James Furlong
Has Real Success
in Business V orld
Former C ,ss County I.Ian Zissx Herd
cf Large Industrial Company
at Denver, Cclorcido.
Some twenty-five years ago there
left this community a young man,
James Furlong, son of S. L. Fuilong.
one of the pioneers of old Rock
Bluffs, to find his way westward and
uliere he hoped to find success and
make his home. The ambition of this
voting man and his hard and persist
ent efforts seems to l ave resulted in
his climbing the ladder of success
and attaining a great way on his
path of leadership in the business
lines that he has adopted.
Mr. Furlong is the president of the
Piudential Industrial company and
which organization is one of the
most growing organizations of its
kind in the west and is rapidly grow
ing each year and has a capital of
?250.000 at Denver.
That the years have given Mr.
Furlong the opportunity for some
play periods, is shown by a letter
received here by Mark Furlong, a
brother, in which he is informed
that Mr. and Mrs. James Furlong
were to leave in a very short time
for a tour around the world and
which will be a real treat and take
some time as the Furlong family will
visit all of the best known coun
tries before they return to their
home in the west.
The success and the pleasure that
has come to this former Cass county
man will be learned of with a great
deal of pleasure by the old friends

the outstanding features of the new

runs 20 to SO miles an hour on a
gallon of gasoline.
This car, which is to succeed the
famous Model T line, will be shown
on Friday by Ford dealers in many
of the lerger cities of the country.
In Plattsmouth photographs and de
scriptive charts of the new cars will
be on display at the Plattsmouth
Motor Company showrooms, where
the public will be given the com
plete story of the new Ford car.
Later various models of the new Ford
line will be on display here.
So far the new cars have been ex
amined only by those who will have
charge of the first showings and dem
onstrations. Salesmen and demon
strators are studying charts- and dia
grams which will be used in explain
ing the various details of design, ap
pearanee and performance.
For months factory models of the
new car have been undergoing se
vere performance tests in and around
Detroit. One of these factory mod
els recently made a road run of 120
miles in 12 4 minutes. This run, it
is said, was made on an ordinary
paved highway near Detroit.
Local dealers, in commenting on
the forthcoming show, said their first
view of the new Ford car had sub
stantiated Henry Ford's statement
that "there is nothing quite like it
in quality and price."
"Mr. Ford's statement had pre
pared us for a surprise," said the
local dealer, "but the new Ford car
is better even than we had hoped
for. It is certain to make history in
the automotive industry, just as its
predecessor, the famous Model T, has
made history for twenty years. We
are proud of the new car and feel
1 certain that its appearance and per
' forir.ar.ee will attrac t unprecedented
attention among automobile own
ers." IOWA YOUTH AEEE5TED

eniest of the state department of pub- ;
lie works along the higher ground
of the Stull farm near the Missouri 1
Picific light of way on the Platte'
bottom north of this city. The road
was previously located along the
low bottom land east of the present
road and which gave the county and
state considerable trouble to main
tain and which led to the decision to
have the new graveled road laid on
higher ground.
The county instituted condemna
tion proceeding' in the road matter
and a board cf appraisers was ap
pointed by the county judge and
who visited the Stull farm and ex
amined the line of the proposed road

eight acres of land needed for the
road at the sum of S1.S25.
