to the music from motor cars which
were parked in double lines on both
side, of the plaza.
The band was under the direction
of Prof. A. C. Reilly, and the pro
gram was well balanced, containing
both classical and popular airs. The

FEAST OF TABERNACLES, OR
SUKKOTH, A JOYOUS FESTIVAL

in the wilderness The booth which
the modern Israelite decks for the
Feast of Tabernacles is the symbol
of Gods providence; of His goodness
and of mans dependence upon His
benefcence. The booth is symbolical
of life, of mans limitation and Gods
power. Riches, wisdom, strength,
may be taken from man at any mo-
ment. We are strangers and So
journers; our days on earth are
shadow and there is no abiding"

ours in autumn, when the Palestinian
farmer had gathered his grain. It
brought to him the lesson of graft
tude for the blessings he received
and of accountability to God for their
use. The heathens celebrated the
harvest and the vintage by licentious
worship of Bacchus and Cybele, the
crude deifactions of nature. Israel
brought his offerings in gratitude to
God, the author of life The Jew
was commanded to take palm
branches and willows, the myrtle and
citron, type of food and fruit, and
rejoice before the Lord" the source
of earth's teeming bounty.
These festal plants and the sooth
associated with the Sukkoth Festival
are suggestive of spiritual lessons,
and have been retained in the service
of the Reformed Synagog for e.,
reason. Many Orthodox Jews inl
America still take their meals in a
booth, constructed in a convenient
place on their premises, during the
period of the Feast.

The Feast of Tabernacles (Suk-
koth), which will begin Sunday eve-
ming, September the thirtieth, con-
cludes the cycle of sacred services
during the month of Tishri, the
seventh month of the Hebrew year.
This joyous Festival continues eight
days, and the last day bears the
special name Shemini Azereth, the
Feast of Conclusion or the Eight Day
of Solemn Assembly. It's Biblical ac-

RAILROAD STARTED

At last the dream is reality. We
are actually going to get the railroad,
so long looked for. A constant stream
of grading outfits, men, mules, ma
chinery and all kinds of material is
arriving at Shattuck and being hus-
tied out to their respective places. One
outfit has already established camp
and have gone to throwing dirt. Soon
the dirt will be moving along the en-
tire length of the line.
AS the grading has started the sub
ject of most interest to the residents
of the towns close is the new town
sites are going to be surveyed and
opened up for occupancy. The peo-
pie of La Kemp will undoubtedly
have to move as the new town to be
opened up closest to this place will
be but six miles from here. From
what information we can obtain the
townsite will be put on the market
about the first of March. Kemp

FIRE DEPARTMENT
MADE A GOOD RUN
r. l.. Gray Home Scene of
Conflagation We'd
nesday Night

A kerosene stove which was burn
ing in the well house at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. T. L. Fray Wednesday
night set fire to the wood work and
caused a fire which might easily have
caused the destruction of the resi-
dence.
The blaze was discovered by E. D.
Cooper who was driving home in his
Sunnyside car about 10:30. Just as
he was crossing the cement bridge
over Buffalo creek he smelled smoke
and becoming suspicious that some
thing was wrong he circled the block
and returned to the bridge. Glanc-
ilg In the direction of the Gray resi-
dS.a$e he discovered the we'll house on
fire. He aroused the occupants of the
house and the alram was sounded.
The fire company made an excel
lent run, but had trouble in locating
the fire plug. However when it was
located the line of hose was quickly
laid and water turned on the blaze.
The fire boys deserve commenda-
tion for the manner in which they
handled the fire. The well house was
a total loss but the only damage to
the residence was caused by the heat.

HAVE GONE TO LOUISIANA

A party consisting Of w. M. Fisher,
1. N. Pennington, T. F. Hopkins and
wife, Joe Brison and wife, N. L. Falls
and John Snyder, left the first of the
week for Luddington, Louisiana,
where they went to inspect tract of
land being offered for sale by the
Long Bell Lumber company.
Some very attractive literature has
been received regarding the possi-
bilities of the country and these peo-
pie went to make a personal investi-
cation. Messrs. Pennington and
Fisher have been acting for the COM
pany and had charge of the party.
That country has some real advan-
tages and we would not be at all sur
prised if some of the party would
decide to locate there.

LIBERAL MAY Be ABLE TO LAND
ANOTHER FIRST CLASS RAILROAD
Proposition Still Indefinite But Indications Are That An
other Line of Road Will Traverse This Section
Chamber of Commerce Busy

Another railroad is flirting with
Liberal and this time the proposition
looks favorable enough that consider
able interest is being shown.
The proposed line is being promot-
ed by w. c. Fordyce, President of
the Commonwealth Trust Company Of
St. Louis; F. S. Yantis, President,
Judge Lee Monroe, Chief Counsel,
and Ben Allen, Chief Engineer, of the
C. X. & o. Railroad company. This
company now owns mileage be-
tween Scott City and Winona, and
they now plan to extend the line from
Garden City to Forgan, Oklahoma,
using the present line between Gar
den City and Scott City, making a
through line from Winona to Forgan,
Oklahoma, to connect with the Wichi-
ia Falls G. Western at the latter place.
The proposed line would provide a
great outlet to this part of the coun-
try. 1t will cross the D. G. & c. v.
near Sublette or Santata, the main
line of the Santa Fe at Garden City,
the Missouri Pacific and another San
ia Fe line at Scott City, and will con-
meet with the Union Pacific at Win
ona. BY connecting with the Wichi-
ia Falls & Western at Forgan it
would have excellent southern outlets.
making a direct route to the Gulf,
and to the coal fields of Colorado 60
ing in the other direction, providing
us with cheaper coal.
The building of the road would
mark a new era in Seward county
and Southwest Kansas, as it would
open up to easy settlement thousands
of acres of fertile lands now untitled
because of the distance of market,
and enable our farmers to get from 5
to 10 cents more per bushel for their
wheat by reason of its going direct to
the Gulf markets. 1t is beyond all

doubt the best proposition that has
yet been offered the town in the way
of railroads, and the people here are
not slow to appreciate this fact.
The Liberal Chamber OF Commerce
has a railroad committee consisting
of Chas. Summers, chairman, l.. A.
Etzold and John w. Baughman.
These gentlemen are handling the
matter for the organization.
A meeting of this committee, few
members of the organization and a
committee from Garden City, consist
ing of w. o. Carter, Gus Bugheim, C.
A. Miller and Chas. l. Zirkle, promin-
ent business men of that place, was
held at Baughman's office in Liberal
a short time ago and plans made for
a trip from Liberal to Forgan. This
trip was made Saturday. In the par
ty were Messrs. Fordyce, Yantis, and
Allen of the company; H. W. Ma
gruder, president Of the Liberal
Chamber of Commerce and Ray Mill
man of the Baughman office.
All were favorbaly impressed with
the opportunities offered for railroad
building in the territory visited. The
proposition being new to the peo-
pie OF Forgan, there was no great
amount of enthusiasm, but at the
same time the visitors received
enough encouragement to indicate
that Forgan will fall into line when
they receive the proposition.
The original idea, it is said, was to
cross the Rock Island at Plains, but
the route through Liberal is much
more practicable, and it is pretty safe
to say that If the road is built, and
the Democrat is confident enough to
say it will be built at some time, it
will pass through Liberal. This is
sure to be the case if Seward county
and: tsie, town of Liberal will do the
right thing by the promoters, and
everyone whom we have heard ex-
press themselves declare that they
are in favor of doing everything in
their power.
A meeting was called at Craig's
hall Monday night which was attend
ed by big crowd. Chairman Sum-
mers expected to have a definite
proposition from the promoters by
that time and the meeting was called
to give it to the public. However,
the letter did not arrive and the time
was spent discussing the advantages
of the railroad to Seward county and
the city of Liberal. Several good
talks were made by ]. F. Fuest, e. D.
Cooper, Judge Etzold and Mr.. Sum-
mers, and there was more or less
a general discussion.
1t is very likely that a meeting will
be called at an early date and the
in detail placed before the
public.

WANTS TO KNOW THE
PUBLIC SENTIMENT
Representative Farmer Will
Welcome Suggestions
From Home

Representative A. A. Farmer has
written Liberal people to learn their
attitude on the Webb-Kenyon bill.
This is bill designed to stop the
shipment of booze into dry territory,
known as the "Bone-Dry'' bill. Mr..
Farmer would be pleased at any time
to hear from persons concerning pro-
posed legislation, so no one need hes
itate in taking UP with him any mat
ters in which they are interested. In
the instance of the "Bone-Dry" bill,
Mr.. Farmer will welcome suggestions
from those whom he represents.

WOULD STOP BOOZE SHIPMENTS
Senator Thompson of Kansas Intro
duces "Bone-Dry" Law.

Washington, Jan. Ex-senator
Thompson Of Kansas has introduced
a bill in the Senate forbidding the
shipment of intoxicants for any pur-
pose into "dry" states. This measure
goes a step farther than the Webb
Kenyon law, just upheld in the su-
preme court, which prohibits the
shipment of liquor into "dry" state
for unlawful purposes. The Thomp-
son measure would stop all ship
ments.-Star.

WHY NOT?

Almost every exchange coming to
the Democrat has contained the an
nual report of the Township Treas
urers of the different townships, but
so far we have not seen any from
the townships of Seward county. It
is our impression that the publica-
tions of these reports is required by
law, and it might be we'll for the
Township Treasurers to look the mat
ter up.

INVENTED ELECTRIC HEATER :

I. Ansel Wysong has invented an elec-
trio heater, an appliance to be used
instead of the gasket between the
carburetor and manifold and which
heats and vaporizes the gas, starting
the motor in the coolest weather.
The attachment can be used on any
car.
Mr.. Wysong is member of the
firm of Sutherland & Wysong who
have garage just east of Woods
lumber yard, and is competent me-
chanic. The firm is swamped with
orders for this heater, as 1t does away
with much back breaking cranking.

applied for.-Meade Globe.
