Kansas Musical Comedy
Suggested By Topekan,
A Success On BroadlUoy
THAT Farm Out in Kansas the Song Hit, May Be
Adopted Officially Here-Appeal Was Made
by Phil Eastman.

with an armload of music. Its first
public rendition in Topeka will in all
probability be at the Kansas Day club
banquet.
Here are the words for the song as
written by Otto Harbach:
"That Farm Out in Kansas"
How / long for the simple song
OF that dear old Kansas farm:
The drone of bees in the locust trees,
And the cow-b bells wild alarm;
The pigeons coo and the glad halloo
OF the youngsters out at play;
The windmill's thump and the creaking
pump,
Helped to swell this roundelay.
Refrain
That farm out in Kansas, ah, that was the
In winter, the dances; the plowing in
The haying in summer, the pumpkins in
Your life was a hummer at each season s
And then the cows and the chickens,
The geese and the ducks
All raising the dickens with cackles and
A symphonic poem of infinite charm
Was life on that old Kansas farm.
Eastman's Letter to Cohan.
The following is the letter written to
Mr.. Cohan by Mr.. Eastman February
IL. 1920:
Mr. George NJ Cohan. Forty second and
Broadway. New York city.
My dear Mr.. COhan: Kansas needs your
genius.
The people of the Jayhawker state are
intensely loyal to their state, evidenced
by the fact that on the annual anniversary
of the admission of Kansas into the Union,
January %, formerly of Kansas people In
all of the larger cities. including New York,
gathered to celebrate that event, and cele-
brations are held thruout Kansas.
But at these celebrations there is no Kan
sas song that springs to the lips of the
people.
No state song has been written that is
not so top heavy that it is harder to sing
and remember than America.
If you should write Kansas song, SINH
lar to your Virgininn song, the people of
Kansas would be singing it on every pub
lie occasion and blessing the name of
Cohan.
I am going to assume that you will write
formation, facts, data and anything that
I can furnish that will help you. Then,
when the song is written we will feature
it at our annual Kansas Free Fair at To-
peka, not only in hopes of bringing you
financial returns, but to afford the people
or the state an opportunity to become
familiar with the composition.
OF course, 1T is understood that this is
not q series of letters. I am not writing
to other composers. only to you. If this
suggestion does not meet with your ap-
With anyone else, for L know of no one
who would put the right spirit and at
mosphere into such a song.
Very sincerely,
PHIL EASTMAN,
Secretary Kansas Free Fair.

Gas Distributing Companies
Subject to Penalties.
Some Real Sharp Teeth i'm Pub
lie Utility Bill.

There are to be some real sharp
teeth in the new public utilities bill.
Under provisions which may go into
the bill gas distributing and pipe line
companies will be subject to heavy
penalties for waste and leakage..Judge
clyde M. Reed of the court of indus
trial relations has estimated that pipe
line leakage is equal to heat units from
930,320 tons of coal year-or one-
fifth the states coal production.
One of the provisions which will
doubtless go into the bill for divorcing
the industrial court and public utilities
commission will be the granting of
power to the commission to fix penal
ties for failure to give service. The
bill will give to the commission au-
thority to investigate service provided
by public utilities and to penalize serv-
ice corporations where service is in
adequate.
To Affect Gas Companies.
Gas companies will be particularly
affected by provisions of the proposed
law. The penalty provision will be in
serted, it is reported. in order to pro-
tect against excessive leakage.
At the present time, according to
Judge Reed, the loss thru pipe line
leakage is equal to the loss of 930.32o
tons of coal a year. This loss amounts
to one-fifth of the annual coal produc-
ton from the Crawford-Cherokee
county coal field. Judge Reed esti-
mates that one-third of the population
of the state uses natural gas.

the appearance of the Scottish fight
ers in their uniforms, strange to this
section of ireland.
Suddenly a bomb was tossed from
a house. More bombs followed and
the Scots began fighting back.
The Irish supplemented their bomb
attack with revolver fire from the
houses and the Scots answered shot
for shot.
One soldier was wounded. The rifle
fire of the Scots was accurate and one
Irishman. rising to toss a bomb, was
shot dead. Several more were wound
ed. The attackers ventured into clos
er quarters and were captured.
Two houses were burned in the en-
gagement The Irish office did not
say the fires were started in reprisal,
but admitted the damage
The Highlanders were among the
regular troops rushed into Cork fol-
lowing the government declaration of
martial law. 1t said said to be their
first encounter with the Sim Fein

surprise they met the situation
quickly.
