the property OF the district and loan
ed to the pupils Parents and guar

EIGHT NEW CHARTERS
New Independent Refinery at NiOtaze
Among Lists Granted.

Eight new charters were granted
today by the state charter board
which met in the office of Secretary
of State Charles Sessions. Important
among these were charters for the
opening of a new half million dollar
independent refinery at NiotaZe,
Chautauqua county. the John-Carl
Oil company, $4,000 corporation
located at Coffeyville, and a permit
for a new 100000 metal belt COM
pany in Wichita.
In the last few months the oil bust
ness in the southern Kansas field has
shown new life. After a lulf of sew
eral years, prices have been crowded
back to a point somewhere near the
old figures and the producers have
new hopes. All of the southern Kan
SaS refinerieS are now running full
time and the opening of the new half
million dollar plant at Niotaze is re-
garded by oil producers as an evil
dence of future prosperity in the
field. The incorporators of the new
refinery are Louis D. Moore, Henry E.
Paul c. L'Amoreaux and Carl Liesin-
the oil business is the launching of a
new $4,000 oil company at Coffey-
Vile.
One of the charters of interest to-
day was the granting of a charter for
a new Socialist paper at Girard by the
interests now behind the Appeal to
Reason. The new paper will be
known as THE Coming Nation and
is Incorporated by John G.. Wayland,
w. H. Wayland and Fred d. Warren
of Girard. The capital of the new
