Park.

Analysis shows that the very large
Increase In visitors TO the SequOla
National park last summer amount

prd attendance OF the summer before,
q fact which strongly emphasizes
what has been called the manifest
destiny OF the Greater Sequoia as
the future summer camping place OF
the nation.

national park service says:

~Foop WILL WIN THE WAR;

When the sennte's committee on ag-
rculture was investigating the subject
OF foodstufA the liquor men denied
that they consumed hs much ms the
prohibidonlsts said they did. They de
slared that they used only one per cent
Of the grain.
All right. let's take them at their
word.
One per cent OF the grain will feed
one per cent OF the people. This means
100000 people, because there are
100000 Of US In this country.
We shall probably send 100000 sol

Will EndeavOr to M
Have Roads Dragged

A. S. Neff of the Blue Bell district
was in the city yesterday and was
looking up the proposition Of having
the road leading to the city dragged
Since the rain has fallen it is possible
to drag the road and put it in much
better shape for travel.
He was instructed that the town
ship board was willing to have the
work done insofar as the road work
was done in Liberal Township. Mr..
Neff said he had men all ready to
go.
The Blue Bell road is one of the
important highways to the city from
the east, and we are glad to note
that the people are becoming inter
ested at the right time toward max
ing repairs. The best time in the
world to drag roads is right after
rain.

MUCH INTEREST IN
WOMEN'S MEETING
Mrs. Rayburn Talked to an Audience
of 400 Women and Girls Sum
day Afternoon at the Chris
tan Church.

The Christian church building was
seated to its full capacity Sunday af-
ternoon when Mrs. Rayburn ad-
dressed the women of Liberal Des-
pite the drizzle of rain and muddy
streets 400 women came out to hear
the message.
The meeting opened with song and
prayer, followed by the scripture les
son-that beautiful story of "The
Woman of Samaria." Mrs. Ira Sallev
sang an impressive solo, "He Died of
a Broken Heart"
After the announcements beau
tiful duet, "Come Unto Me-" was
sung by Mrs. Pysher and Mrs. Salley.
Mrs. Rayburn in her talk said in
part: ."The attractiveness of theme
is often influenced by the way it is
first presented. We fail to interest
people in our Savior because we fail
in our presentation. 1t is matter of
introducing the subject in a tactful
way, as Christ used with the women
of Samaria."
Mrs. Rayburn showed how inter-
ested this woman was because she left
her water pot and went into the city.
when this woman who did not know
Christ was interested, how interested
we women, who know the Messiah,
should be in seeing people saved.
God is spirit and should be worsh-
iped so. His love will brighten our
lives"
The speaker touched upon the
story of Robert Moffat, the great At
rican missionary. eve should not

concern in them, that we do not know
A very pertinent question was asked:
"Why do not women have time to
whether they are Christians or not"
culture their souls with Christianity"
She gave us the definition of Chris
tan in the Psalm 1872. In regard to
personal work the speaker gave us
the rule of the Samaritan woman when
she said "Come and see."
Christianity is active and we can
not be true representatives of our
Christ and not be about our Fathers
business" The meeting closed with
season of prayer.

FAREWELL PARTY TO JAMES
DALTON AT PUYALLUP, WASH.

About thirty-five of the friends Of
James Dalton gathered at the home Of
his daughter, Mrs. Fred Heating, on
18th Street N. w., Puyallup, WASH,
on the eve of Washington's birthday.
The event was complete surprise
to Mr.. Dalton and was planned by his
friends as farewell party to him
as he soon intends to leave for Colo
RADIO where he has land interests.
The guests soon after their arrival,
at seven o'clock, sat down to boun-
tiful several course dinner. After din
ner a delightful musical program was
given by Mr.. and Mrs. Van Zant Of
Tacoma. Five Hundred was played
and dancing INDUCED in until late
hour.
Henry and Loris Heating, the
grandsons of Mr.. Dalton, could not
pc present as they are both now serv-
ing under the colors. A touching
feature of the evenings entertain
ment was the reading of poem en-
titled "Dear Little Flag in the Win
dow" by Mr.. Fred Heating, father of
those two young soldier boys. This
poem his eldest son, Henry, had sent
him but few days before.

Buy Coal Now For
Next Winters Supply

The fact that spring is approach
ing will cause many people to not
worry about the coal situation and
will fail to buy coal. This is mis-
take. Everyone should begin i'm
mediately to store coal for the COM
ing winter season. There will be no
need for a repetition of last winters
experience if all who can will buy
the winter supply this spring and
summer.
The coal men will be glad to fill
your coal bin at any time, and if you

of having your coal. Look to the
coal supply and your supply is the
most important of all.

time to cause the wheat plant which

reports have come to this office today

"You ask how we may tell ROSTERS
from pullets?" queried the State
Food Administrator. "Well, about
the best method is the one advanced
by an old lady whom l knew in boy
hood. She said: Mix some meal
and water, and when the chickens are
a few days old, drop little in front
of them. If he eats it, it's rooster
if she eats it, it's a pullet.'"
