LOO* WESTWARD!

Are you or your sons using proper energies towards finding land, in
dustrial or professional opportunities in localities adjacent to the Burlington
lines through Wyoming, Western Nebraska, Northern Nebraska, Northeastern |
Colorado or Southei u Montana ? I can put you in touch with excellent pros
pects in any of those sections. Mondell lands are going fast—so are the
irrigated lands.' Deeded lands in Western Nebraska are steadily increasing in
value. The towns of the North Platte Valley and the Big Horn Basin are all
growing and offer good business chances. The oil industry of Central Wyom
ing and the Big Horn Basin is very extensive. All this new money is greatly
widening the scope of business openings. The Burligton now has through
service between Nebraska and Casper, Central Wyoming via Alliance and
Wendover.
If you have before you the problem of the future, either for yourself or
your sons, let me help you.

When a woman wills she will and
when she won’t she will, but not as
much as a man.
There is no getting around it we
have to give it to the Women. It was
a woman who hunted up the grub
for Adam and also the clothes he
wore. It was a woman who helped
Columbus discovered America; it was
the women who started the wars; who
raised the soldiers and then got busy
and stopped the wars. It was the
women who defeated Hughes and
eelected Wilson. They are to blame
for everything good and everything
bad. If it was not for the women
where would we be. We would be in
the Garden of Eden with nothing to
Eat and Wear.
Eve wasn’t in the Garden 15 minutes
till she started looking for something
for her and Adam to eat and wear.
She knew they would soon get sick of
Apples, so she was in a hurry to get
out of the garden and get a change of
grub and scenery. Woman is natur
ally a provider. Before you were
born your mother was making clothes
for you. The better provider the wo
man is the better dresesd and fed the
menfolks are. I used to think they
didn’t know much but after being in
this business a year I found they are
a good deal quicker to grab a good
deal in grub or clothes than a man is.
They buy better stuff and never let
the pennies hide the dollars.
But it’s hard for a woman to pay
cash because the men won’t give them
the money. But say when they do get
the cash they know right where to go.
There is a few who have listened to
this “quality talk” for years and
years and it was hard to convince
them that they could buy better goods
for less money by paying cash. But
when they had been shown day after
day, week after week, for the last
fifteen months can you blame them for
coming here. No. Nobody blames a
man or woman for going to a cash
store when they have the cash. It’s
business. And the man or woman who
don’t run their home on business
principles is heading for the rocks.
Wealth is like the Irishman’s flea. It’s
here today and gone tomorrow. Wil
ful waste makes woeful want. You
may think because you are safe today
you are safe forever. Look back a
year. See who were on top a year ago.
They are down and out today. The
ones on the bottom who gathered and
saved are on top today. The road to
the top is hard to climb but the road
from the top to the bottom is slicker
than glass. And there is nothing will
start you on the slippery slide quicker
than buying in credit stores.

M. E. Church Notes.
Tom Thumb and his bride were
married in the little mock wedding
last Friday evening. There was a
large crowd to witness the ceremony,
and after the wedding feast served to
the “little guests” the whole congrega
tion went home pronouncing it an
evening of great delight. Every one
of the little tots participating in the
ceremony did his part exceptionally
well. In the afternoon the little bride
and groom stood in the window at R.
R. Morrison store and a large crowd
of people gathered to see them.
Last Sunday evening the Rev. Jno.
Crews, at one time pastor of this
church, preached a helpful sermon to
a large congregation. His sermon was
one of those old time kind, and the'
thoughts he offered were good.
The book of Revelation is our book
for study at the prayer meeting ser
vice on Wednesday evening. There
are many interesting and helpful
things in this book, and we want you
to come with us and help dig them
