You know that this reward of a 1915 Maxwell Touring Car is not going to be yours with no effort on your part.
AT THE FINISH? WILL YOU BE IN? Will you have proved your worth? Opportunity lends a hand to all .
who say, “I can.” Remember that the race is never ended until the goal is reached. The present standing of the
candidates is not an indication of what the finish will be. Continuity and plenty of nerve have time and again
wrested victory from apparent defeat. SAY! WHO IS GOING TO WIN THAT MAXWELL, ARE YOU? Well if you
want to win it the thing to do is to put in every minnte from now on and NEVER GIVE UP. Do you remember that
great naval commander, Perry? Hope was almost lost, but his motto was: “DON’T GIVE UP THE SHIP.” The re
sult was he won. The same principal holds true here.
The Cheer of the One Who Wins
The one who wins is entitled to cheer. He has accomplished something worth his while—and yet it is really easy. CONCENTRATE! Cut out the side lines—focus on one point until you burn a
hole in it. Fag ends furnish no force until focused. Put force into your task. GET OUT OF THE RUT. Life in a rut is a living death. Wishing never lifted man or woman one inch out of a rut.
“Where there’s a will there’s a way.” Are you going to let your dhance of success slip past you?

THE SUCCESS OF YOUR
NEIGHBOR
In building an increasing bank ac
count from a small start is some
thing to emulate, not to envy.
His attainment, and the attain
ment of many others, is positive
proof that it is possible to build a
larger success from a small start
if one tries. Isn’t that all the
assurance one needs—to know
that it is possible to accomplish a
certain purpose if one tries? The
systematic use of Our Bank Ac
count Plan is helping others to
get ahead—why not YOU?

Loup City Counted
„ Really Progressive
One of the reasons why Loup
City has won the name of a well
run business-like and progressive
city is the result of the work of
the individual citizens as well as
the collective bodies, both politi
cal and civic.
We know we aie all keen to
speak a good word for Loup City
whenever we are traveling. This
is also a fact with a great many
citizens of every town in this
state, bub the local business men
of Loup City will go even further
by securing whatever attraction
may be had, of either educational
or entertaining value, or some-'
thing they may find would benefit
our citizens at home.
As an instance John Blaska, the
local representative of the Max
well Motor Sales Corporation, has
arranged to rent the Opera House
for Nov. 19 and will have a free
lecture illustrated with 4000 feet
of motion pictures showing the
entire process of building an auto
mobile from start to finish. The
lecturer who will visit us Nov. 19
is a man selected by the Maxwell
Motor Sales Corporation, being
capable of portraying in a very
interesting way just what'is nec
essary to accomplish this.
There are some special added
features such as a travelogue,
views taken along the Pacific
Coast, also events that are of na
tional interest to those owning
motor cars^ We feel sure that
from the report we have already
received, it will be a success.
We cannot urge too strongly on
the citizens of Loup City to at
tend,especially those who have
neither the time or inclination to
travel.
Such a lecture as this brings us
in close touch with what our
brothers in the larger cities are
able to accomplish and what
great institutions, modern busi
nesses of today" really are, as well
as showing the important parts
that the science of chemistry and
engineering play in business.

Thinks Lots of
His Maxwell
Teeds Grove, Iowa, Oct. 17,
1914, Mr. J. \V. Burleigh, Loup
City, Nebr., Dear Sir:—I see by
your paper where you are a going
to give some one a 1915 Maxwell
touring car with the electric
equipment, will say who ever the
lucky one will lie, will certainly
be well paid for their effort.
I have one of those cars myself ,
and very seldom have to go down
on slow speed as it takes the most
of them on hfijh and we have some
very steep lulls, and for smooth
riding it has t^iem all backed off
the map that are in this class. We
have a good number of those cars
in this vicinity and all the owners
are satisfied, which says a good
deal.
They are not hard to control in
sand as some of them are and in
mud it goes right along. As I was
taking a trip the other morning I
ran into mud and as it was quite
slippery I stopped and put on my
chains and kept on going as nice
as any car would go under the
same conditions.
I am going*to help some one af
ter the next paper arrives to see.
who really is going to make the
race, as I can not get along with
out the Northwestern to keep me
posted on Loup City news.
Wishing you success, I remain
Truly yours,
J. H. Petersen.
Make your anticipation a reali
zation, own a Maxwell Touring
Car.
Shavings
Exit flies—enter bugs, drat ’em.
Road courtesy is getting better
because it pays big.
Lafe Longreach says these cool
evenings promote sp o o n i n g.
What kind dbn’t?
The most noticeable feature
about some’people’s talk is that
their chin moves. Others get
the name of conversationalist
by keeping the mouth shut.
We have had many ups and
downs in this world. One time
we stumbled while going up the
hill of success and started to slip
backward when the voice of a
man, going up, shouted, “Put on
all the brakes you have, take my
hand and come over near me. I
tried that step once and fell too,
seems it’s greased with false
pride.” Two things learned. Lay
off the false front and learn to
use at least one hand part of the
time for the slippling one.
The acts following good inten
tions are the counters.
“Shavings” may appear from
time to time.
We might have called this little
department “Plane Talk” but
“Shavings” is shorter.
Two Views of
The First Kiss
“The greatest surprise in the
world to a girl who is kissed for
the first time is that there is no
taste to it.”—Exchange.
No taste to it! Well, by the
hen-feathers on Cupid’s dart, but
the editor of that paper must be
color blind and deaf and dumb in
his palate. They tell us, those
who have tried it, that it tastes
like that double-distilled essence
of honey spread thick on a large
fat slice of pumpkin pie; that its
taste resembles a sip of nectar,
brewed by the gods and served in
a dew-covered honey-suckle blos
som.
‘Way back in the dim hazy
past, long before we had misplac
ed all our teeth and lost all our
hair, and when we had a cinch on
the beauty prize, the prettiest girl
in the world told us with her own
rosebud lips that our first kiss felt
like a flock of Paradise birds flut
tering out of each ear and ended
with a sensation like a covey of
winged angels pouring molasses
down her spine.
No taste to the first kiss! Great
guns! It would make a wooden
Indian’s hair curl up into a flut
tery marcel wave and his toe-nails
quiver with esctatic bliss.
No taste to the first kiss! Why
it tastes like the ambrosia of
cherry blossoms just at the time
when the whirr of the humming
birds’ wings come to one as a
siren-song.
No taste to the first kiss!
The man who invented that
phrase must be an ice-box.—Ex.
Who will be the winner of that
beautiful 1915 Maxwell Touring
car ? Will it be you or one of
your more ambitious friends?
Are Newspapers
Benefit to a Town?
Ex-Governor Francis once said
the following of newspapers.
“Each year the local paper gives
from $500 to $1,000 in free lines
to the community in which it is
located. No other agency can or
will do this. The editor, in pro
portion of his means, does more
for his town than any other ten
men, and in fairness he ought to
be supported—not because you
like him or admire ^his writings,
but because the local paper is the
best investment a community can
make. It may not be brilliantly
edited or crowded with thought,
but financially it is of more bene
fit to the community than the
preacher or teacher. Understand
me, I do not mean mentally, and
yet on motel questions you will
find most of the papers on the
right side. Today the editor of
the local papers do the most for
the least money of any people on
earth.”—Ex.
