Plainview, Neb.. Oct. 4—With a pro

to close here Thursday evening witji
an address on “World Friendship," by
Dr. Nehemiah Boynton, exmoderator

ture of the conference was the stir
ring addresses delivered by Prof.

sity. Pastors and delegates from all
parts of the state will return to^ their
fields inspired by the two addresses
he gave, "Jesus’ Definition of the
Basis of Happiness." and “The Foun
dation of a Working Religion."
Dr. Frank G. Smith, pastor of the
Central Congregational church, Oma
ha, said that the conference was one
of the best he had ever attended.
After 18 years of service as state
superintendent of the conference Rev.
•S. J. Hanford resigned, and Rev. W.
A Tyler was elected to take his place.
The ministers and delegates passed
a resolution of appreciation of the
long and faithful service of Rev. Mr.
Hanford.
Rev. B J. Frickey of Albion was
elected moderator of the association.
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.

Our 1923 Progress Sale
Begins Monday,
October 8th
Someone lias written: “Success can’t be
inherited—if you’ve been handed power or
wealth and can’t reproduce it of your own
accord, you're worse off than the man who
had to build both for himself. 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. J. L. BRANDEIS & SONS.
