NOW Is THE TIME TO Do THINGS

Do you want a hospital to be
erected in WaKeeney2 If you do
right now, and for the next few days,
is the time to show it in both a f1nan-
cia1 and sentimental way The prop
osition is at the critical stage just
now, but those who are pushing it are
going to do their best to get the SEN
timent of the people of WaKeeney
within the next few days. If that
sentiment shows favor and enthusi-
asm enough a more extensive effort
will be made. If the people show that
they do not want a hospital to be To-
Gated here and do not want to put up
the necessary cash, the subject will
be dropped for the present
The hospital mass meeting which
was held at the court room Monday
night was well attended. The re-
ports made by the committees were
as near complete as it was possible
for them to be. The Rev. Ma1tis and
Mother Helna, of Salina, were here
and presented the proposition which
is offered by the Episcopal church.
In the substance it was this: The
people of this vicinity to raise the
money and erect the building and
turn it over to the church Sisterhood
who would equip and maintain it and
should they ever fail to do so the
hospital would revert to the original
subscribers of the stock This prop
osItion is generally taken favorable
but there is some opposition to it. 1t
is the same kind of condition as
would be demanded by any other or
ganization which will agree to equip
and maintain hospital It is fact
which is not generally known but
hospital are not paying investment
for themselves yet they bring a great
deal of extra money and business in
to a city.
1t will take at least fifty thousand
dollars to erect a suitable hospital
building and if the people of Wa
Keeney want it badly enough that
amount can be raised. What are you
going to do about it?

For instance, all the newspaper will

The command mo seats was in
conformity with the determination
OF the president-elect to make it a
simple affair. His own idea was that
he might simply walk out on the
east steps Of the capitol and make
his little inaugural talk TO the people

was unnecessary to have an inaug-

PEACETIME ENGLAND
Midnight This Evening Is Time Set for Great Britain to Be at Peace With Her Enemies.

London, Aug. 31.-At midnight to- night England will be officially at peace with all her enemies during the world war with the exception of Tur- key. This date, formally terminating the technical state of war which has prevailed since the cessation of ac- tual hostilities, was fixed by an order in council on August l. In business and legal circles this official conclu sion of the struggle which actually ended two years ago is of much signi- ficance, but what the ordinary citizen will probably regard as it's most prac- tical effect will be the extension of the hours for dispensing liquor under the new licensing act, which super cedes the defense of the realm regu- lations which lapse with the end of hostilities. Some restrictions imposed by those regulations have, however, been embodied in other enactments, some of which are expected to be repealed soon.
