Lincoln--Care in passing on ap-
plications for new and renewal
beer licenses is urged in a letter to
Nebraska Mayor by Charles L.
Sandal, state director of the Nebr-
aska Committee, u. s.. Brewers
Foundation. He heads the brewing
industry's self regulation program
in the state.
Mr.. Sandal suggests to officials
that "the renewing of a beer lie
ems should depend entirely upon
the past record of the applicant,
He urges mayors and city councils
to remember that no applicant has
a right under law to demand a lie
ense, for a license is a privilege
and not a property right.
State Director Sandal asks spec-
ial attention to Section 90 of the
Nebraska liquor control act. This
provides that before local licensing
authorities shall recommend to the
liquor control commission the is
suance Of a license, they shall sat-
isfy themselves and shall certify
to the commission as to ~. the
moral character and financial re-
sponsibility of the applicant; (2)
the appropriateness of the location
taking into consideration the mum
Der of licenses already issued, and
% generally as to the applicants
fitness for the trust to be reposed
Strict adherence to the forego-
ing will give Nebraska the sound

Dear Mr.. Galloway:
Thanks for lending a helpful
hand in the fight against infantile
paralysis. We needed your help
this year as never before and we're
sincerely grateful for your contri-
button to the March of Dimes.
Your ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS helps
make it possible for the National
Foundation for Infantile Paralysis
to renew its guarantee of the best
available care and treatment to
every person stricken with infan-
tile paralysis. The contributions
received in the March of Dimes
will help pay for disqualification,
vital equipment, medical care, sur
gerry and physical therapy for polio
patients wherever and whenever
necessary. These funds will also
enable us to lend financial assist
ance to scientific research projects
which we hope will some day cul-
inmate in the eradication of infan-
tile paralysis from the face of the
earth.
With renewed faith in your con-
tinued support, countless patients
of every race, creed and color look
forward to the happy prospect Of
regaining the use of crippled limbs
Again, thanks for your help.
Sincerely yours.

I started going with him. Every

him but I never caught him doing
anything wrong. Recently I saw
him with another girl on Sunday.
He carried her to one of the cheap
shows. He always carried me to
the downtown shows. He claims
he loves me but hasn't been around
for quite awhile until lately. He
even told my mother he was not
in love with me but now he tells
me that he is and says he wants to
marry me.

even that doesn't help. My hus-

have an apartment but we can't

forever about his money Lots of

Spring Beauty

At this time of the year a glance
in the mirror can be very discour-
aging. After a long winter spent
indoors, many women find that
their compilations have become
dull and drab. Stuffy, Steamboat

best of skins and frequently leave
them dry and lifeless.
But there's ne need to wait for
spring breezes to Danish that mid
winter look. A completely new
extra-gentle cream will coax rough
chapped skin back to a glowing,
natural radiance. Snow White
Lemon Creme is especially created
to help you have fresher looking.

It's Your Duty
To Help Choose
Good Licensees

Licenses soon will be issued to
the tavern-keepers who will
sell the beer in your town next
year. You and your neighbors
NOT the beer industry-will
select the licensees.
The Nebraska Committee,
dedicated to maintaining the
beer industry on a high plane
of public acceptance, has asked
all Nebraska mayors to check
carefully on the qualifications
and past records of licensees.
In addition, all citizens are
urged to cooperate with their
licensing bodies now. You do
not want-no one wants
careless or incompetent beer
licensees.
So you are urged to attend the
public hearing that will be held
in your town to consider all
new and renewal licenses. You
are urged to report any condi-
tons that should be improved.
Taverns in your community
can be as good as the majority
of the citizens want them. We
urge you to do your part.

Marriage should not be taken
frivolously-it is serious bust
ness. When you are quite
sure you have found the one
person in the world that can

money" ABBE' WALLACE.
X. l.. WI am in love with a
nice young boy who is now in the
army. We are engaged to be mar
ried and I want to know if he will
make me a nice husband or do you
think it would be best for me t.
go on to school. I am Is and he
is Is.
Ans: Right now your education
is very important indeed. Con-
tinue in school and try to prepare
yourself to be able to make your
own way. in Use it should ever be-
come necessary for you to do so
Making a home and preparing for
babies is a big responsibility for q
lassie just turned fifteen. II
would be better for you and your
soldier-boy lover to wait-anothel
six months at least.
E. W.-Some weeks ago I went
with my husband to visit his faith
er on the farm. My husband likes
it fine up there and I do too. Now
his father wants us to come ul
there and live. I want to know if
you think we should sell out here
and go to the farm.
Ans: Selling out is a bold ven
ture. 1t would be more practical
to rent out your property through
a real estate agency and then try
your luck at farming. At the end
of a year you will be in a position
to know for sure whether you wish
to stay on and farm or return to
town. The farm prospects for
1947 are very favorable and your
chances for succeeding are excel
lent N~onetheless, it is good busi-
ness policy to safeguard your town
property investment until you are
absolutely sure of yourselves.
