 People who buy Armstrong's do more than just "put down lino- leum." They expect a trained Gno- leum layerto put it down right, and after that they have it waxed and polished.

on automobile row was made recently
when the Studebaker Corporation OF
America established its own retail
store and service at 1850 Farnam

, 1t will be the intention of the Stude-
baker corporation to offer to it's
owners and prospective owners the
highest type of service, which is made
possible through the expert attention
given each owner by highly trained
factory representatives and me-
chanics.
The retail operation will be un-

experience particularly qualities him
for the management of this retail

whose organization will continue
wholesale activities, will be able to
offer even closer cooperation than
heretofore. This refers particularly
to the fact that the Studebaker cor
poration handles its own retail de-
ferred payment financing.
The unlimited factory facilities will
permit many changes in the methods
of handling sales and service. which
will be of a decided advantage to
Studebaker owners. Mr.. Bonney for

best Jingle toasts to Glorious Gloria,
needed only the urge to display their
ability in penning verse.
Considering the brevity of the time
the contest ran, the response was all
that could be anticipated. Exactly
262 toasts were received at The Oma-
ha Bee office up to noon Saturday,

Only 25 of that number were Sc.
lected by the judges for the awards.
There were at least 100 of a com.
mandatory nature, but a contest is a
contest and those who failed to land
among the winners this time must
bide their time until the opportunity
again avails.
The following Jingle toast to Miss
Swanson. composed by Miss Harriet
Banan. 1905 Webster street, was
awarded first prize of two free tickets
to 'Manhandled" at the Strand and a
personally autographed photo OF
Gloria:
Here's to Gloria Swanson.
The Paramount star we admire,
May her beauty and art-enslave
every heart.
Through the years Is our earnest
desire.
More than 20 were given considera
ton for the capital prize. And just
think of 1t girls, more answers were
received from the men than the fair
sex. Maybe the girls would rather
