WORK GOING
GOOD ON NEW
HIGH SCHOOL
HAS BEEN NO DELAY ON MA
TERIALS SINCE IN SEP
TENDER.

Liberals new $175,000 high school
building is taking on a gigantic ap-
pearance the past two or three weeks.
Almost all of the concrete for the
second floor is run in and the stone
and brick masons are at work this
week on the second story walls.
Superintendent Fargo tells us that
he has enough materials on the
grounds at present to finish the Sec
ond story and that all of the face
brick are here. There has been no
delay whatever since late in Septem-
Der ,on materials not arriving, and
Mr.. Fargo states that he has only
been delayed three or four hours on
account of the severe cold weather
of the past week.
The contractors say that they feel
exceptionally fortunate that there
has been no more delay caused by
freight tieups. He says that contract
ors all over the country are expert
encing much trouble in getting their
materials and that construction in
all parts of the state is being ham,
pered by such delays.
No trouble is being had getting
workmen, and men who are capable
and willing to work. 1t will only be
a matter of a few months until the
dreams of progressive Liberal citi-
zens will be REALIZED and we will have
one of the best and largest high
school buildings in the state. We
think that our high school has been
making a good record the past two
or three years, but this record will
be insignificant in comparison with
the forward steps the Liberal schools
will make after they are settled in
their new, modern, roomy, comfort
able building.

COLD WEATHER
HITS LIBERAL
SATURDAY EVE
FIRST NORTHER HITS WHILE
LIBERAL is ATTENDING
FOOTBALL GAME.

The first real winter weather ar
rived in the southwest Saturday aft
ernoon in the form of one of those
old time northers. There was a
mighty crowd, almost all of Liberal,
at the football game between Garden
City and Liberal that day, and there
was little thought of the weather, es-
pecially cold weather. The day had
been warm, the sun shining and no
wind, one of those ideal southwest
Kansas fall days.
About the middle of the game a
hard north wind came up and in a
very few minutes the thermometer
had dropped several degrees. There
was a heavy freeze Saturday night,
and automobile owners were busy
Sunday morning looking for wood al
cohol for their radiators. The cold
weather has been having a slight ef-
feet upon the attendance at the tab
ernacle meetings.

BUCKLIN WILL
COME FOR THE
GAME FRIDAY
DOPE is EVEN ON TWO TEAMS,
BUT LIBERAL HAS ADVAN-
TAGE OF HOME GROUNDS.

What will likely be the hardest
fought game of the season will occur
here Friday afternoon when the Lib
eral and Bucklin teams battle for
football supremacy.
Bucklin has won every game this
season and the team is in good shape.
A good, heavy line with fast ends
makes them hard bunch to go up
against. While Liberal has lost one
game by narrow margin, she has
had larger towns to contend with
than has Bucklin, and local fans are
predicting a victory over Bucklin on
account Of the game being on the
home grounds.
All agree that Bucklin is handi-
capped this much and even though
her team is the equal of the Liberal
team this break is in our favor.
One thing of which the Democrat
feels certain is that the game will be
a good one. Bucklin is our old home
and we know lot Of the fellows on
the team and know they are good,
clean sports, full of pep and hard
workers. They will do their best to
win in a clean, honorable manner.
And Liberal has just such team.
Only once this season have they been
accused of anythi gnpaproaching
roughness and that was hastily re-
tracted, so when the two forces meet
you are going to see an exhibition
of footabll that will be real.
Everyone should be out roofing for
their home team because the boys are
going to need all the support they
can get and the way they have played
this season they deserve it.

ARMISTICE DAY
OBSERVED HERE
LAST SATURDAY
AMERICAN LEGION HAD CELE-
BRATION IN CHARGE AND
DAY WAS ENJOYED.

|. Liberals observance of Armistice
Day, the fourth anniversary of the
closing of the World War, was start
ed off at 10 o'clock last Saturday
with grand parade, led by the
American Legion band, followed by
all ex-service men, boy scouts, school
children and decorated floats. There
were some beautiful floats in the pa
rade, among them being the Red
Cross float, which received much ia
vorable comment.
After the parade, Rev. E. G. Miller
gave the address of the day at the
Tucker theater and the building was
crowded to its full capacity. At
noon the regulation army slum, was
', served free to the large crowd, pre-
pared by expert army chefs.
The first thing on the program aft
er dinner was a band concert. The
American Legion band was at its best
under the direction of Prof. Raw
lings and their selections were ap-
preciated by the large crowd that had
gathered around the speakers plat
form on North Kansas avenue.
There were numerous clowns on
the streets and the prize winner,
Mike Spooner entertained the people
for several minutes with some good,
snappy jokes and songs. There were
several contests on the platform,
among them being the greasy pole
and the sparring on the mast. The
different clubs and organizations Of
the city competed for honors in the
latter contest. The football game at
$3.50 was big feature of the days
program. Liberal defeated Garden
City's gridiron warriors in a one
sided contest, "a to 0. The storm
coming up during the middle of the
game marred the pleasure to some
extent.
All ex-servlce men were entertain
ed at the Methodist church for sup
per by the local American Legion
post. The big Ford dance was an
other feature of the days program.
There were about 900 tickets sold
to the dance at which Ford coupe
was given away to the one holding
the lucky number. The lucky num-
Der was held by Mrs. Marie Johnson,
bookkeeper at Germans.
Liberal can always draw large
crowd to her celebrations, and the
people always feel that they have
been well entertained. Last Satur-
day was no exception and everyone
was we'll satisfied with the days en-
tertainment and program.

THE REVIVAL
is FOR YOUR
OWN BENEFIT
SPLENDID MUSIC AND WONDER.
Full SERMONS AWAIT YOU
EACH EVENING.

If you have not attended the meet
ing at the big tabernacle, you are
not partaking Of the feast prepared
for you.
The undertaking was not without
labor. Many days and nights of eff
fort were necessary to provide this
inspiring service and surely you will
want to enjoy it with your neighbors
and friends.
A cordial welcome awaits you at
every service and your presence will
help to make the campaign a sue
cess. There is enthusiasm in num-
bers and if you get into the habit of
attending regularly you will enjoy it
so much that you will want others to
share the pleasure with you.
This meeting is not for Liberal.
While the management and the re-
sponsibility rests on the members of
the local ministerial association, the
meeting is for the southwest. The
people of Seward and adjoining coun-
ties in Kansas and Oklahoma will be
warmly welcomed and it is suggested
that the surrounding towns make up
parties and attend in body.
The messages are for all and there
is always plenty of room for the ear
ly comers. Make this your meeting.
The more you do this the more you
will get out of it.

SECOND WEEK OF GREAT EVANGELISTIC
CAMPAIGN is PRODUCTIVE OF
SPLENDID RESULTS
POWERFUL SERMONS TELLING ON
FORCES OF SIN IN LIBERAL
Crowds Continue Good at Every Service-Big
Booster Trip Monday Carried News of
Meeting to Surrounding
Country.

The great evangelistic cam
pain in the tabernacle is in the
middle of the second week and
results have been surprising.
While weather conditions have
been far from satisfactory,
there has been no lessening in
attendance or interest.
Every afternoon and every
evening splendid audiences are
on hand TO hear the message OF
Evangelist Miller and enjoy the
music by Messrs. Troy and Eel
lers and the great chorus.
In fact it seems that the cam
paign is gaining momentum as
The days pass, and the meeting
is the topic of most conversa-
ton.
The cottage prayer meetings con-
tinue to be well attended and are add
ing workers to the forces behind the
campaign.
Monday night was rest night for
the evangelistic party, but Tuesday
was a busy day. The Mems Meeting
at the Masonic hall at 1245 was
we'll attended and most interesting.
At 3 o'clock there was mass meet
ing at the tabernacle and at 1880
great audience heard Evangelist Mil
Ter talk on the subject "After Death,
What" The Young Peoples Societies
of the churches of Liberal attended
in body.
Wednesday another meeting for
men at the Masonic hall, and in the
evening the subject was "Jesus at
the Door," and the delegation was
composed of the business women Of
the city. The women were guests at
a banquet given by the churches and
went to the Tabernacle in body.
Another meeting for men was held
today, and this afternoon at the
Tabernacle, a great Mothers Day
meeting" was held. Evangelist Mil
Ter used as his text the most splen-
did word in any tongue-"Mother."
The subject for tonight is "Christ
Crowded Out"
Liberal has had some splendid meet
ings in the past, meetings which stir
red the town and country, but moth
ing which can compare with this
campaign. With but ten days passed,
interest is greater than at the close
of most meetings and the best part
is still ahead. Liberal has had some
excellent speakers, but for earnest
ness, enthusiasm and power it IL
doubtful if any could equal Evange-
list Miller. He is veritable dynamo
and his powerful delivery coupled
with his logical deductions is taking
the town and country by storm. He
says some harsh things about the way
men and women conduct themselves,
but is not offensive or abusive, and
the fact that he continues to have
good crowds is proof enough that he
is awakening the people.
1t is only logical conclusion that
this is destined to be the Southwest's
greatest revival and that its good il

Three games remain on the sched-
ule. Bucklin comes next Friday. Lib
eral goes to Hooker November "a

The dope is good for Liberal to win
the Pratt game, as Pratt only beat
Dodge six points while Liberal won
by z. Bucklih has the best dope Of
any of the three teams we are to
meet. Bucklin has a real team and
has been playing a consistent game
all season. They have heavy line
and fast ends and according to the
dope this is anybody's game, with the
advantage of being on their home
grounds in favor of Liberal.
A splendid crowd attended the
game Saturday. The team fully ap-
preciates the backing it is receiving
and will fight hard for the remain
ing three games Of the season.

CITY TREASURY
AGAIN DEPLETED
Faces Temporary Lack OF Funds
Until Tax Payments Are
Forwarded.

Until the next instalIment of tax
payments enters the city treasury,
the city of Rock Island is finan-
cially broke"
That is what City Clerk Martin
Rudgren, commissioner of accounts
and finances, announced at yester-
day afternoons council meeting.
The general fund, exhausted by
payments authorized yesterday, will
be replenished July 2. he said. when
another tax payment comes from
the county.
The payments which exhausted
the general fund yesterday amount
ed to 81 ,S64.90. Claims on the
general fund, for work done and
various supplies purchased for the
several departments. amounted to
$5,046.73. The weekly pay roll to-
tailed $S665O. The salaries for
city officials of all departments for
the first half of the month of June
came to $5,95167
If expenditures from the general
fund are called for in the next two
weeks, Commissioner Rudgren said,
they will be provided for by Dor
rowing.
Employment program of the city
since the first of the year, it is said,
was the cause of the funds being
used up two weeks before more
money comes in. Striving to tide
Iaborers and their families over the
winter depression, the city has
stretched I point to give men work.
The resultant size of the weekly
pay rolls caused the funds early
exhaustion.
