Hi 4 1 s; ass stf ss: I 5 yf am ri chassis a lit OUR CONSTITUTION It is the fashion in this day talk much about the constitution the United States. Two extreme views are commonly heard. One is to the effect that the constitution is a sacred document, of more or less supernaturad origin and must not be touched except for very infrequent amendments. The other extreme view is that the constitution is an outworn doc ument, not much good for these snappy times. The constitution is not perfect or sacred or has anything supernatural about it except the supernatural spirit which is a part of every man and which had something to do with influencing the devoted patroits who made the cinstitution from May to August in 17S7. Nor is the constitution a worn out document no longer good for these modern days. The constitution is a remarkable document. It has endured in amaz ing fashion. The government which it provided for this nation is prac tically unchanged today. Such vision and such foresight have rarely if ever, been evidenced in the affairs of men. The constitution is not perfect but it is so good that we have not caught up with it. The greatest thing about it is the spirit the fathers breathed into it They gave it veritable life. It was the spirit of devotion to the idea of making a government fair and just and harmonious for all men. Our task is to keep that spirit alive, to preserve and move forth with the vision which inspired Franklin, Madison, Washington. Hamilton and those men of high intelligence who made up the little convention of I persons which framed the work. Perhaps nothing is more notable about the constitution than its ad mirable restraint. It had originally but 400 words. It could be read aloud in two on three minutes. Gladstone was right in calling it the greatest piece of work of its kind ever struck off by the hand and brain of man. It is not perfect. It may be tinker ed with. But vastly more important than changing it is an earnest ef fort to live in obedience to its fun damental principles. :o: "FOREIGN" CRIMINALS Better Buick operating coiti are very low. This car is thrifty both in purchase price and in ownership. Buick design protects all oper ating parts from dust and wear barricades them with iron or steel housings in the famous Buick "Sealed Chassis" and "Triple Sealed Engine". from a given quantity of gaso line. And now, the Buick oil filter makes it necessary to change crankcase oil only at tare in tervals. Even smaller, less powerful cars do not match the Better Buick in low cost of operation and maintenance. You add to your power to economize when you buy a Better Buick! The Buick Valve-In-Head en gine develops more power BUICK MOTOR COMPANY, FLINT, MICHIGAN Dikiook of General Motor Corporation J. B. LIVINGSTON Buick Dealer Corner 4th tod Mala Street Plitismouth, Nebnska "Note the names of our criminals. Are they foreign or American? What do the public records show?'- Allen L. Benson, in the Dearborn Independent. Probably "foreign." as there are no Indian names among them. But if they are recently arrived foreigners," it is interesting to note that they seem to wait till they reach America to commit their crimes. Cer tainly no country of Europe, with the exception of Russia, has anything per capita as the United States in tho way of criminals. It is only fair, however, to state here that it has long been the policy of many Euro pean governments to encourage their more undesirable elements to migrate to the United State; but it is only fair again to state that this country has also received hundreds of thous ands of honest and useful people from ine oia worm, ana again that our native stock is by no means irre proachable. The "foreign" element in this country produces a higher percentage of criminals and defectives that the native stock produces. We do not think this can be disputed. But the crime problem is not so simple as it appears to those who blame our aliens alone for our bad record. The real task of the scientist in hia laboratory is the conversion of the products of the earth into forms for human use. One of the real tasks of writing men today is to familiarize folks with the possibilities of the sources of power and energy that lie all about them. Henry Ford pointed to a potato patch the other day and said: " "There's enough alcohol in one year's yield of an acre of potatoes to drive the machinery necessary to cultivate the field for 100 years." When he said that, Mr. Ford was just giving a simple and definite Il lustration of what many keen, ana lytical minds in America know. Scientifically-minded men do not worry about the consumption and gradual disappearance of crude oil in this country. They do not even worry about the enormous inroads which industry is making in the coal supply of the earth. In the first place they know that the great underground laboratories of nature are producing more for gen erations unborn. In the second place, as far as their own times and their children's times are concerned, they know there is fuel in every bit of vegetable matter in and on the earth that can be fermented. Furthermore, they know that the exhaustless possibilities of electricit have been touched but lightly on the surface. We are just beginning to see the possibilities of transportation by electricity. The heating, cooking, manufacturing possibilities of elec tricity are in an even more embryonic state. An able chemist remarked not long ago: "We shall be able to run our auto mobiles cheaply from alcohol that can be manufactured from garbage- or almost anvthing else. We have only to solve the problem of making it cheaply." As men become more trained and better trained in science they will make it possible for this wonderous industrial civilization of ours to go without losing a single stride even after the coal and the oil and what we think are the very fundamentals of industry are gone. :o: BOOM OR NORMAL TUDOR SEDAN Touring $290 Runabout - 260 Coupe - - 520 Tudor Sedan 580 Fordor Sedan 660 Closed cars in color.

Money to buy pours in in a perfect flood. Everybody ought to be happy, only some financial experts are wondering if there isn't some sort of an abnor mal boom on. that will end in a smash and bring woe to a lot of in vestors. Well, is there? Or isn't it possible that it's just a case of this country being solidly prosperous, from top to bottom, with money pouring in from all over the world. Lots of jobs, high wages, business enterprises humming? This is a rich country. Maybe in vestors are just beginning to realize the fact.
