Did You Get the'Bottom
Price, After All?
The man who buys a "long discount" tire usually finds himself
troubled by the above question.
Did he pay less for the tire than his neighbor might have paid, or
actually did he pay more ?
Did he get the bottom price, when all is said and done, or could he
perhaps have driven a sharper bargain?
Was the net price really more than he might have had to pay for a
tire of established reputation and value?
In the belief that the average motorist prefers a frank and open
transaction, we built the new Goodyear Cross-Rib Tread Cord and
discounted the "discount" in advance.
Instead of listing it at a high price, to enable the dealer to attract
you with a so-called "long discount," we list it as low as we
profitably can.
We build it of high-grade long-staple cotton, using the patented
Goodyear method of group-ply construction, and sell it at a lower
price than you are asked to pay for many "long discount" tires of
unknown worth.
Compare these prices with NET prices you are asked to pay for "long discount" tires

While the marriage license busi

busy docketing the cases of those
who would find happiness not in
wedded bliss but in freedom from
lie tie3 of matrimony.

plication for a decree of divorce from
C. D. Hadley. The petitioner states
that they were married March 8,
1919, at Nebraska City, and that the
defendant has been guilty of deser

tiff. Another of the cases filed is that

The driving of piling for the stack
that is being erected at the Burling
ton shops as the first work on the
erection of the new power plant of
the railroad company was started
yesterday.
The piling was driven to bed rock
to make as solid a foundation as pos
sible for the 165 foot stack that is
going to be erected at once as the
first step in the building of the plant.
The contract for the new power
plant has been let to the Jones En
gineering &. Construction Co. of Om
aha, and when completed the plant
will cost the Burlington the sum of
$50,000. The building will be erect
ed just north of the present boiler
house and will bo a building strict
ly modern and fireproof in every
way. It will bo of steel construction
with stone trim and be one of the
best power plants on the system on
their western lines.
The plant will be equipped with
automatic stokers and conveyors that
will make the work of running the
heating and power system much more
convenient and safer for the com
pany and its employes.
In the erection of the new build
ing a portion of the present build
ing material will probably be used
as the present boiler house will be
torn away when the new structure
is placed in service.
It is planned to have the stack
completed at once as this is bring
erected under a sub contract and as
much of the building as possible will
be completed this fall, altho it is
possible that the whole structure
may not be placed in service until
the first part of next year. The com
pletion of the new plant will depend
largely on the amount that the Bur
lington will he allowed to expend i pect to hear
on the improvements for 1922, but 1 near future
will be completed a3 fast as the ap
propriations become available.
This will make a pleasing addi
tion to the B'irliiigton shops here
and one that will add to the modern
equipment of tho shop and in line
with the other improvements that
have been-made In the last few years.

and which did not have any license
number on it.
The car was taken in charge by
the police and this morning the own
ers, who had spent the night at the
Hotel Perkins, were rather surprised
to find that the car was missing, i
when they arose and decided to con
tinue their journey. The owner of
the car is II. A. Steel of Topeka,
Kansas, who with his friend and
companion. W. II. Curry, are trav
eling through to the Dakota harvest
fields.
At the office of the county attorney
where they hastened to discover the
whereabouts of the car, the two men
stated that Mr. Steel had purchased
a license in Topeka before leaving
there and hail requested tfiat the li
cense plate be forwarded to them at
Omaha, on their way northward and
where they expected to stop ior a
short time. They stated that this was
the third time they had been halted
on their journey northward as they
were stopped twice in the city of To
peka before getting out. Mr. Steel
had just bought the car prior to leav
ing Kansas and gave this as the rea
son for not having his number o"n

The derision to strike followed all

Important Switching Line
The Elgin, Joliet &; Eastern Is
probably the most important switch
ing line in the entire country, and a
continued suspension of operation on
the system might seriously check
heavy freight movements through the
Chicago district.
Practically all thru freight from
both east and west, and north and
south, routed via Chicago, is trans
ferred from the incoming to the out
going line by the E. J

In the last years of her residence
here Mrs. Cooper was quite active in
the work of the public library and
many of the Plattsmouth people will
recall the pleasant and gracious la

and took such a deep interest in the
conduct of the library and the com
fort of its patrons.
Mrs. Cooper removed from this
city in 1907 and has been making
her home with relatives since that
time, the greater part of the time
with her daughter.
