Kansas City Monday For
Stealing Car February 9
B. B. Bydston Owned the Ma
chine Which Has Not Been
Located. Sold in Dalhart

After a search of nearly five
months, C. A. Rodgers, who stole a
Ford car belonging to B. B. Bydston
on February 6, was arrested in Kan
sas City and returned to Liberal

Bydston's car, which was standing in
front of the Enterprise Mercantile
Company's store. He drove the ma
chine to Dalhart and there disposed
of it. He claims that he does not
know who bought the car. Sheriff
Dobson intends to go to Dalhart and
see if he can locate it.
Rodgers has been working in the

SAYS CROPS NEED RAIN
N. A. Smith, of Near Hayne, Still
Has Hopes, Though

N. A. Smith of near Hayne, was in
town Tuesday and paid his respects
to the Democrat force. Mr., Smith
reports that spring crops in his vicin-
ity are looking nice in general but
will have to have rain before long
or it will not make much.
81 yeIsome stuff that is nearly
waist high" he said, "and others in
the same field that isn't up more
than two or three inches. Some parts
of my field blew little and there the
crop looks bad, of course"
Mr.. Smith planted 235 acres of
wheat last fall and expects to harvest
most of it although the yield will be
small.
Robert B. Smith, one of Mr.. Smiths
sons who has been in the jewelry
business at Sedalia, Mo-, came home
Monday to visit his folks a short
time before he is called to service in
the army. Roy Paraguay, of the
same city, accompanied him home.
Mr.. Smiths eldest son also is located
at Sedalia. He is manager Of the
telephone system and is organizing

WILL USE POEMS
OF KANSAS AUTHOR
Carleton Everett Knox Will be
a Regular Contributor to
The Democrat.

Carleton Everett Knox, the Kan
sas poet, was Liberal visitor last
week, and being an old acquaintance
of the editor of the Democrat, made
much appreciated visit to our sane
tum. While Mr.. Knox was here we
arranged to use his productions in
The Democrat, and we feel sure our
readers will agree with US that we
have something very nice.
During the past three or four years
Mr.. Knox has established a great
reputation as writer and reader Of
verse. He travelled on a Chautauqua
circuit one season, and made a de-
cided hit with his audiences. He is
a member of the "Quill Club" one of
the larger literary clubs of Kansas
City, as well as an active member of
the Kansas Authors Club. His work
has been on the market in book and
card form for several years and has
had wonderful sale. His best thing
in the book line is his worth While"
series.
DR.. John G. Wooley, noted tenn
perance lecturer, and twice Prohibi-
tion candidate for president, after
reading the worth While" Series,
wrote Mr.. Knox, as follows:
"Dear Mr.. Knox:
81 read every word and was glad
to. The three sustained notes-al-
truism, optimism and patriotism,
make fascinating chord.
John G. Wooley.
Watch for these poems each week,
and if you like them make scrap
book and preserve them. When the
series is complete you will have as
fine collection of verse as has ever
been penned by a Kansas author.

tween the ages of 21 and 81, inclu-
sive, to Washington. The draft will
be made by lot. About 10000
names will be drawn in the first lot
These will be sent back to the exemp-
tion boards where those selected will
be passed on. Another draft will be
made as soon as the board decides
who shall be excused. All Sc
lected will have to pass physical
examination with the local physician
and another with the army physician.
The Seward county board is made
up of o. E. Dobson, sheriff; Abe X.
Stoufer, county clerk; DR.. George S.
Smith, Physician.

iff; W. W. Pressly, county clerk; DR..

SURVEYING CREW
NOW IN SATANTA
C. X. & o. Men Are Moving
Along Rapidly With Pre-
liminary Work.
Plan to Reach Cimarron River
by July Santa Fe
Is Working, Too.

The surveying crew working
south from Garden City on the C. X.
& o. were within six miles Of Sa-
tanta Tuesday, according to John w.
Baughman and Harry Magruder who
were up in that territory. They are
probably through Satanta by this
time.
"They are surveying several miles
day." said Mr.. Baughman. eff
teen or eighteen men make up this
crew and they move right along. l
was told that they expected to have
the line surveyed to the river by
July A."
Another surveying crew is work
ing on the new Santa Fe road run
ming west from Satanta, through New
Ulysses, Johnson City and to the
state line.- This crew has reached
New Ulysses and will soon have their
work completed. 1t is thought that
construction work will begin in the
fall.
Concerning the work on the south
end of the C. K. & O., the Forgan
Eagle says:
"The surveying crew under Mr..
Phillips that came in last week from
the north, have been running lines
and taking the elevations between
here and the river ever since. They
have kept the same general direction
all the time but are trying to find the
best grade out of the river. This
seems hard to do without consider.
able work. The report is that the
builders already have the material
and will begin actual construction
right away. The crossing on the
Cimarron north of town is the only
one for miles either way that could
be used, and from the success and
care in making this survey, it seems
this will be the route used"

BEGAN AS HOLDUP,
ENDED IN FOOTRACE
Robber Didn't Like Looks of
w. d. Wiedensaul's Fist
Broke Speed Record

A little vaudeville stunt was pulled
off in the northwest part of town
Saturday night that would bring a
laugh from any audience in the
world.
There was no especial stage setting,
no fixed plot of any kind, and no con-
tinuity as regard the character of the
act. 1t began in all seriousness as
hold-up and ended in a footrace
with only one individual taking part.
W. d. Wiedensaul was coming home
last Saturday night about II o'clock
carrying in his arms a few groceries
and a loaf of bread. AS he was
crossing the grounds of the Second
Ward school man stepped up to him
and said: "Put 'em up! Stick up
your handsW
Mr.. Wiedensaul didn't like to be
ordered around by total stranger.
He seemed inclined to argue the mat
ter so he asked the man what he
meant. Again the command was Civ
en- "Put 'em up! Stick up your
handsw
Mr.. Wiedensaul concluded that
wasn't the thing to do. He'd rather
hit the brave burglar. So he dropped
his groceries and bread and drew
back to strike. The footrace started
just at the moment the groceries did.
The brave hold-up man was several
blocks away before the groceries hit
the ground.
Mr.. Wiedensaul flung the loaf of
bread after the fleeing man but it
missed its mark mainly because it
lacked velocity.
"The man was tall and slender"
said Mr.. Wiedensaul. 81 believe it
was fellow l had seen loafing
around the streets last week. look
ed all over town for him Sunday but
i couldn't find any trace. So /
Judge he was the one. knew there
wasn't any danger of being shot
after he gave the command the sec
ond time so I was going to paralyze
him with one lick. But he didn't
wait"

TOURISTS NEED
CAMPING GROUND
John Baughman Says Towns
Must Provide Such Places
To Get Business
Nearly All Towns Making a Bid
for Such Business Have
Them Already.

A camping ground for tourists is
one of the biggest needs of Liberal at
present, according to John W. Baugh-
man. Mr.. Baughman has just re-
turned from Today motoring trip
to Colorado. Every town that was
making any bid whatever for tourist
business had some place for the tour
lists to pitch their tents.
"Many travellers by motor car these
days are camping out" said Mr..
Baughman. Every year the idea
seems to be growing in popularity,
too. If we get them to use the Kan
sas-C California Highway the towns
along this highway must do some
thing that will make this highway
appeal to them above all others. And
obviously, the town that has the best
camping ground is the one that is
going to get the tourists money"
A camping ground should have
shade, running water, a couple of
good electric lights and it should be
close in. "A man should be employed
to keep the place cleaned up, as some
of the campers are careless.
Probably the best place in Liberal
for camping ground is in the half
block on the east side of Kansas
Avenue, between Fifth and Sixth
streets. Only one light would have
to be put in since there is a street
light on the north and south. A
hydrant could be put in at a small
cost. The only thing lacking would
be shade. The place would have the
desirable feature of being close in.
Another place suggested is the
school grounds ON North Lincoln
street between Sixth and Seventh.
This has no advantage over the other
plot. 1t is farther out, too, and could
not be used after school started.
Both Pueblo and Denver have set
aside portion of their city parks
for travellers. Dozens of smaller
places are using their public school
grounds where no other place is
available.
Considering the small outlay re-
quired, this is thing that should be
attended to at once since it will
bring a large amount of business to
the town.
