Registration Facts

There are well founded objections to various

provisions of the revised registration law of Indiana, but the fact remains that any citizen to qualify himself as a voter in November must comply with the law. Registration of the voters will take place on October 5 and it is well that all voters should be familiar with this section of the registration law: "At the session of the board of registration every male person who at the time resides in the precinct in which he applies for registration, and who will be of the age of 21 years or upwards at

the next ensuing November election and is a! citizen of the United States, or if not a citizen of the United States, who, if he continues to reside in the precinct until the following November election, will at that time have resided in the state of Indiana during the six months and in "the United States during the one year immediately preceding such election, and who shall have resided in the township sixty days and in the ward or precinct thirty days before such election, if he continues to reside in such precinct until such election, shall be entitled, upon proper application, to be registered in such precinct. No other person nor persons shall be entitled to be so registered. Nothing in this act shall be construed as qualifying or attempting to qualify any person to vote at any election, who, even though registered, did not be so qualified if there were no registration act in force in this state; the purpose of this act being to provide for and require registration in addition to the

requirements of the election laws and the constitution of the state of Indiana."

It should also be borne in mind that residents

of this county outside its borders on the date of

registration have a method of qualifying themselves to vote. They can secure from the precinct committeeman of their party or from the

county auditor a blank qualification form by mailing a request for the same any time after the tenth day before the date of registration. This must be properly filled out and witnessed by a notary public and then mailed to some friend, who must receive it before registration day. When this application is filed with the registration board two voters of the precinct must take cath that the registration is true. There will be only one day of registration this

fall, but in the event ten voters, three of them freeholders, in any precinct petition for the registration to be continued for a second day, or even for a third day, in that precinct, it shall be so continued.

A Boy's First Circus For at least one Richmond boy this was a red letter day in his young life. He attended his first

circus. It was the opening of Alladin's magic box for him and the wonders which confronted his dazzled eyes so hypnotized him that he succeeded in asking his father only one million questions. Boyhood is 'replete with wonderful experiences, but none quite equals that first time you ventured into the canvas-covered magic land, clutching tightly father's hand, to timidly feed peanuts

to the elephants, scream with laughter at the antics of the clowns and monkeys, gaze awestricken at the trapeze performers and try your level best to absorb with two eyes all the glories of the four rings.

Truly the first circus is the premier event of boyhood, and what father fails to share his son's rapturous joy on this never-to-be-forgotten occasion ! The circus will be gone tomorrow, but its influence will be of longer duration. There will be back yard and barn shows galore, the universal price of admission being a paltry ten pins. A few broken legs or arms of daring juvenile imitators of the bespangled "artists" who fascinated them may also mark its passing.

FAILURE TO PROVIDE FOR AGEMJILLEGAL County Council Finds Law

Requiring Appropriation for Agricultural Expert. Failure of the county council to approve the $1,500 appropriation placed

in the original budget before presentation, has brought the charge that the council acted in direct opposition to the decision of the supreme court of the state which rendered its verdict on the county agent law on July 1, declaring it constitutional as it stands on the state records. This has since been explained by the councilmen, who say they knew nothing of the supreme court decision at the time. Their .motive in not approving the $1,500 appropriation was not to prevent the hiring of a county

agent, as the intention of appropriating funds later if an agent was secured, was expressed at the, budget meeting. The supreme court ruled against the Vanderberg circuit court and other circuit courts of the state in declaring the phrase "shall appropriate annually the sum of $1,500 to be used in paying the salary and other expenses of said county agent" is constitutionally construed as It reads. Under the decision of the supreme court the county council of Wayne county would be compelled to make

the appropriation this year, although there is no county agent. Although the council has not met since the mistake has been, revealed, it is probable that the money will be appropriated unless farmers or others actively interested in agriculture mandate the body to carry out the law without the agent in sight.

Other Reasons Why You Should

Patronize the City Light Plant

What the City Light Plant Represents in Actual Cash

The cost of construction and bringing the plant up to its present state of efficiency, has involved an investment of $400,000.00. Its present value, less depreciation is $3 1 8,000.00.

Out of the Total Cost there is outstanding as a debt, bonds to the amount of $1 39,000.00, of which amount there is now in the sinking fund to pay those bonds, over $30,000.00.

What This Means to You What does this mean to you? It means that the plant, while reducing the cost of electricity to you, has paid off by its own earnings nearly $300,000.00 of its total cost.

Without the City Plant

this $300,000.00 would have been paid in dividends to a private corporation.

Since the City Plant has made possible cheap electric light and power, at the same time has added to the possession of the city nearly $300,000.00, is it not worthy of whole-hearted support from every loyal citizen of Richmond? Patronize
