HAS HOPES FOR

Former Governor of New
Jersey Believes Taft Will
Be Elected.
(United Press Leased Wt.)
Chicago, Oct. 17. "Former Governor
JTranWIn Murphy, national Republican
committeeman from New Jersey, at na
tional headquarters declared his belief
that Taft would be elected and that
New Jersey would be In the Republican
column. .
Mr. Murphy aald there was no doubt
about the outcome but said there was
some anxiety In his mind over New
Jersey. The difference between doubt
and anxiety as carefully expounded by
the former governor seems to be about
the difference between mist and rain.
"In New Jersey things are looking
brighter every day for the Republi
cans," he said. 'There Is no doubt
Kffwrtlnn unions? the labor voters
and a large number of negroes are dis
loyal to the Republican party.- Both
these things, however, are being over

ALBANY GOES DOWN -BEFOKE
WILLAMETTE
(Spertal Dispatch to The Journal.)
Salem, Oct. 17. Albany college was
defeated In a Kama with Willamette uni
versity on the campus this afternoon by
a Bcore of 9 to 6.
The game was spectacular and was
replete with long end rune and frequent
punting. Tne teams were everuy
matched. Willamette displayed a better
knowleee of the game and more expert
ence, though weak at critical moments,
which deficiency allowed Albany to
score a touchdown.
Both scores were made In the first
half. Low and Booth proved to be Wil
lamette's best ground gainers.

O you know that just changing your
watch from one pocket to another in
which you have not been accustomed
to carry.it is enough to so seriously ef
fect its timekeeping qualities that it may change
it from a good timekeeper to a poor one?
You didn't know a watch could be as sensi
tive as all that, did you? ,
Every good jeweler knows it, however. Every
maker of watches knows it, and yet, of all the
watches made, andjseld, there is only one in all
the world whose makers care enough about the
kind of time their watches keep and the satis
factory service they give
those who buy and carry
them, to see that each watch
is adjusted and regulated to
the person and the pocket of
the individual who is to
carry it.
We . cannot too often re
peat that just as much care is
used in selecting the jeweler
. to sell you a SOUTH BEND
watch as is used in making
the watch itself SOUTH
BE'D WATCHES are sold
only by reliable jewelers, by
competent jewelers, by the best jeweler in each
community, who has the skill and experience
and intelligence, to properly adjust and care for
them. Before a jeweler is permitted to sell a
SOUTH BEND WATCH, he must satisfy us
that he is competent to assist you in selecting
the watch exactly suited to your needs, and ad
just it, as everj' good timekeeper must be ad
justed by a jeweler, in such a manner as to give
you the greatest amount of timekeeping serv
ice f of' your money.
We are as proud of the jewelers who sell
SOUTH BEXD WATCHES as we are of the
watches. They are the best jewelers and the
best watches that there are in the world.
No extra charge is made for this service.
- We gladly, pay the jeweler for his assistance
to you that we may know that every purchaser
SOUTH BEND
of a SOUTH BEND watch has a satisfactory
timepiece.
But such care in selling SOUTH BEND
WATCHES would all be wasted if the watch
itself did not deserve the care. So we put all
the skill that mony and experience can com
mand into SOUTH BEND watches, making
them , grade for grade superior to any other
watch made. They are watches for the hustling,
rough-and-tumble life you lead, designed to
withstand without effect the bumps and jars
and jolts, the vibration of trains and automo
biles, horseback riding, and violent changes in
which temperature other
watches may not stand.
Every SOUTH BEND
watch, before it leaves the
factory, must undergo tests
in a refrigerator at freerlng
as the worst strain you will
ever give it It is' baked in
an oven and kept for hours
that are twice as severe
point, to demonstrate that it
will keep perfect time with
out being influenced by the
changes in temperature. It
must keep in temperature.
You might freeze ft in a block of ice without
injuring it in the slightest degree.
And all this extreme care in making and test
ing and selling costs you nothing.
Your jeweler will gladly show you this beau
tiful modern watch and tell you about it. He
will explain you why SOUTH BEND
watches keep better tjme than any other watch.
If your jeweler is not one of our 10,000 author
ized representatives, send us his name and we
will take the matter up with him personally,
and also send you free, our handsome book,
"How Good Watches Are Made," and a little
device showing how a' SOUTH BEND watch
adjust itself to every temperature,
