DID IT

For 3 years my mother has been
very sick, being in bed most of the
time, she was very weak. troubled
with indigestion and heartburn. We
tried everything imaginable until we
bought q bottle of KoREKTO. My
mother felt better at once and now
after tho third bottle of Korekto
she is able to do her own washing.
We certainly recommend Korekto
as the best remedy for indigestion,

TO ENLARGE GALLERIES
City Water Supply viii Be Increased
So That Sufficient Water for
Future Will be Insured.

The city council has voted to buy
additional land from William Dargie
on Clay Creek and extend the collect
ing galleries in and under the creek
basin so as to secure a much larger
water supply for the city system than
it has heretofore had. The supply has
for years been adequate even in lawn
sprinkling season when there was the
normal rainfall on the watershed, but
the experience of the past two years
has demonstrated what can happen.
The long continued drouth throughout
this section has reduced the supply to
a point where if it should be continu-
ed until summer the water supply
would have to be conserved by cutting
out sprinkling or at least limiting it
to very short allowance. With the
new galleries the city will be able to
develop a large additional supply
which will assure safety in times of
drouth and which can also be easily
sold both by extending the city mains
or supplying the needs of the railroad.
The extra sale of water will far more
than pay for the interest on the bonds
besides insuring the safety of the city.
The Lamar city water plant has
been a big undertaking and when
started about sixteen years ago many
doubted its wisdom but the business
men on the city council had the fore
sight to tackle the proposition and
though they met with many and great
discouragements and disappointments
they persevered, and the result is that
Lamar has the only well developed
water supply among the cities of the
valley and with the expenditure of the
money needed for the new galleries
the troubles will be over for years to
come. AT this time the water subject
has become acute in nearly all our
neighboring cities and they are pre-
pairing to spend hundreds of thous-
ands Of dollars on developing water
supplies, although their taxes are al
ready higher than ours.

Class of '23 to Leave Radio Power
Amplifier.

At meeting of the Class of 1928
Tuesday, the class voted to leave to
the school, as a class memorial, a ro-
dio power amplifier to be used with
the radio receiving set which was Civ
en- to the school by the Class of 1922.
The purchase of the sets was plac-
ed in the hands of the Board of Edu-
cation and the members of the Board
have Investigated the particular merits
of large number of different sets.
Zach of the many sets on the market
seem to have some points of advantage
over other sets and the problem re-
solved itself into finding a set that
would best meet the requirements OF
the large auditorium of the high
school.
The final decision was to purchase
the set displayed by the McCue Mer-
camille Company, which set consists of
an Atchison detector and timer with
two stages of amplification and a
Western Electric Loud speaker and
three stage power amplifier.
This set insures sufficient volume TO
be heard in all parts of the auditorium
and it is expected that the set will be
installed by the last of the week.

NEW BANK OFFICIAL
the Wichita Farm Loan
Bank.

Manager f. NJ. Wilson of the D. A
NJ. & =. Co., who has for the past
three years been director of the
Wichita Farm Loan Bank, was at the
meeting of the board of directors held
at Wichita last week elected to the
position of vice-president of the big
institution. Mr.. Wilson's appointment
was not only recognition of his abil-
ity and service rendered by him to the
bank in the past, but was also a re-
cognition of the Importance of the Ar
kansas valley in the farming industry,
he being the only representative of
this section on the board of directors.
The bank has gained an efficient and
progressive official, and he is in posi-
ton now to do more effective work
than ever before for the advancement
of the farming interests of the valley.
Mr.. Wilson in his sixteen years bust
ness career in the valley has always
been a builder of its industries and
has done as much to create prosper
ity in the farming industry as any
other citizen of the valley, and this
deserved recognition of his business
ability will be pleasing to all his
friends

CT INSPECTION
Colonel Hanigan of the u. S. Army
Inspects the Two Lamar Nation
al Guard Companies.

Col. Hanigan of the regular army,
who has for several months been in
specting the National Guard compan-
les of this section of the country and
has spent seven weeks in Colorado,
finished his Colorado work in Lamar
last night and left this morning for
Arizona where he makes his head
quarters. He arrived in Lamar on
Saturday night, and has spent several
days investigating conditions here
with regard to the guard, and was
highly pleased with the results that
have been obtained by the local offic-
ers. He inspected Company Z on
Monday evening when Capt. ]. C.
Johnston had almost all the local en-
listed men who were in town out, and
the Colonel was well pleased with the
showing they made. On Tuesday even
ing Lieut.. C. P. Childress of the head
quarters company had all but one of
his enlisted men who could get here
out for the inspection. The Colonel
gave them a fine talk on the organi-
zation of the National Guard and its
purpose, and spent a very pleasant
evening with them. He also was a
spectator at the drill of the Boy
Scouts and complimented the young
boys on the proficiency they showed.

PAVING DISTRICT NO. ONE
and Ordering Bond Issue Intro
duced in City Council.

Slowly the red tape is being un-
humping along the toughest street in
America they are sustained by the
hope that better time is coming-a
time that will repay all for the dis
agreeable experiences of the past. The
city council received a proposed ordin-
ance on Monday evening and ordered
it passed on first reading and publish
ed. This ordinance creates Lamar
Paving District No. One, which in
cludes Main street from the paving
on the county road north of city limits
south to the south line of the library
block, and extending one block east
and west on Beech, Olive and Elm
streets. The ordinance also provides
for an issue of 5is per cent improve
ment bonds of the district in an
amount sufficient to pay for the ex-
pense of paving.
A call for bids has been issued to be
opened on March 26th and the specifi-
cations call for several kinds of paw
ing. The amount of the bond issue
and the kind of paving will not be
decided until the bids are opened. The
improvements are to be paid for in
bonds at par. Provisions are also
made in another ordinance for the re-
moval of all distractions which inter
fere in any way with the work of paw
ing. The old stone guttering on the
street has been sold to l.. Writ Mark
ham and is now being removed by him.
1t has seemed a long hard fight
since the paving of Main street was
first discussed and it looked at times
that the case was hopeless but keep
ing everlastingly at it won in this case
as it has most always before and La
mar is at last to boost itself back into
the class of progressive cities.

Boy Killed.

Marvin Burns, ten year old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Burns of Wiley,
died on Monday afternoon at the La
mar hospital as result of gunshot
wound. Te boy and an older brother
started out hunting and when the
brothers gun was accidentally dis
charged the load of shot took effect
in Marvin's leg, shattering the bones
and causing great loss of blood. He
was rushed to the hospital but was too
weakened by the loss of blood to re-
cover. The funeral services were held
at Wiley today.

Livestock Association.

The growers of pure bred stock in
the valley have organized an associa-
tion to be known as the Southeast
Colorado Pure Bred Livestock Associa-
tion, and are going to do active work
among the farmers to promote and en-
courage the growing of pure bred
stock. They have announced their in
tention of joining with the Lions Club
of Lamar in re next annual livestock
show and will announce dates and
rules long enough in advance to give
all growers an opportunity to prepare
their animals for display. They ex-
pect to assist in having some of the
best of the valley stock exhibited at
all the stock shows in this section of
the country.

Death of A. l.. Hatteberg.

On Monday morning Mr.. A. l.. Hat
teberg died of pneumonia after a few
days illness at his home on South
Fourth street. He had been a resi-
dent of Lamar for nearly fourteen
years and in the employ of the G. H.
Brown Lumber O. Mfg. Co., in re-
sponsible position all the time. He
was steady reliable man, good citi-
zen and friend, one who will be miss
ed by all who knew him. He leaves
a widow and two children to mourn
his loss. Te funeral service was held
at the Adams-Kirkpatrick mortuary
this afternoon and was conducted by
Rev. T. F. Kelly.

Death of ]. A. Snyder.

Died-At the Lamar hospital Tues
day evening after a short illness, Mr..
j. A. Snyder, who has been a resident
Of Lamar for a number of years. Mr..
Snyder returned from trip to Holly
yesterday noon and on getting off the
train complained of being very sick.
He was taken to the hospital and
found to be suffering from a very
acute attack of appendicitis. An oper-
alton was performed at once in an at
tempt to save his life but it was found
the appendix had already burst and
his death soon followed. The deceas-
ed leaves a wife and several children
to mourn his loss. He belonged to
both the Woodman of the World and
Eagles lodges and the funeral services
will be conducted by these two orders
jointly on Thursday afternoon.

To Be Expected.

We received today letter from the
National League for Protection of
Food Animals asking us to write an
editorial on the question of instruct
ing the stockmen of the plains to use
more care and intelligence in taking
care of the food animals of the coun-
try. The letter head is wonderful
affair covered with the names of prom
inent actors and writer's, who of course
know far more about the care of food
animals than men who have spent a
life time in the business and invested
all their earnings in it. The stock
growers might well organize a league
for the protection Of the morals of the
country, and request those people to
so control their actions that the next
generation might at least preserve the
knowledge of who their fathers and
mothers were. Such small matters
are getting badly mixed in many OF
the highbrow circles of the east.

Fine Radio Concert.

The American Legion rugged up a
special radio outfit a, the armory last
Wednesday evening to hear the band
concert of Amoo Grotto Band located
at Rock Island, Illinois, and broad
casted from Station VOC at Daven-
port, Iowa, as mentioned in The Reg
lister of two weeks ago. They were
well repaid for their work as it was
pronounced by all who heard it to be
the best radio concert yet heard here.
The service was so good that the mu-
sic could be heard plainly a block
away. The opera Of II Travatore was
given as well as several other fine
selections.

terestS and benefits. Being the en-
ployer of an ususually large number
of individuals, he realized his respon-
sibility to the community, and slightly
buildings, pleasant homes, and attrac-
tive surroundings, were some of his
conceptions of this responsibility.
Though drawn by the pressure of
business into larger fields which took
some of his time and energy, lamar,
always associated with his earliest eff
forts, was the center of his ambitions,
and his nearest friendships. Of these,
his strong magnetic temperament
made many and retained their loyalty.
His test of friendship was the practi-
cal need for il, and the distressed, the
grief-worn and the unfortunate were
the needy. His sympathies were quick
ly aroused, and his generosity, ever re-
sponsive to the call for them.
Friends from humble to exalted, re-
call with grateful memories, the en-
couraging word, the thoughtful act,
the practical help that expressed his
eager and kindly disposition.
