    THE ALLIANCE II ERA LP, ALLIANCE, NEBRASKA, OCTOBER 23, 1919
There was almost a Firestone
Tire reunion at Course? & Miller's
parage this week, for no less than
four representatives of the company
were in the city: V. B. Alexander,
manager of the Firestone branch at
Omaha; James Ashley and wife', the
former transportation engineer out
of Akron; J. W. Calvert, salesman,
and wife; and L. E. Hlnman and
wife, who are spending their vaca
tion here. Mr. Hinman has charge
of the adjusting department In Oma
ha. Mr. A'xander returned to Oma
ha Monday evening. With the ex
ception of Mr. Hinman. it was a busi
ness trip for them. Coursey & Miller
are now Firestone distributors for
western Nebraska and southwestern
SonttuDakota. Cheyenne and Ban
ner counties have recently been add'
d to their territory. Mr. Calvert
will make his home in tue city. They
received a large shipment of Fire
stone tires the first of the week, and
expect to keep them coming in in
creasing Quantities. The landing of
the district agency, which makes Al
liance a distributing center for a
large western territory, is a tribute
to their hustling propensities, and
when the new sales force gets going,
it will be a big thing for the city as
well as for Coursey & Miller.
Greatest values ever offered are
to be had at our Discount Sale.

Three carloads of Reo trucks
an even dozen were unloaded the
first of the week and stacked two
deep In the storerooms of the A. H.
Jones company, of which Calvin u.
Walker is the local manager. They
are expecting a lively business in
trucks and want io be prepared to
make deliveries when deliveries are
wanted, which is usually right away.
The automobile man has the same
troubles as the printer a man may
wait months or a year before he puts
in an order, but when once he makes
up his mind, he wants it right off the
bat, pronto, as it were.

Friday, October 31, will be a red
letter day at the Central school. On
the evening of that day, at the school
building, there will be staged a baiar
or carnival, or something of that
sort, and at least a dozen big fea
tures are promised by those who have
the entertainment in charge. There
will be no admission charge to the
building. The object of the enter
tainment is to secure funds with
which to purchase the Central Bchool
another piano. They have one al
ready, and it Is doing the best it can,
but inasmuch as there are thirteen
rooms, It doesn't quite fill the need.

This week there are two addi
tions to The Herald force, A. R.
Munson, a linotype operator who has
been 'working in Lincoln since his
discharge from the navy a few weeks
ago, and Jimmy Pierce, who is one
of the best two-handed pressmen we
have ever run across. Munson is one
of the few operators who can make
a typesetting machine stand up on
its hind legs and bark. This makes
no less than four soldiers and sail
ors on The Herald staff, and every
man knows his business. When
ever you have any work in our line,
step to the nearest phone and ask
the operator for Noj 340 and we'll
be over, we don t care how small
the Job is we want it and are will
ing to go out of our way to please
you. .

The prospective ordinance to do
away with the riding of bicycles on
the sidewalk does not contemplate
interference with the youngsters
who ride the "skeeter-skoots" or
those who roller skate. It aims only
to do away with bicycle riding. Some
folks who have undergone the ex
perience say that it is exceedingly
destructive of mental tranquility to
have a bicycle sneak up behind them
on a dark night, without light or
bell, and not even turn out.
Anyone who has used ordinary
carbon paper for making duplicate
copies has suffered and has probably
resorted to profanity. Last week a
salesman dropped in on us with a
carbon paper that comes as near per
fection as carbon paper can. Among
the chief advantages of the new
brand Is the fact that the carbon
won't rub off on the fingers. An
other is that it is so constituted that
It won't permit the paper next to it
to silo. When you make hall a
dozen copies, the last one is reason
ably clear and is legible, not smeary,
due to the hard surface of the car
bon and its gripping qualities. We
have this stuff for Bale here and if
you want it in boxes, we'll be glad
to see that you get it promptly. It's
worth a trial, at least.

City Manager Smith has begun
a Correspondence looking to the pur
chase of a belt conveyor to be used
In delivering coal for the city plant
from the cars. The cost will be
around a thousand dollars, and the
conveyor will pay for itself within a
year. At the present time It costs
the city 20 cents a ton for all the
coal unloaded front cars, and this
amounts to about $80 per month.
Under the new plan, the coal will be
dumped into a large pit and the belt
conveyor will take It from the pit
and deliver It where needed. Another
source of expense of the present sys
tem Is in demurrage charges, for it
Is often impossible to unload the cars
promptly when they come several at
a time.

Your Greatest Expense
in operating an automobile will invariably prove to be
YOUR TJRE UPKEKP. The initial cost of Tires like
most things we use has been greatly advanced. To off
set this rise, and at the same time leave you a little unex
pected surplus,
You Can Strike Right at the
Heart of the Difficulty
by seeing to it that you get every bit of mileage from
your tires that intelligent and painstaking repair service
can give you.
"We insist that every repair and retreading job which
leaves the shop come up to our standards of excellence.
