' DO YOU ABUSE YOUR WATCH? You guard it carefully against jars, blows . and Tails. But do you protect it against1 constant wear? A watch can ruin itself by running too long without being cleaned and oiled. If you can't remember how long it has been since your watch was cleaned if you know it has been a year or longer step into Clinton's today and have it examined. Don't t wait for signs of distress that means you have waited too long. -There is no place in North Platte where you can . secure such skillful and careful watch, clock and jewelry repairing as Clinton does.
