plus a legitimate profit must constitute the selling price.
No business can stand long that varies from this law.
When cost of production INCREASES that increase Is
almost invariably borne by the consumer. ,
It is. common knowledge that everything essential for
our health and well being now costs more money.
It is also a fact that everyone engaged in production
from the hod carrier to the professional man is of ne-
. cessity receiving more for his services in order that he
may live despite advancing costs.
It stands to reason therefore that the man who depends
solely on "cut prices" and "cheap work" must neces
sarily deliver INFERIOR GOODS OR SERVICE OR
BOTH and eventually the public wilt understand this.

GOVERNOR HOT
REQUIRED TO
GOTOMNSION
Chief Executive of Nebraska
to Continue to Reside in
Own Home in
Lincoln.
Lincoln, Neb. 15. (Special)
Governor McKelvie is not required
to live in the executive mansion, but
the building cannot be used for any
other purpose, as the law now
stands.. This is the ruling of Attor
ney General Davis on the questions
submitted to him by the State Board
of Education, Lands and Funds, and
the governor last week.
Governor McKelvie announced to
day that he would abide by the de
cision of the attorney general and
take no steps toward converting the
mansion into quarters for state of
fices. He also announced, as he has
previously indicated, that he would
not make his official home in the
mansion, inasmuch as he has his own
heme in Lincoln.
Attorney General Davis is of the
opinion that the legislature of 1889
may have exceeded its constitutional
powers when it included in the $25,
000 appropriation hill for the pur
chase and equipment of a mansion
a proviso requiring the governor to
live there. He points out that the
statutes revised, by the legislature in
1913, as prepared by the state code
commission and "re-enacted, by the
legislature, omit ihat enactment; so
that in any event it would, not be
operative now. vv.
The governor, not the State Board
of Educational Lands and Funds,
has the control of the mansion, At
torney General Davis says.

SCHOOL BY BILL
Senator Perry Reed Prepares
Measure That Practically
Eliminates Attendance
During Week.
From a Staff Correspondent.
Lincoln, Jan. 15. (Special)-
Numerous bills relative to instruc
tion in the English language in the
public schools have been introduced
in both branches of the legislature.
Senator Perry Reed of Hamilton
county, elected on a platform pledg
ing him to work for legislation ban
ishing foreign influences from the
schools, has introduced a compre
hensive bill amending the school
laws to bring about that object
Reed is chairman of the commit
tee on education in the senate and
it is believed the bill will receive
favorable consideration there.
Attendance Required.
The Reed measure requires at
tendance of all boys from 7 to 16-
and girls from 7 to 17 in city dis
tricts, to attend the public schools
during the full school year.
In village and rural districts, pub
lic school attendance is required in
varying periods from 100 to 140 days,
depending upon the length of the
term and the distance the pupil lives
from school.
Exceptions are made where chil
dren of 15 years or upwards are
working to support themselves or
their dependents or pn account of
mental and physical incapacity.
Public night schools are to be main
tained for those who are absent in
the daytime because of their neces
sary employment. Deaf and blind
children must be sent to the state
schools provided for their education.

Come Ride in the

AH motordora has waited a year for tfte Essex. ' , -
Dealers have ventured all sorts of descriptions for it.
Bat today it is having its premier showing in hundreds cf
cities and towns throughout America. I
For months the trade papers have given first prominence
to whatever news they could get of its details.
Their. interest was awakened because it combines the
advantages of the light low priced car, and its economy,
with the performance, sturdiness and beauty of the large
and costly car. One leading writer proclaimed the Essex
a new development in motor car transportation.
Don't you want to be among the first in this locality
to see the car that has awakened this interest? We wish
you would come and ride in it for

You Are To Do
I ts Advertising
We have long wanted to reveal the details of the fessex.
But the manufacturers said they wanted the car to speak
for itself. They said no description that could be applied
to it would create as favorable an impression as would
result from a ride in the car.
Even now we hesitate to praise the Essex since we can
say nothing .that has not already been claimed in praise for
some other , car. ,
So the endorsement it is to receive is such as you and.
other thousands of motorists volunteer to give. All we ask'
is that you come see and ride in it. ,.
We Were Surprised
Let U Surprise You
When we went to the factory to see the
Essex we wanted to know in advance some
thing of its detail. But we were told that
was for us to discover as we inspected and
rode in the car.
Perhaps we would have been skeptical
and have concluded there was nothing un
usual about .the Essex if we had not known

m this state. It it hereby made the
duty of the county superintendent
and the county attorney ot each
county to enforce the provisions of
this article.
Parents and custodians of children
are made liable to a minimum fine
of $10 for violating the act while
county officials who fail to enforce
it may be convicted, of a misdemean
or and tmed the same amount, oe

Eight months, instead of seven, is
fixed as the minimum school year in

While the act does not do away
with parochial' schools its provis

able to operate when the public
schools are in session. They could
still be held on Saturday during
vacation periods and during the
hours the' children are not in at

In the house; H. R. No. 4, by Rep

the parochial school to that time

H. R. No. 30, introduced by Rep
resentative McKee of Otoe county,
provides for instruction only in
English in all schools, public and

What a Ride
Proved to U
Qrat first experience was a ride over a road so rough that
you would willingly go miles out of the way to avoid if
you were in the average light car.
We took it at high speed, but the effect in both the front
and rear seats was more in keeping' with what you might
expect in riding over a smooth pavement.
Then we drove into soft sand where the wheels sunk in
below the felloes, going through as though it were thin mud.
Every test that reveals performance was shown us.
There were no squeaks. The motor did not labor. The car
had been in similar service for months and still retained
its appearance of newness. These are things we want to
show you. A demonstration like that which surprised us
is ready for you if you will come to our store.
The Essex is Built ,
To Endure
Every part that wears is adjustable. Hard service can
not loosen the body nor twist the radiator. It is so sturdily
built that the frame remains solid and rigid over the roughest
roads and through the hardest service. The motor
is practically free from vibration. If you were
blindfolded and placed in the Essex without
having seen it and then were given such a
ride as we want you to take with us,you would
likely say you were in a large and costly car. '
After you have ridden in the Essex we
will tell you all about it
Then, we think you will be so enthusiastic
you will tell everyone you know that you
have ridden in the most surprising car you
have ever seen.
