FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS TO MO.
VALLEY BY AIRWAY.
(By DR.. Horace Warren.)

If one should wish to understand
fully the difference in conclusion
because of ones point Of view, he is
bat to take a trip in the air. The
things that were tall and big and
formidable to one on earth, become
reduced to nothing, as is the case with
the hills which appear as flat as the
Missouri bottom and the Missouri
river seems to be about like the once
meandering Boyer. And stacks of
wheat make one think Of ant hills and
several oblong stacks of hay resem-
BILE a graveyard. Human beings when
one cen possibly discern them, look
like splotches Of protoplasm. But the
view! It's indescribable.
It's been my desire ever since I've
lived in Mo. Valley, which is several
and sundry years, to go up in a bal
loon or airship or flying machine of
some kind, and only to obtain the
view. It's the grandest conceivable.
Between here and Council Bluffs it's
grander than anything I've seen in
the Rockies. It is with some timidity
that stepped into the front seat of
Capt. Nelson's fine Curtis biplane
this morning about eleven O'clock,
but this feeling was all dissipated
when the big propeller began to
whirl. l had no particle of fear or
nervousness and the entire ride which
lasted but 10 minutes for the 25 miles,
was one Of unalloyed pleasure. l feel
that one is much safer in the air than
on earth, dodging automobiles. Capt.
Nelson is a safe and sane pilot, and
a skillful one, too, and no one should
have the least fear about taking a
ride with him. Every one should so.
Whatever else you miss during the
Fair, be sure to take ride in the
airplane with Capt. Nielsen. Remem-
ber, he does no stunts when he has a
passenger.

tion to the Farmers" His talk open
ed new lines of thought to all those
who heard him.
j. w. Coverdale, Secy of the Fed
GRAFTON, also gave a good talk along
the same lines. Several other good
talks and demonstrations were also
on the program, which will. without
a doubt, bear fruit in the future.
This bureau is doing a great good

WANTS TO KNOW THE DEALER.

N%sS Ao ~ hNOW IaE DEALER.
",fhe present-day purchaser of an
automobile wants to know the dealer
as well as he does the car" says f.
H. Reebee of the Beebee Auto Co.
This has brought a new element
into automobile merchandising and is
making some up-to-date automobile
salesrooms resemble the lobby of a
modern club. But it's fine tenden.
cy in trade, that cultivation of bet
ter acquaintance between the dealer
and his customer. 1t makes for more
complete understanding before pur-
chase and for much greater salts
faction after possession"
This expresses the intensively mod
ern development of retail automobile
trade. People now leisurely inspect
the models they are interested in. The
element of dealer responsibility has
become such CONSPICUOUS factor that
the prospective purchaser is very
liable to believe today that "a cranky
and impatient auto dealer sells auto
mobiles that are just as unsatisfac-
tory.
Those who seek counsel or who are
merely Cooking around" always find
a cordiality annd courtesy in The
Beebee show rooms that make them
feel that they are welcome whatever
may be their intentions, and expresses
the belief that the firm is on sale
Just as much as the car it handles
and everybody in the organization
must be friendly and cheerful before
everything else.
