Fremont Fails in Effort to Get Lower Fire Rates Fremont, Neb.. Oct. 4.—Attempts to secure a reduction in rates for fire insurance In Fremont have proved futile thus far, according to an an nouncement made by Fire Chief Harry Morse. The state fire inspec tor, In ruling on a petition for a re duction, declares Fremont must still remain In class 6 of the stale require ments. The chief reason for the denial of a reduction was the present water system and the lack of sufficient pressure. Several hydrants must be replaced and additional paid firemen he kept on the job at all limes, the inspector ruled. Recent improvements in the water system, Including the addition of new loops and an extension, induced the fire chief to seek a reduction in the rates.

He can repeat his fortune because he has the tools of expe rience with which to re-create.’’ In the remarkable progress of The Bran deis Store the “tools of experience” have * played an important part. Built upon a sub stanti.nl foundation, the cornerstone of which is comprised of integrity .and fair dealing, this institution has grown with the passing years. Today it is recognized as one of the mercantile marvels of the country. This may appear like a boast, but inquiry i n the commercial circles of the world will demonstrate its justification. W ilh agents in every section of our own country and offices in every market of the world, its reputation is world wide and its affairs touch every commercial center. So broad and exten sive is its sphere of activity that The Brandeis Store figured conspicu ously in the news reports of the earthquake in Japan. One cablegram announced the complete destruction of The Brandeis Store office in Yoko hama. This was followed*bv another in a.few days to the effect that the ’office had been opened in another town in Japan and was already in operation. The facts concerning the growth of this institution are admittedly remarkable, and we feel that we may, with propriety, refer to them for, in a larger sense, they constitute a tribute to the growth and development of Omaha and the surrounding territ ory whose resources and progress have ma.le possible the remarkable growth and progress of this institution. For these reasons, therefore, we have chosen for our great selling event which will begin Monday, October 8, the significant name: Our 1923 Progress Sale Inspired by the generous suppor t given us by the buying public of Omaha and vicinity, we are determ ined to make this sale one of the high marks in our history of value giving.
