Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1917-11-01

The shortage of petrol, as gasoline
Is known abroad, occasioned by the
enormous quantities needed on the
battle fronts, has resulted, in England,
in the Introduction of fuel alterna-
tive In England the use of motorcy-
cles for private use necessarily came
to standstill when the gasoline be-
came acute. But it is reported that
motorcyclists there soon discovered
that coal gas would serve just as well.
A gas container in the form of bal
loon Is hoisted on steel supports
above the machine. giving the whole
outfit the appearance of a zeppelin
pup.
They are popularity termed balloon
bikes" and are said to operate much
more cheaply on coal gas than on gaso-
line. The possibilities that might re-
suit from a meeting between this new
contraption and good broadside gale,
can only be Imagined, but there would
undoubtedly be no lack of thrills.-Ex-

Memorial to Tom Thomson.

A fitting memorial has just been
erected in the wilds of Algonquin park
to the late Tom Thomson, the diStin-
guished young Canadian artist, who
was drowned there last July, says the
Toronto Globe. On the hill overlook
ing Canoe lake, where Thomson lost
his life, and whose beauties he had
Transcribed for an ever widening cir
Gle of admirers, there now stands a
cairn built from native stone, and on
it's face brass plate with the follow
ing inscription:
ITO the memory of Tom Thomson
artist, woodsman and guide, who was
drowned in Canoe lake, July 8, 1917
HE lived humbly but passionately
with the wild. 1t made him brother
to all untamed things of nature. II
drew him apart and revealed itself
wonderfully to him. 1t sent him out
from the woods, only to show these
revelations through his art, and 1t took
him to itself at last.
His fellow artists and other friends
and admirers join gladly in this trib-
ute to his character and genius.
His body is buried at Owen Sound

MORE GIFTS TO UNIVERSITY
Mrs. w. q. Thayer OF Kansas City Adds
to Big Schools Art
Collection.

A single piece of Chinese tapestry,
valued at $500, and silver pudding
mold that belonged to Betty Wash
ington, George Washington's sister.
are among the $4,000 collection of
forty-seven art objects Mrs. w. B.
Thayer of Kansas City gave to the
University of Kansas this week. They
are supplemental gift to the William
B. Thayer Memorial Art Collection
which Mrs. Thayer gave the Univer-
sity last June and which is valued at
$15O, 900 and includes more than six
thousand paintings, by old and mod
ern masters, bronzes, textiles, cera-
mics, and other art and historical OBJ
jects.
Another valuable art gift to the Uni
versity this week is announced by
W. A Griffith, professor of drawing
and painting. 1t is made through
Mrs Thayer by DR.. Frank Gonzales
of Chicago and consists of rare Turk
estan rug, collection of Oriental en-
broideries and valuable type of Per-
sian ceremics. Rare pieces of old
English enamels are contained in a
gift promised the University by Bos-
| ton collector, which is to be announc-
| ed later.
The giving OF the William b. Ihdy-
| er Memorial to the University has put
Kansas on the art map, Mr.. Griffith
says. The piece of Chinese tapestry
| given by Mrs. Thayer this week is
one of the best types of the Ming
| dynasty. 1t is about five hundred
years old and represents the coming
of the dragon to China. 1t is of silk
nine feet, five inches long, and five
feet, seven inches wide. 1t required
about forty years in the weaving, Mr.
Griffith estimates. A counterpart Of
the piece is in the Field Museum in
Chicago.
Other pieces in Mrs. Thayer's gift
to the University this week consis
of two highly ornamented Italian &c
| clesiastical vestments of the Eff
teenth century, japanese and Chimes
worries and embroideries.

Activity OF Russian Women.

As Russia was the first country
where women were given control over
their inherited property, and as Petro--
grad has had for some years the larg--
est medical college for women in Eu-
rope, it is not strange that women
have taken such an active part In the
military campaigns. In all the revolu-
tionary movements the women stu
dents have been more dangerous per-
haps, to the government, than the
men. 1t is believed that the majority
of the women amazons are revolution
lists and that their military experience
was sought for the opportunity it gave
them to spread their doctrine.

Japanese Temperature" Ghosts.

Ghost stories in Japan develop in
warm weather. High temperature has
raised ghost at one OF the fashion
able baths in Kobe. About the middle
of June, a woman died in the estab-
lishment. Two days later, another
woman was taken i'll at the same place
and died when taken home. She as
serted that while at the bath, being
entirely alone, her name was distinctly
called. This call was several times
repeated This incident, with usual
exaggerations. became known to the
patrons of the bath and custom almost
ceased The bathhouse keeper has un-
dertaken TO restore the damaged repu-
tation of his establishment by employ
ing a street orator who delivers sew
eral lectures daily on the absurdity of
the ghost story Thus far, his at

War Declared on
Rats by U. S. Govt.

The government at Washington is pre-
pairing a campaign that should be effec-
tive in killing the rats that are so destruc-
tive both to lives and property. A con-
sentative estimate places the loss of food
stuffs from rats at over two hundred mill
lion dollars annually, and in the present
scarcity of food, this loss must be pre-,
vented. The most efficient way to Kill
the Rat is by the use of Stearns' Paste,
and thousands of dollars worth have been
bought by the government. Every house
keeper troubled with rats, mice, reaches
or waterbugs should buy a small box OF
this reliable exterminator for thirty-fiye
cents, and stop further loss Of food in
her home. Adv.
