Comment - - and Discomment There's a crusade being started in Scottsbluft. We do nol refer to the efforts of the Scottsbluff police to curb the manufacture and sale of that pernicious potato whisky, al though it is pretty bad when the average pent with a war garden be gins to figure his spud crop in gal lons Instead of bushels. We are re ferring to the startling headlines over a communication to the sugar city's daily newspaper, which has a habit of making up for paucity of news by making the aeadline notice able. Not that they are to be con demned for that a number of news paper men are guilty on that count. "City has wealth of he vamps and mashing gentry," reads the big type. The story tells the tale, after a lash Ion. It seems that every evening, as soon as it gets cool, the males climb into their cars and ride along the main streets, seeking for pretty girls. That's a remarkable taing for men to do. What's still more remark able, they find them. On our few visits to Scottsbluff we don't recall seeing any large bevies of beautiful damsels, but they must be there. Men don't usually hunt unless there is some prospect for game. So many people jump at appear ance. Simply because a young man lakes a young lady out auto riding, Its no proof that he is an evU-miuu-e.i villian. Granted that th.- moon atfects him strangely, and that in the Ilm light the young lady appears at tractive, and he put ais arm around her, that doesn't mean that there is skulduggery abroad. Young people have a habit of doing those things. They'd probably do their spooning on the family front porch If it weren't for prying neighbors. Trouble with the old girl who wrote that letter to tae newspaper is that she doesn't seem to understand that the young folks fall hardest in the spring and summer. The long winter evening are an aid to Cupid, of course, but the automobile and the ice cream parlor are likewise deadly. The movies would be, too, if they weren't so infernally warm and sticky. We refuse to believe that the Scottsbluff youth are headed for per dition, or that it's any worse to drive an automobile with one hand than it used to be to throw tae reins over the dashboard. If it were a crime to fall in love or kiss a pretty girl, nine out of ten Alliance men would be in Jail right now, or willing to run the risk. Just because a freckl ed lad is mushy is no sign that he's a masher. And every girl who smiles back isn't a vamp. It takes training and talent to vamp success fully. We can prove it.

Balanced! That means to you more than mere thickness of tread, great er air capacity, more plies of fabric, greater cushioning, or the gauge of the sidewall. It means that all component parts of the Firestone 3& are scientifically balanced by special ists who have put years of study and practice into a single purpose--to meet your demand in a small car tire. You can now have all four tires on your car give uniform service if they are Firestone. ; X-'-, ' '"' 1 ''" '" '''lrf'iii t , Zj' U ij .l.S)krAtiutljjij ' aaajaaMMM SMr 7 xl nrl inu J TURKISH & DOMISTICfA l BLEND M f A ei oaett S nWWHT'-WplHI Slim 'r'r T J A - v , , r' No sir-ee, bob!
