AFTER 4 YEARS SERVICE

"Hello, folks, you may start cook
ing because Pm leaving New York
Tuesday at p. M, arriving in Lib
eral Thursday, if don't miss my
train.-Elmer."
The above message was received
Wednesday by Mr.. and Mrs. W. c,
Greed of 1O2 South Grant avenue,
and was one of the most pleasant
messages ever received by them.
Elmer finished his schooling at the
age of IL, and Immediately enlisted
in the service. He rose rapidly and
for sometime has been doing cleri-
cal work for the major of the post.
Previous to this, he was with the
Peace Mission, and had the opportu-
nifty of becoming well acquainted
with former President Wilson and
other prominent men. It has been
an experience well worth while, but
he will no doubt be glad to again
live in the. good old u. s. A., and
eat some of mothers cooking.
Friends of the family rejoice with
them on his safe return and excellent
record. ",

The Liberal Board of Trade had
very interesting meeting Saturday
evening at the Cimarron Hotel, and
banquet was served to the mem
bers and visitors.
A. E. Taylor resigned from the
presidency, and Chas. Summers was
elected to the vacancy. Mr.. Nell
benny, who is soon to leave for Colo
RADIO, also resigned as secretary, and
W. L. Excl was selected for the place.
A goodly number of the members
from the surrounding towns were
present and pleasant and profita-
Bile evening WIS spent.
Matters of interest to the grain
dealers were discussed and espec-
tally the matter of threatened car
shortage. After considerable dis
cussion, the following resolution was
adopted:
Whereas The members of the
Liberal Board of Trade met in as
sembly with the local dealers of the
Southwest part of Kansas
Realizing First, that the largest
wheat crop ever known in this part
of the country is now being harvest
ed, and ready for movement, and
Second, large portion of our old
crop of both wheat and kafir is yet
in the. country;
And whereas-to properly move
this said enormous amount of grain
to terminal markets and mills, it will
take at least an average of fifty
grain cars week for each and ev!

southwest part of the state.
And whereas-present supply Of
cars is inadequate, and unless quick 4
and efficient action on the part of
the transportation companies is taken
we are facing an acute car shortage
at the very beginning of this move
ment.
We, therefore, most earnestly beg
your immediate attention and direct
action in taking what steps you may
deem necessary to relieve this situa-
ton.

H. W. MAGRUDER TO
LEAVE LIBERAL
Has Responsible Position With
Large Company With Head
quarters at Abilene

H. W. Magruder announces that
on July 18th he will sever his con-
nection with the Liberal Light, Ice
& Power Company, and go to Abil-
enc where he will be connected with
the management Of the Riverside
Light G. Power Company.
This company has % stations
around Abilene, and is one of the
strongest in the country. They have
been trying to induce him to take a
position, with them for some time
and finally made him an offer which
he could not afford to turn down.
1t is with much regret that the
Democrat tells of the departure of
Mr.. Magruder from Liberal. He
has been identified with every
movement looking to the advance
pent of the town since it first start
ed on the upgrade, and has spent
much time and effort to that end.
Mr.. Magruder established the cleo
trio light and ice plant here when
Liberal scarcely Justified the in
vestment, but he has pulled it thru
the discouraging periods in the
towns history and has brought it
to successful condition. His last
act of Importance was the move to
install the new 365 horse power Die
sci engine now on the tracks here,
and when this is started no town will
have a better plant than Liberal.
Mr.. Magruder helped organize the
Liberal Chamber of Commerce and
was its president for several years.
He was active in the Great South
west Association, the Fort to Fort
Highway association, holding re-
sponsible positions in both orgniza-
tions. Besides these he is recognized
in the world of Electrical oraniza-
tions, being an officer of Che Ma
tional Electric Light Association
1t is going to be difficult matter
to get along without Magruder and
we certainly congratulate Abhline
on securing him as citizen. 1t is
his nature to boost and he knows.
most valuable consideration. We
wish him well.

TEXAS COUNTY IS
ANXIOUS FOR ROAD.
Commissioners Appropriate For The
Right-of-Wsy Road
to Line

In a letter to Liberal business
men, F. Hiner Dale, secretary Of
the Good Roads, Club of Guymon,
gives the Information that the Com
missioners of Texas County, Okla
homa have agreed to an appropri-
alton for the right of way, paral-
ing the Rock Island through Texas
county to the Kansas line, providing
the Seward county commissioners
will agree to build the road into
Liberal.
This proposition was talked con-
aderably few months ago but
definite action delayed. Now that
the Texas county fellows have set
the pace it would seem that Seward
could hardly afford to lie down and
let it go by the board.
The idea is to buy enough land
along the Rock Island to construct
road, which is already a part Of
the Camp Funston-Fort Bliss road.
This road would bring lot of traf-
fic through Liberal and mean lot
to the town. "a
Eventually this road will be con-
structed to parallel the Rock Island
east to Hutchinson, and possibly to
Kansas City.
are unlimited and Seward county
The possibilities of such road
should get busy right now on the
matter. Even if no eastern extern
sion is planned for several years,
this road reaching into Liberals
wholesale territory to the southwest
is reason for its being builded.

WILL RIVAL THE
SANTA FE TRAIL
Movement To Build A New Highway
To The Colorado
Country

On account of the rain and floods
of couple of weeks ago, news Of
the road meeting at Woodward i.
,megre.
The meeting was called for the
purpose Of mapping a new highway
to Colorado, from Woodward thru
Beaver, Forgan, Liberal on to Sa-
tanta. Thence west to New Ulysses
Johnson City and TWO Buttes.
Anyone with knowledge of the
country to be traversed will instant
ly recognize the possibilities of such
a route and the east with which it
can be constructed and maintained
With the exception of very few
bad places the route is already one
of the best in the country and has
been much used in its present CO.
dition and the present condition. of
the Santa Fe Trail is making it
more popular.
On account of the floods in Colo
RADIO and adjoining territory in
Kansas, the Santa Fe Trail is not in
the best of condition for travel and
will not be for a year or so. Then
many sections of the trail have been
torn up to permit further work,
which is not conducive to satisfac-
tory travel.
Going north from Liberal to Sa-
tanta, and then on to New Ulysses
one encounters a minimum of bad
roads. The road north from Liberal
to the river is OF the best by any
means but the Commissioners are
determined to make a road of it
before long. South of Beaver there
are also some places which need
continual watching, ~but the great
length of the road and the COM
paratively few bad places will make
it popular once it is marked and
made known to the tourists.
Liberal should get in on this prop
osition with all possible vim and
help to put it over, and assist in
every way to get the road marked
and in condition.

makes it impossible to close, AS a
matter of accommodation to rIer-

introductory.
HOW IT HAPPENED

Troops Two and Three, of Liber-
al Kansas, were only partially COM
pleteJ and were not making any
great headway toward that end.
Early in the summer of 1920, Mr..
John W. Baughman, prominent
business man of Liberal, and a lover
of boys, also knowing something of
the value of the Boy Scout work,
invited all the scouts and also other
boys of scout age, to accompany
him on camping trip at his expense.
Forty-two boys responded. The trip
into Oklahoma covering five days
was so successful, and proved the
benefits Of scouting on boy life,
that Mr.. Baughman conceived a plan
to encourage the boys to increased
endeavor. After returning to Liberal
he promised an extended camping
trip the following summer, to all
boys who would become First Glass
Scouts in one years time, From
this time applications began coming
In thick and fast, new Scout Mast
ers were impressed into service,
regular meeting places were estab-
lished. Frequent hikes were had. In
fact before cold weather set in, the
town was full of scouts in all stages
of the making from the Tenderfoot
to First Class Scout At the present
time Liberal has more than one hun
dred registered Scouts, scout Mas
ters and assistants A local Council
has been formed, and charter appli-
ed for. Mr.. E. S. Irwin is president; !;
Rev. Eli Walker, is Scout Commits
sioner All of the interests of the
city are back of the work.
By the first of June forty-one
boys had reached the coveted goal,
First Class Scouts, and were ready
to claim the promise made by Mr..
Baughman. Mr.. Baughman foresee-
ing this, had, weeks before planned
the itinerary of the sight seeing trip
which he planned to cover or cross
five states, Oklahoma, Texas, New
Mexico. Colorado and Kansas. A
distance of over one thousand miles,
through some of the most wild and
rugged districts of the Rocky noun
tains, at times to reach an elevation
of ten thousand feet. The time al
lowed for this wonderful trip was
only ten days. Could 1t be done?
Speedy cars must be selected, proper
arrangements made for safeguard
ing the health life and limb of the
scouts. Every detail was carefully
worked out, practically every camp
was selected before the start was
made. The following organization
was perfected John W. Baughman,
Transportation officer and General
Manager; Eli Walker, Scout Com
missioner, ranking Scout officer;
Rev. Pennington, Equipment offic-
er; E. A. Pennington, Commissary
officer; Bernard Meyers, Health Of
ficer; Charles Buchanan, Drill offic-
er; Willard Harnden, Assistant
Scout Master; D. G. McCombs and
o. E. Furry, drivers. 1t is interest
ing to note here that during the en-
tie journey there wasn't Ia hitch,
everything working as smoothly as
an army camp. REQ Speed wagons
werc selected to carry both baggage
and boys One for the baggage and
several boys, two more to carry the
boys. The entire party
just exactly fifty. The
value Of the selection of cars was
proven by the negotiation of the
steep mountain grades, the heavy
loads carried, and long journey
complete with but little car trouble.

OUTLINES VIEWS
ON REMEDIES IN
FARM PROBLEMS
Representative Anderson Makes
Statement After His In
vestigations

St. Paul, Sept. 28.-Sidney Ander-
son, Of Minnesota, chairman of the
congressional committee appointed to
investigate agricultural conditions
outlined remedies for farmers diff
ficulties in aystatement 3 prepared for
the farm bureau federation and re-
ceived today by thesMinnesotas fedora
tiOn here. &
A sprogram *for the FUTURE develop
ment Of agriculture, Mr.. Anderson
said, "must have for it's basis sound,
accurate and current agricultural
statistics"
Declaring that the well-being of
agriculture during the past thirty
years has relatively improved COM
pared with other industries the chair
man of the congressional inquiry
committee concluded that "notwith-
standing this Improvement the re-
wards of agriculture on the whole
have been relatively less both for the
capital invested and the labor in
volyed than they have been in other
industries" .. {r.. -tJ.s
WT. Anderson outlined successive
steps in constructive agricultural
program as follows: ,# "a,
Affirmative recognition of the
rights of the farmer to organize his
selling power, and combine for the
purpose of asserting grading, mark
eting and processing his products. g.
Expansion Of the statistical division
of the federal department Of agri-
culture. ..ss
Enactment of legislation which will
give the farmers just as good credit as
anyone and facilities adapted to his
turnover and his ability to pay from
the returns OF the farm.
A national warehouse system iii
which the moral financial and other
hazards are fully assured and under
which the farmer can finance the car
ryirg Of his own crop If he so desires.
