The Dseparatev Vacation


This season has showed me-" said
seaside hotel man, that it is be.
coming more and more popular for
husbands and wives to take separate
vacations.
The argument is that a complete
change is needed-that husband
and wife, together, bore one another
and prevent one another from max.
ing new friends.
That sounds very fine, no doubt:
but my hotel experience proves that
the husbands and wives who take sep.
arate vacations separate altogether
In year or so.

Gave Him IA Bouquet.

The Ness city News has this hand
some bouquet for a former Abilene
lite who has been transferred to the
pastorate of the Methodist church at
Peabody: mo man has left Ness
City in many years who has been fol-
lowed by keener or more general re-
gret than will make the departure this
week of Rev. oliver Morton KeVe'
who for the past four years has been
pastor Of the Methodist church in
this city. Not SO much because he
severed his connection with that reli-
gious organization, although he Will
be missed there in no small mea-
sure. 1t is true that he had accom-
plished his work In that respect, and
there was little left for him to do
as a pastor. When he came here, 1t
was to a church rather weak In MEM
bersbip, with warning and descendant
factions, and a property pretty much
run down at the heel" Four years
steady work and improvement has
changed these conditions. and today
the Methodist church of Ness City
may be said to be a model In many
ways. II has gathered in about all
the available membership within Its
territory; It has q most flourishing
Sunday school; Its church building
is in excellent repair, and a new par
sonage has Just been fairly warmed;
in a financial way It seems to be on
"easy street" His church formed no
boundary line for his efforts to do
good, nor of his friendships among
men, but when he left Its door and
mingled with the public he left his
shop behind and was simply a good
live citizen. He was a "jolly good
fellow" without cant or hypocrisy,
but his conduct was as straight as
lire at all times, and his mingllng on
a level with the people, never brought
upon a religion that fitted
week days as well as sundsys."

COST OF OILED ROADS.
They Can be Built at a Small Ex-

A few days ago we called attention
to the advantage Of oiled roads Shaw
nee county is about to try the plan.
Oil at 2.79 cents a gallon is to be
uped. The board made trip 10 Kan
sas City and Jackson county, Mis-
souri,, this week to make arcang5'
rents for oil and inspect the oiled
roads there. Jackson county Is IA
nous for It's rock and macadam roads.
On these and on the boulevacdS OF
the city, oil t; used with great sue"
cess both to shed water and lay the
dust. There is very little dit road
oiled in th6t neighborhood SO the
commissions could not judge we'll
Whether 1t Guild be successful
According to figures submitted to
the Shawnee officers, 5000 gallons OF
oil are required for the olling OF ore
mile of rock or macadam road. The
cost for mile would then be $SS.7O.
An oil tank of $50 gallons capacity
with a sprinkler attached, as submit
ted by the agent today. would cost
$3.50. The commissioners discovered
in Kansas City however, that the
sprinkler attachment supplied at $3.50
can be supplanted by tin trough
with holes 1t in for 81, leaving the
price of a first class tank, 1920.
But even that may be evaded by
the purchase Of second hand oil
wagon for $50. Where the oil can
be distributed along at railroad points
the matter would be much simpler
and the board is undaunted as yet.
The crude oil will be shipped from
refinery close to Kansas City

ASKED ATTORNEY GENERAL
NOT TO INTERFERE.
Mayor and City Attorney Don't Want
Matters Settled.

Mayor Rice and City Attorney
Crawford returned from Topeka
where they went to discuss with the
attorney general concerning the COM
mission election. They asked him
not to interfere and not to allow
any one to test the matter in the
name of the state. 1t is not exactly
clear why the administration is I'M
willing to have the legality of the
matter settled but such is its atti-
tude. 1t is probable that the attor-
ney general will not act in the matter
as it was represented to him that 1t
was merely town row. Business
men generally feel that the fair
course would be to ask that the legal
ity of the action of the city be settled
but the mayor seems greatly opposed
to it and probably the town will have
to take its medicine and some day
in the future pay the penalty.
