M. E. PEOPLE MAKING
PLANS FOR BUILDING
Expect to Erect One of Most
Commodious Structures
in Southwest.

Not only the exterior design, but
the interior of the proposed Metho-
dist church are now on exhibition,
and when the building is completed
it will be one Of the finest and most
commodious buildings in tbs part of
the state.
The new building will be construct
ed on the most approved plans to be
had and every foot of space will be
utilized, and it will have seating
capacity in the main auditorium of
almost thousand.
The congregation is proceeding
according to new plan in connection
with the financing of the proposition
and it is not expected to start until
something like half the cost of the
structure is on hand
The building will occupy the lots
now occupied by the old build
ing, which is about as conveniently
located as could be desired, and will
be big asset to the town.

THE FLU CONDITION DOES
NOT IMPROVE PERCEPTIBLY Y
Many New Cases Reported Each Day,
But Not Many Fatalities
Reported.

The flu situation is still far from
satisfactory Although restrictions
are being made from time to time
there seems to be no abatement of the
infection.
Many new cases are reported daily
but the cases proving fatal are not
more numerous than in the past.
The schools are still running tho
badly handicapped by the absence of
pupils and teachers, and other places
are continuing as usual. However
the local Health Board has adopted
the regulations of the State Board
which are published in this issue and
it is expected that this will cause
cessation in the spread of the dis
ease.
Liberal is nowhere near as hard
hit as other towns in this section of
the state. Elkhart and Garden City
seem to be the worst afflicted, reports
stating that there are hardly enough
well people to care for the sick.

HENRY FORD WILL
START NEWSPAPER

Henry Ford has turned over the
business of the Ford Automobile
Company to his son, and announces
that he will soon launch national
weekly newspaper
Thinking that perhaps his paper
would be handled by the same firms
as his car, we called on Manager
Trindle of the Liberal Auto Supply
Company, for an interview, but we
did not get very far. Mr.. Trindle
finally mentioned that he had SER
ious doubts as to whether Ford could
make as good paper as he could
an automobile, and that while he ex-
pected to continue to sell Ford cars
he had no idea of tying to Henry on
the newspaper proposition.
Anyway we're anxious to see the
new paper, as we have often longed
for a million dollars and a printing
press at the same time. If Henry
falls down it would be pleasure to
take his place for a while at least.
