Twelve years is not a very long time, but
twelve years hzs made a big change in the
whole economic system of this country.
We are thinking back just now to 1914.
At that time we were featuring and sell
ing the famous "STYLEPLUS $17" Suits.
This was an all wool suit a standardized
value and we scld hundreds cf theo. Since
that time a suit of this same value has men
to as high as $50 in price. On March 1st
we rtarted something. On that date $20
"Bill" began working for us. $20 "Bill"
is the lowest priced Quality suit in America
and possesses the same vrlue as the $17
Styieplus Suit of 1914. That's getting
pretty close to pre-war basis that's getting
down to bedrock.

cast. Early in the evening, dnrts
of color were shot through the t.haft
toward the west. Later the color
disappeared, but the white streamer
remained for hours.
The aurora borealis, which was
generally credited for the origin of
the streamer, is caused by electrical
discharges which occur at heights
of 50 to 100 miles above the earth.
The center of discharges appear to
by near the magnetic pol3. During
' This afternoon in the county court
Arthur L. Gorder was cleared under
habeas corpus proceedings of the
ch.-rges that had been preferred
against him hero at th request of
the state of Oklahoma. This case was
cne in which Mr. Gordon had a com
plaint filed against him here at the
request of the authorities of Creek
county, Oklahoma, asking his return
there to face charges arising from
difficulties in which he was formerly
engaged in. Mr. Gordon has claimed
that he had made an understanding
with his former associate there re
garding their unfulfilled contracts
with one of the oil companies there
and as th" '-i ntracts were in the name
of Mr. Gorcion when the contracts
were not fulfilled the matter was
brought into court and the result
was the comp-alnt filed here.
The request of the Oklahoma au
thorities for the extradation of Mr.
Gordon was denied yesterday by Gov
ernor McMullcn r.tid the hearing had
here with the result that Mr. Gordon
was cleared and the matter closed up.
Mr. Gordon has since removing from
Oklahoma been a resident at Mur-dock.

I will be pushed and the danger to

! eliminated.
; From La Platte to Fort Crook, the
road will run as it is no v. laid out
t-titil reaching the point where the
rr.id now crosses the railroad track3.
At this nnint a new hririire will be
Yi bv.il t over the Parp"o to continue the
road on north, running along the
west side of the Missouri Pacific
right-of-way, until it reaches the!
Papillion road just west of the Wal

of travel will cross on the overhead
crossing to join up with the present
road at the Walnut Grove corner.
The Fort Crook corner will be widen

travel and will be a. real boon to the
traveling public.
i Those who travel on the highway
to any extent will hail the proposed
changes and the prospective free

A display of this kind is rare in
this section. However, about a year
ago a similar phenomenon was vis

and displayed for a shorter period.
