p'clock Thursday evening for the
purposoi of organizing a camp of the

ble to membership. In tho Legion and

ing. Camps of tho Legion aro now
being formed by tho boys overseas as
well as by thoso in tho larger towns
and tho cities hero at homo and tho
camp at Omaha has requested an or
ganization in this county as well as
in every county in tho state. Aftei
tho counties aro organized delegates
will be sent to a general meeting to bo
hold at Omaha or some other point
whore a state department will bo or
ganized. Every state in the union
will l)o organized and the general
plan of formation will probably be
along the lino "of tho Grand Army of
tho Republic, the membership of
which was composed of tho survivors
of tho northern army in the civil
war. The O. A. It. before its ranks
were decimated by deaths due to ad
vanced age of the members, was tho
most powerful organization this coun
try has ever known and did more to
keep alive tho spirit of patriotism for
country than any other" agency. Tho
American Legion can, and no. doubt
will, prove Just as beneficial to the
country.
ilt is hoped that overy returned sol

For the greater protection of owners of Ford cars, that they may receive
the largest possible service from their cars, the Ford Motor Company has
adopted the liberal policy of selling to any responsible Qarage throughout the
United States, the genuine Ford Parts, upon such Garages- agreeing to give
the real Ford service.
This accomplishes two splendid res ults. First, the widest possible satisfac
tory service to the owners of Ford cars; Second, a larger and more profitable
businessifor every Garage.
The millions of Ford cars in daily operation mean a larger volume of ser
vice business throughout the country. The number of authorized Ford dealers
is not sufficient to care for this immense volume of service trade, but now,
wherever the Ford owner may drive, in any directipn, in any state or territory,
he will be within arm's reach of reliable service with the benefits which come
from the use of genuine Ford Parts. There is now no reason why .every Ford
owner may not demand and insist upo n genuine, Ford Parts being used when
his car requires attention.
We will be pleased o supply any reliable Garage in our territory with the
genuine Ford Parts promptly.

YICTOKV LOAN CAMPAIGN
- PROGRESSES HATHElt SLOWLY
l3p to last evening subscriptions to
tho Victory loan notes in Lincoln jpoun
ty so far as reported amounted to less
than ono hundred thousand dollars,
more than four-fltfhs of which had
been subscribed in the city. This rep
resents tho subscriptions up to last
Saturday evening, and to say tho least"
is not very encouraging noi1 docs-ii
lndlcato that Lincoln county will
raise its quota, tl is true that hero in
town tho soliciting has not been com
pleted, but so far as. It has gono, tho
returns have not been as satisfac
tory as expected. Not many aro re
fusing to subscribe, but tho amount
! they take is so much loss than In
former campaigns that the total does
I not mount rapidly.
I Returns from tho banks In the coun
jty outside of North Platto lndlcato
j that tho campaign is also progressing
, slowly in tho county precincts, those.
I returns to date averaging nbout one-
tenth of the quota that was allotted to
tho respective banks.
Chairman Temple felt rather dis
appointed yesterday over tho manner
in which Lincoln county people wero
subscribing. They had done so well
in previous campaigns that ho was led
to bellcvo that the same onthuslaBni
would be shown in the present drive,
extra effort will be made this week to
induce the people-to buy and to influ
ence those "who have already bought
to buy more.
