BUSINESS MEN WORK FOR COMMON CAUSE ‘Lay Aside All Diverse Opinions and Pull Together for Greater, Rioher and a Bigger Omaha. RESULTS ARE NOW SHOWING A large and favorably known business concern displays prominently in all its advertising a statement or slogan to the effect that “‘the world Is growing better And one of the leading concerns of Omaha boldly advertises, “Business is zood, thank you..'

But, how different things are today! Consider, now, the new competition. New competition! What's that—new competi- tion? Well, its the same—only different.
