‘‘Bowl for health’’
Young lady, does an old TABOO
prevent your knowing this help?
In less enlightened days, women
didn’t discuss these things. Now, it’s
different. If a woman suffers from
periodic cramp-like pain and other
purely functional distresses, she tries
to learn how to help htrself.
Thousands of women praise the
2-way help of CARDUI. Taken as a
tonic, it usually peps up the appetite,
r— 1 ■ ... ■" ■■ 1
stimulates the flow of gastric juices,
thus aiding digestion and thereby
helping build up energy and resist
ance. Started three days before the
time, and taken as directed, it should
help relieve much purely ‘functional,
periodic pain.
Try CARDUI. A 62 year record
says it may help!
Omaha, September 15, 16, 17, it was
announced by John W. Gordon, War
Department director.
No admission will be charged ,and
the exhibit will be open to the public
from 2 until 10 p. m. on each of the
three days, with afternoon and even
ing stage shows at 3:30 and 8 pm.
Sponsored in Omaha by the Pro
duction Urgency Committee of the
War Production Board, in cooperat
ion with the AAF and the War Fin
ance Committee of the Treasury De
partment, ‘‘Shot from the Sky” is be
ing exhibited here to emphasize the
need for increased production of war
material, to urge those not now en
gaged in essential industry to take
war jobs and to stimulate the purch
ase of war bonds through the payroll
savings plan.
Mechanical center-pieces of the ex
hibit are a Nazi Messerschmidt 109F
fighter plane captured intact in Afri
ca, a Japanese Army pursuit ship
shot down in the South Pacific, a
German Junkers 88 bomber and the
fuselage of a Jap Mitsubishi bomb
er. Other displays include plane en
gines, tail assemblies, barrage ball
oons, guns and ammunition, parach
utes, radio equipment, link-trainer,
photo-murals, war paintings and a
special Women’s Army Corps exhib
it.
Air Wacs who accompany the ex
hibit perform almost every conceiv
able type of work, from assembling
the German and Japanese planes to
acting as guides and lectures when
the display is in progress. In addit
ion to handling the captured equip
ment, they conduct a WAC field
headquarters tent in which they dem
onstrate control tower operation,
pohotgraphy and many other of the
239 jobs their organization contribut
es to the Air Forces.
Combat veterans, representing each
of the 15 U. S. Army Air Forces,
drive trucks, operate the heavy cran
es necessary to move the Axis air
craft, supervise assembly of the link
trainer (device used to teach our pi
lots blind flying), set up the portable
stage composed of four trailers plac
ed end to end and direct the raising
of the barrage balloon which will fly
daily over Fort Omaha during the
exhibit’s stay.
Nightly programs from the 80-foot
stage will feature prominent military
and civilian guest speakers, Air Fore
es’ pilots just back from combat, the
Fort Des Moir.es WAC band, the
Union Pacific chorus, the North
High School rifle squad and local
radio and entertainment stars.

To Our Customers:
For the sole purpose of trying to prejudice you
against our Company, unfair interpretation has been made
of the testimony given in the recent legislative committee
hearing. This has been done in an effort to get you to
believe there has been something "sinister" and "secret"
in our activities to keep our Company under private owner
ship, and to keep your electric service out of the hands
of politicians.
Any implication or inference that we have done any
thing that was not straight-forward and above-board is
untrue, and unfair to our Company and its employees. The
hearing brought forth not one item of testimony to the
contrary. The Legislative Council's’record will show that
every bit of information the committee sought was freely
given, - that no attempt was made to cover up anything.
At the outset, as you will undoubtedly recall, we
announced publicly that our Company would do everything
within its power, and spend whatever money was necessary
to prevent a small clique in Omaha from socializing your
electric service for their own selfish purposes. We have
spent not one penny more than you would have spent, pro
portionately, to protect your property.
The people of Omaha, time and again, have overwhelm
ingly indicated that they want the Nebraska Power Company
to continue to serve them. We shall continue to pay for
any activities we believe necessary to protect our Company
and keep your electric service on its present high plane.
We repeat what we have stated many times before:
If it were not for the unfair attacks made on our Company.
we would not have been forced to spend this money. But as
long as efforts are being made to force our Company out
of business, we shall continue to fight back. Surely you
would have little respect for us if we did otherwise.
Sincerely yours,
J. E. Davidson, President

CAMP CLAIRBORNE
One of our boys in the service of
Uncle Sam,
Was shot and killed by an offcer
at Camp Clairborne.
Sunday, Sept, the third, nineteen
hundred and forty.-four.
The same old story heard many tim
es before—
One lone soldier outnumbered by
three or more,
Trying to protect himself the best
he can.
From his tormentors’ cruel hand.
Broke away and ran to escape.
The cruel torture of prejudice and
hate.
To tell the naked truth—
The of friers made a holiday of
God's Holy Day!
To torture and kill one of our group
The German Gestapo if you please,
Would gladly welcome such as these
Who value human life so cheap —
Torture and death is their belief.
Offcers who are so inhuman.
Are untit to command—
And Uncle Sam should take a hand.
And relieve them of their command.
A soldier is a human being,
Who has pledged his life if need be
To his country in the cause of lib
erty.
And regardless of color or nation
ality.
Should be treated humanly 1
Our hearts are filled with sorrow—
To know that our GI Joe,
Is suffering cruel persecution,
In army caifips throughout the
southland,
The very same brand that our na
tive land,
Called them to fight and end,
In a foreign land.
