Good Business Cannot Thrive on Bad News In Nebraska there are many hundreds of good citizens who » are engaged in the business of ' selling beer at retail. They are 1 citizens who appreciate, and (have accepted, the responsibil ity as well as the privilege which their beer license con j veys. ! j j These beer retailers are strir | ing to conduct places of which J your community can be proud. | They know that even one tav , ern where law and sociaK , ■ decency are not respected, can cast a shadow on every beer , retailer throughout the state. That is why good beer retail ers appreciate the work of the J Nebraska Committee whose efforts arc directed at helping : eliminate those few who are i making “bad news” for the many.

She takes all his money and when he gets drunk she beats him like he was a dog with sticks. He has no one to say a kind word to him when he drinks and he stays drunk every Sat- , urday and Sunday. He wants to get rid of her but don’t know how. Ans: He needs to stay sober and he will be treated with more respect. Lie ing with a drunk is a miserable exist j enre and his wife's patience is about exhausted. If it takes a little rough treatment to keep him in line, he may as well expect it as long as he slops up the rum. Since she has shown she is handy with the stick, you had bet ter not crowd her too much. Leave her man alone. [ Wishful—I love musiic so well and | guess I always will. I try not to hut | it seems to stay in my soul. Would it be well to join a club or forget about ( it if possible? Ans: Join a music club and your church choir too and continue ex-' periencing the satisfaction you aerive from music. I should think a girl your age would like to take music lessons as it will net you a lot of personal happiness all of your life. L. C.—I met a guy that's really nice to go out with and doesn’t mind spending his money. He has another ' friend whom I know that he goes with pretty regularly. I am not a jealous person but I do not intend to be the table cloth and surely won't be the dish cloth. Fact is, 1 don't want him taking me and her out and the next thing 1 know he'll be married to her. Ans: That’s a chance all single J people must take. Surely, you don'i i expect the fellow to give up all his girl friends and court you only when you have known each other for such a short time. Competition works both ways — encourage a couple of other nice boy friends yourself annd do not let him take you for granted. You'll never win a man unless you stay in the battle and fight, A. M.—I have been going with a man for nearly a year but now that the problem of marriage has come up, I don’t think it would work. He is 37 years old but that doesn’t matter as I prefer that age. But he never kisses me, never tell me he love me, -never seems to have any desire for me. I do all the kissing. He is nice about giving me presents but doesn't satisfy ' me, I want love. We are fussing re-1 guiariy now. Am i wrong in thinking a man should show a woman he loves her with hugs, kisses and kind words? ' .4ns: Not at all—every girl expects a lover as well as a husband when she marries. He cares for you—but he has been through this phase in life with his first wife and would feel embarrassed to ‘ bill and coo’ before his half grown children. He’s too old for you as you could never fall into ' his serious routine. Pick husband nearer your own age. D. M. P.—I am nearly 20. I didn't quite finish high school. I wonder if I should go back and finish up. A boy asked me to marry hiim but he isn t here now. Do you think I have Black Eagle Herb Medicine For Weak Folks If you suffer with weak back, ( Kidney, Bladder Gas, Constipation, Indigestion, Billiousness, Rundown Nerves, Cramps, Rheumatism, Less of Womanhood, and Manhood, try this I medicine.

It uill be at least a year before the young man in question is in a posi tion to marry as he is still over seas. Meanwhile, finish high school and take a course of study in some speci fic field or go to college. Don't fust sit around waiting to get married. J. S. N.—There is a man of 25 whom I like quite a lot and he seems the same way about me. Here ia my pro blem. His wife has put in for a div orce and is telling the people I am the cause when her husband hadn't even spoken to me until after she asked for a divorce. Do you think I should disregard what people say and go On with him as he is nice. I want to keep my reputation. A ns: W ell—Knock him ofj your list 7s you will lose your reputation b} continuing this friendship. He is not divorced and even though yOu did not know him until he and his wife were having domestic troubles, your pre sence has added to her grief and she hold nothing but bitterness in her heart for you. There are too many attractive single fellows who want to date you for you to be Wasting your time with a man who is married. James H. Robinson, Jr„ M.D. 7 *4 y»Ui PubUttlumi Native of Cincinnati.

To,300 cities during the next twelve months, the Freedom Train will carry the record of America’s heritage •— all the documents that mark the growth of liberty in the United States. Three carloads of America’s birthright make up the Freedom Train — the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, Jefferson’s Bill of Religious Freedom, the Gettysburg Address, the Emancipation Proc lamation — the written guarantees of the American way of life. Here is your right to say what you please; to worship as you see fit; to talk over your common problems with your neighbors. Here is your right to trial by jury; to equal protection under the law, whether you are rich or poor, white or black, Catholic, Protestant or Jewish. Here, too, is the foundation for labor’s rights — the safeguards that | make it possible for workers to unite in strong unions and i fight for decent working conditions. I Here are all the rights and freedoms of democracy — but documents alone can’t keep democracy in action. To do that takes citizenship. It takes men and women who know their heritage and will work to keep it; who join in community activities, who vote in elections, who fight to keep their rights and the rights of their neighbors from being attacked. American workers have learned that eternal vigilance is the price of their freedom. They will be more vigilant than ever before. The Freedom Train highlights a year of re dedication to American ideals and labor will lead the way. Together, in strong unions, workers of every race and creed will prove that alert and active Americans know how to protect their heritage — in the shops, in the communities, in Congress. The Freedom Train is o.; its way. freedom is tverybody’s job. [ Contractor | See Bailey First f SPECIALIZING IN PATCH WORK.
