BETTER KEEP THE
Simply by Buying Whenever Pos
sible the Goods That Are
Made In Nebraska.
This has been a glorious year
for Nebraska. The Almighty has
smiled upon her soil and upon her
people. Nebraskans have already
harvested a crop of oats and
wheat and rye and barley that
wili approximate .$100, 000,000 in
value. They will mow and cure
$ 55,000,000 worth or hay. The
corn crop will be worth another
K0,00O,ooo. Her sugar beefs
and buller and eggs and poultry
and live stock will bring many
millions more. In short. Nebraska
II produce from her soil in this
good year of 1912 more than half
a billion dollars' worlh.
To the largest possible extent
Nebraska's crop money should be
kept sit home lo further the work
of developing the state and build
ing up her business institutions.
How may Ihis be done?
Simply by buying, whenever
possible, the goods made in Ne
braska; and always buying of Ne
braska dealers. "Home patron
age" is the slogan that, should be
upon the lips and in the heart of
every loyal Ncbraskan. And we
can come mighty near buying
everything we need to eat and
wear and use from Nebraska
manufacturers. If we were doing
our duty to our home institutions
we could buy everything wo must
have from Nebraska manufactur
ers, says Will Maupin's Weekly.
Mr. Farmer, every time you
purchase a bill of goods from a
Nebraska dealer, or buy the prod
uct of a Nebraska manufaclurer,
you are building up a local mar
ket for your products. Every
lime you send a dollar out of Ne
braska you are decreasing the
purchasing capacity of the
cuslomers easiest for you lo
reach; and you are sending out
of Nebraska money that will
never return.
Mr. Purchaser, every time you
buy the product of a foreign
manufacturer you art limiting
the opportunity of Nebraskans lo
find work, thus reducing business
and retarding development.
Mr. Retailer, every time you
discriminate against the product
of Nebraska manufacturers you
are pulling limits upon (he num
ber of your own cuslomers. for
the employes of the factories of
I he east buy no lea and coffee, no
ginghams and silks, no shoes or
foods! tiffs across your counters.
Keep Nebraska's crop money at
home, for it means greater busi
ness activity. It means the pro
motion of new manufacturing
establishments. It means agri
cultural and industrial develop
ment. It means enlarged avenues
of employment for wage earners,
which means greater business for
retailers.
Home patronage is so logical,
so well founded in common-sense,
that it ought lo be advocated by
every man, woman and child in
Nebraska.

THE PHILOSOPHY
OF IS IS
SO
Subject of Address Delivered Be
fore the C. E. Society at the
Presbyterian Church.
A most excellent service was
held at the Presbyterian church
last evening, which was very
largely attended. The members
oT the C. E. society of the Chris
tian church had been invited' to
join with the C. E. society of the
Presbyterian church in this serv
ice, at which time they listened to
a splendid address given by Mr.
James A. Smith, his subject being
" The Philosophy of Christ's Mis
sion to Earth."
The service was opened with the.
singing of a number of familiar
hymns and a prayer by Rev. A.
L. Zink of the Christian church.
Just previous to I he address given
by Mr. Smith, Miss Hazel Tuey
rendered a beautiful vocal solo.
Miss Tuey has a very sweet voice
and her vocal selection was very
much appreciated by those for
tunate enough lo be present to
hear her.
Mr. Smilh said in substance:
"The question which I am here to
discuss is whether (he world need
ed !he coining of Chris! or not.
There is no place on the face of
the earth but where the people
understand that they are re
sponsible for their nets. The
most benighted savage does things
lo appease the wrath of (he God
he worships for the sins which
he has done. He cuts himself
with knives and in other ways
does things for penitence that he
may escape from Hie sentence of
sinful acts done by him."
Mr. Smilh said that he believed
I hat Christ was the son of God, a
messenger to Ihis world from the
Father and Creator, but outside of
this he offered a few ideas to
prove I he philosophy of I lie theory
that it was necessary that Christ
should have come anyway. Man
had wandered away from God and
it w as necessary I hat someone
should come that would bring a
message wbieh would be a per
petual one, with its influence
broadening with the sweep of I ho
ages. He cited an instance whero
500 years before the coming'of
Christ that one established an
order which sought to give and
leach equal and exact justice be
tween Iheir fellow men. This did
not sland, but went lo pieces, as
all oilier things had before, but
with the coining of Christianity
was insfiluled an order of things
which have grown with the ages.
Among Hie other things, lie said
that the Christianity of Ihe pres
ent day needed more' of Ihe actual
Christian spirit and less theoreti
cal theology. In fact, a starving
person needed more potatoes and
bread than they did of songs and
prayers. x Jones Elevator at Mynard.
The Jones elevator at Mynard
will change management about
Ihe 15lh oT Ihis month, when Nel
son Murray slops down and out
and lion. C. E. Metzger assumes
management. Mr. Melzger Is well
filled for Ihe position, as he has
been all along Ihe line in handling
grain and buying and selling.
While Mr. Murray is a competent
gentleman and is not quilting the
place on that account, the Jones
people are very fortunate in se
curing so competent a successor.
