This year, Nebraska movie-go-
ers will be asked by no less fam
Gus personages than Cary Grant

Through a program of alternating
them in various theatres. they
will actually be seen in well over
one hundred Nebraska theatres,
he added.
The services of the three highly
paid stars was donated free of
charge in making the movie trail
er which is further evidence of
the interest shown by celebrities
in the fight against tuberculosis,
financed by the sale of Christmas
Seals.
Nebraska's Christmas Seal Sale
opened on November 25, and will
continue through Christmas. Sale
of Christmas Seals is the only
source of ven for the Nebras-
ka tuberculosis Association and
local associations throughout the
state in financing tuberculin skin

as other phases in the reverend
ing struggle to eradicate this pre-
ventable disease.
Last year. said Mr.. Nicholson,
there were 446 new cases of tu-
berculosis in Nebraska, and 173
deaths. Up to November 2 of this
year. there are already 523 new
cases, or N more than during all
of last year. By buying Christmas
Seals. people can help find early
cases of tuberculosis before they

Most Taverns
Do More Than
Barely Keep
Within the Law

Nebraska has one Of the best
liquor control laws in the
nation. This law, together with
rules adopted BY the liquor
control commission, clearly
specifies the rights and duties
of all beer licensees.
Too many licensees once
seemed mainly interested in
knowing, Glow far can I go
and not get in trouble?"
The situation steadily i'm
proves. Now most beer retail
ers are well informed on the
liquor control laws and rules.
They seek to obey every one
not simply because they fear
penalties but because they know
careful law observance is the
surest way to win and hold
public good will.
This Improvement in tavern
operations can be partly
credited to the Nebraska Com
mittee's program Of Self-Reg-
ulation. Eight years of this
program has helped build in
Nebraska one of the beer in
dustry's most valued assets.
