Dear Sir:
The writer once knew of a barber
shop where nobody talked--no, it
wasn't a deaf and dumb establishment
---but the boss made it a rule, and no.
body talked.
If there's any place where free speech
is free it's in a barber shop. Sometimes
the wit isn't as sharp and keen-edged as
the razors--but it usually makes up in
quantity. However that may be, there's
one subject your customers always like
to hear talked about, and that's how to
make Nevada still more prosperous.
You might pass the word to all your
BARRIERS to take advantage of the
opportunities, when they have the faces
of their customers swathed in hot towels,
to deliver a little sermon on the
MAYROSE HAMS AMI BACON
Tell them these freshly cured meats
are from Nevada pigs, raised on Nevada

they'll be sure to be immensely pleased.

fought on for three years. and moth.
ing approaching a decision has been;
reached in any quarters.
AT the outset of the war The Her
aid. while hoping that the United.
States might not be drawn into the
conflict, entertained and expressed the
conviction that the war was started
by Germany for the purpose of ex-
tending her authority over the entire
world, and that the war must go on
until that purpose was definitely de-
feated. Little by little It became evil
dent that the United2States itself was
being made the object of attack and
conspiracy, and at length this nation
was forced into the war.
1t will be we'll into the fourth year
before the UnitedSsstates a appear
as an important military force IN the
conflict. Already her ships and her
sailors are doing good work, but
armies operate under different condi-
lions, and it will be some months be-

are pledged to the use.
