OIL MEN ARE BUSY

Reports to the effect that there is
big excitement in the Panhandle
country southwest of Spearman per
sists to be the topic of the day in
that section of Texas. This is all
due to the two wells that have shown
a considerable amount of oil within
the past four weeks. The well north
of the South Canadian river some
35 miles from Spearman, known as
the Dial test, is showing about 1000
feet of oil in the pipe and has not
been shot yet. The report is that
this oil was found in a shale forma-
ton and it is believed that when shot
it will make big producer. 1t is es-
timated that it will now pump some
80 barrels per day.
We understand that the biologists
have now conceded that this field is
no longer a mere speculation; that
it is proven beyond doubt. They
also seem to believe that the district
is large, covering the area from the
Amarillo field up the Pala Duro and
on north embracing the Liberal field.
They have, according to reports,
reached the conclusion that the for
nation over this entire district is the
same, practically, basing this conclu-
sion on the logs of the various tests
and the finding of gas at about the
same depths, between $500 and 5000
feet. It is now contended that oil
will be found at depth of about
500 feet below the gas strata. This
has also been bourne out by the tests
that have reached that depth.

stay. Hundreds of them were held
last year all over the United States
all with gratifying results. Coming
at a season when the ordinary activ-
tiles of the children are suspended,
it is delight to them as well as a
source of great profit. Its sessions
are short, yet the children learn as
much about the Bible and Christian
life if not more, than they learn in a
whole year at Sunday school. 1t
gives an opportunity for concentra-
ton upon religious literature, his
tory, thought and activity, and ac-
complishes wonders in a short time.
We would urge every parent who
has the spiritual welfare of their
children at heart, to make arrange
ments if possible, to have their child
rem attend. The sessions will begin
at 900 a. m. and dismiss at II 80,
five days in the week for three weeks.
This is a great opportunity. See
some one of the pastors as soon as
possible. Make arrangements and
have your boys and girls present at
nine o'clock next Monday morning
Ages for registration are 6 to 10.
There will be seven grades. Seven
competent teachers will have charge.
Prof. A. V. Ebersole will superintend
the school. His management insures
the fact that this Bible school will
be a great success.

THE HUDSON LEADS
IN CLOSED CARS
Growth Of This Business in Five
Years One of the Features of
Automobile Industry

Automobile manufacturers are
agreed that the tremendous increase
in proportion of closed cars made
since 1916 has been one of the out
standing features of the automotive
business during that period. In that
year, 1.5 per cent of all motor cars
made in the United States was closed
cars. This proportion has arisen
rapidly each year since, reaching 20
per cent in 1921, and it is still grow
ing at a phenomenal rate.
The Hudson Motor Company, al
ways among the leaders in proper
ton of closed car sales, due to its
pioneering in this line, probably tops
all manufacturers today. Fifty-five
per cent of its entire output since
January has been in closed cars, it
announces.
Essex Motors is believed to be in
second place in this respect. Slight
ly more than half of the Essex out
put since the year started has been
in cars of this type.
Both companies state that the pro-
portion of this business is continuing
at approximately the same rate, even
with summer at hand. In fact, it is
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1922-06-01

quite certain, they declare, that when
production totals for May are COM
piled, it will be found that the closed
car business for that month was even
higher than the yearly average to
date. 1t is believed that each COM
pany's proportion will mount even
higher during the remainder of the
year, since closed car business is al
ways heavy in the fall.
In 1921, 81 per cent Of Hudson's
entire manufacture and 10 per cent
of the Essex output was in closed
cars. Decision to build the new Coach
type and the ability of each concern
through volume sales to offer this
model at but little more than an open
car price, are generally accepted as
the reasons for the remarkable gain
each has made. Orders for these
types continue to pour into the fac
tory in undiminished number, it is
reported.
The great demand for closed cars
has, however, curtailed production
for all manufacturers and has re-
suited in making the countrywide
shortage of both Hudson and Essex
cars even more acute, the companies
announce. This is so because of the
greater time necessary to produce
closed car bodies. Hudson and Essex
have thousands of untitled orders on
their books today, the statement
reads.

. 1T MUST NOT BE

= The proposition to establish play
ground for COLORED children in St.
Paul is un-American and THE APP
PEAL is opposed to it.
One of the strange phases of jim
crowism in these days in the fact that
nine tenths of the plans to degrade
the colored people into pariah class
are conceived in the brains of people
who call themselves Christians. In
the majority Of cases when the COL
ored man is kicked down it is done
"for his benefit" and Gin the name of
The Lord" ..:-. .~~r.. j..
No doubt some of the promoters
believe that they, are doing great
thing for the colored people Of Saint
Paul but they are mistaken.
No greater evil could come to Saint
Paul, to the white people as well as
the colored people, than the attempt
to segregate one group of citizens.
It is thing which will serve to in
flame the fires of race prejudice.
It is inconceivable that any COL
ored people could so belittle them
selves as to be parties to so infam-
Gus a scheme and it is Infamous
whether it is so intended or not. We
are glad to know that the superil-
tendent of Fairgrounds opposes the
plan.
The decent self-resrecting people
Of Saint Paul must fight the nefari-
GUS scheme to finish. If you are
good American you should oppose it.
IT MUST NOT BE!
