1000 MILE TRIP FOR Al
KANSAS BOY SCOUTS

Who wouldn't be a Boy Scout in
Liberal, Kansas! A first class scout,
that is, because only that kind are eli
gible to accompany the Scout Tours
which promise to be annual events.
But here's the whole story:
The Boy Scouts of Liberal, Kansas,
were organized in 1920. To encour-
age the movement, Mr.. John W..
Baughman, one of Liberals prominent
business men, organized and financed
forty-two boys on camping trip into
Oklahoma. So successful did this
prove, that Mr.. Baughman undertook
to finance another camping trip, but
on more elaborate scale, the follow
ing summer, with the understanding
that only first-class scouts would be
eligible as members.
With ten day outing as the incen-
tive, the boys made every effort to
qualify, and the membership of the
local Scout organization had reached
the century mark by June 1921. Of
this number, forty-one had reached
the standing of first class scouts, and
consequently were qualified to accom-
pany the tour. Including officers and
drivers the party numbered exactly
fifty. Three REQ Speed Wagons were
commissioned to carry the party, one
hauling the baggage and camping ap-
paratus and several boys, the other
two carrying only passengers.
The trip as originally planned cal
led for tour which would take in
five states, Oklahoma, Texas, New
Mexico, Colorado, and Kansas, cover
ing a distance of over one thousand
miles. The proposed route would take
them through some Of the most wild
and rugged districts of the Rocky
Mountains, at times reaching an al
titude of ten thousand feet. And the
time allowed was only ten days!
Everything was carried out true to
schedule. On the morning of June Ia
the party left Liberal, and were home
again by the evening of June 20. In
the mean time they had covered a
miles of travel, passed thru
a score of towns, enjoyed the plea
sures of camp life and visited scenes
of beauty and educational interest,
all without the slightest mishap or
illness. 9
The 1922 tour will be started about
the 10th of July, and about fifty or
sixty boys will make up the party

RAILROAD BOOM in WEST

Turn to your map of Kansas and
you will note that the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe railway runs
through Haskell County. Sublette
and Satanic are on this road and are
the only two towns in the county
that are on the railroad. You will
readily see by tracing it, that this
road gives direct connections with
Dodge City, Great Bend, Hutchin-
son, Wichita and Kansas City, thus
reaching the main markets of the
State and the west.
In addition to this road the south
western part of Kansas is experien-
cling big railroad building boom.
The Kansas and Oklahoma is building
out of Liberal, Kansas, northwest to
the Colorado state line, distance Of
about seventy miles. Also the same
road is building a connection with
the Wichita Falls and Northwestern
at Forgan, Oklahoma, about 30 miles
southehast of Liberal, thus opening
the Gulf Coast markets to this coun-
try. This will stimulate competition
and will result no doubt in better
price for our farm products.
However, more directly are we in
terested in the Santa Fe extension Of
the line that runs through this coun-
ty. It is being built out of Satanic
some sixty miles, in a western direc-
tion toward the Colorado line. In
doing this it penetrates Grant and
Stanton Counties, which heretofore
have had no railroad.
Work on these new lines is under
way and the steel is being laid. There
is no joker in the building of these
two roads. A vast territory~will be
opened up and this land is yet cheap,
but will not remain so very long.
With these new roads southwestern
Kansas is going to undergo another
wonderful development. This is the
time to get some of this cheap land.

18TH AMENDMENT IS
@ frightened in. CAL.
BY STATE MEASURE

San Francisco. Nov. 1.-THE eigh-
teenth amendment has been frightened
in California by the adoption OF
state prohibition measure. according
to returns early today SO nearly COM
plets that it will be the scattered pre-
cincts unreported could not change
the result
The latest figures gave q majority
of 20, ,621 in favor of a bone dry state.
The vote was for 4o7,s52: against
37s,331.
First returns indicated an over
whelming defeat of the measure but
the negative majority was cut down
steadily as belated figures came in.
Yesterday substantial errors in Ala
media and Los Angeles counties wiped
out this majority and 1t was changed
quickly to a minority.
California Is the leading wine grow
ing state OF the union and once har-
bored an ambition to compete with
the champagnes Of France and the
'Rhinew1nes of Germany. The dry vie
tory came after prohibition proposals
had been voted down at intervals for
ten years. *
