Ten Winners
in Auto Race
on Firestones
For Ninth Time, Gum-Dipped Tires
Lead in Indianapolis Speed
way, Classic May 30th.
Firestone Full-Size Gum-Dipped
Balloon tires again made a remark
able showing in the Indianapolis
Speedway Classic on Decoration day,
when all ten winners participating
"in the money" rode on these depend
able tires.
This is the second time balloon
tires were used in the great Speed
way event, the first being last year
when Peter DePaolo on Firestone
Full-Size Gum-Dippel Balloons made
a new world's record at an average
speed of 101.13 miles per hour.
Smaller motors of 91 cubic inch
displacement, compared to 122 cubic
inches in 1925, combined with rainy
weather and a slippery track, slowed
up the time of the 192G winner,
Frank Lockhart, who won this year's
race at 95.8S8 miles per hour.
This year's gruelling battle of tires
was caled at the end of 402 miles

Poultry Wanted!

Plattsmouth, Nebraska
A car load of live poultry wanted
to be delivered at poultry car near
the Burlington freight house, Platts
mouth, WEDNESDAY, June 30, one

following

Farmers, Notice
The fact that we ship in carload
lots direct to the New York market
enables us to pay the very top price
for your poultry.
We have been coming to Platts
mouth a long time, and you know
cur reputation for fair dealing.

because of the downpour of rain.
Lockhart, who captured the grand
prize, drove the full distance without
a single tire change and was all set
to go the entire 500 miles on the same
set of tires.
It is a noteworthy fact, too, that
the 1926 Indianapolis race was the
ninth on the Iloosier Speedway in
which Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires
carried the winners to victory.
The terrific battle of tires brings
out the effectiveness" of Gum-Dip
ping, the exclusive process employ
ed by the Firestone company which
builds extra strength and endurance
into the cord fabric by impregnating
and saturating every fiber of every
cord with rubber.
This special process minimizes fric
tion and heat, keeping the tires com
paratively cool under a continuous
racing strain.
The performance of Firestone tires
at Indianapolis this year certainly
was remarkable when the terrific
speed at which the cars traveled over
the 15-year-old rough brick track is
taken into consideration.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
VISIT NEHAWKA
From Saturday's Dally
County Commissioners, Harris
Spangler, and Gorder were in Ne-
hawka Tuesday afternoon looking
over the lay of the ground at the
west part of town near the bridge.
According to plans, it is proposed
to place a new bridge across the
creek in the west part of town and
open up the street which is now
closed.. This street runs between the
Hans Stoll and Mrs. Flamme homes.
The road which now runs west past
the lumber yard and blacksmith shop
will intersect with the new bridge
and two roads may. be used in en
tering the town.
The place where the new bridge
is to be located is much more satis
factory as the creek runs straight
at that place, which insures better
safety for the structure in case of
high water.'
The cost of this improvement will
be taken care of by both the county
an the town. The county puts in
the bridge and the town pays for
the necessary grading.
If the proposition is decided favor
ably by the board, the commission
ers have a sixty-foot bridge they will
put in. It is ten feet longer than
the present one and a foot or two
wider.
The outlook for the improvement
is very bright and the 'work will
probably be started before long. Ne-
hawka Enterprise.
COURTESY IS NOT ENOUGH
"I believe that ours is a courteous
organization and that no one who
has had dealings with us can com
plain that he is not treated politely
Courtesy is necessary, but courteous
treatment alone cannot take the
place of actual service. Do we give
real and constructive thought to each
of our business contracts with out
subscribers?
"Each transaction, small or large,
will be properly and satisfactorily
cared for only .when we have brought
ourselves to deal with each as though
it were the only one we had to han
dle that day.- If every one of us in
the organization men and women
alike will grasp this point of view,
misunderstandings and mistakes will
practically disappear, and we will be
in that comfortable position of hav
ing our customers really liking the
company." A. E. Berry, President,
