HOGS Stolen.

Williams Enterprise: J. H. O'Neil &
Son bought carload of hogs Monday
and put them in the stock yards and
Tuesday night when they weighed
them up preparatory to shipping them
they found they were short about 1,00f
pounds. A count was made, disclosing
the fact that four of the hogs were
missing. AS the gates were all closed
and the fences in good repair the only
possible solution of the missing porkers
is that some one stole them. The pigs
were valued at SO to $50.

The Socialist party has nearly
million votes in the United
States. Eugene V. Debs, head of
the party, who is doing time in
the Atlanta federal prison for dis
loyal utterances doing the World
war, is therefore a man of consid-
cradle political influence. Daugh-
erty, filling on the installment
plan the Office of attorney gen
eral, not long ago had Debs go
from Atlanta to Washington, un-
attended, evidently to discuss
with Debs the suggestion that he
be let out of Jail. Nothing of the
kind had ever before been done
by an attorney general of the
United States; but Daughtey per-
haps. reasoned that by showing
Debs unusual consideration he
would be able to line up big
Socialist vote for the Republican
party in the congressional elec-
tons, next year and in the presi-
Dental election in 1924. The
country is indebted to MIR. Ste

calling attention in the halls of

FOR LIBERAL NURSES

The Liberal Training School for
Nurses celebrated its first gradual
ing day with exercises of interest
last Thursday evening at the Chris
tian church. Rev. Walker made a
splendid address in which he paid
high tribute to the school and the
work it is accomplishing. He gave
his experiences as a patient in the
Liberal Hospital in a unique an en-
joyable way.
Miss Toilette, Supt of the Train
ing school made short address en-
phasizing the Importance Of heart
service in nursing without which
technical training is incomplete. She
also made an appeal. to young wom-
en- to enter this profession as an
avenue of great usefulness.
DR.. Huddleston, Chief Physician
and owner Of the Liberal Hospital
spoke in reminiscent way marking
each stage of the development of the
institution, paying high tribute to
the late DR., Jones its founder. He
impressed the great Importance Of
having nurses fitted and prepared
for their work. In giving to Miss
Horton, the graduating nurse, her
charge, he spoke very seriously of
the responsibility of her position and
urged that she must advance and
that her graduation is but the begin
mig and her tasks unfinished.
The music was a delightful part
of the program planned by Mrs.
Cav. Miss Esther Walker and Miss
Fay Ellsaesser contributed a beauti-
full duet. Mrs. Sally sang LEAD Me
All the Way" in her usual charming
manner. A saxophone solo by Miss
Helen Boles was also a delightful
number. Miss Walker was the &C.
companist.
Rev. Hunt led the opening and
closing prayers. Miss Horton has the
honor of being the first graduate
from this school. The work of the
Training School is forward looking
and we bespeak for it, as we'll a,
for the Liberal Hspital great fu
ture for helpfulness in our growing
city and community.
