Cut-off on Lincoln Highway
C. H. Lindburg, of Polk, spent Fri
day III town Interesting auto men In
a proposed cut-off on tho Lincoln
highway which would shorten by
twenty imllos tha distance between
Omaha and Central City. This cut
off starts at Valley and drops south to
Valparaiso and thoneo straight west
through ulyssos, Stromsburg nnd Polk
to Contml City. This avoids tho big
end at Fremont and North Bend. This
cut-off, however, does not supersede
tho regular Lincoln Highway route
from Omaha via Fremont, but simply
.shortens the routo for those who care
to take advantage of tho cut-off, and
It Is bolloved will make the Lincoln
Highway a stronger competitor with
tho O. L. D. route for tho Denver
travel.

We try never to use superla
tives, regardless how strongly we
feel concerning the long life antl
the ultimate value of Dodge
Brothers car. But some of our
owners and others who are sitting
on the side lines watching the
performance of the various cars
do sometimes give word to their
icelings.
For instance, today an old
automohile man said to me, "For
every day and an all around car,
the Dodge car is in a class hy
itself."
Such testimony as this sounds
good to the dealer, but more
pleasant still arc the voluntary
statements made to me dozens of
times right here at my place, by
men driving other cars, that "My
next car is going to be a Dodge,
they stand up".
An early order is your only
protection on an early delivery.
