Have you ever heard the cry of the self-pitying man on the street who is so open and free who haven't any right to say every community in our land. When election day rolls round, they are either too busy to be bothered for a few minutes at the polls, or the hunting gives promise of more enjoyment. . Despite the fact that both the Republican and Democratic coun- ty chairmen and their workers have for many years been trying to stir up the non-voters, there are probably a couple of tens of thousand people in Cambria Co. who could qualify to vote, and will not. Yet, these same people, in the main, are the very folks who have the most at stake per- sonally in who constitutes their elected personnel.

That, of | course, means that unless you do register somewhere this week you will not be included in the num- ber of good citizens who can vote this Fall. It will be an easy job to register. No one will need go far to do it. It won't take up more than a few minutes of your town, and it certainly won't cost you anything.

Though two of her cities rank among the 10 largest in the land, Pennsylvania is one of Am- erica’s great agricultural states, holding second place in rural pop- uiation. Though she is but 32nd among the 48 states in size, she ranks second in total population. Though she is world-famous for preeminence in industry, one-half of her land is covered by beauti- ful forest which afford pleasant areas for recreation.

A man who studies the poli- tical situation in Northern Cam- bria, remarked the other day that there are between ten and fifteen thousand men and wo- men in our area, north of Eb- ensburg, who are not registered and cannot vote. That seems a large number, but the state- ment undoubtedly is correct. No one of these people would con- sider themselves as not being true American citizens in the full sense of the word. Howev- er, the very fact that they can your doorstep and registered you and the others in the hou- sehold, there might not be so much difficulty in getting all on the registration books.
