REGULATING WIRELESS.

1t was not so many years ago that
there was no such thing as wireless
Great progress has been made in devei-
oping abe radio and never was there
such a number, young and old, through
out the country, or the world taking an
interest In this development of science.
Where it will end no one knows. That
there are SD many engaged in trying to
make USE of the air at the same time
for comlnulication that it is becoming
jammed. 1t means that instead of
some being able to use it none except
the most powerful, and then under
much incol venience, will be able to do
it if the present growing confusion ex-
lists.
Ii is one Of the problems that must
be solved by the scientists Possibly
they can devise some method of over
coming tn situation If SO it remains
for the fu ture to develop. At the pres
ent time the belief of Secretary Hoover
Of the de partment of commerce is that
the real use of the radio telephone
should liz confined to the sending of

when It comes to try to have a gen.

ALE SPRING MILLINERY

One of the most striking notes in
new French millinery is the revival
of the use of flowers, which bring
color, as part of the reaction against
the wearing of black.
Many Partisan milliners are plac-
ing flowers, which trail over the brim
at the side Of wide straw hats, while
others weave underbrims with scarlet
peoples. Again, we find smart ailor
shapes in black straw, trimmed with
immense punches of scarlet or red
roses very much in evidence.
Straw is the dominant material, but
is still so expensive that taffeta, sat
ing and geergette are given much i'm
portance. Taffeta is the predominatins
silk.
There is a new, shiny straw CLOTH
called laise de paille, which is ex-
cellent for draped and blocked shapes
and which has the merit of being ex-
tremely light in weight. Horsehair
woven into cloth and lace, is shown il

FOR BUSINESS CIR.

That certain style of outfit called
the business garment has become a
necessity as well as an economy to
women who have entered the business
world. The hat for the street or busi :
ness wear should neither be an out
ing nor an evening hat, but sort Of
happy medium, being of good wear
ing material and inconspicuous. How
ever, these hats need not be severe
ly plain in color or line
For. dress materials, cotton in sum-
mer is good, because it washes easily.
Wooden is the best cloth for protec-
ton against cold; silk for beauty and
ornament.
Only plain standard colors should be
worn by the woman who cannot afford
| many clothes. Plain dark blue, tan and
gray.

no CLEAN PAPIER MAcAE

PAPER mache and lacquered trays
should never be cleaned with hot wa
ter, which will proba bly, crack the sur
face in course of time and the heat
will remove the gloss.
An excellent cleaning medium for
these articles is found in a paste made
of flour and olive oil. This should be
rubbed in well with a piece of soft
flannel Any stained parts should re-
eeive special attention. Wipe off with
another rag, and finally polish with
an old silk handkerchief With this
treatment the more rubbing the tray
receives the better will be the result

cHlLpREN,s FASHIONS

An unusually pretty little dress for
q child of 4. seen recently, was made
Of tan colored heavy cotton crepe. The
yoke and sleeves were attached to the
dress proper by means of crocheting
done in brown wool. The hem was cut
apart from the skirt and then fas-
tened back with the crocheting. A sim
pie stitch was used so that the gen
etal effect was that of hemstitching
done with wool floss.
A clever party dress for a small

IN THE LIONS DEN

The Lions Club of Liberal'held its
regular meeting at the Grier Monday
at noon, with H. A. Gaskill as chair
man. The attendance was exception
ally good. After the reading of the
minutes and roll call Mr.. Hobble,
who was appointed from the club to
membership on the Associated Chari-
ties, made a report of the organiza-
ton. A motion was made that each
member of the Club become sus-
tanning member of the Associated
Charities for the. year. Motion car
ried.
Mr.. King of the Chamber Of Com
merce made report on the activi-
ties in regard to the landing field
for Liberal. The ground is in readi-
ness and all that is lacking is the
marker on the some large building
of the city.
The visitors of the day, District
Judge Vance, Sergeant Branstater.
Mr.. Bodecker and Mr.. Buckley, made
short talks which were appreciated
by all members present. Lion Pysher
was called upon for solo and did
remarkably well, considering the fact
that he had had no preparation. Hol-
land, King and Pysher made report
of the booster trip to Logan, New
Mexico, where the new bridge was
dedicated.
Chairman for the next meeting,
March 9th, is John Knaak.

CONFERENCE PLANS ARE
ALMOST COMPLETED NOW
Accommodations for a Few More
Are Needed-Other Arrange
ments About Perfected

Final plans for the entertaining of
the Methodist Annual Conference in
Liberal, beginning March 7th, are be-
ing worked out as the paper goes to
press.
One of the most difficult tasks was
securing accommodations for the
hundreds of delegates and visitors
who are coming to the city for the
Conference week activities. How
ever, responses are coming in nice
shape, and the crowds will be we'll
taken care of. There is yet need for
more places and it is hoped that any
one reading this will respond to their
full ability and call Rev. Henry, stat
ing how many they can accommo-
date.
Especially is it desired that there
be places for some of the boys who
will come as delegates to the older
boys conference. Families having
high school boys should make places
for these boys, or at least serve them
with breakfast. They will enjoy their
! stay more if they are in the company
of boys of near their own ages.
The program appeared in the last
issue of the Democrat and contains
some great programs. Everyone who
can get into the buildings will be
well repaid for attending and record
crowds are expected.
Sunday will no doubt see the larg-
est crowd of strangers which has ever
visited Liberal, as folks will be here
from all over this part of the country,
and there should be ample entertain
ment for all.
On Sunday there will be services
in the different churches of the city,
conducted by visiting ministers, both
morning and evening, and these
should be we'll attended.
One of the things which impresses
a stranger most is the attitude Of the
people of the city. See to it that
stranger you meet goes away feel
ing that Liberal is hospitable town.
Be ready with any information which
might be desired. Speak good word
for Liberal. Visit with the stranger
and make him feel at home, and as
he leaves, welcome him back to the
city.
We hope that every citizen viii get
the spirit of this occasion and do his
bit toward making it success from
every standpoint.

LOCAL OIL COMPANY GETS
A BOOST FROM ILLINOIS
DIR. Nesbit, Democrat Reader, Sends
Checf for Seward Co.. Oil &
Gas Company Stock

GAS am reader of your paper and
own three quarter sections of land
about IL miles from your town / adj
mire the booster spirit of all your wide
awake citizens.
/ have been to your town several
times since 1908 and have seen the
great strides you made and have often
said it was the only place / could be
contented and / have lived here fifty
two years, having been born right here
Now what l want you to do for me
is to purchase $500 worth of Seward
County Oil G. Gas Company Stock, as
l notice in your last issue you need
the money, and that the 4500 feet pos
sibility sounds good to me"
Thus writes DR.. G. W. Nesbit of
Sycamore, Illinois, inclosing his check
for $25 for the stock.
The Democrat is pleased to get the
letter, for we like to hear and print
nice things about Liberal, and Mr.. Mes
bits letter is quite boost, not only
for the oil company, but for the town
and community.
Now if lot of other nonresident
land owners would just follow DR.. Mes
bits example it would be mighty fine.
He has done nice thing which might
well be copied by others.
Anyone owning and in Seward or
adjoining counties can well afford to
help us boost the country for it will
help all Of US.
On behalf of the city and the oil
company the Democrat extends thanks
to DIR. Nesbit, and we hope that when
the oil we'll comes in and we need more
doctors, he will come and make his
home here in Liberal.

BYERs SAYS EXPECTS TO
BUILD THRU COLORADO"
Writes Springfield Paper He Has
No Other Thought. To Hugo
sn ton BY April lat

The last issue of the Springfield
Democrat Herald contains letter
from President o. P. Byers which is
interesting reading to Liberal folks,
as well as the people of Colorado.
1t seems that the people of Spring
field are really anxious to get Byers
interested in building into Baca
county. Liberal should. be just as
deeply interested, for to our notion,
the building of the road to Spring
field will mean almost as much to
Liberal as it will to Springfield
The letter from Mr.. Byers to Edi-
tor Konkel is as follows:
Hutchinson, Kans., Feb. 10, 1922.
Dear Mr.. Konkel:
have your letter of the 18th in
stant. We have but single thought
and that is to build across Baca
county
Beyond doubt we will here and
there experience delays, but they
will be only temporary, and in each
case we shall push on harder than
ever. Our purpose is to steadily
move towards the state line.
Our road is now in operation from
Liberal to the Stevens county line.
In fact, we are daily loading grain in
Stevens county.
Il cannot imagine that we will not
besin Hugoton by April 1st.
We today let the contract for grad
ing from Liberal southeast to the Ok
lahoma line, and we shall hereafter
work in both directions from Liberal
until Forgan is reached. 1t is of the
utmost Importance that we shall at
once have direct line to the Gulf.
The move of the Santa Fe is, OF
course, inspired by our activities. If
we had not have begun our work they
would not have built the Satanta ex.
tention in the next twenty years
Beyond the Kansas-Colorado line
it Is simply up to your people.
M. E. C. Wilson Of Richfied, is g
director of our company, and is thor
oughly familiar with all our plans
He is on the ground. would prefer
that Re speak for US. / am sending
! fiineneropy of this letter.
Yours very truly,
o. P. Byers

SNOW STORM DELAYED
TRAINS AND STOPPED
TRAVEL THIS WEEK
Heaviest Snow of the Season Fell Here
Beginning Early Monday
Morning

Snow began falling here at an early
hour Monday morning and continued
late Tuesday evening, during which
time the entire country as far south
west as Tucumcari,, New Mexico, was
buried under blanket of snow.
The temperature was possibly the
lowest of the winter having gone to 10
below zero.
A heavy wind accompanied the snow
and it drifted badly, delaying trains
and stopping travel.
Train service is just beginning to
get back to normal after having been
almost paralyzed for several days.
While the snow drifted badly it is
going to be considerable benefit to the
growing crops.
