Miss Emily Johnson was appointed


Miss Emily Johnson was appointed
City Clerk, Tuesday, in the place of
Miss Carrie Meyer, resigned. The ap-
pointment is satisfactory to everyone
interested. Miss Johnson has been a
trusted employee of the Citizens State
Bank for nine years and the bank Of
ficials informed her that should she
at any time tire of her new job, her
place at the bank was waiting for her.
Miss Meyer has made a satisfactory
and painstaking city official and she
resigned only because of i'll health.

Some people boot at the idea of
Dodge City and its getting a State
Normal School. The Topeka Capital
in its Legislative proceedings shows
the bill went through the House by
an overwhelming vote. In the Sen
ate it lacked only one vote, having
twenty, but further debate lost the
bill until the next Legislature. Dodge
City, Garden City, Great Bend, Clay
Center and Hays a few years ago had
about the same population-about
1000. The n. Y. World almanac
shows the 1920 census gives Dodge
City 5,O61, a gain of 1909 in the ten
years; Great Bend 4790, a gain of
over 1900; Hays about 270O, and it
was over ten years ago Hays had over
1000 and became a city of the sec
ond class. And the State Soldiers
Home is not in the city limits and not
included in the enumeration of Dodge

Methodist. Choose Architect. and


Location
The architectural firm of Brostrom
and Drotts Of Kansas City have been
chosen to plan the new Methodist
Church and Hall of Residence. Ten
tative plans for the new building
have been in the hands of the commit
tee for weeks and last week Mr.
Brostrom was in Hays to get the sug-
gestions and changes of the commit
tee.
The building will be Gothic in
style, will be in the form of an open
square and will be about one hundred
feet deep and nearly two hundred
feet long. The main features are an
auditorium or sanctuary large enough
to care for the regular congregations
but capable of expansion to a seating
capacity of one thousand Under
this will be an equally large lecture
room where all types of services not
strictly religious may be held. Com
plete Religious Education department
will be found in the connecting part
between the two wings and these will
be developed according to the latest
ideas in religious pedagogy. Under
meath these will be the social center.
Large parlors extending across the
front of this section will provide a
lounge for students and provision for
the Adult and Young Peoples de-
partment of the Bible School. The
west wing will contain the Residence
Hall and will care for from sixty to
! one hundred young women, depend
ing upon the demand.
Before final acceptance the plans
have to be approved by the Bureau of
Architecture of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church and Mr.. Brostrom prom
Uses to have the blue prints in Chicago
for that purpose within two weeks.
The site chosen, after considerable
deliberation, is on the corner of West
Normal Avenue and Ash Streets, the
property next to the parsonage. Two
hundred and fifty feet front on Nor
NAL Avenue has been purchased which
with the parsonage property will give
2 church frontage of three hundred
and twenty-five feet. The entrance
70 the Church will be on the Corner
of Normal and Ash, the entrance to
the social department will be on Ash
Street nearer Juniata, and the en-
frances to the Religious Education
and Student Departments on Normal
Avenue.
While this site is further west from
Chestnut Street than was desired, the
committee did not feel justified in
painyg the advanced prices asked for
property a block nearer; and the
Official Board of the Church with only
one dissenting vote accepted the re-
port of the committees on this loca-
ton.
The Methodist map of Hays shows
the corner of Normal and Ash to be
the exact center of the Methodist
population. 1t is only three blocks
from the business center, but block
further than the present location and
paved streets all the way. In turn it
is three blocks from the Normal. The
site thus admirably meets all the pur-
poses of the church.
Work on the plans will be pushed
rapidly by the architects and it will
not be long before the dirt begins to
