DUTCH QUEEN MAYLOSE CROWN
Wllhelmlna's inclination to 6efrlenh
Former German Ruler Adds Fuel
to Revolutionary Propaganda.

London, Nov. 16.-There Is increas
ing clamor in Holland for the abdica'
tion OF Queen Wilhelmina.
The surreptitious entry Of William
Hohenzollern in search Of sheltering
seclusion within Dutch boundaries
and the expressed inclination Of the
queen to extend hospitality to the
war fugitive aroused intense indigna'
tion.
A dispatch from The Hague says
the Dutch government has issued a
proclamation urgently appealing for
the cooperation of citizens in a grave
crisis"
It says the minority is threatening
to seize power and declares its de-
termination to maintain authority and
order.
While the demand for abdication
originated among Socialists, the cry
against Wilhelmina is taking on daily
momentum and popular uprising ap-
pears imminent.
Jonkheer Colyn. former Dutch war
minister, has been recalled from Eng
land to Holland and 1t is believed
will be charged with formation OF q
new Dutch government;
Information reaching here from Of
ficial sources indicates that the situ-
alton in Holland is causing grave ap-
prehension and that the presence
there Of the former German emperor
with members of his family and some
of his strongest supporters may so
inflame the people as to endanger the
monarchy.
While 1t is true, It is pointed out,
that the former kaiser is practically
prisoner in the Won Bentinck castle,
he is not the prisoner of any Of his
foes. It was suggested that the i'm
mediate fate of the ex-kaiser Is OF
little moment compared with other
affairs in Europe, and 1t is chiefly
because of the effect Of his presence
upon an already disturbed state in
The Netherlands that he is the object
of concern among Allied statesmen.
Bolshevism apparently has taken
root in Holland. Before the war the
relations between the Dutch and Ger
man courts were very close and 1t is
suggested that the Bolsheviki may see
In the presence Of the former ruler OF
Germany an excuse to precipitate an
uprising against the queen.

WARE HOUSE DECEMBER
Zinc Storage Housed Ready by De-
cember 1st-COntracts Let
for More

Letters have been mailed out by
the Oklahoma Ore Storage association
10 the operators of the Missouri-Kan-
sas-O Oklahoma zinc and lead mining
field, to the effect that the first ware
house will be finished and ready to
receive ore by December l.
The first warehouse, known as No.
/, located at Picher, Okla, is the first
unit of a string of warehouses to be
built at different points in the field.
The Picher warehouse will be en-
larged at an early date to three times
its present capacity, it is said. Con-
tracts have been let for the construc-
ton of two more such storage houses
in the Oklahoma district. These will
be located at Douthat and Cardin,
Oklahoma, district. Plans are un-
der way to lay narrow-guage tracks
from the mines to the warehouse,
thus facilitating the handling Of
ores. The narrow-guage roads Will
not be built, of course, until a string
of warehouses are in operation and
only short hauls made necessary.
One of the most important factors
of the warehouse plan is that arrange
ments were made by the association,
through the banks, whereby the pro-
ducer may borrow up to 80 per cent
of the average price, before work Of
construction was started. In the mat
ter of establishing a basic price, the
average price of the finished product
for the last three months has been
taken.
A survey has been made Of the
amount available to be located on ore
in the warehouses and that figure has
been placed at $S,OOO,OOO.

HEADACHE WARNING
Remove the Cause with Natur-
lied Liver Tablets

Headaches are one of natures
warning. They mean danger. Remove
the cause by taking Naturized Liver
Tablets. If cold and bile is allowed to
clog and accumulate, you are indanger
of having your entire system poison
ed, for the simple reason that if this
poisonous matter is not removed when
natures warning says it should be,
your blood will absorb it and distrib-
ute to every extremity of the body,
then serious results are likely to fol-
low. A mild laxative will not expel
bile and colds. 1t takes a good purga-
tive. Take Naturized Liver Tablets,
natures best purgative. They are
small, active, safe and sure. They viii
not salivate, sicken, gripe or leave yOu
constipated. Get bottle today and If
they are not the best purgative you
have ever used, 60 back where you
purchased them and get your money.

CHICKEN HOUSE NEEDS
VENTILATION CHIEFLY
Ross M. Sherwood Explains Types Of
Buildings Satisfactory in Kansas
+ Drafts at Night to Be Avoided

Good ventilation in the chicken
house is essential to success in the
poultry business, according to Ross
M. Sherwood, poultry husbandry spe-
cialist in the extension division Of the
Kansas State Agricultural college.
"The two methods most commonly
used in Kansas are the open front
house and the curtain front house"
said Mr.. Sherwood. "The open front
provides the most fresh air and is
giving excellent results in some sec
tions Of the state, but many persons
find it desirable to have curtains that
may be placed over most Of the op-
enings during bad weather. 1t has
been found that q house closed on
three sides and tightly curtained on
the south does not provide enough
fresh air. To remedy this, q narrow
opening is often made just under the
rafters. This causes q freer circula-
ton of air than is possible with all
the opening curtained, and yet does
not allow the wind to blow on the
fowls"
The large curtained openings should
be from 30 to 36 inches from the tiOOr
in order that the wind may not sweep
in directly upon the flock.
During the summer months open
ings on the other sides Of the building
are necessary to make It cool enough
that the fowls will rOOst there. These
openings should be so lOcated that the
birds will not be in a direct draft dur
ing the night. These extra openings
should be closed tightly in winter

Rehabilitation Services at Pres
byterian Church Attracts
Large Congregations

The seating capacity Of the Presby-
terian church was taxed Sunday to
take care Of the people who turned
out to the re-dedication services. Pre-
sumably the increased attendance was
due to the desire to hear the new pipe
organ. This desire was fully satisfied.
The instrument, with its full rich
tones artistically brought out by Miss
Bess B. Anderson, who came here
from NeOshO, No., especially for the
occasion, was indeed q delight and the
choir sang beautifully with the new
accompaniment. A duet by Mrs. H.
D. Long and Earl Confer was also
charmingly rendered. There were Op-
ening remarks by Rev. John Garrett
sOn, the pastor, and addresses by
Revs. o. L. 0rton and John Pearce,
whose congregations joined with the
Presbyterians for the occasion.
