Melvin Ruzicka Attends
Omaha Gamble Meeting
Melvin Ruzicka, managing part
ner of the local Gamble store, re
turned this week from the annual
two day convention of Gamble
Store managers ahd Gamble Agen
cy Store owners which was held
February 14 and 15 at the Fonten
elle hotel in Omaha.
This meeting brought together
managers and agency owners from
this entire territory and is one of
seven similar meetings held thru
out the north and middlewest dur
ing the month of February at
Chicago, Omaha, Bismark, Denver,
Billings, Montana, Pacatello, Idaho
and Minneapolis, Minn. These
meetings are held each year for
the purpose of reviewing past
year’s activities and discussing new
ideas, plans and methods of oper
ation for the coming year. Rep
resentativs of the general office of
Gamble Stores from Minneapolis
were present. They included R.
C. Teuscher, F. F. Dreblow, C. T.
Gibson, L. D. Nelson, C. C. Ragust,
Bert Gamble, Phil Skogmo, M. 0.
Weiby, W. I. Meline, L. W. John
son, C. L. Feldtkeller, A. J. Reiber
and G. P. Castner.
During the course of the meetings
the activities for this year were
reviewed and new plans outlined
for expansion and merchandising
for 1938. These plans will include
not only the expansion in the num
ber of Gamble Stores, but also a
continued expansion in the number
of individually owned Gamble
Agency Stores. Plans were laid
also for the modernizing of store
interiors, store fixtures, lighting
systems, and the enlargement of
many present store locations.
This convention is the 13th an
nual meeting of the organization
since the first Gamble store was
opened in St. Cloud, in 1925. At
that time only automobile supplies
and accessories were handled. The
organization was an outgrowth of
the parts department of the auto
mobile business in which B. C.
Gamble and P. W’. Skogmo, found
ers of the company were engaged
in 1925.
From this small beginning the
company has grown to its present
size of 261 Gamble Stores and As
sociate Gamble Stores and 1378
individually owned Gamble Agency
Stores. Merchandise lines have
been enlarged considerably until
now they include radios, electrical
THE WORLD S DEEPEST OIL WELL

The Continental OiPcompany has
just completed drilling the world's
deepest oil well, the Kern No. 2-A,

13,400 feet—more than two and a
half miles—and the most distant
point to which man has ever pene

of the three major subsurface for

appliances, washing machines,
hardware, sporting goods, paint,
etc. The company has also recent
ly developed a mail order depart
ment, business of which has greatly
increased during the past year. In
addition to this, a line of cosmetics
has been added to many stores as
well as a complete stock of furni
ture and home furnishings. Gamble
outlets now operate throughout the
entire middlewestern and north
western states, reaching almost to
the Pacific coast on the west, Ohio
on the east, the Canadian border on
the north, and Kansas and Missouri
on the south. Mr. Gamble and Mr.
Skogmo, founders of the company,
report very satisfactory progress
during the past year. A consider
able increase was shown in both
wholesale and retail sales during
1937. Sales of some major appli
ances were increased materially
with electric refrigerators showing
a large increase. The introduction
of the new Coronado Water Flex
Washer, the washer without an
agitator, helped to increase wash
ing machine sales over 1936. The
founders of the company also re
port that present indications make
the business outlook for 1938 as
being favorable. They base this
opinion on the fact that sales for
the month of January of 1938 were
very satisfactory, showing a sub
stantial increase over sales for the
same month a year ago.
Music Composer For New
Movie Is Native of O’Neill
They’re making a movie now
about one of Hollywood’s favorite
night clubs, where sophisticated
revelry and the cover charge strike
the same high tune.
And just to make it authentic
nearly every actor hails from some
little town where a box supper
social was his first entrance into
grownup society.
Fred MacMurray, leading man of
Cocoanut Grove, was born in Kan
kakee, 111., and reared in Beaver
Dam, Wis.
Red Stanley, playing the part of
a puzzle addict, comes from Cor
sicana, Texas.
Eve Arden, who dances to music
composed by Harry Owens, calls
Mill Valley, Calif., her home.
Owens, himself, had O’Neill,
Nebr., for a birthplace.
Rufe Davis, rubber mouthed
singer, is from Mangum, Okla.
Little Billy Lee, who has a kid
part is a favorite son of Nelson,
Ind.
The above was taken from one
of the daily papers as a special
from Hollywood and handed in to
this office. The only Owens that
we can remember having been a
resident of this city was Prof. Jesse
Owens who was superintendent of
the O’Neill public schools along in
1901, 02 and 03, and we presume
that Harry Owens, the composer,
is a son of his, as he claims O’Neill
as his birthplace, and O’Neillites
hope that his music for the new
movie will be a decided success as
well as the movie.
The government set up the Guffy
Coal commission to regiment bi
tuminous coal mining, curb com
petition and control prices. Gover
nor Earle wants the government
to take over the anthracite mines
(because he thinks the operators
are regimenting mining, curbing
competition and controlling prices.
The rarest jewel of all, these days,
js consistency.
The bloodiest and crudest wars
in htisory have been civil wars,
which cannot be prevented by in
ternational agreement. The pres
ent struggle in Spain is a good ex
ample. ^
Now might be a good time for
Mr. Roosevelt to suggest to each
of us that we stop for a moment
and consider whether we are not
better off today than we were a
year ago.
