Roads Bonds Not Sold.

The road bonds of Parish and
Town which were offered for sale
were not. sold for the reason that
all bids offered were below par and
could not be accepted. The Lii
berty Bond now Oh sale has ma
terlally affected the sale Of all
other bonds Some time ago such
bonds as were offered would have
been sold at a premium instead of
a discount. The bonds will be
lreld until such time as the market
will improve and the bond can be
sold at their real value. 1t NAV
be best after all that the bonds
were not sold because at the pre-
sent time road material is almost
double ordinary prices. The de-
lay simply means more money and
more roads.

Taxes have been levied to raise

More money must be raised by the

Therefore, let every merchant,

1t is a good investment. 1t will

The sum of forty billion dollars

Crops Reported Short.

crop short, barely making a sup

the cane crop will be shorter than

member of the grand council of Roy
al and Select Masters and of the grand
chapter of Royal Arch. He also served
in the office of master of Orient Lodge
of Perfection No. 8. of the Scottish
Rite.
Mr.. Chandler worked his way from
| a carpenter in the little town of Ba-
zaar, Chase county, to state architect
and probably never made a political
speech. For several years before he
came to Topeka in 1899, Chandler
was a carpenter in Bazaar and Sedg-
wick. He followed the carpenter
trade several years in Topeka. Then
he studied architecture. Thru appli-
cation of his architectural studies he
gained recognition.
When Walter Roscoe Stubs came
into office in 1909, he looked about
for new state architect. The late
John F. Stanton was then architect
and had dared to run counter to the
Stubs rule. So Charles H. Chandler
went into the architects office and
Stanton went out.
So well did Chandler handle the
work in the architects office and so
little did he play politics that he was
re-appointed when Stubs left the
state house. Governor Hodges, a
Democrat, not only named Chandler,
nlrnSeIf.
Hodges and Chandler were warm per-
sonal friends during the two years of
the Hodges regime.
Eight Years as Architect,
When Governor Capper came into
office in 1918, he retained Chandler
and he was re-appointed for a two
years term during the recent legisla-
tive session. He concluded his eighth
successive year under three success
i've state administrations May /, this
year. Many of the modern state build
ings have been designed by Mr.. Chand-
Ter and were constructed under his
direction. Among these buildings have
been Memorial hall, additions to the
state printing plant, state agricultural
| college gymnasium. state university
administration building, Sheridan col
liseum. Hays normal; Plumb memoir
! lal hall, Emporial normal; arts build
ing and Ross hall. Pittsburg normal
new east wing state house and modern
| buildings at practically all state in
| situations. Plans for buildings at the
Larned hospital. Pratt fish hatchery,
Norton tuberculosis sanitarium and
! Hutchinson fair.
/ Mr.. Chandler was married to Miss
Mary Leonard at Bazaar November
IL, 1885, seven years after he came to
Kansas from Chester, Vt, his birth
place in 1864. Mr.. Chambers we'd
ding was on his twenty-second birth
day anniversary. There are two chill

HOLIDAY LEAVES
A New Order Today for Soldier
Christmas Vacations.
Five Per Cent From the Funs-
ton Camp Can Go Home.

Camp Funston, Dec. 19.-Just one
half of the men who had planned to
spend Christmas at home will be al
lowed to obtain leaves for noon Satur-
day. and it will be a jolly lot that
crowds the station platform, bags in
hand and smiles on their faces.
There were many sad men last Mon
day when a general order came out
quoting the war department to the eff
feet that no men in military service
would be allowed to ride the trains
and that only those men who could get
home by machines or on street cars
could be home for the big dinner"
The original plan here was to allow
10 per cent of the men in camp enjoy
four days leave during Thanksgiving,
Christmas and New Years holidays.
The men who were selected to go
home for the Thanksgiving holidays
have already enjoyed their visit, and
Christmas had been picked in some of
! the organizations. The new order
created quite a lot of excitement
among the 10 per cent that had been
| looking forward to the coming holiday.
After they had been denied the visit
they had been looking forward to and
had finally learned that half of the
men selected were to go, the men who
did get leaves were more than happy.
! The congestion of the railroads was
| the cause OIL the WnOle ana
when the war department found that
the railroads were going to be able to
| take care of the men, the new order
was issued.
But the men who are required to
remain in camp are going to have an
enjoyable time, too. The Christmas
committee says that about everything
| is in readiness and that the enter
| tainment- for the men who are to re-
main here is going to be a wonderful
| success
There are, of course, about 1000
men in camp that had expected to go
! home, when the ten per cent ruling
was issued. but the five per cent rul-
| ing required that half of these men
remain here and SO there are some
| two thousand men to spend the holi-
days with their comrades in camp.
From good authority comes the
! word that these men will receive some
/ sort of reward for the work they have
done and that they will not regret
having been required to remain here
| for the Christmas holiday.
