Berg Says General Stands for All That Is High est and Best In American ' Manhood. "General Pershing's father, John Pershing, used to travel in Nebraska for a Chicago clothing house, as did - General Pershing's brother, James Pershing. And the father at one time lived in Lincoln. I knewboth the father and brother very well, and, of course, I am in favor of General Pershing for president of tlie United States." Thus spoke O. E. Berg, president ot the Berg Clothing company. "I am most heartily in favor of the nomination of General Pershing for tne presidency, continued Air. Berg, "I want to see General Pershing nominated by the Chicago conven tion and afterwards elected by the people, not only because he is a Jvebraskan, but also because he has demonstrated that he is eminently qualified to discharge the duties of chief executive of this nation. Cen tral Pershing is a big man m every way, and I believe that if he is elected president, his administration will be one of the best the country has ever had." 'l ' Knew Pershing on Road. Mr. Berg has been a. well known Omaha merchant for many years. Previous to entering business for a long time he travelled in Nebraska for a big Chicago clothing house. One of the men., with whom he used to travel in the old days and knew intimately was- John Pershing, fa llier of Nebraska's candidate for the presidency.

"There is mighty good stuff in the Perilling family," said Mr. Berg, re calling the days when he was a fel low travellor in Nebraska of the efder Pershing and his son. "John Pershing, General Pershing's father, lived at Lincoln for a sort time, back in the eighties and I think that at that time his daughter. Miss May Pershing, was a student at the state university.' John Pershing met and became well acquainted with many of the merchants in Nebraska back in the days when he travelled in this state. I went from town to town with him in those days and came to know him very well indeed. He was, a fine, honest, upstanding man. and everybody who knew him re spected and liked him. He was a large man larger, as I recall, than his famous soiv-and was what you would cajl a 'raw-boned Yankee.' He was one of those men who look you squarely in the eye and give vou an impression ot honesty and shrewd ness. "i met General Pershing, as I re call, when he was at West Point. I have followed his career with a great deal of interest and am ex tremely proud of him. as every other Nebraskan should be. He is a man of excellent mind, of the highest character and of great poise. Like most other Americans who have achieved great things, he has won success through his own ef forts by diligent application to bus iness and by the exercise of great natural talents. "Whv shouldn't Nebraska be in favor of Pershing for president, I should like to know? Isn't he a cit izen of this state? Isn't lie one of us now? Isn't he one of the world's most illustrious men? Hasn't he measured up to every demand made upon him? If there is a better or ganizer, a better executive in this country than he has shown himself to be, I don't know where you would look to find him. General Pershing, wou'd make an excellent president, and I'm for him with all my heart, as every Nebraskan should be." John A. Bachelor Quits State Gubernatorial Race Lincoln, Neb., April 6.

A Si iJS MrKennev Dentists 1324 Farnam St. Corner 14th and Farnam Phone Douglas 2872 The Cold That 4 Hangs On This is No. 5 of a series of advertisements, prepared by a competent physician, explaining how certain diseases which attack the air passages such as Pneumonia, Influenza, Whoop ing Cough, Measles or even a long continued Cold often leave these organs in an inflamed, congested state, thus affording a. favorable foothold for invading germs. And how Vick's Vapo Rub may be of value in this condition. A cold is simply an inflamma tion of some part of the air pas sages throat, larynx or bronchial tubes just like a sore is an in flammation of the skin. A long continued cold means constant inflammation and this constant inflammation frequently weakens the air passages so that they become an easy point of attack for invading germs of more serious diseases. A "cold that hangs on," therefore, is simply nature's "red flag" indicating that there is "trouble below," and this warning should never be neglected. Nightly applications of Vick's VapoRub will aid nature to clear up that inflammation. Because Vicks acts locally by stimulation thru the skin to draw out the inflammation, attract the blood away from the congested spots and relieve the cough. In addi tion, the medicinal ingredients of Vicks are vaporized by the body heat. These vapors are breathed in all night long, thus bringing the medication to bear directly upon the inflamed areas. Vicks should be rubbed in over the throat and chest until the skin is red then spread on thickly and covered with hot flannel cloths Leave the cloth ing loose around the neck and the bed clothes arranged in the form of a funnel so the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. If the cough . is annoying, swallow a small bit of Vicks the size of a pea Samples to new users will be sent free on request to The Vick Chemical Company, 235 Broad Street, Greensboro, N.

Dr. Harry Newell, prominent republican of this city, announced today that he would immediately begin organizing republicans of this county for Persh ing. Dr. Newell said: "The people of Nebraska hardly realize what it is possible for a president to do. All of our chief ex ecutives having been eastern men, they do not vet understand the ad vantages of electing a man who will represent their section of the coun try. The state has a wonderful op portunity in General Pershing, and it seems certain that after a little thought the people will see the logic of voting for a Nebraskan instead of a man from New Hampshire or California." 1 . .
