but his opinion and representation of the people of his aiea is t! ■ important part. An other thing th it often ent, , s a po.itical campaign is •m d- mgmg A candidate wim < n t tel. ut his go.a s. but tr.es tn e’ev t* h.mscli by trying Ui nvci h s opponent, is not a 1 candidate. Many radical party members imt and rave everytime a < and. date of their choice cm tbuow u; some 'dim or ’digs' it an opponent, but neither the candidates or the listener shows any degree of into.licence in a move such as this. The issues at hand are important enough to take more time than a p rlitician has if he is to follow through his convictions. but the effort extended passes on to his constituunts. his sincere desire to seive the peop e he represents Election years aie busy years They c tn be very interesting or they can be boring, ft depends on what you. as a voter. desires to m ike of the campaign. If you arc serving yoursc t right, you wi.l desire to pu.l out the f ids of camp' ign speech s adveiticng. etc., and weigh the candidates. man for man against each other instead of party against party, as so often Is the case. * Before it is all over, most peop e will have had their fill ot the campaigns. However, the satisfaction on election day of voting fo r the candidate who you feel will best represent you. has to be one that many peop e cannot enjoy. The democratic system we ha,ve, although not perfect, still is the best that can be found and the success of it is you the voter, who makes the decision behind that curtain come election day. Pan now to vote and vote fo r the candidate you are most impressed with, not just the man who represents a party you like to call you r own. You will gain satisfaction if you do.

M S G For the last lew thousand yaars or so, menfo.k have been living to figure out vvomenfo.k, and there s n >t mm h ev.dt nee to show that the menfolk are any further ahead than they were in the beg.lining. But that they keep on trying is ind.cated by an electricians Manual on Women, which accord.ng to editor Bill Eubanks of Tahasse I'A abamat Tribune contains the following iughvo.tage suggestions: ’When a woman is sulky and Wih not speak: Exciter. When she gets to excited: Controller. If she talks to long: Interrupter. If her thoughts don't agree with yours: Converter. If she is wJhng to come half way: Meter If she wants to go farther: Conductor. If she will go still farther. Dispatcher. It her dress unhooks: Connector. If she eats too much: Reducer If she is wrong: Rectifier If she is cold to you: Heatei If she gossips too much: Regulator. If she fumes and sputters too much: Insulator. If she becomes upset: Reverser.' Not being electricians, we’re not about to vouch for the reccommendations, since we’ve already learned that women must be approached with caution, least one gets a shock; any husband can testify to that. MSG - Voice Os The People T nvn- Trusievs Wa kerton. Indiana G nt emen: I believe you should annex the land of and around the new high school and in that general area so that our Town can develop in that direction with the benefit of police file protection, city water and sewers. Why should we who live in Town pay all the expense of providing the facilities and the conveniences of a Town to those who live just outside the Town limits* I understand that some people are opposed to the annexation even though they do busmsM with the Town and or may even work for tt. It they don't want to pay then they shouldn't take the "Hay.'' Very truly yours. A Longtime Businessman Mr. Editor, the article which the Third District Democratic Chairman had in the paper tof course it was not signed so maybe it was the editor'si must have been an untruth for it started out with iXuir Mr. Newman. As you read on you see that he 1S not so dear to him. He might be < hairmam of the party Third Di trict. but h< doesn’t believe n a Democratic country where everyone has an equal chance.

Mr. Newman has a right to use terms tha.t express what he means The World Book Dictionary says; constipation is a sluggish condition of the bowels and the bowe.s of country are the ropiestntatives in congress. The dicl.onary also says that nausea is a feedng that one has when about to vomit; a so extreme disgust. You did not go on'and tell that he was a pharmasist talking to a group of doctors who would know what he meant. Evin 1 wou.d know that when he sa.d constipation, he meant not moving in the right direction. Maybe Mr. Brademas and the Tnird D strict Chairman would nol know. Yours truly, Arthur L. Lane (Ed.tors Note: The letter !n question was written by the late Ernest Bixel, Third District (’ni.i man who died unexpected.y Tuesd ty afternoon. The ommiss.on of the name was my mist i?.c i s we heard of Mr. Bixel's deaih late Wednesday and the name was pmled with an expl nation of Mr B.xe.’s death me. nt to replace it but in the late hour near pre-s time it was unpurpose.y omitted) Dear Sir: I thmk you ought to put your paper on record as supp ting the efforts of the Wa.kerton Town Board in extending ihe Town hin ts to include ’all” of the Town Our "Community" is larger than the present Town limits, md we all benefit some more than others by the fact that the Town of Walkerton has a good fire department, has a good police force, has good local industries, has good stores shop, and restaurants. has good postal service, has a good library, has good schools and churches, has a good bank has good medical service, and many othe r good features and services. The benefits do not stop at the Town line but are enjoyed by all, and I think you and your paper ought to lead in the effort to expand our town limits to inciude ad of.the "Commuiuty" that enjovi our many blessings I th.nk those living just across ' the line'' outside the Town should be sold on coming along with the rest of us to develop more of the good things we already enjoy.
