Gov. Burke vetoed the Drug.
gist Permit Bill. which was
passed by both houses near the
close of the present session of
the Legislature, and gives as a
reason that it was unnecessary
and would tend to let down the
prohibition bars. The Governor
is evidently right, for, although
the bill might work a benefit in
some cases and the law observed,
there are some few, we are sorry
to say, who would take advan-
tage of this loophole and abuse
their privileges.

The following editorial from
Farm Implements" speaks for;
itself and is worthy of your con-
sideration. It not only applies
to the farmerb but to the merchant
and others who purchase outside
their home markets:
"The ireport'of Sears, Roshuck &

that the catalogue house business is

"The total sales for 1910 of the big
catalogue house show an increase OF

the dividends for 1910 are 2O.47 per

per cent on the preferred stock, as
compared with Is. 81 per cent on the
common stock the'previous year. The
total net earnings, after deducting the
7 per cent dividends on the preferred
stock, were S6,759,s78, out of which

Jail Contract Not Let

The Board of County Comjssion-
ers met Monday and also Tuesday
for the purpose of opening the
bids and awarding the contract
for the erection of the new Jail.
After a careful consideration, they
decided that none of the bids were
low enough and called in the con-
tractors for a conference. The
result was that they decided to
change the plans for the Jail to
make the structure less expensive,
and will again advertise for bids
on the revised plans. Architect
P. H. Weahers of Kansas City was
here working on the problem with
the commissioners. He will have
the new plans out by the first of
the month. The delay may be the
cause of some dissatisfaction, but
we believe the commissioners act
ed wisely. After all; the board of
commissioners is pretty good
bunch of men, and we believe they
will carefully guard the best inter-
ests of the county as well as those
of the tax payers.

At the Grier Hotel

The past two weeks procession
of workmen haYe been going
through the new Grier hotel here,
putting the house in shape for
opening. There were painters,
decorators, carpet layers, window
shade hangers, the range man, and
now Mr.. Simons himself is here
unloading and placing the furni-
ture in the building. 1t is prob
able that the first meal will be
served in the new hotel about the
first day of June. The fixtures,
furnishings and the decorations of
the new house are indeed beauti-
full. We believe it will surprise
even those who have the highest
expectations.

BUSINESS
CHANGE
Shelf Stock of Liberal Hard
ware Sold to Ezra Shorb

The stock of shelf hardware be-
longing to the Liberal Hardware
Co., a co-partnership, was sold
Wednesday to Ezra Shorb of this
city. He takes possession at once.
The Liberal Hardware Co., takes
the stock of implements and will
close them out as soon as possible.
They will have a representative at
the store for some time taking
care of their collections and clos
ing up their business. Mr.. Shorb
will at once increase the stock and
continue the hardware business.
The old firm also gives to Mr..
Shorb their good will, and asks
that their former patrons continue
to buy of the store under the new
management. Mr.. Shorb has been
in business here for a lumber OF
years and is widely and favOrably
known. He recently sold his in
terest in the Star Lumber Co., to
the other members, and after
thirty days could not resist the
temptation to get back into the
harness. As Mr.. Shorb is an ex-
perienced business man, he will
make his establishment one of the
best in the city.

A GOOD CLASS
Seven Will Graduate From
High School Next Week

Invitations for the commence
ment exercises of the High School
we're issued the first of the week.
The members of the class of III
have been very busy the past
month preparing for the examina-
tionS and also for the commence
ment exercises, which will be given
this year by the members of the
class. The Baccalaureate sermon
will be preached at thePresbyte yterian
Church next Sunday evening by
Rev. G. w. Kellogg. This is the
opening of the high school com
mencement this year. The com
mencement exercises will be held
at the Opera House on Friday eve
ming, May 26. The class which is
composed of seven of our bright
young people, is one of the largest
in the history of the High School.
The class roll includes May Steyes-
son, Juliet Reeve, Claude Bunyard,
Gladys Allphin, LaFaun Wilkins,
Edna Stevesson and Laura Wood.
1t is a noticeable fact that there
are six girls and only one boy in
the class this year. The class motto
translated from the Latin means
high, higher, highest. The class
colors are crimson and cream.
while for the class flower the Am
erican Beauty rose has been chosen.
The programs for the baccalaureate
sermon and the commencement
exercises follow.

Prospect is Good.

A rainfall of LA inches since
our last issue has put new life into
the wheat around this country. and
farmers, business men, and in
many cases, women and children
are feeling mighty good over the
prospects for a good crop of spring
grain and broomcorn. In all the
territory tributary to Liberal the
farmers are busy sowing spring
crops. They are trying the ability
of good old mother earth to come
back, and if anyone is able to per-
form that task, we believe it is the
wertern Kansas farmer. When it
comes to everlastingly sticking to
it, you can't beat the farmers of
this section of the United States.
If they don't have a good season
for wheat, they plow it up and SOW
a spring crop. That's what makes
it prosperous when other farming
communities are too poor to come
to town on Saturday.

Will Observe Decoration Day

The local q. A. r. men are busy
this week arranging program
for Decoration Day and also for
Memorial Day, which will be Sun
day, May %. A memorial service
will be held at one of the churches
but the further details of the sery-
ice have not yet been arranged.
The w. G. T. U. has been asked
to arrange the program for the ex-
ercises Decoration Day, and will
be able to give it out next week.
The new band will probably be
able to assist with the music Dec
Grafton Day, and there will prob
ably be a large crowd here for the
exercises. All G. A. K. men are
especially invited to be here that
day. Carriages will be provided
to take tie old soldiers to the
cemetery this year, as the old
veterans are getting almost too
feeble to undergo that hardship.
This is one day in the year when
everybody should make a special
effort to give all the assistance
possible to the old soldiers.

Fathers Day

A movement has been started to
observe next Sunday as Fathers
Day in Liberal. All are requested
to wear a white flower for a father
dead, or a cOlored flower for a
father living. The idea isn't a bad
one and will, we believe, meet with
greater encouragement as it is
given more thought.

Forecast Of Fashions for Early Spring

2 such Lenten festivities as demand a
smart high gown, and which viii then
be ready for the entertainments of the
. Easter season.
Among the textures TO be recon-
mended for this type of dress are the
rnarquisettes in both plain and figured
patterns, the figured foulards, the
voiIes. the silk crepons, and then for
slightly more elaborate wear the figur-
cd and lowered chiffon cloths and
chi8ons, and the changeable silks.
FIGURED FABRICS.
T The various lowered and figured ma
terials of transparent quality, such as
, chiffon and voile. are generally made
with a suggestion of a Lunic draping
over a foundation of soft silk or satin.
The foulards, on the other hand, are
dra ped in themselves. but the silk is
cIeverly handled so that there shall be
no fitness about the feet and ankles.
The satins and satin-hnished silks will
be extremely smart for coat and skirt
costumes for afternoon, but the plain
silks are not 70 be SO much in evi-
dence in the house gowns as hereto
fore The different robes of net and
chiffon to drepe over silk foundations
Of different shade are popular and
are excellent investments as a means
Of making a gown OF a former season

In the Illus tration of the first figure
IS shown q charming little afternoon
froclz fashioned from coral and white
striped silk. There is an adorable lit
tie collar OF black panne satin, and this
satin trimming is also used on the
oversleeves and on the Tapped lower
side panels of the skirt. 4 row OF coral
buttons trims either side of the cen
ter-front panel, and a deep crush cir
die OF coral velvet finishes the waist
BRAID TRIMMING.

dark colors black braid is preferable,
but the color OF the costume Is often
matched exactly in the braid and even
IN dark blue is sometimes preferred

feature of the fashions for the coming
spring. This popular collar is seen on
tea gowns and street dresses, on shirt
jackets. It is a pretty fashion If care
fully handled and can look well on
every style OF garment which ii seeks
to adorn, but It must be cut with ref
erence TO the wearer, and one size and

lender young girl, for example, can
wear one Of these collars wide TO the
point of the extreme. while an older
