It is, if we keep the oath we took under a shower of shot- gun pellets somewhere on North Moun- tain last Fall. We were a little late for the World Wiar and except for the occasional raids on our office by irate subscribers we have never been what you might call “under fire”. Never, that is, until that fine, crisp, brittle day last Fall. We have often wondered what those hunters were shooting at. We should hesitate to accuse them of trying to kill us. But there wags nothing else in sight. « And had we been less fleet we might be mounted on the wall of somebody’s game room today. It is a rather blood-chilling experi- ence to hear lead singing about your ears. Probably none of it was very close to our ears and our ears are big enough to give the vital spots a pretty fair 'margin of safety. But we were taking no chances. We dropped —and we stayed dropped until the pellets which were looking for us gave up the search. In that moment we took the oath to stay out of the woods during Novem- ber and December. We have held to it so far. This week, while our friends braved the hail of gunfire which raked every hill where a rab- bit bounced or a pheasant lurked, we sat safely at our desk, our calm brok- en only by the dull echoes of conflict in the Huntsville sector. There is only one thing we should like to know about the day we ran the gamut of gunfire. We should like to know how, on that day when our life hung by a thread, they managed to get a French 75 up North Mountain. Wie should like to meet the gentleman who accomplished that. Citizens Select Election Boards Voting Officials Are Named In Three Local Towns Although not as important as the contests for bigger offices the cam- paigns by candidates for judge of elec- tion and inspector in voting precincts in Dallas Borough and Kingston and Dallas Township were ‘marked by spir- ited rivalry in a number of cases on Tuesday. At the General Election’ voters select a judge of election and a majority and minority inspector. In most cas- es there were only names of two in- spectors on the voting machine so it was merely a question of giving one the majority over the other. In all cases Republicans received more votes than their Dmocratic opponents. The judges selected in the eight local vot- ing precincts also are Republican, The results of Tuesday's voting fol- low: Dallas Borough North District: Clint Bollinger, Re- publican, judge; John E. Roberts, Republican, majority inspector; Steph- Tomasick, Democrat, minority in- spector.
