METHODIST CHURCH NOTES.
NITROGLYCERINE
PLANT DESTROYED
The nitroglycerine plant of the
Kansas Torpedo Co., located about
a half mile east of the California
creek bridge, was destroyed by an
explosion about 3 o'clock Thursday
afternoon. The explosion shook
buildings for a distance of several
miles, entirely destroying the plant,
and tore a hole in the ground about
fifteen feet deiyi.
According to reports, two young
men employes from Chelsea had
gone to the plant to make gly->
cerine and in some manner set fire
to the building. Unable to ex-
tinguish the flames, before it
reached the explosives, the men ran
for their car and succeeded in get-
ting out of the danger zone before
the explosion occurred.
S. A. McAfee of this city w^s
crossing the California creek bridge
at the time of the explosion and he
was considerably shaken up when
the glycerine went off. Stones
were hurled on buildings in the
vicinity of Stop 58 and buildings
as far atyav as Nov/ata were rocked
ov the explosion.

Norman, Okla., March 7.—Medi-
cal students of the University of
Oklahoma have no aversion to the
old joke about doctors being in “ca-
hoots” with the grave diggers and
undertakers.
When the medic students gather-
ed to select an appropriate name for
their society recently, they finally
settled upon the title of “angel
makers”.
Now they are advising the world
that the First Annual Hop of the
“angel makers” will be held here tO‘
morrow night.

Wooden Shoes
THE peasants in America do not' wear wooden shoes at all,
even in the fields!” wr "8 Abbe Pierre, of Gascony. “No, the
peasants there wear shoes i r leather, although I should think that
sabots would be niuch mer : ervice&ble, not only on the roads, but
plowing.....And wooden shoes are far less expensive. Ah,
that America i« an extravagant country!”
Advertisements haven’t yet taken the heavy wooden shoes
from Gascon feet—nor yet the heavy wooden shoes from Gascon
minds. Gascony thinks in the past. America in the future.
Advertisements make the difference. They crisscross im-
provements in countless directions across the miles. They dis-
tribute Fords, furhaces and electric lights so widely that foreign-
ers think you extravagant to enjoy them. They put you in touch
with the latest conveniences. They help so many people enjoy
those conveniences that their cost to you is small.
a
f
You read advertisements to link yourself with the best—to
substitute speed for lh£ shambling progress you otherwise would
have to make in the lonely wooden shoes of isolation.
Do you read them regularly? Good habits pay.
Advci tisements are a reliable buying
guide obtainable in no other way
