"What a government is costing 10

''The real test rs what service is rem

money expended. Some questions that
you should answer are. how effi-
cIently are your streets being cleaned
Is lhe milk fed to your babies clean
are your death rates rising or fallinE'
what is the nature of your public con-
tracts, what are your police doing are
your, firemen actively engaged In work
TO prevent fires. The answers TO these
questions viii always give an indica'

where they attended the Hays Nor
NAL and they are loud in their praise
of the institution. They have atten-
ded the Normals at Emporia, Kansas
and Boulder, Colorado, and they
are of the opinion that the Hays
school is superior to either. They
say that on account of the smaller
enrolment at Hays, they get better
instruction than in the larger schools,
and as the Hays school is western
institution with more favorable con-
ditions, it would be good idea FOR
the folks here who desire to attend

wARFEL STILL CONFIDENT

E. c. Warfel, formerly of Liberal
but now in the Texas oil fields, was
a visitor here last week and made a
location for another oil well.
Mr.. Warfel had but little to say
regarding his visit, but let it be
known that he had not lost bit of
faith in the Liberal field as an oil
producing territory.
The Democrat banks strongly on
Mr.. Warfels opinion, for, according
to our idea, he is one of the best
geologists in the country and his
writings have proven out in several
instances. Warfel says the oil is
here. the only thing necessary to
get 1t being to drill deep enough
and open it up. He predicts good
things for the Seward County Oil
& Gas Company test north Of Lib

Edgerly and Associates
Hauling Rig to New
/. .a......' ore Location

The oil well which was, to have
been drilled east of Liberal, is, for
the present, at least, thing of the
past, and the outfit is being taken
to location four miles east and
three. and half miles north of
Hugoton, in Stevens county, where
a location has been made by E. G.
Warfel, a well-known geologist, for
merly of Liberal.
The test is to be drilled by R. H.
Edgerly and associates. The tim
bers for the rig are being hauled
to the location and Mr.. Edgerly has
gone to Wichita to ship the machin-
cry and casing and employ the rig
builders.
Several thousand acres of leases
have been thrown into this block
and Mr.. Edgerly says drilling will
begin just as soon as the rig is
ready.
The exact location is section 90
1928 Stevens county, and, accord
ing to Mr.. Warfel, the geological
structure is excellent. Mr.. Edgerly
and those associated with him, have
been working hard on this PROPOSE
tion and have a nice block Of acre
age to work on.
