from Wednesday's Dally.
The lecture number of the lyceum
course given last evening at the aud
itorium of the high school while not
as largely attended as the previous
numbers have been owing to other
attractions and the disagreeable
weather conditions prevailing was;
one of the best features of this kind
that has been heard in the city for
some time.
Mr. Grathwell was a clear and
fluent speaker and his topic, "Get
ting Away From Your Hoodoo." was
a very able address, throughout. The
speaker took up many of the prob
lems of everyday life that seem to
check the advancement of man and
pointed out the manner of surmount
ing these obstacles that are so often
the fault of the individual as much
as the surroundings in which he may
be situated. Greater educational fa
cilities were urged by Mr. Grathwell
a one of the mean of advancing and
the young people were urged to take
the fullest advantage of their oppor
tunities. The speaker told of his
struggles under very adverse circum
stances to secure an education and
attain the place he now occupies and
his triumphs over the idea that your
position ran hold you down if -;
are determined to attain higher ends.
Being a booster and an optimist rath
er than a kicker and knocker brought
out many interesting illustrations in
the ddres. of Mr. Grathwell and
his statements were received with
much pleasure by his auditors.
No War Tax to Pay!
All kinds of tires are now advancing, and with the
manufacturers advancing their prices and the jobbers the
same, they are coming to the dealers at a higher rate.
Many have advanced the price from 15 to &(yb. They
will go higher soon. . All dealers must follow the trend in
rices.
Just at this time we have a good sized stock which
we bought while the prices were lower, and for a limited
time will offer them at the prevailing prices, and pay the
war tax. We, like the others, will have to have to have
higher prices in the near future.
Many people are needing new tires, and will want
more with the coming of Spring. Better lay in your needs
immediately, for there is no guarantee on the present
prices, as some dealers have already advanced. We are
carrying the following in stock in most of the sizes:
FIRESTONE, GOODRICH, FISK, GOOD
YEAR AND CORNHUSKER!
These tires are all guaranteed for 6,000 miles use, and as
all rubber goods are advancing, it would be the act of pru
dence to get what you need before the advance, which is
sure to come, and that within a very short time.
