tits with regret that the Democrat
notes the departure of the Matkin
family, as in their going we lose some
of our best citizens, people who make
the community better for having
lived in it.
Mr.. Maxim is good business man,
fair in his dealings, considerable Of his
patrons, and we'll liked by all who
know him.
As musician he has few equals
and he was always ready and willing
to take part in anything that de-
manded his talent. He will be missed
from the musical circles Of the town.
We are sorry that the Matkin fam
lily has seen fit to go elsewhere; but
at the same time they will take with
them to their new home the earnest
best wishes of host of friends for
health and success. We heartily COM
mend them to the good people of

7dence and friendship.

The Booster Choir
Sang Saturday Night
Two Hundred Boys and Girls
Formed Great Chorus That
Delighted Large Audience.

Have you heard the Booster Choir?
If you have not you have missed
something. The children made their
first appearance Saturday evening.
They surprised everyone by their
splendid singing. Two hundred boys
and girls filled the choir platform and
spilled over on adjoining places of
vantage.
Prof. Wickland knows how to han
die children. We have never seen
anything like the results he has al
ready attained with these boys and
girls. If we had been told about it
and not seen and heard for ourselves
we would be inclined to doubt it.
This large choir Of children sings
only Saturday evenings and the SER
vice begins promptly at 1880 so it
is essential to be on time to hear
them. 1t will be worth an extra eff
fort and sacrifice also. Everyone in
Liberal should avail themselves Of
this opportunity for there are only
two more Saturday evenings in the
campaign program.

If You Can't Afford a
Ford You Can Walk
Price Went Up and Caught Lot of
People Mapping Who Had
Ordered Cars.

"Take it or leave it," That is the
dope that J. G. Trindle Of the Liber-
al Auto Supply Co., was putting out
Saturday.
Mr.. Trindle had booked a large
number of orders for cars, and OF
course took them at the price quoted
at that time. The cars arrived and
then came an order from the COM
pany that the cars had been raised
in price and under the terms of his
agreement Mr. Trindle must raise the
price to his customers.
However, he did not insist on any
one taking the, cars. They are well
worth the new price and will find
a ready sale, so those who did not
want to take the raise merely lost
out on their cars.
But it kept Joe pretty busy ex-
planning for a few days.

Plenty of Water For
Gardens This Year
Additional Wells and Big Reservoir
Guarantee a Plentiful
Supply.

The question has been raised as to
whether or not it is advisable to plant
gardens with a view to irrigating
from the city water plant. 1t is.
With the four new wells and the
great reservoir there will be plenti-
full supply of water for all purposes,
and it will be perfectly safe to put
out good garden.
And it is high. time to think about
this matter. Get the ground ready
early, have the seed bought, and have
the work under way just as soon as
the weather permits.
We don't go particularly strong on
winning the war with radishes, but a
good garden will cut the cost Of liv-
leg and while one is digging in the
dirt they are not doing anything bad.

Exceptional Crowd
Last Saturday Night
Surprised Rev. Rayburn Who Made
Comment on the Large
Attendance.

The Saturday night crowd at the
Tabernacle was somewhat of a sur
prise to Evangelist Rayburn. As
a usual thing the business houses
running late Saturday night has a
bad effect on the audience for that
evening, but this was hardly in evil

marked that the crowd Saturday
night was the largest he had ever

II feel that in Justice ! owe such
statement to the splendid officers
and men of the Army, who have for
gotten themselves and labored with
selfsacriice and. as / think success,

1T is due also to the great num-
Der of men of business and of af-
fairs who have accepted the invita-
tion of the War Department to come
to Washington and brought their

their judgment to the work in hand.
And l think the people of the coun-
