 "The other day" the communication reads, T was riding in an open motor car oa Adams street when a funeral cortege approached in the opposite di- rection from the way I was ~oing- In the drivers seat of the hearse was an old friend of mine, who waved his arm in greeting to me. Of course. in his position it was impossible for his action to be seen by the remainder oi the procession. but my position was a

difficult one I could not wave back without seeming to presume upon the soIemnity of the funeral but if I ig- nored the greeting I was apt to offend Eny friend
 ''The best thing I could think to do at the moment was to raise my arm and make d grab at my hat as if il had been on the verge of blowing off. hoping that my friend would interpret the movement as a salute to him. How ever. I would like to have a better solution of this difficulty in case l am again called upon to perform greet ing under similar circumstances

A T EACH successive automobile show
y in the past the Oldsmobile has set the
pace It has set standard of excellence
many manufacturers find difficult to
follow .
True, there is a reason why. From the
factory to the dealers one big thought
predominates: An honest product can
only be made and marketed with the hon.
est cooperation of the entire organization.
The factory builds the best product that
can be built for the money. The Nebraska
Oldsmobile Company in carrying out it's
work does and must bend every effort to
building up an organization housed in
quarters Of sufficient size to render proper,
prompt and efficient service at all times.
Our building, shown above, which is now

being erected, is just another step in car
rying out our end of the cooperation.
Again, at the present automobile show the
Oldsmobile exhibit sets the pace. The wide
varieties of styles in both the "six" and
Eight models, the quality that has estab-
lished an International reputation during
twenty-five years of superior automobile
manufacturing and the attractive prices
will convince anyone who makes search

THE NATIONS BIRTHDAY

The Nations birthday is day to
be celebrated not merely because on
that date the fathers of the country
proclaimed their political independ-
ence. 1t is significant ever more be-
cause on that date principles of free
dom and quality and justice were
proclaimed which were destined to
ovCrturn the world.
1t has often been thought that
American growth and prosperity are
due mostly to the fertile territories
this country possesses, with such
abundant resources. But many 9TH
CT countries have equal advantages.
Mexico has land having superb re-
sources, yet its people live in squat
or and misery. Prosperity and sue
cess then are not dependent so much
on opportunities, as on the use that
people make of them, and the prin
ciples on which their community life
is based.
The nation founded July 4, 1776
has gone on to abundant prosperity.
principally because it was founded
on right principles. Thus based its
people have worked unitedly, and
have accomplished the grand result
that now astoniShes the world.
Few people realize the debt the
people owe to the wonderful men
who founded this republic. 1t was
an act calling for matchless courage.
The signers of the declaration might
have lived much more comfortably if
they had quietly submitted to the
evils existing at the time.
But they were not satisfied to
live under a government based on
wrong principles. They started a
movement that has swept over the
world, freeing all peoples from the
curse of absolution, and opening
wide the doors to democratic oppor-
tunities everywhere. The people of
the United States must ever cherish
tho memorv Of these men, and take
pride in the marvellous gift they
made to the world.

HOW TO CHECK ACCIDENTS

II is TIE habit of most people, TO

As a consequence a certain propor-

who attempt these stunts are fairly

the most skilful driver will occasion

If drivers would notice the num-

THREE PER CENT ON SALES

Competent business experts lay
down the rule that a business may
well appropriate per cent on its
gross sales for advertising. Many
tests of g. er cent advertising out
lay have resulted in increasing bust
ness SO 1-3 per cent.
To manv people 3 per cent will
seem a rather small amount for a
business to spend to make itself
known and to communicate its offer
ings to the public. Many concerns
spend a good deal more than that,
and find it nays. and that they could
not exist without it.
Publicity is reckoncd as one of the
essential expenses of the up to date
business. 1t no more expects to avoid
it than to avoid insurance on its
stock or cost of clerk hire or rent.
You can't sell goods unless the peo-
pie know what you have to offer, and
3 per cent seems moderate tax for
getting that information to the pub
lie.
