HEATING MOVES TO KANSAS
AVENUE NEAR POSTOFFICE
Popular Plumbing and Sheet Metal
Works in a New and Better
Location.

The Liberal Sheet Metal Works of
which B. E. Heating is the owner,
was moved the last Of the week to the
room recently vacated by the Bedford
& Clark furniture store on North
Kansas avenue three doors south of
the postoffice.
This change came as a sort of sur
prise to the older of our inhabitants.
Mr.. Heating had been in the location
on East Second for something like
fifteen years and has always enjoyed
a large business. He was looked up
on as a sort of fixture in that loca-
ton. Speaking of the change Mr..
Heating says that he can see nothing
ahead but good growth for Liberal
and good business the coming year,
and that he desired to have more
room in order to carry larger stock
and be in position to take care of
his share of the business.
The past few years have seen many
changes in the business of Liberal. AS
near as we can remember Heating is
the only one of those who were here
when we first landed in Liberal who
has not either changed locations or
erected new buildings. This was not,
of course, because he was not pro-
gressive. Up to this time he has had
sufficient floor space to take care of
the big business he has always han
died, and locations have been difficult
to secure. AS in the old adage "the
world has beaten a path to his door"

OIL WELL HAS SUSPENDED
DRILLING FOR THE WINTER
H. II. McQuigg Returns to California
to Stay Uuntil Drilling Is
Resumed.

H. H. McQuigg, petroleum engineer
for the Traders Oil Company, which
is drilling deep test on the John L..
Boles farm west of Liberal, has gone
to California and the rig has shut
down.
While it is not officially announced,
the best information we can secure
is that drilling will not be resumed
until the weather turns warm in the
spring.
There is much speculation as to the
result of the test so far. Just how
deep the we'll is cannot be learned,
but it must be below the S,000-foot
mark. Some persons are of the opin-
ion that the we'll began to show good
and was shut down until more leases
could be secured. Since the PROPOSE
ton is not local institution there is
no way of getting information.
The test was started without any
stock being sold here and those in
charge are keeping their own coun-
ell,

GOOD ROADS A SAFE BET
ALLEN TELLS GOVERNORS
Experience Overseas Has Convinced
Men of the Absolute Necessity of
Hard Surfaced Highways.

Washington, Dec. 21.-Henry j.
Allen climbed aboard a train last
night, the nose of which is now point
ed toward Kansas, where Mr.. Allen
will be inaugurated governor January
10. In the three short weeks he has
been back from Europe, Mr.. Allen has
had time to run out to Kansas to veri-
fly all the astonishing stories of ma
jorities he heard of at the New York
dock and seeing that this governor
ship job was no idle trench rumor, to
hurry back East for brief intensive
course in the event of being governor.
This school for governors was held
at Annapolis this week with forty
two experienced instructors and four
teen students, who as governors-elect
have listened to the forty-two COVER
nors tell about it.
Mr.. Allen was neither at the foot
nor at the head of his class. Kansas
has a right to know about his report
cards.
In current domestic politics he
graded low, but he raised his grades
to the passing point when he gave an
intelligent answer to the ever reiter-
ated question:
Q.MHow to lure the soldier vote.
A.-Build good roads.
Mr.. Allen said the soldiers will re-
turn with a great diversity of opinion
on many political subjects, but they
will return with single mind on the
subject of good roads.
No question exists in Mr.. Aliens
mind but that the permanent roads of
France won the war. The men of the
expeditionary force generally appreci-
ate this, what is more to the point, ev-
cry single one of the more than 2 mil
lion men has had personal contact
with the convenience of these Won
derful roads of France and has last
ingly imprinted in his mind the diff
ference between rock and air.
Is it any wonder Mr.. Allen will Ego
strong on good roads in the first mes
sage to Kansas. Not a hit or miss
affair, but real road program.
And to all the good roads in the
United States of the past and the
present he brings a message of cheer.
The lethargy of the past cannot with
stand the attitude of the more than
2 million good roads missionaries who
will be coming back from France.
So Governor-elect Allen puts the
question to Kansas in time to stop
dabbling at roads building.
1t is the safest of bets there will be
a mighty firm Eyes" in the next two
years.

"JIM" HINCHMAN LANDS A

"Jim" Hinchman, who came here
