Here tho
fun cam'e in for the onlookers in
watching three or four Froshmen
sitting on a Soph whiio tho latter
was trying to gain his freedom so
that ho might climb the pole ami re
place his colors. While all this was
going on the girls of tho two 'classes

president and Mrs. Franqes Ensign
Fuller, vice president at large. The
other" state officers were re-elected.
In the evening there was a banquet
in the parlors of the 'church, given
by the Y. P. B., with the state offi
cers as their guests of honor. After
this a grand diamond medal contest
was held.
Pridav was civen over to unfin

delegates departed for homo Friday
evening feeling that it had been a
great privilege to be among the sev

-IN THE EFFETE EAST.
Our old friend, Ed. L. Blue, of tho
Perrysburg .Tournah recently took a
trip to the great northwest and
boundless west. He is giving his
readers some mighty Interesting de
scriptive tales as a result of his trav
els. For instance, in his last paper
he tells about seeing a bow-legged
squaw in Death Valley, along with
other interesting sights. And that's
where tho effete east has it on tho
building completed by the first of
December.
The work thus far on the mauso
leum gives evidence that the com
pleted building will bo far more beau
tiful than the illustration shows and
the work' being done is of the highest
class.
The company desires to havo peo
ple of this locality call and see the
building and make a thorough in
spection of Its many features of excel
lence and advancement.
There Is no question but that thte
mausoleum i3 of the very highest typo
of building for the purpose of above-
ground Interment, being constructed
on scientific principles which insuro
perfect desslcatlon and a certainty
that the remains of the loved ones
who havo passed away will be forever
guarded and safe from removal.
To many people earth burial seems
very terrible and horrifying, but
when It is considered that there is
now a method of disposition of the
body after death that Insures safety
from any future Interference, tho
plan seems to bo meeting with gen
oral approval and adoption in all lo
calities favored with a modern mau
soleum, and Perrysburg can point
with pride to tho one now building
