OMAHA IN 1878
Forty-four years ago
when Creighton Uni
versity was founded it
was a great step for
ward in Omaha’s devel
opment for a greater
service to the people of
this territory. It was
heralded as one of the
great achievements, as
a great asset and was
a real "show place” for
Omaha.

Owahafe trade territory

ional territory__
To grow is the desire of every city, industry and
citizen. But of more importance is to “keep
step” with this growth, in order to be able to
serve “all the people” as they come. To induce
people to trade in Omaha without the necessary
capacity to supply their wants is worse than to
have never asked them to come.
And so it is with education.
For Creighton to build a reputation for Omaha
as an educational center would be folly
without being prepared to handle those who
come. Today Creighton University must build
many new buildings; must branch out in the
most complete educational direction, if Creigh
ton is to continue (in further growth) to be the
asset to Omaha that it has been all these forty
four years.
At Creighton University education is furnished
free in the High School and Ails Departments.
I'he cost for education in its other departments
is very nominal. This is brought about by the
low operating costs and the fact that many of
its instructors receive no salary.
Creighton University is open to all young men,
regardless of “creed,” in the Missouri Valley.
The Medical, Pharmacutical, Law, Dental and
Commercial departments are acclaimed, by men
who know, to be the equal of any similar depart
ments in any of the Class A Schools of the
country.
Will you help make it possible for Creighton
to “Keep Step” with growing Omaha? Educa
tion is as vital to our trade territory as is the
development of commerce itself. Education
makes better men; it is the only solution we
have in keeping the “spirit of American ideals”
and American progress uppermost in the minds
of each new generation.

Old methods did not effectively combat it So most
teeth were coated more or less And few escaped the
troubles caused by film
Pilm holds food substance which ferments and
forma acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth
to causa decay. Germs breed by millions in it. They,
srith tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea.

in it for daily application.
The name of that tooth paste it Pepsodent. Now
dentists the world over are urging its adoption. To
careful people of some 50 nations it has brought
safer, whiter teeth.
Mistakes corrected
Research also proved that former method* reduced
Nature's tooth-protecting forces in the mouth.
Pepsodent corrects that mis.ake. It multiplies the
alkalinity of the saliva. That is there to neutralise
mouth acids, the cause of tooth decay. It multiplies
the starch digestant in the saliva. That is there te
digest starch deposits which may otherwise ferment
and form acid*.
Watch it for a week
A test of Pepsodent will prove • revelation. Note
how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence
of the viscous film. See how teeth whiten as the film

film, one to remove it. and
without any harmful scouring.
