cars each night for a plunge in the
cording waters. Ladies and gents
dressing roms have been fitted up.
and there are almost as many femi
nine swimmers as there are mascu

resort is remarkable. Attracted by
tbe pleasures of tbe aquatic sport,
young and old, rich and poor, busi
ness and professional men and th-?
ordinary laboring man rub elbows in
the turgid waters and swim and
dive together. The bathing resort is
one of Plattsmouth's best finds in a

INVEST
Fr Clothes Dividends
It would be well to look upon clothes-buying as an investment now, rather than
as a necessity-purchase. You'J! draw liberal dividends if ycu do.
The cautious, far-seeing man is buying his
clothes now investing on the rising market. He is buying clothing of the staple
variety he is getting materials more than worth the money. He is buying
the $35 figure, and Iris dividend will be about $15 on his "buy."
