When the Wash Woman
Sees the Name Pray
; -on Your Shirt
All fear of the results of laundering disappears. She
knows that in all her years at the tub and boiler not
one single shirt has gone wrong.
We buy shirts that we know will stand up that
will not fade, and that are not "loaded" to give
appearance. We guarantee theta to give "hon
est service" and look right very time you wear
them. i ,
I -
Why take chances with shirts that are not guaranteed? It doesnt
cost any more the only difference is in .the policy of the store
you buy them from. We are here to serve you so well that you
will never want to trade elsewhere. . .

Do not forget that the presidential contest in Nebraska
next Tuesday will be between Leonard Wood and ,
Hiram Johnson. r
Do not forget that jn the final selection, regardless of
how the Nebraska primaries go, the contest will narrow
down to an issue between .two sets of principles, those '
represented by Leonard Wood and Hiram Johnson.
Do not forget that the final selection of a candidate for
president will not be influenced by personal preferences
Or appeals for favorite sons.
r l r. :. au j?;t t-Lj : i
? 'by two lines of thought and sentiment, one of these be-
ihg homely Americanism and orthodox republicanism
, as exemplified by Leonard Wood, and the other being
a glossed-over radicalism always and forever alien to
'the spirit of Americanism, as typified in Hiram Johnson.
Do not forget that the grist that comes from the Chi
cago convention will be ground between these two mill
stones, and that in all human probability the loaf that
.will come from that grist will be the "daily bread" of
the people of this country for four years following the 1
fourth of next March.
Do not forget that men are transient, but that principles
are eternal, that political policies are f or( today, but that
the spoken and acted truth is forever.-..'
Dp not forget that when you commence to acquire learns J
ing you begin with the primer, so also that when you
begin to create manhood and develop citizenship your
first primer lesson is at the primaries, where! political
v organization finds early expression and the potent
agencies of civil government are set in motion hence
the duty of every voting man and woman to reason con
scientiously, act intelligently and decide deliberately
in the voting booth with no other prompter or witness'
than their conscience and their God.
,Do not forget that the professional politician and'thepo- .
litical promoter have ways of their own that are past
. finding out, but that without variation their purpose is
always the same, to place the candidate above the is
sue and the 6pportunity above the weal of the common
wealth. , , . '
' Do not forget that in this state, Where the principles of
" Roosevelt took rniraculous hold upon the minds of the
people, ' we cannot honor his memory by (betraying his '
- disciple, his lifelong friend and his greatest living ex
emplar, Leonard Wood. ( . , )
Do not forget that John J, Pershing does not fit into any '
consistent political program for 1920, and that Hiram
Johnson disqualified himself for. even charitable con
sideration by his treachery of 1916, through which and
. whereby Charles E. Hughes was stricken down at the
. Johnson doorstep. , 1 .
