It is true that some voters probably dwift vote for anyone in at hast one race out of six, but more than likely the shortage of votes m some races was through the mistakes The ridiculous thing about this is that help is there and waiting to assist a person in learning the use of a machine. The help does'nt watch you vote, but simply teaches you how to use the machine in a very short time. It is a shame, that some Jose their vote or even part of thcur vote due to misunderstanding of the machine.

aad make pasting grades This is the first time 1 have ever been in real trouble ” OUR REPLY: Once In real trouble, several times tn 'small* trouble, either is enough fur most parents to want to stop their daughter from seeing a particular boy You can I blame parents for this attitude. I/etY look at a similar problem If you drive an automobile, you want insurance It s a nice thing to have If someone is injured in an accident which laguur fault, iruur-

' ance can be a lifesaver If you damage your own car accidentally, an insurance policy provides money for needed repairs Yet. if you have one little accident after another, then majbe one or two big ones, your insurance company is going to consider that you arc "accident prone” and accordingly a very poor insurance risk Some boys are “trouble prone” —little trouble most of the lime, perhaps, but still trouble most o< the Ume What can you do about It if thia Is your problem’ Examine carefully Consider the places you ge, the people you know, the things you do that lead to these little troubles. Make the necessary changes. Prove to yourself that trouble doesn't follow you everywhere you go Once you convince yourwlf, you won't have to convince others They will be able to see fur themselves. । l! ,vv Save • te«nac« prnMvm »«• v»nt iv <luu«. ar an >»»<•« tv tH»k«. > •'M'vm )<*r iMin tv XIH IBM t .
