Investors in this association get tho benefits of the following requirements of the laws of Nebraska under which it is operating: First. -The association is required to invest only in first mortgages on real estate or the stock of this associa tion. Second. Such investments are non-negotiable and non-assignable, and can only be discharged by payment direct to the association. This is a very important pro tection not available to any financial institution except Building & Loan Associations. Third. The association is subject to the supervision of the State Backing Board. How well the interests of the investors in this as sociation have been safeguarded is evidenced by the fact that In the more than thirty thrqe years of its operation not one dollar has been lost. T.

This move Avas decided upon nfter consul tation with many of tho business .men hero and nftor thoy had expressed tho opinion that It could bo handled In that way satisfactorily to tho people ot Maxwell and vicinity.

Of course, thoro will bo u few things soiling pos- sloly a fow cents cheaper, nut prices gonorally appear to have reached a solid foundation now, and if changes como throughout the sprllig and sum mor months If will bo toward a high er lovol. For this reason tho man who has boon on a "buying strlko" should him self get back to normal. Wo realize that the tlmo for wild spending has gono by. War and nil its borrors has gone. Wo can't forKot it, but wo can leavo it in tho past llko nny other bad tnomory, and got back on tho job once more. No merchant is going to en courage you in foolish spending, nut we bollovo you will bo wso In accept ing their verdict that prices havo at last reached the stable point, and that fluctuations will now bo small either way.
