WHAT ABOUT GAS?

Up to this time we have heard Of
no move to pipe the gas from the
Traders well to Liberal.
Cold weather is almost upon us.
Coal is scarce, already at least one
dealer here had been out of coal.
The price is going up on account
of the increase in freight rates and
the increase in miners wages-like-
wise possibly desire on the part OF
the operators to make money"
Out there four and a half miles
is we'll which will supply the town
with fuel for heating and cooking
purposes, and all that is needed is
a distributing system to make it avail
able to the people of Liberal.
We should have this gas piped to
town. Surely there is enough CAPT
tai here to put the proposition across
if a rate sufficient to guarantee a
return on the money is allowed.
Liberal must have this gas. Just
how we do not know, but it is an
economic waste to pay freight on coal
when we can pipe our fuel four
and half miles.
Let's get something started right
away, as the coal situation is most
uncertain this winter While a few
have stored coal that is no guarantee
that there will be enough.
Let's have natural gas to burn this
winter. Prompt action right now will
make this possible.

USE-MoRE-MILK
WEEK, OCT. Ills.

The week of October 11-16 has
been set aside as "Use- More Milk"
week, for the entire state of Kansas.
During this week an educational
campaign to set forth the value of
milk as food for growing children
will be put on in every school dis
trict in the state.
According to public health officials
nearly 80 per cent of all the children
in the United States are underweight.
A countrywide survey in Marion
county, Kansas, last fall, showed that
SO per cent of all the school children
in that county were underweight.
A test was made in five of the
schools of the county to note the
effect of milk in bringing the children
up to normal. In every school where
the experiments were conducted, the
children gained weight. In one Of
the schools fifteen out of twenty-four
pupils in the first, second and third
grades were underweight. After
three months of using milk, it was
found that only three of the children
were underweight. Nine had attain
ed standard weight, and three had
become slightly overweight. One of
the three still underweight was only
l per cent below normal. This
means that 80 per cent of those who
were underweight had attained
standard or become slightly over
weight.
1t is believed that the percentage
of children underweight in many
other counties is as great as in
Marion county, and the "Use-More-
Milk" campaign is being put on to get
every child in the state to use milk
in its diet as means of promoting
normal growth and development.

KIMBALL BUYS THE
BEAVER DEMOCRAT
With A. W. Cox Former Liberal
Man lnvades Another Beaver
County Town.

A. l.. Kimball, who was a Liberal
printer and Linotype operator for
several years, and who a few months
ago purchased the Forgan Eagle, has
formed partnership with A. W. Cox
of Columbus, Ohio, and purchased
the Beaver Democrat. Messrs. Kim
ball and Cox will continue the pub
LEGATION of both papers in their res
pective offices.
Kimball improved the Forgan
Eagle about nine hundred per cent
in few weeks time, and while there
is not the room for improvement in
the Democrat, he will likely show
some changes for the better.
We are not well acquainted with
Mr.. Cox, but we do know "Bill'
Kimball, we know he is a wolf for
work, sticker for perfection and
a hustler, and we confidently expect
to see him the "Big Gun" in the
Beaver county newspaper field before
many moons.
Kimball was a part owner in the
Liberal Democrat for almost a year,
and had charge of the mechanical
department for several months, and
when it comes to getting out the
work and doing it right no one has
anything on him.
He believes in a square deal, get
ting what a piece of work is worth
and giving value received, and Beav-
er Citl citizens will do we'll to give
him chance to show what he is cap
able of doing.
Here's wishing the new firm all
success.

HOUSE AND FURNITURE BURNS

w. C. Farmer who lives between
Liberal and Tyrone is having more
than his share of i'll luck lately. A
short time ago he and Mrs. Farmer
were in an automobile accident, in
which he was more or less injured
and Mrs. Farmer was so seriously
injured that she was confined in the
hospital for some time.
Tuesday Mr.. and Mrs. Farmer went
to Tyrone, and during their absence
their house and all contents were
burned.
They carried some insurance on the
building, but we could not learn what
their loss was.
They have a lot of friends who will
sympathize with them in their loss.

FAMILY MAKING COAST TO
COAST TRIP IN MOTORCYCLE
Carrying Camping Outfit in Side Car
Sleep and Eat in the Open
Stopped at Liberal Last
Night

Parked among the cars along Kan.
sas avenue last night, between Sec.
ond and Third streets, was Hender.
son Motorcycle with a tandem seat
and car along side. In the car or
top of bedding sat bull dog of un.
certain appearance.
The owners of the motorcycle were
liking cup of coffee at the Pullman
Cafe, where reporter of the Daily
Democrat found them.
They were Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Nc
Kendry, and their small son, red and
burned from many miles riding
against the winds. Mrs. McKendry
wore corduroy trousers, for she
rides the rear seat on the motorcycle
and son shares the cor with Spot, the
brindle bull dog.
The family left Los Angeles.
Calf, their home two weeks ago, on
a cross continent run to Washington,
D. C, where they will spend the
winter with relatives.
When asked the average run per
day, Mr.. Kendry Said they made
100 miles. They make about 80 miles
with / gallon of gas on bad roads
between so and 60 miles per gallon
on good roads.
The weight of the machine, includ-
ing baggage and passengers is 400
pounds.
The speedometer registered 1860
miles at this point. This is not quite
half way on the long journey.
Mrs. McKendry said they have
come through miles Of water on bad
roads, far west of here, and they
think the roads splendid in this part
Of the country.
They carry 410 shotgun and kill
all the wild game they can eat. They
sleep on the ground at night, and
build a campfire for most of their
meals. All were robust looking and
evidently the outdoor life agrees with
them.
In leaving, Mr.. Kendry said they
expected to take the same route on
the return trip about time next year.
Their experiences are being watched
with interest by the Henderson
Motorcycle people. Their photos and
writeup of the proposed trip hav-
ing already been published in the
Motorcycle Journals.
1t is necessary, they said, to
wrap the dog at night as he was
a California dog and unused to cold
weather.
The family were very interesting,
having much to relate concerning
their travels and places visited along
route.
