Sanford News Roundup Highlights Local Skating and School Events
The Sanford area reports a busy week with eight hundred pounds of dressed poultry shipped to Alamosa and Creede, a skating party on the river, and the Sanford basketball team called nonest. Schools adjourn for a ten day holiday and will reopen January 4, 1909. Local residents, colonists from Iowa and Kansas, and mining plans in New Mexico are noted, along with theater performances, Christmas charity appeals, missionary visit, and local social events.
