COMMERCIAL
CLUB Meeting.
Much Business Disposed Of SatlSfaC'
tOTiiy.
BUSY. SEASON IN sight.

the Commercial Club was held
Monday night, and it being an
open meeting, was attended by a
large number of citizens.
q. After the allowing of monthly
bills and providing for improve
ment Of the Club rooms, there
were several matters of public i'm
portance taken up.
A communicative. from manu-
featuring companJ at Blackwell,
Ok, desiring a location for a
manufacturing industry, was
read, and the Secretary was in
atructed to invite the parties to
visit Great Bend and deveIope-
ments will follow. The same ac-
tion was taken concerning letters
from parties proposing to estab-
llsh a canning factory. and also
another important industry of
which more will be stated later.
The Santa Fe depot committee
reported that Supt. Ayers had
given assurance that a new pas
senger station would be built there
by that company during the sum-
mer of 1907.
The committee also reported
that the Missouri Pacific people
had in contemplation the building
of addition to the little depot
here. The Commercial Club
has asked for a new brick station,
built on Broadway-something in
proportion to the Importance of
Barton county to that railroad.
Upon motion the city council was
requested to take that part of the
city where the present little
station house is located into the
fire limits.
The matter Of the proposed ex-
.cursion to Garden City to visit
the sugar beet factory was then
taken up DR.. II. E. Lindas ex-
planned at length what he had
learned concerning beet culture,
soil appropriateness etc., He had
given the matter considerable
study, and feels confident this
palt of the Arkansas valley is Just
as good for the culture of sugar
beets as is the upper part of the
valley where the industry is work
ing wonders. Lands that a few
years ago were offered for S. an
acre cannot now be bought for
800 an acre about Garden City.
The product of beets per acre
runs from SS5 to $50. Some
of the unirrigated land did
as we'll as that which was
irrigated; many farmers put in
pumps, with gasoline engines, and
made more money of a small tract
of land than many Barton county
. farmers make off a large wheat
farm.
S. D. Kelley. of the south side,
who visited the locality of
Garden City in November, told Of
what he had learned and observed.
After thorough discussion of
the subject, the following gentle
men were appointed to assist DR..
Lind6s in getting up the excursion
. Friday: c. V. -Brinkman, Cliff
Davis. F. L. Gunn, Will Town.
sley. Geo. Thatcher. Louis Zuta-
vern. Arthur Taylor, C. R.
Aldrich, Coe Russell. Porter
Young and o. W. Dawson.
The train will leave Great Bend
at 6:45 a. m. on the 18th. and re-
turn that evening.
The next matter taken up was
the sand road from the Arkansaw
bridge to Geo. Hart's. A large
delegation Of Southe Side farmers
were present, and various methods
of making a permanent road were
discussed. Upon motion Ira D.
Brougher Of the Commercial Club,

ture, while short pulled sleeves of the
same lace extended just little below
the Mikado sleeves of the Chantilly.
The skirt was one of the new five
gored models with pleated front and
back and circular sides.
NEW ORNAMENTS FOR THE NECK.
The old-fashioned black velvet band
has been revived for evening wear and
is at the present moment the very
height of fashion. This is worn high
up on the throat under the chin, thus
hiding the least attractive part Of the
neck and revealing the curves at the
base Of the throat. These bands are
seldom more than three-quarters of
an inch or an inch wide and are often
decorated with slides and ornaments
of diamonds, paste or rhinestones.
Often, however, the velvet band is
left perfectly plain and fastened at
the back with a handsome brooch.
For the woman who cannot afford
costly jewels this fashion will prove
most acceptable and she can rest as
sured that 1t is the very latest mode.

These soft, beautiful new shades Of
yellow are worn alike by blondes and
brunettes, by society women, young
