RIGHT OF WAY NOT
TO HAVE FEDERAL AID

Plans for hard surfacing roads
along the Union Pacific have rur
against a decision by the government
that federal aid will not be given
for any part of the road that is on the
claimed right-of-way of the Union
Pacific This decision effects the
Golden Belt road. Many places near
Abilene as we'll as all along the
route, the Golden Belt is on the I'm
ion Pacific right-of-way
An effort will be made to get con-
gressional legislation that will give
the highway a permanent right to
its location. The war department
has also given notice that the fort
to fort road is not considered of
enough military necessity for the
to construct it, but the
efforts of the counties to hard sur
face it are commended 1t is not
thought this will affect the granting
of federal aid except as to portions
on the railroad territory.

raising the money for the Red Cross,
the conference succeeded in putting
new pep into them.

April Snow Damaged
Phones Over $4,000

While, the range of destruction tC
the telephone, electric and telegraph
wires and poles was not as extensive
in Fridays storm as the sleet storm
two months ago, the damage will
amount to $4,000.
The larger part,of the damage Fri
day night was done between Solomon
and Junction City while the sleet
storm tore down wires and poles
from Brookville to Manhattan East
and west of Abilene the telephone
wires are down and many poles are
broken off at the ground. In the ac-
comparing photograph taken near
Solomon, Of damage done in the re-
cent sleet storm, it is easily seen
how service is cut off. However, the
experienced workers for the United
Telephone Company will soon have
the wires up again and service re-
stored.
At 1915 Friday night, large
limb from tree at the court house

TO Abilene and all electric current to
Abilene was cut off. Current was
from the Rocky Ford plant

: An enthusiastic meeting of the
state guard members was held at the
court house last evening. 1t was de-
cided that the guard will march at
the raising of Abilene's Honor Flag
on Friday The companies will not
attempt to give an exhibition drill at
that time as they have not had an
opportunity to practice as yet.
At present 1853 persons have signed
up for the guards. This is 32 more
than is necessary for the two units
which were to be formed in Abilene.
Beloit has three units of the state
guard so why not Abilene. If num-
ber of the farmers become interested
| 1t is probable that a third unit will
be formed here. Even If the extra
unit is not formed, the extra men
will be used with the other two units.
Reports from Chapman show that
the town there is enthusiastic and
two units of the state guard will be
formed there. 1t is now time for
Herington to start some action.
Persons who have joined the state
guard organization since the list was
published Monday are: Arthur Hurd,

A farmer, not one of the wealth
lest in that community, called at a
Solomon bank last week for 800
Liberty Loan bond After he had
written his check and handed it to
the cashier he asked IL there were
any poor people in Solomon. When
told that there were a few he asked
the cashier to give the bond to some
needy and worthy family. He did
not even designate to whom 1t should
be given.
