by 2 majority of 100000, the Court of Appeals held last week that the new law was unconstitutional. The American Legion of the state now is preparing to campaign for an amend mcnt to the constitution, with the Governor of the state and members of the legislature behind them.
 To assist in ridding the city of providers, petty thieves and holdups, the American Legion post of W!chi- ts, Kas., recently volunteered the services of it's 500 members. Due to numerous attacks on women and the resultant panic in their ranks, the chief of police and the city mana ger accepted the offer. The service men will patrol the streets.

Nature could not devise a way to ced and repair the body without the production of considerable waste .Ia:ter. But Nature provided for the regular, thorough elimination of such waste. To disregard her in- .1ntion is to break natural law.
 Whether you help Nature by wise or foolish means is left to your own judgment. To simply force bowel movement IS unwise, unnatural and lnelte tertive. You can choose harsh. drastic, violently acting drugs or take such without caring what their action or effect is, or you can select 5ome old time-provsn, trial-tested remedy. that has been used for 70 years or more by thousands of people all over the world, with the result that it has won an cnviable reputa- ton as q reliable household remedy. Take Beechams a for example. All the world knows Beecham's; a good lv part of the world uses Beecham's, has been using it for years, handing it. use down from father to son, from mother to daughter, for gen. eration nf4cr generation, recommend ing it tU others.

These mashed beans and peas are ready to be made into all kinds of soups by adding the various season. ings, water and milk, or stock enough to make quarts. These soups should all have a little flour added to them as a binder to prevent the thick part from settling to the bottom. Mix thoroughly two tablespoons fat with two tablespoons flour, add little of the hot soup, and stir until it is smooth, then add to the remaining soup, stirring to prevent Jumping, and cook for about 10 minutes. Black Bean Soup or Split Pea Soup
 To the pulp from 1 pint beans or peas, add enough water or stock to make 2 quarts. Thicken with flour as directed. Season with salt and pepper. The juice of a lemon and one-half teaspoon mustard adds to the flavor.

 To the cooked and mashed pulp add enough milk to make quarts of soup. Season and thicken with flour.
 Puree or Porridge of Beans and

 Instead of milk, tomatoes may be used. Add cup of canned tomatoes or three medium-sized. tomatoes, which have been cooked for 10 min utes and put through a sieve. If the pOrridge is too thick, add water or stock. Season and add the four as directed.

Lincoln County May Hare
NeD oil Boom

Special to The World
KENDRtCK, Okla, Nov 25.-
That Lincoln county has an oil boom
| I'm store seems practically assured
| The east halt Of tho county Is Of
the Pennsylvania formation and Il is
now a proven fact that the various
sands contain oil and gas in paying
quantities. Oil operators have also
begun to regard Lincoln county ia
vorably OF late and II In known that
several individuals and companies
contemplate drilling in the near fu-
ture. Prominent oil men from Tulsa
and oklahoma city have been in evi-
dence throughout this section for the
past few days, renewing leases and
taking some new acreage.
1t has been believed for many
yc~rs that Lincoln county would at
some time he covered with oil der
ricks, and the one prayer OF old set
tiers here is that their days may be
heightened to the time when the
olive treasure shall be flowing over
the derricks.
Oil men became interested in the
country around Kendirck some 90
years ago and drilled well on the
sea bea farm. At that time II was
thought that oil should be tound
here at a shallow depth and the well
the Seahea well was abandoned
many lost nope OF ever seeing oil
here and there was a temporary de-
cline in land values.
4 few years after tho Seabea well
was abandoned as a dry hole party
OF geologists visited this section and
declared the well TO be too shallow
to prove anything and hopes Of see
ing gushers here were renewed
again
Then came the rich strike cast OF
Cushing, and for time everyone al
most went wild. When the edge
Of the Cushing pool was found the
excitement died down again, but tho
greater part OF the country was still
held under lease.
Since the boom days OF Cushing
considerable wildcatting has been
done in the eastern portion OF the
county, which has resulted in a good
gasser near Davenport. Gas has also
been found around Agra and near
Avery A well being drilled five
miles north OF Kendrick is now max
ing a good showing OF gas. 4 well
being drilled near Chandler was re-
Gently abandoned AS dry, but oil OF
the more important sands were
found and Il IL said they were OF
and one good oiler. There has been
! more drilling within Stroud territory
than any other town In Lincoln
county. and two wells that would
have made good producers have been
lost through IN luck,
The wells that have been drilled
prove beyond question that the oil
bearing sahds exist IN Lincoln coun-
~, and the only question confront
ing operators now Is. will they pro.
duce at certain location. one
thing Is certain and that Is. oil mon
are beginning TO have confidence In
Lincoln county, and II il hcliepcd
that the time is not far distant when
II will be the scene ut much activity,

and selling his refined stuff on

are tra. things are going to improve
before thyy get any worse. 50 far as
the r,gupr is concerned, because n

from tho larger purchasing agents,
who are guarding against a famine
when spring trade opens. n is up

also extremely probable that tho
iobbers throughout the country are
going 90 find themselves short OF
