Q I - Those who don't vote tomorrow may regret it. -:o: A tax on intelligence wouldn't hit some folks hard. :o: Every man has at least one prob lem he can't solve. :o: A great deal of annoyance can be scattered around by pep. :o: The same big fish are getting away that got away last year. :o: Some crabs live in salt water, but the other kind live In hot water. :o: One way to get back to health is to take more rest and les3 advice. :o: La3t call, ladies and gentlemen. Vote early, vote late and vote often. :o: i No one can predict even the suc cessful candidates In Cass county. :o: These people who are always blow ing about themselves are spoiling a lot -of good wind. :o: Apathy seems to prevail to some extent, not only in Cass county, but throughout the state. Some people are preaicung a ngni vote tomorrow, and fail to give any good reason tnerezore. :o: Our army may be put to 123,000 but a3 long as strangers walk across lawns we will have Cghter3. :o: When it comes to bowing to the .inevitable .a. man should, at least be a good sport and do the thing grace fully. :o: Senatox Underwood lays the short skirts to the high prices of dress materials.

X$3 "It don't take'a man long to bag bis pants at the knees, and to make a finely tailored suit look thoroughly disrepu table that's the man of it," avers Dainty Dorthy. But she goes on to explain that the man who is making use of our cleaning, steaming and pressing services is keep ing his clothes in much more presentable condition than when he got acquainted with us. And it doesn't cost much, either. Goods Called for "and Delivered -m orsj t; opposite: J0UPNAL Of FICE 1 PES YEAS IN ADVANCE Little drops of grape juice, Yeast till It ferments, Makes the Volstead dictum Look like thirty cents. :o: If a man comes up and shakes hands with me real "friendly these days, .don't know what he's running for but he's running. -:o:- An optimist is a man who buys a pocketbook on credit, but the opti mistic honors belong to the man who sells him the pocketbook. -:o: The determination of the govern ment to investigate the dye trust seems to indicate there may be some thing aboutMt that is off color. :o: "Not all the girl3 who have bobbed hair have bobbed brains," the Atch ison Globe says, "but all girls with bobbed brains have bobbed hair." :o: The women seem to be taking more interest in the primary than the men folks, and they will turn out pretty well in the cities and towns. o: o We don't care how short the wo men wear their skirts, but we could lick the fellow who decreed that a man should not eat in his shirt sleeves. ' :o: A prudent girl will not get into a motor car with a man she does not know, and there are many wise girls who will ride in cars with men they do know. :o: People often tell us they read the nmer to keeD -Dosted on current Qt3 go yery we Now all to getber, Who won the war ln china, ; end why? :o:- Everyone entitled to vote shoul-J make It a point to go to the polls tomorrow and vote, and take your neighbor with you. It is really your duty to do so.- :o: - Sometimes we are apt to under estimate the crushing weight of Eu rope's troubles, Here is Albania, for example, tottetlng on the brink of despair because it can't find a king to come and occupy it3 throne. :o: It Is strange how apt we are to take note of unimportant things Here we are giving some attention to the railroad strike when the Dempsey-Will3 so-called prize fight has not yet been definitely settled 0 J Maybo one thing that makes it easier for Mr. Lloyd George is that when the Irish question 213 to be unbearable he can turn to t lie Ger man question and when that gets un bearable he can turn to the Irish question. :o: Js it any wonder there is a demand for legislation against the grain ex changes when farmers who produce the grain are compelled to watch the sort of thing that goes on year after ! year in the grain markets, absolute ly powerless to do anything about it? :o: One correspondent says that if the human race continues dodging motor cars for a few generations longer, children will be born with their eyes on each side of their heads, like chickens. It's a terrible alternative for if we don't continue to dodge, there won't, be any future genera tion. :o: ADVERTISING Of itself, advertising is little. And the differences in it are the differ ences which exist in men.' Just as soon as men are strong and verile and interesting, so Is some ad vertising. And just as some men are ineffectual and weafand boring, so is some other advertising. "Does it pay to advertise?" It pays those men who are keen enough stu dents of the public to make It pay them. It pays thepe men who are truthful, sincere, Interesting and be lievable. V It pays the men whose product de serves the payment, whose brains are keen enough to organize for sue cess and judge enough of the human mind to know how to tell their story with sincerity and interest. So when you judge advertising, judge it by how it is used and by whom not of itself and of itself alone. ' j; Remember, an ugly man looks just as ugly in a mirror. :o: 1 .

Despite low prices for farm pro ducts and unfavorable financial con ditions affecting agriculture during the past two years, the farmers of Nebraska are not by any means a poverty-stricken class if federal cen sus figures on agricultural wealth of this and other states furnish a re liable criterion. A bulletin recently prepared by State Agriculture Secretary Stuhr, based on these statistics, places Ne braska second In per capita wealth of its farm population, with Iowa In first place. An average of $6,826 In value of property owned i3 credited to every man, woman and child liv ing on farms in this .state. The av erage value of Nebraska farms, in cluding live stock and equipment i3 placed at 133,771. Cereals, vegetables and fruits pro duced on the fertile soil of. Nebraska amount in value lo $519,729,000 per year, while livestock and its pro ducts including poultry, butter and eggs, are lumped at $387,869,000 a year. . Leads in Hay Production . In its production of wild hay and alfalfa, Nebraska outranks all other states, Newport, Rock county, is said to be the largest shipping station of wild hay in the world, loading out about 2,600 cars annually. The an nual value of the wild hay crop is about $29,500,000. For forty years, alfalfa has been popular in the state, the first fields being sown in the early eighties. The average annual production of this crop is 2.926,825 tons, valued at $44,411,000. In acreage and production of corn Nebraska ranks third. The total an nual value of the corn crop, based on the 1817-21 averages, is $156,856, 000. To this very important crop, the livestock industry is largely Indebt ed. Due to the abundance of this feed about 300,000 steers, 200,000 sheep and 3,500,000 hogs are raised and fattened annually. Other important crops are wheat, valued at $90,688,700 in which the state ranks fifth in production and sugar beets in which it ranks sec A good traveling bag is something you may need at any time and it is an article that must be of good quality to give good service.
