BUY UNTIL IT HELPS"

"Buy until il hurts" and Civ,
until it hurts" are two expression:
often used the one referring I,
the purchase Of Liberty Bonds anC
the other 10 contributions TO the
Red Cross or the Y. NJ. c. A. OF
Kindred work.
Both are fundamentally false IL
meaning. They should BE- sent ID
the scrap heap of verbal rubbish
and supplanted with Buy until il
helps" and Give until it helps"
Do not for one moment vainglo-
riously think that this means until
it helps the country or the Red
Cross or the Y. NJ. c. A. organiza-
tionS. II means buy or give until
it helps you and gives YOU a
clearer understanding of your re
sponsibility.
Buy until it helps" you by
broadening your vision of the war
and the struggle to save civiliza-
tion.
Buy Liberty Bonds, but not be-
cause you have a surplus which you
can spare without Inconvenience.
Buy not merely because the pur-
chase of Liberty Bonds is strength
ening the nations power to fight.
But buy because your soul needs
the quickening influence of a wider
conception of liberty and humanity
and civilization. And the more
freely you buy the greater will be
the ennobling Of your own soul.
You viii be helping yourself, and
in that way you will at the same
time be helping the nation and civ
ilization.
1t is no act Of charity to buy Lib
erty Bonds. 1t is merely contribut-

ISOLATE INFLUENZA VICTIMS
Those Coming In Contact With Af-
ficted Persons Should Not
Mingle With Others.

An order comes from the Health
Board in regard to abating the spread
of influenza, as follows:
Persons having the disease should
be isolated from the rest of the fam
lily, and those coming in contact with
the afflicted Person should not take
any chance bf communicating the
disease to others.
If member of your family be-
comes victim, secure mask from
the Red Cross and wear it while in
attendance upon them.
Families having children should
eep away from patients and where
they have had an opportunity of con-
tracing the disease they should not
be allowed to mingle with the other
children.
Greater care must be exercised in
preventing the spread of the disease.
Children should not be allowed to
congregate as it is violation of the
order of the Health Board, and there
should be no visiting between fami-
lies.
These precautions must be observ-
ed or it is going to be necessary for
the Health Board to make some dras-
tic orders.

MEADE PAPERS CONSOLIDATE
Wehrle & Wehrle, Publishers of The
News Purchase Meade Globe.

The Meade County Globe is nc
more. The plant, subscription list
and good will has been purchased by
George and Agnes Wehrle, publishers
of the Meade County News and the
two papers have been combined under
the name of the Meade Globe-News.
This is just what has been needed
for many years. Meade is good
town, but it is not large enough to
support two papers under the ordi-
nary circumstances, much less under
war time conditions, and the consoli-
daton will result in a better news
paper representation for the town
than would be possible with the busi-
ness divided.
Mr.. Bunch, editor of the Globe is
retiring, and the paper will be con-

tinued success of the paper.

MRS. MARY ALICE TAYLOR

Mary Alice Evans was born April
18th, 1874, in England, and passed
away at local hospital in this city
October Is, 1918, after a few weeks
suffering.
She was married to T. H. Taylor
June 10, 1895, and to this union nine
children were born, two having pre-
ceeded their mother and were laid
to rest in England, the other seven
children with their father and grand
mother, Mrs. Anna Evans, survive
her.
Mrs. Taylor had been a member of
the Episcopal church. for many years
and lived a consistent Christian life
which won her many friends and
leaves vacancy in the family circle
that will be held very sacred and
dear.
Mrs. Taylor came to America, ac-
companied by Mr.. Taylor, two chill
dren and her mother, in 1908, and she
with her family have lived in and
near Liberal for about IL years.
A large number of friends gather
ed at the Liberal cemetery Sunday
afternoon to pay respect to the de-
parted. AS Episcopalian minister
from Hutchinson had charge of the
funeral services.
The family and mother have the
sincere sympathy of the many friends
in their bereavement.

LAMPE CAME ACROSS

Bill Lampe has dug up"
He is now the proud possessor of
$4,000 worth of Liberty Bonds.
We are now thru shooting at Bill
as long as he remains civilized.
And now there comes to us the re-
port that there are some others right
here in Seward county who failed to
do their duty, and believe us or not.
If we can get the right dope on them
we are going to show them up. We
are told that we are liable to get shot
up or beaten us, but as we have been
shot at and beaten up before it will
not be anything new.
We hate measley Stacker: we
think he is thing more to be de
spised than the dirty Hun who shoots
American boys, for the reason that he
has lived and prospered under the
American flag and then is too cheap
and tight-tisted to support the Gov
ernment that has made him what he
is.
We do not want the support or
friendship of the Stacker. We do not
want to speak to him or see him. We
have absolutely no use for him, and
furthermore we are not afraid of him,
for a Stacker is necessarily coward.
If you are Stacker, and this meets
your eye, we want you to take it
home; to feel that it means YOU.
And when we get the "dope" we
won't do thing to you.
The drive is over, but there is still
bonds left and some of you old rich
devils who have been letting your
selves down easy with a fifty or a
hundred dollar bond had better come
across before you are held up to the
public gaze as Stacker.

AN ATTRACTIVE WINDOW

The display window at Griffith &
Baughman's is very attractive this
week as well as appetizing. Mr..
Baughman arranged the display one
day the first of the week, and in it
you will find some splendid farm and
garden products, crisp leaves of let
tuce, long solid red and white radish-
es, and large pepper plant on which
are hardy red and green peppers.
These were raised by Mrs. l.. B. La
master in her war garden and all
bespeak the results of careful garden
ing. A peanut plant with an abund-
ant supply of fine peanuts, which
were raised by Lloyd Chance in Ste

HOSKINSON MAKING THE
RACE FOR DISTRICT JUDGE
Garden City Man Looks Like a Win
ner for This Important
Office.

Attorney Albert Hoskinson of
Garden City was Liberal visitor the
last of the week in the interest of his
candidacy for District Judge of this
Judicial District.
Hoskinson is the man for this posi-
ton and there is no mistake about it.
This is one Office that should not be
in politics, and for a time was not,
but it has been thrown back into the
political scrap.
Hoskinson has been resident of
this District for 32 years, and prac-
ticing attorney for % years. He was
elected County Attorney of Finney
county two terms, and although the
county, is solidly Republican he was
sent to the State Legislature for one
term, declining the nomination the
second time.
This will show how highly he is es-
Seemed in his home county. He is
essentially man of the people and If
elected the common people will have
a friend at the bar.
His reputation is impeachable and
his record known to the people of the
District, and he should have little
trouble in being elected to the office
of Judge.
Regardless of political preference
the interests of the people dictates
that they support him and no one
who casts a vote for Hoskinson will
ever have cause to regret it.

CORP. HERMAN KIMBLE

Again the hearts of Liberal people
have been saddened by the news that
another of our boys has fallen on the
battlefield.
Corporal Herman Kimble, son of
S. B. Kimble of near Dombey, Ok
lahoma, was killed in action after
four days fighting, on September 20.
The official notice of his death has
not been received, but the word came
through comrade whose parents live
at Emporia, and was transmitted to
his wife.
The letter stated that the writer
was injured by the same shrapnel that
gave Corp. Kimble his death wound.
Corp. Herman Kimble was 26 years
of age. He enlisted in the National
Guard in 1915, and served on the
Mexican border during the summer
of 1916. He was again called into
actual service August 5th, 1917, and
was encamped at Camp Doniphan
until the spring of 1918, when he with
his company, went to France.
Herman had lived here a number
of years, being a graduate of Liberal
High School, class 1915, later attend
ing the State Normal at Emporia,
specializing in manual training work.
He was classified as junior at the
time of leaving school.
On January &c, 1918, while at
Camp Doniphan, he secured fur
Tough and returned to Liberal, where
he was married to Miss Desta Crackle
a teacher in the Lincoln schools. At
ter a few days here he returned to
Camp. His wife visited him a short
time before he left for France.
Herman was among the best known
and best liked Liberal boys. He was
leader in the affairs of the young
people at the Christian church of
which he was faithful member. He
was in every way a man, clean, capa-
BILE and trustworthy, and he has a
host friends who keenly regret that
he could not have been spared to re-
turn to home and loved ones.
He leaves besides his wife, his
father, three sisters and two brothers.
He died bravely in the thick of the
fight, he did his full part, he sacrificed
mans most valuable possession-his
life-for his country and its flag,
The sympathy of all go out to the
bereaved wife and relatives in their
time of sorrow.
The following is the letter Mrs.
Kimble received Tuesday bearing the
sad message:
Emporia, Kans., Oct. 81, 1918.
Mrs. Hermon Kimble,

DEMAND FOR BOOKS

The American soldier isn't satisfied
to return home knowing no more
than when he became a part of our
great national army. For that rea-
son the Liberty War Service of the
American Library Association has
found it necessary to purchase nearly
100000 books on mechanical, techni-
cal and scientific subjects to meet
the demand for informative reading
matter. 1t has been discovered that
there are thousands of men in our
National Army who cannot speak or
read English. For that reason the
Library Association has established
classes in English in nearly all of the
big training camps. There is heavy
demand for books, and even "First
Readers" are on the list of books
asked for and-of course-supplied.
