AMERICAN LEGION
ELECTS OFFICERS
Decided to Organize Basket Ball
Team, Erect Club House and
Swat Bolshevists.

The Liberal Post of the American
Legion met Monday night, January
5th and transacted all of the business
that had accumulated during the
holidays. The most important of all
the transactions was the election of
the officers for the Liberal Post. All
of thse officers were elected to hold
their office for one year as per the
Leglon's National Constitution. The
following capable young men were
elected by popular vote of all the
members: Post Commander, Mark
H. Perrin; Vice-Post Commander,
Eugene R. Martin; Post Adjutant,
w. B. King; Post Finance Officer,
Erwin s. Dir; Post Historian, B. W.
Wood; Post Master-at-Arms, Frank
Pile; Post Chaplain, Rev. M. o.
Wolfe.
Rev. Wolfe accepted the honorary
title of Post Chaplain after being Sc
lected by unanimous vote of the
Legion. This office in this case, is
an honorary one and the Legion con-
siders that it is very capably filled.
A resolution was passed by the
members and sent to the Legislature
now in session recommending more
stringent laws for the protection of
the state of Kansas against Bolshev-
ism. All the American Legion Posts
in the state brought this question be-
fore their meetings, and decided
whether or not to recommend such a
law.
A basket ball team for the Legion
was suggested and met with favor.
A. 2. McHargue was chosen athletic
director and he promises to build up
a real fast team within the next few
weeks. 1t is understood that the
team will be prepared to meet all
comers and that letter sent to Mr..
McHargue will give all outsiders the
, highest of satisfaction.
By unanimous vote it was decid-
ed by the Legion that a club house
for the service men should be erect.
ed at once.
The organization at Liberal con-
tains young men who have many
times proved their worth and mettle
and in their undertakings, success is
wished by everyone.

l. GREENBERG BUYS THE
FEINBERG CLOTHING STORE
Took Possession of the Business Jam
uary 1st. Is Experienced
Clothing Man.

After something like seven years
residence in Liberal M. Fienberg, the
clothing merchant, has sold his bust
ness and will locate elsewhere.
l. Greenberg is the new owner,
having come here from Wichita sew
eral weeks ago to make the deal.
He has been acting as manager of
one of the larger stores in Wichita
and has a large experience in the
clothing line.
The Feinberg store has always en-
joyed good patronage even tho the
many interests of Mr.. Feinberg has
made it impossible for him to give
the store his personal attention, and
under the management Of Mr.. Green
berg, whose pleasing manner will
make him friends quickly, it should
enjoy even a better business.
While regretting the removal Of
Mr.. Feinberg the Democrat extends
a welcome to Mr.. and Mrs. Greenberg
to the town and extends the wish
that they will find the town to their
liking and the business all they could
wish.

Surveying to Start as Soon as Weather Condi-
tions Permit. Contract For Grading
Has Been Let.
WILL OPEN VAST TERRITORY TO Libel
Construction To Colorado Line Assured.-Will
Be in Operation by October First if Pres
ent Plans Work Out.

The first dirt was thrown for the
new Kansas & Oklahoma railroad on
New Years day in Liberal with ap-
propriate ceremonies, and another
step in the advancement of South
west Kansas was taken.
The ceremony was in charge Of
the Liberal Chamber Of Commerce,
and W. H. Feather acted as master
of ceremonies.
At the appointed time large team
of horses were hitched to a plow
which was guided by Chas. Summers,
the lines being held by j. F. Fuest.
Mr.. Feather spoke a few words and
introduced Fred Byers, of Indiana, a
son of o. P. Byers, promoter of the
road. Mr.. Byers made good talk
on the future of the country as
viewed by a stranger. He brought
out a thought in this connection that
was new to many, and was that when
one came to this section from the
thickly populated states of the east
and saw all the untitled land he could
hardly imagine the future of the
towns when all was settled and under
cultivation.

AND OPEN
MUFFLERS WANING

Since the city council became more
strenuous in their prosecutions for
violations of the ordinance against
speeding and running with open
muffers, and many fines were paid,
we have noticed that there is a great
deal less of both offenses.
We occasionally see someone who
manages to slip by the police and
make a little extra speed, and once
in while we hear an open muffer,
but the practice is nowhere near as
common as formerly.
1t is hoped that the time will come
when all are conversant with the law
and observe it but it is likely that
there will have to be a few more
fines before everyone will believe the
authorities mean business. How
ever we are thankful for the change
that has already taken place and
commend those responsible therefor.

BUSINESS MEN BOOSTING
THE HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL
Are Buying Space Literally to Make
1t a Success. Will be First
One For Liberal

Present indications are that the
first High School Annual to be issued
by Liberal High School will be a
good one and in every way worthy
the town. Actual work began a
few days ago and the boys having the
work in charge are elated at the sue
ces thus far. They have visited a
number of the business places and
are receiving much encouragement
from the business men. They report
that they are having but little trouble
in selling space once the character
of the work is understood.
Just how good an Annual will be
printed depends upon the support
given in the way of advertising, and
the results so far would indicate that
it would be possible to get out a
first class book.
If you have not yet been visited
give the boys all the encouragement
you can as the work will be a big
boost for Liberal, which up to the
present time is the only town of its
class which has not issued High
School Annual.

THE SOLDIERS MEMORIAL

Some time ago the Democrat
brought up the matter of a perman-
ent Memorial for the soldiers from
Seward county who died in the serv-
i've or fell in BEETLE. We had numer-
GUS inquiries in regard to the matter
and promised to get busy and start
the movement, but owing to condi-
lions over which we had no cort"ci
we found it impossible to give the
proposition the time it would have
demanded. We believe it is well that
this was so. ""'
In the notice of the meeting of the
American Legion we note that the
Legion is contemplating the estab-
lishment of club house or communi-
ty meeting house, place where the
boys may meet their friends and
which might be used as a meeting
place on special occasions Of a public
nature.
Now, instead of raising marble
or granite shaft as a memorial to our
soldier boys, why not build this build
ing as a memorial hall and dedicate it
to the memory of the soldiers and
the use of the American Legion?
Suitable tablets in the halls of the
building would bear the names of
the departed soldiers, and would
place them in a more conspicuous
place than possible with monument
and serve to keep the memory of
their sacrifice ever before US.
Seward county can do this easily
and thus honor those who could moi
return as we'll as those who fought
the fight and came back to us.

TAYLOR & GRIFFITH BUY
LINCOLN AVENUE TAILORS
T. S. Locke Sells Business to Two
Experienced Young Men Who
Are Now In Charge.

A deal involving one of Liberals
well known business places was
closed the last of the week when
James Taylor Jr. and Lewis F. Grit
fifth purchased the Lincoln Avenue
Tailor Shop of T. S. Locke.
Mr.. Tailor is a son of James M.
Taylor, of Liberal, and with his
brother at one time conducted the
business under the firm name of Tay-
lor Bros. He sold the business when
school started last fall.
Mr.. Griffith comes from Coldwater
and is brother of w. V. Griffith of
the Griffith & Baughman firm.
Both gentlemen are experienced
in the business and both are hustlers
That they will succeed is a foregone
conclusion.
This has long been one of the good
business institutions of the town, do
ing a high grade of work, and the
standard will no doubt be raised un-
der their management.
The Democrat wishes them all
kinds of success.
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1920-01-08

AS he concluded his remarks Mr..
Fuest gave the team the "high ball, !"
Mr.. Summers clutched the handles of
the plow and the first dirt for the
new railroad was turned.
Both Mr.. Summers and Mr.. Fuest
were pioneers in this section and
have always been consistent boost
ers for the country. The honor of
having turned the first dirt on the
new railroad was justly conferred
when they were chosen.
Mr.. Byers was followed by Rev.
Miles o. Wolfe, pastor of the Baptist
church, who had words of praise for
Liberal and the Southwest and who
expressed great faith in the future of
the town and country.
While the new road is going tc

SNOW STORM DELAYED
SPUDDING OF OIL WELL
Beaver Oil & Gas Company Intended
to Start Drill Today, But
Snow Prevented.

After many obstacles had been
surmounted everything was in readi-
ness to start the drill in the test of
the Beaver Oil & Gas Company near
Guymon, when the snow storm ar
rived and delayed the operation.
A party from Liberal had intended
to go to Guymon to see the start but
the trip is postponed until weather
conditions are more favorable.
The starting of this test marks the
triumph over seeming impossible
circumstances. The entry of the
United States in the war caused the
project to drag more than year
and when conditions became such
that it was possible to finance the
project material and drillers were al
most impossible to secure. Officers
of the company and Mr.. ]. B. Craig
in particular, have made numerous
trips picking up casing and material
wherever it could be found, and two
strings of casing, together with the
necessary tools and equipment, are
on the ground ready for the test.
At this time it looks like this would
be the first test to be drilled in this
section. The company is composed
of men of influence and high stand
ing in the financial world and that
they will see the we'll thru to COM
pletion is a foregone conclusion.
Only about $4,000 remains to be
raised to complete the well, allowing
nice margin for accidents, and this
will soon be disposed of once the
drill is actually started.
The stock of this company repre-
sents the highest degree of safety in
the wildcat game, and the only
chance one takes is that the field will
prove to be dry. The we'll will be
drilled and every safeguard possible
will be used. The money will be
properly handled and made to pay
full dollars worth, and with the
excellent geological reports we be-
lieve the public is justified in taking
stock and helping with the project
That there is oil and gas here il
not doubted by those best qualified
to judge an dthe development of tn,
property Of the Beaver Oil & GA
Company will in reality be the de
velopment of this section of Kansas
and Oklahoma.
We hope to be able to report mex
week that we have seen the drill star
and give some inside information
concerning the company and its pros
poets.
