DURING the past month, reports have come to us that at farmers meetings
charges have been made, sometimes directly and sometimes indirectly, that
this Company hasadopted a policy of refusing to supply repair parts for old machines
in order to compel the purchase of new ones. This statement is absolutely false.
Such a policy has never been considered by this Company nor suggested to it.
Ordinarily we ignore such reports, because we have learned that any large
company, no matter how fair and high principled, is subject at all times to unjust
criticism. The facts are this Company has always recognized the importance of
repair service and has used every effort to make IHC service the best. We believe
we can truthfully say that the repair service furnished wherever this Company's
goods are sold is equal if not superior to that furnished on any manufactured line.
We call attention to the fact that machinery "Fix-up Weeks," instead of being
something new and originated by the farmers in 1921, as some seem to think,
were really an outgrowth of the movement started by manufacturers and dealers
associations in connection with the Council of National Defense as a war con
servation measure. Perhaps no other agency has done so much to promote
National Repair eks" as this Company.
The farmer needs machines which will be efficient and economical. If his old
machines can be repaired so as to render efficient and economical service, he
would be foolish to purchase new ones. Whether the farmer utilizes and repairs
his old machines or buys new ones is a question for him to determine. But in
making his decision, we give to every farmer who owns any IHC machines the
assurance that a lull stock of repair parts will always be provided by this
Company. . (
Today, our repair stocks on the territory available for the farmers are 21 per
cent greater than ever before at this time of the year. An average of a quarter
million pounds of repairs are shipped from IHC factories for every working
day in the year. Thirty million dollars worth of repair parts are now ready, as
insurance for the farmer when he needs this service
In every International Harvester Works manufacturing orders call for repair
parts first and even when furnishing them has meant cutting down production
of new machines for which we had orders, repairs have always had preference.
At every one of our 91 branch houses trained men are on duty to see that all
orders are filled and shipped promptly. Thousands of dealers scattered every
where with an assortment of repairs in stock are always ready and willing to
render every assistance.
This service which this Company has rendered through the years to those who
have purchased its machines has been a matter of great pride to the Company,
and is the foundation cf the cordial good-will existing between it and its customers.
We feel it is due the Company and those who have purchased its machines
that we give the widest publicity to the fact that this service of repairs will be
maintained and improved, and that any charges to the contrary are untrue.

The old friends and neighbors of

terday afternoon at the First Pres
byterian church to render their tri
bute of respect to the friend who had
passed from them for this earthly
life and closed a Ions and useful lite
. at his home here last Monday inorn-
in?.
I The services were conducted by
Rev. H. G. McClusky, pastor of the
church, assisted by Kev. A. G. Hollo
well, pastor of the Christian church,
and in the short sermon delivered by
Rev. McClusky, a tribute was paid
to the life of the departed friend and
neighbor and to the sorrowing fam
ily the pastor held out the comfort
ing thought of the future where the
pain of parting comes not and where
the ties long broken are rejoined.
A quartet composed of Mr. and
Mrs. George L. Farley, Mrs. J. W.

J the old and familiar songs of faith.
j "Jesus, Lover of My Soul," and "Rock
of Ages," while Mrs. E. H. Wescott
I gave as a solo one of the favorite
; songs of the departed, "Sometime a

At the conclusion of the services

the departed comrade who had so

ABOUT A fellow.
WHO SLIPPED.

AND TRIPPED up,
A FAT lady.
WHO SAT on him.
AND RODE down hilL

MY REGULAR smoke.
TRIED TO sell me.
SOME OTHER kind.
OF CIGARETTE.
I REMEMBERED that yarn.
AND TOLD the clerk.
JUST WHERE to get off.
OTHER KINDS will bum,
AND GIVE off smoke.
I'LL ADMIT that mucn-
BUT THATS as far.

AS I'LL go.
THERE'S ONLY one kind.
OF CIGARETTE.
THAT CAN, and will, and doea.

A Tribute
Once more inexorable Time has
knocked at the gates of Eternity
the gates have swung back, and a hu
man soul, a fellow citizen, a good
neighbor and friend, has stepped out
into the infinite;- leaving us sore
hearted and lonely. Accustomed, for
many years, to the almost daily
cheerful greeting of our friend as
we passed upon the highway; and
having often watched the gleam from
the windows of his loved home, and
while the memory of the interchange
of many neighborly tokens seems so
fresh, it is well to pause in reflective
thought upon the relationships of life.
We know now, as we look back,
that William McCauley was deserv
ing of the respect and good will of
his friends and fellow citizens. He
was not obstrusive in his opinion,
but firm In his convictions. He made
no great display of his loyaltj-, but
his fidelity to his country and friends
was unflinching. lie sought no high
honors from his fellow citizens, but
was content to receive as his crown
the diadem of fidelity and trust. N'o
complaint ever came from those for
whom he toiled. . His daily tasks
were performed with a view of ren
dering just service for his wige. and
securing means for the comfort and
enjoyment of those he best loved
his home, his wife and children. Af
ter all, what more can be said to the
honor of mortal.
All these qualities unerringly
point o a hjgher development an
unending progress. Who shall say
that William McCauley has not step
ped out into Eternity for a higher
life.
As we reflect upon the days and
years of this fellow citizen, let us,
at least, try to emulate in our own
lives, whatever of worth and good
we discovered in his.

The members of Plattsmouth lodge
Xo. 739, IJ. P. O. K., held a very
interesting meeting last evening at
their lodse rooms and which was at
tended by a very large representation
of the membership to witness the in
duction of five candidates into the
mysteries of the order. The beau
tiful ritualistic ceremonies of the
lodge were conducted by the officers
and upon the newly made Elks made
a lasting impression as they learned
the lessons that must be taught to
those who would become members of
the antlered herd and join the great
fraternity of friendship and Amer
icanism. following the initiation luncheon
was served and the efforts of the
committee in charge in providing for
the wants, of their fraternal brothers
was thoroughly appreciated by all
the members who were present.
The local Elks lodge has grown by ;
leaps and bounds in the past year
and already a large class is in pros
pect for the near future that will
insure it being, probably the largest
fraternal organization in the city in
point of membership.
The Elks are also planning a min
strel show in the near future which
will be given with the usua lElk
thoroughness and will certainly be a
"knockout" in the entertainment line.
Those who witnessed the' minstrel
of a few years ago can well realize
the excellent material that the order
affords and with the large number
of new members they have a wonder
ful field to work from in selecting
their talent.

Dr. G. H. Schleh of Omaha, Sover
eign Chaplain, Addresses Members
of Order at Perkins House.
Last evening a number of the
members of the Woodmen of the
World met at the parlors of the Per
kins House, where they were ad
dressed by Dr. G. II. Schleh of Oma
ha, one of the prominent workers in
the order, and sovereign chaplain,
who discussed informally with the
members the question of rates in the
order which have in the past year
incrceased somewhat and especially
to the older membership of the or
der Dr. Schleh urged the members
to take the matter up and see that
delegates were elected to the head
camp of Nebraska which meets at
Columbus on April 18-19, who w-ould
oppose the high rates and see that
the Nebraska delegates to the sover
eign camp were instructed to sup
port the proposition to restore the
rates to their old standard. Within
the past year this has grown to be
a very important question with the
older members and they are very ear
nest in their desire to see the rates
reduced to a figure where it will be
possible to maintain them without
any injustice to the order.
