keeper keeps it for you, and
you buy only what you need as

BARTERING PLACES

The advertisers relieve YOU of
this trouble, by bringing their
goods to you in the advertise
mentS. Before the days of the
development of advertising,
YOU would have had TO visit a
dozen or a score of places,
weigh and choose, and then
not be sure you had made the
best selection. Advertising has
made it possible to know just
what will interest YOU and be
of value to you.
Just think what this means:
You order now without worry
or trouble because advertising
tells you all about the things
YOU want to buy before you
buy them.
Read the advertisements and
think about them with this in
mind. They are there TO serve
you.

All Its Undertake

Omaha went over the top with
vim in every war drive but one, the
Salvation army, during 1918. There
rs a good explanation for the one
failure. 1t was the announcement
that the Salvation army would share
jim the United War Fund drive, re-
leased while the "doughnuts for
'doughboys' fund was being raised
in Omaha.
Huge over-subscriptions were fca-
lures of each campaign. Figures for
the number of French orphans
adopted in Omaha families do not

ers have taken for themselves be-
cause there was no definite organ
