ADMISSION
Makes Formal Request for Entry
Into Government Circle of
Health Registration.
Dr. L. II. Dillon, chief of the state
lepartment of health and Dr. P. H.
Bartholomew, also of the state de
partment, have returned from Wash-
ngton, D. C... where they attended
i conference of state and national
lealth authorities. Every state was
epresented along with certain Ca
nadian provinces, Hawaii, Philippine
Islands and Panama.
Nebraska made formal request for
ldmission to the registration area.
oth in the matter of birth and
Jeath certificates. The government
will send men over the state to
gather statistics and to check up on
the state department. After the
check is made, decision will be reach
ed as to admission. One of the ad
vantages of admission is the fact
that the state will save $50 or $60
a month in postage via the franking
privilege. If the investigation by
the government shows that 90 per
cent of statistics from over the state
are of record at the state office, ad
mission will follow. About 75 per
cent of the states already are admit
ted on deaths and 25 per cent on
births. Nebraska wants in on both.
Rural sanitation or health on the
farm was a subject to receive care
ful attention at the conference. An
effort is being made to procure gov
ernment financial aid to handle the
situation in the same manner as the
road problem is being met, the gov
ernment to appropriate a lump sum
and the county to match the sum
available from government and state.
This plan contemplates a full-time
health officer in every county of the
state. There are no full-time coun-
jty officers at present. This program
will not be framed at present. Con-

United States Judge T. C. Munger
Monday sustained the plea in bar
made by the attorneys of the defend
ants that they could not be placed
in jeopardy twice.
The indictment charged the de
fendants with the unlawful transpor
tation of intoxicating liquor from a
wet to a dry state to be used for
beverage purposes. An indictment
handed down previously by the fed
eral grand Jury charged Munson et
al. with the unlawful transportation
of intoxicating liquor for purposes of
sale.
The first indictment fell by the
wayside when Judge Mungor held
that the government had not proved
a sale and the jury was instructed to
submit a verdict for the defendants.
It was the contention of attorneys
for the four men that they could not
be tried twice for practically the
same offense.

During all the years the Ford Model T One Ton Truck has been on the mar
ket, we have never had one complaint of rear axle trouble. We have had no
complaints of motor trouble. As the motor and the rear axle are the vital funda
mentals in a motor truck, we have the right to conclude that the Ford One Ton
Truck has not only met the demands of business, but has done so in a satisfactory
and economic way. There is no other evidence so convincing as that which
comes from long practical experience. Ford One Ton Trucks are serving along
all industrial and commercial lines. You will find them everywhere. If these
statements were not facts, the demand for the Ford One Ton Truck would not
be as large as it is, because people are not buying trucks which do not give
service. Coupled with the dependability of the Ford One Ton Truck in all classes
of usae, comes the economy in operation and maintenance. On the farm, in
factory delivery, for the merchant, manufacturer, and contractor, in these days
of modern business methods, this worm-driven One Ton Ford Truck has become
an actual necessity, viae in ana iaut ic over.
