TO THE PEOPLE OF CENTER
TWP, STEVENS COUNTY

To set to rest any question about
matters connected with the proposed
construction of our road thru Stevens
NCounty, l have no hesitancy in pub
licly saying to you that the road
viii enter the county on che east
line of Center Township, proceeding
in a northwesterly direction to about
the center of the east sections of ID
or Is from whence it will proceed
due west on the half section line to
a point in the immediate vicinity of
Hugoton, where it will turn in a
northwesterly direction for distance
Of two or three miles when it will
again turn due west and continue on
a half section line to the Morton
County line. In getting the best
crossing of the river possible it may
become necessary for the engineers
to somewhat defect the line from
this route near the west county line.
Nowhere will the road touch any
other township in Stevens county.
A station including depot, side track
and stock yards will be located on
either section Ia, Is OF 16, as may
be agreed upon by the company and
the people of that vicinity.
A shipping station. will be located
about midway between this station
and Hugoton. 1t is hoped that local
interests will build elevators at both
stations.
Two stations with all suitable and
necessary facilities will be located
between Hugoton and the Morton
County line and it is hoped local in
terests will also build elevators at
these stations.
We will use 60-pound rails, 2,640
ties to the mile, standard telephone
line, suitable water stations, depot
and all other modern appurtenances
which will create a road satisfactory
to everyone. Equipment will be am
pie and such as is used by standard
roads in such service.
We shall not call for the bonds
until we know we can and will be-
yond reasonable doubt be able to
promptly build across the entire
township. Our work in Seward
County, which will be seen by a large
number of your people before we
reach Stevens County will speak for
itself and show you exactly what will
be done in your county.
Frankly it is a matter of regret
to US that we have been obliged to
hold second election. The statute
used in the first election is the one

Sour Milk Biscuits

The sour milk biscuit recipe calls
for two and one-quarter cups flour,
one-third teaspoon of soda, salt,
threequarters cup sour milk, one
heaping tablespoon shortening and
one-half teaspoon baking powder.
Knead as little as possible; cut and
fold like Parker house rolls and bake
in brisk oven.
Breakfast No. 2
Cracked Wheat With Cream
Grilled Bacon
Waffles or Buckwheat Cakes

children piece-mealing from the tree
all morning, and breakfast and din
ner coming so close together, the lat
ter might in some cases be dispensed
with, provided the first meal is made
substantial enough. There is sug-
gestion which may be hooted at, but
which would save all of us that Pull
man car feeling which follows the or
binary day of too much feasting.
Why not spend part of Christmas
eve decorating the table for the
morning meal? 'Twould be quite
change to have a simple, attractively
ornamented board, in contrast to the
tinsel, ribbon-littered affair from
which we usually grab bite of toast
or a muffin A nice idea for the girls
Of the family to adopt is to slip down
town and purchase roll Of bleached
cotton. This should be pulled apart
and some Of it formed into a fluffy
round SNOWFALL about sixteen inches
in diameter. Smaller balls are made
for each persons plate, and in the
center of these may be placed anus
ing gifts having to do with intimate
family Jokes which all Of us have,
even the best of families! Sprigs of
holly and some diamond dust COM
plete the work, and how little it is
after all. If there is time and
enough energy, there is no prettier
sight than a few tree boughs laden
with artificial snow and placed about
the dining room and in dark unlight-
ed corners of the house. At little
distance they look very much like
real ones and they are change from
evergreen boughs and red ribbons
with which we are wont to embellish
our windows and walls.
A more pretentious table, appro-
pirate for a buffet breakfast only,
has for its foundation a cover and
balance of white cheesecloth made to
fit the table and hang over almost to
the floor. Cotton is applied to the
top in smooth layer, but the real
art comes in draping the sides, icycle-
like, in overlapping pieces Of cotton.
A small tree should be placed in the
center and hung in popcorn and
cranberries. II one is serving eggs
in cups, a clever notion is to cover
them with cozies Of cotton with
sprig Of cedar on the top.
A few collections Of simple, whole
some breakfast and some tested rec
ipes are given herewith.
Southern Breakfast
Apples Stuffed With Sausages
Sour Milk Biscuits
Jelly or Grape Conserve
Escalloped Potatoes
Coffee Cocoa
The apples should be cored and
the sausage inserted in the cavity.
Place in pan with one-half cup water,
little brown sugar and bake for al
most an hour, or until apples are
done. Garnish with parsley.

we used in Pratt, Edwards, Pawnee,
Rush and Ellis counties and never
was it questioned once by even the
Auditor of the State or the attorneys
of the bond purchasers.
Because of other and possibly con-
flicting interests it was not advisable
that we should at that time enter
litigation even tho we were impor-
tuned by large number of citizens
of Stevens County to do so.
1t is our purpose to begin grading
at Liberal Christmas Day, and not
stop until we have reached the Colo
RADIO line, track laying to start as
soon as we have up enough grade to
warrant start and to haul your
1920 wheat crop.
Yours very truly,
o. P. BYERS, President.

The Christmas Table

Z = Z = Z Z = = . = = + + + i
once again we have gone around
" the calendar and find ourselves
at the place where we must finger
all the books we know, to find out
just the proper things to have and
do on Christmas day. Somehow there
is so much to think about during the
year, that when we actually come to
it, we are at loss to think of any
thing concrete. This year, as never
before, we are willing to accept sug-
gestions for decorating and particu-
larly for food where we have never
done so before. In those tasty dim
ming days before the war we just had
and did everything we pleased, not
regarding overly much the rights or
happiness of others, nor wondering,
beyond the mere act of buying, where
it all came from. Then when the
holocaust made us stop in our wild
living and think-when we were
measured for our sugar, you might
say, and doled out flour for our daily
bread, we were taken aback and like
lot of frightened children, we sim
ply obeyed the law and ate what was
on our plates. That brings US to this
year, perhaps to the beginning of
new era Of sensible celebration; let
US hope so. We shall return more to
the old way of observing the happy
day, but it will be tempered by our
years of conservation and consequent
good health.
Much has been said in seasons past
concerning the Christmas dinner, its
favors and courses. This little ar
ticle will have to do with the Christ
mas breakfast, and will attempt to
