Other novelties are black taffeta

very deep on the skirt, like the pat

on the bell sleeves, which are a little
longer than elbow length.
A beautiful dress treated in this
way has the skirt mounted to low
waistline bodice cut in rounding line
ut the front and slightly pointed over
the hips, all the fullness being massed
at the sides in thick gathers. This
skirt is suspended over a foundation
of silver cloth which has black tulle
hem showing between the scallops of
the embroidered edge. The bodice,
which is of the taffeta. opens low In a

Rock Island passenger train No. 2
which left here Thursday afternoon
met with a mishap at Hutchinson the
same night. According to the ac-
counts in the Hutchinson Gazette
the train cut in half Missouri Pac-
ifc freight at the grade crossing in
the west Rock Island yards, derail-
ing the passenger engine and over
turning a car of coal and doing con-
siderable damage to the track which
was torn up for several rods. The
engineer of the Rock Island train
claims that his air brakes failed to
work. 1t was several hours before
the train was able to resume its
journey eastward. No one was
hurt.

INTERESTING SERVICE AT
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

The services at the Presbyterian
church last Sunday were of more
than usual interest. In the morning
Mr.. Barrier spoke on the subject of
Young People. He said that by far
the greatest asset of Liberal was
their young people, and that the
training of them was the people of
our city. The future depended not
upon our children but upon us for
they would conserve it as they were
trained. He made many suggestions
of things needed in our city to make
it an ideal place in which to rear
family for future usefulness.
The Promotion exercises in the
evening were very good. Over
twenty-five boys and girls were pro-
NOTED into higher departments. All
of these young people are to be
congratulated. Miss Young who had
charge of the exercised is to be con-
graduated on presenting such an
appropriated program. So many
being promoted bespeaks the flourish
ing condition of the Sunday school.

EightTOFifteen Per CentDeCIine Cover
ing Practically All Grades and Kinds
IS THE THIRD CUT BY DEALERS HERE
Drop Will Greatly Relieve Building
Operators Which Will Be lncreas-
ed From Now on to Help Out
Housing Conditions.

Conforming to the recent reduc-
ton in the wholesale lumber market
the local dealers announce today a
reduction in the retail price of lum-
Der of eight to fifteen per cent.
The cut today makes the third re-
duction made by the local dealers
since the high point was made last
spring in the wholesale market.
The smallest cut is on dimension.
The reduction cover practically all
kinds and grades of lumber. The
largest reduction being on flooring
and finish.
A reduction of eleven per cent is
also announced on the best grade of
shingles.
Building had already started up in
good shape before the announcement,
and now that material has been re-
duced in price it is likely that a great
era of building will come.
Liberal has never had enough resi-
dence or business houses, and this
condition will likely be relieved.

Boy Scouts of America-)
AMERICAN scoUTlNG's START

Everybody knows of the Boy Scouts,
but few people are aware that one
small boy in a crowded London street
Inadvertently planted the acorn that
has grown into that sturdy oak, the
Boy Scouts of America.
W. D. Boyce of Chicago in 1903. on
his way to certain destination in
London, lost his way in the devious
mazes of that city. Pausing in un-
certainty to get his bearings, he was
confronted by small boy who sa-
luted and asked politely If he might
be of service. Pleased by the lads
manner and grateful for the timely
offer of aid, Mr.. Boyce accepted the
lads guidance, and arrived at the goal
offered him shilling. To his amaze
ment the boy drew himself up, saluted
with dignity and replied that he was a
boy scout, and scout never took tips
for small deeds of courtesy. His
curiosity piqued by this response, the
American asked pertinent questions as
to boy scouts, of whom he knew moth
ing at the time. He was promptly
conveyed to the British scout head
quarters and introduced to Sir Robert
Baden-Powell
When Mr.. Boyce sailed for home he
brought with him a trunkful of scout
literature and determination that
American boys should have scouting
at once and effectively.
