BRYAN Is CERTAIN

But not so certain as the fact that Record ads pay big
returns on their cost. Ask any of our advertisers and he
will tell you this is so. It is the only way to reach the
people of Roswell and the cost is not great. Considering
the service given the cost is moderate.
The Record carries more classified ads than all other

pie know they get results. The Record is read by practi-
cally everybody in Roswell and your wants are placed be-

ment in North Platte Valley
West of Bridgeport.

There has been a big development in
irrigation matters in the North Platte val

Merchants. The Leavitt ditch is now about
complete and with the government bitches
just put in operation upward of $4,000 acres
OF land have been put under ditch this sea-

connecting laterals.
THE whole country has undergone a com
plete transformation from Bridgeport and
Newport up to Mitchell. Land that sold a
few years ago for SS5 per acre cannot De
bought for 500 an acre now. The oats and
beet crops up there are immens through
out the whole length of the valley. The
valleys brought under irrigation will be
about twenty miles in width, 1t is a fore
gone conclusion that the Union Pacific will
build from Hershey or O'Fallons in Ne
braska up the south side of the North
Platte to a point about forty miles west OF
Casper. This road will be in operation in
another year and is destined to become the
main line of the Union Pacific. The Bur-

NOT A HAND TO SAVE LIFE
Amazing COwardice Of Men and Boys
Who Idly watch Women
Drown.

Two hundred men and boys looked idly
on Sunday afternoon while a woman who
had fallen in the lake al the mouth Of the
Chicago river uttered agonized screams for
help and finally drowned
They seemed to enjoy the spectacle.
While the tragedy was being enacted one
OF the onlookers sIatched the hat and purse
which the woman had placed beside her

When he found that the purse contained
only a key he threw purse and hat away
and disappeared.

reached out his hand TO pull her out"
The tragedy occurred at the pier which
extends into the lake from the north bank
of the river at its mouth. The victim, who
has not been Identified, but whose attire

The company is always trying to avert ac-
cidents, whether the company could be
held for them or not"
The reduction in litigation incident to the
campaign of education is shown by the fact
that on January l the company had sew
enty-s!x suits standing against it In he
courts at Omaha and Council Bluffs, while
July l the number had been reduced to
iorty-nine. A specific incident is given IN
the effort to prevent front-end accidents,
largely caused by people passing behind a
standing car and in front of one approach
ing from the opposite direction. During
the first six months OF 1867 fourteen per-
sons were injured in this way, During the
same time this year only six were so in
jured. A part of the reduction is ascribed
TO the newspaper campaign which has di-
rected peoples attention to the danger OF
passing behind a standing car without first
finding out whether another one is ap-
preaching or not, A part of it is credited
to the efforts of the company to educate
its motermen TO run at slow speed past a
standing car.

X. A. Leussler, secretary and assistant
manage Of the street railway company,
estimates that the amount paid out in
claims for personal injuries has been de-
creased from IS to IS per cent.
Our experience with newspaper adver-
Using has certainly demonstrated it pays
big returns" said Mr.. Gross. "A street
railway company has just as much right
to advertise in the papers as a dry goods
merchant. l know of nothing that would
bring us better returns In reducing the
number OF accidents. People read our ads
and it calls their attention to things they
never thought Of before. II brings before
their minds the principal causes of ac-
eidents and they learn to avoid them. The
advertisement in the morning papers brings
up street car accidents as a topic OF con-
versation at the breakfast-t table and there
is nc doubt but as a result of the family's
talking about 1T many accidents have been
averted. People who never thought about
II before have called 10 their minds ways
OF avoiding accidents.
