    HAT did Rockefeller mean by "PUT MONEY \
TO WORK” (which was what he learned
he must do to “get ahead”) ?
Just this—he discovered that by INVEST
ING $50 it would earn as much money each
year as he himself could get for a week’s work.
That’s the way to put money to work—INVEST it.
A few years ago it was not an easy matter to put money to
work. But today there is nothing easier under the sun partic
ularly if you live in or near Omaha which is served by
Nebraska Power Company.
This Company mails money every three months to hun
dreds of its customers and other local people.
The money we pay these folks is earned for them by their
savings which they have PUT TO WORK by INVESTING
in shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock. The dictionary
•ays “investing” means "to place money so that it will be safe
and yield more money”.
And that’s just wha't these men and women have done.
They have “placed money” in Nebraska Power Company
There it is “safe and yields more money” every three months.
They own shares of stock — PREFERRED stock, which
yields them over 7 % on each dollar they invested.
You would be entitled to receive $70.00 a year from
'Nebraska Power Company if you owned only 10 shares of Pre
ferred Stock. $70.00 a year is almost $6.00 a month and you
would have increased your earnings by just that much and
—consider this carefully—it would be money you would not
have to do a tap of work for. Your savings, the money you
invested, would have done the work and turned the wages earned
over to you.
Now these’* no reason in the world why YOU can not put
money to work for YOUR OWN profit and gain—to enrich
yourself and to MAKE MONEY just as Rockefeller did—
just as hundreds of our customers and other local people are
doing today.
i
'j&ne do?* while
working in the fields,
it dawned upon me
that if hods ever toget
ahead Imust PUT

Nebraska Power Company makes it EASY for you to put monrv fo a-ork and
sends you the wages earned every 3 months.
To put your money to work you need no special training—no education—no
special gilt or talent.
To put your money to work—to invest it—you have only to stop in any of our
offices and buy some shares of our Preferred Stock and you can do this without
any more fuss or red tape than if you were getting an electric iron or a washing
machine.
ITS SAFE. One of the best things about our stock is that ITS SAFE! NEVER
forget that. We don’t ask you just to take our word for it.
The stock has PROVED to be safe. One reason is this:
We have NEVER FAILED to pay our Preferred Stock Divi
dends. They have been paid-through hard times as ueU
as good times—every 3 months without a break, ever since the
first shares of stock were issued over six years ago.
On every dollar you invest our stock pays over 7% which Is
p»id to you in four equal payments each year. These payments
are called ‘‘dividends’*. The dates for paying “dividends” ars
March 1, June 1, September 1, and December I.
It PAYS to put money to work.
You could have made $6.00 more a month last year if yon
had put only $985.00 to work by investing,it in stock.
Why lose this extra money you might just as well have?
Some folks who read this will say to themselves, “Thera
MAY be something in that. I believe I will take someof my
dollars and see how many MORE dollars they will earn for
me when safely invested in Nebraska Power Company Pre
ferred Stock”.
Why don’t YOU say that and DO it—NOW?
Shares of stock are for sale at our offices or through any
of our employes.
