OMHA DIDN'T MARK
A STOP AT UF.Itl.VO
Dr. George L. Condra, of the Uni
versity of Nebraska had a couple of
Gertng newspapermen badly fright
ened the latter part of last week.
"Doc" was making an airplane tour
of the state, taking pictures and
mapping out landing stations for air
planes. He was In Alliance Friday
and phoned over to The Midwest
shop that he would be In Gerlng In
about half an hour, and requesting
that a lot of gasoline and oil be at
the landing place at the Country club
for him. "I've got only a little
time and I want you to be sure and
have the stufT ready," phoned "Doc."
So the gasoline and the oil w ie
arranged for and this editor and the
editor of the cheerful contemporary
over on the other street hiked out
to the-'country club about 3 p. m
and waited. They waited, ahd wait
ed, and waited, and then Hngcrel
until dusk. "Doc" didn't show up.
"Must have struck a Bandy place,"
observed Asa. '
"Engine stopped and he couldn't
find a cloud to stand on while he
cranked up," ventured this editor.
The two disappointed newspa no
men ambled back to town, rat lit v
worried about their old friend
Condra. Saturday arrived, as per
schedule, but no "Doc". Vision
of a pilot and a Unl professor lying
under a wrecked plane somewhere
In the sandhills flitted before tb
editorial eyes. The telegraph and
telephone wires were requisitioned
No news. Where'n thunder's Condra?
Sunday morning this editor wp.
awakened to sign for a telegram.
He was afraid to open It, feelinp
In his boneB that "Doc" had beer
located with a varied assortment or
broken bones. He had been located,
all right, but no broken bones. He
started for Gerlng as he planned, bti'
saw a storm coming, so he headed to
the southwest and flew home to Lin
coln. The next time "Doc" leaves u
In a state of suspense he don't.
We've learned to quit wominr
about him. He always gets through.

L MOTOR
b
With a Low, Even Hum
Motors lubricated with Polarine run easily smoothly quietly.
Polarine is not an ordinary lubricant. It is made from selected
crude oil by processes that have taken many years to perfect.
Standard conditions keep its unexcelled quality uniform.
To meet the requirements of all makes of cars and trucks,
Polarine is made in four grades, differing in body but not in
quality. These grades are
Polarine Polarine Heavy
Polarine Medium Heavy Polarine Extra Heavy
For winter use the Polarine and Polarine Medium Heavy
grades are recommended.
; Imperfect compression is a costly source of lost power. It is
only one of the many bad results of using low grade motor
oils. Preserve the life of every moving motor part by using
Polarine regularly.
Get all the satisfaction you expected out of your car by using
Red Crown gasoline. With Polarine, it makes possible the
' finest performance of which your car is capable always.
