Some people may think and say to
themselves, "I will not go near the
pons." because certain individuals rule
or run our local politics. This Is the
wrong view to take of this matter, our
local elections are oi vast importance,
noi only to ourselves, out to our lam
Hies as well. We must remember that
our children attend the publia schools
aaiiv. and to keeo un mis soienata in
stitution it requires school directors
who have ability and euergetlcnnss
about them. Is this not an inducement
to bring you to the polls T Vote for
men who will de the most good, men
who will Dlace our little burg In the
line of progress, and lastly men who
win serve not tne wants or one person,
nut or an tue people.
