Will Sell for Cash.
Experience has taught that to sell
for cash and cash only saves much
loss on bills that would be uncol
lectable, and a number of the busi
ness firms of Nehawka are to inaug
urate this system in their business.
On Wednesday April 1st, the firm of
J. H. Steffens adopted the system
and he will sell for cash and cash
only from now on. He has consid rad
the matter well and has decided that
this is the best plan. He is con
vinced that this plan wiil enable him
to reduce the price of his good6, as
there is always much loss in making
collections as well as some bills that
cannot be collected and this will be
saved. The other firm which is to
go on the cash basis the first of May
is the Nehawka Farmers Grain com
pany, and whiie this will be their
plan, they are interpreting cash to
mean within five days following the
purchase of the goods. In this case
also the party making the purchase
must be gilt edge or the goods will
not be delivered until the purchase
price has been fully paid.

London Leaking gas oags - ad
bad wea'her were held by v. coi . . of
inquiry lo have caused the R-161 to
crash near Boauv.iis, France. Oct. 5.
with loss of for. v-eight iive.:. The
conclusions in the bulky report, close
ly agree with the opinions ot Ur.
Hugo Eckener, who testified at the
inquiry. The report was unanimous.
The inquiry rourt argued from
the basis of certain "definitely es
tablished facts" of which four of
the most important were: The wea
ther was bad with strong wind; the
ship lost much gas thru the wearing
of holes in her gas bags and per-ians
thru her valves when she rolled; the
elevator wheel was handed lo a new
height coxswain at 2 a. m. Immed
iately before the fatal crash and the
fire did not break cut until the ship
truck the ground.
From there facts the board con
cluded any idea the ship broke in the
air from internal weakness, may be
rejected; and "theie is no reason to
attribute the accident to any failure
in competence of the olticers and
crew."
