November Sixth A Challenge To All Fair ^ Minded Taxpayers The Welfare of Your Immediate Future Lies In The Palm Of Vour Hand. Nazareih Couple Celebrates Golden Wedding Today There are more people in Penn- •yUanla today who think little or nothing of party labels than In any time in the history of the state. They do not care for names but they do care for principles and policies and action. It is, therefore, not only the duty but should be the earnest desire of every voter to cast his or her vote November 6th next. People today are deeply concern¬ ed with real questions, and very lit¬ tle with political bunk. They are concerned about taxation, and Franklyn D. Roosevelt, and social legislation, and evictions, and Sec¬ tion 7-A, and recovery, and roads and the price of milk, or farm pro¬ duce, and above all else. In security for themselves and their families, which is the greatest question of all. The people, are Interested mainly In things which make a real dif¬ ference to them, one way or the other. That is why the minority holds forth and sways conditions and welfare of your interests the •'minority way". ANY VOTER WHO THINKS HE IS FOOLING THE POLITICIAN BY NOT VOTING AT ALL IS BUT FOOLING NO ONE BUT HIM¬ SELF AND HELPS THE MINOR¬ ITY IN GAINING THEIR OWN ENDS. If but 70O in a ward con¬ taining close to 2000 voters vote, It lsn"t easy to control the seats of the offices in question. If but 44 to CO per cent of the populace are willing to share in the welfare of our government duties HOW CAN THE BEST MAN EVER HOPE TO BE ELECTED AND SERVE YOU— YOU—YOU AND YOU? The an¬ swer Is evident, HE CAN'T BE¬ CAUSE YOU DID NOT ELECT HIM, but he can and usually must serve the minority because they elected him to ofBce. It's as slmpb as A. B. C, but it Is "the toughest Job In the world to get the voter to see and act according." The old political war-crys and the threadbare appeals of the old poli¬ tical hacks still seem to "go down". I Brass lungs seem to interest them more than brass tacks and yet these same people want results they can feel In their own lives. The people are right In refusing to lis¬ ten to the old political ballyhoo. To them the time worn party hokiun has lost its charm. They demand something genuine Instead and they won't be happy until they get It; BUT WHY DONT THEY COME OUT AND VOTE THEIR OPIN¬ IONS? The question so often asked: How can the people sift out the ballyhoo and get at the real truth? How'can they see through the hokum? This can all be answered in one way, and that Is; each human has been given enough brain, has enough common sense, enough Judgment to not al¬ ways make the same mistake- merely by voting for the loudest noise. Your wish, or the wish of the majority can only be eflective by a majority vote, othcrwi.se it will re¬ main in the hands of the minority —It simply can't be othorwise.

November Sixth A
Challenge To All Fair ^ Minded Taxpayers
The Welfare of Your Immediate Future Lies In The Palm Of Vour Hand.
Nazareih Couple Celebrates
Golden Wedding Today
There are more people in Penn- •yUanla today who think little or nothing of party labels than In any time in the history of the state. They do not care for names but they do care for principles and policies and action. It is, therefore, not only the duty but should be the earnest desire of every voter to cast his or her vote November 6th next.
People today are deeply concern¬ ed with real questions, and very lit¬ tle with political bunk. They are concerned about taxation, and Franklyn D. Roosevelt, and social legislation, and evictions, and Sec¬ tion 7-A, and recovery, and roads and the price of milk, or farm pro¬ duce, and above all else. In security for themselves and their families, which is the greatest question of all. The people, are Interested mainly In things which make a real dif¬ ference to them, one way or the other. That is why the minority holds forth and sways conditions and welfare of your interests the •'minority way".
ANY VOTER WHO THINKS HE IS FOOLING THE POLITICIAN BY NOT VOTING AT ALL IS BUT FOOLING NO ONE BUT HIM¬ SELF AND HELPS THE MINOR¬ ITY IN GAINING THEIR OWN ENDS. If but 70O in a ward con¬ taining close to 2000 voters vote, It lsn"t easy to control the seats of the offices in question. If but 44 to CO per cent of the populace are willing to share in the welfare of our government duties HOW CAN THE BEST MAN EVER HOPE TO
BE ELECTED AND SERVE YOU— YOU—YOU AND YOU? The an¬ swer Is evident, HE CAN'T BE¬ CAUSE YOU DID NOT ELECT HIM, but he can and usually must serve the minority because they elected him to ofBce. It's as slmpb as A. B. C, but it Is "the toughest Job In the world to get the voter to see and act according."
The old political war-crys and the threadbare appeals of the old poli¬ tical hacks still seem to "go down". I Brass lungs seem to interest them more than brass tacks and yet these same people want results they can feel In their own lives. The people are right In refusing to lis¬ ten to the old political ballyhoo. To them the time worn party hokiun has lost its charm. They demand something genuine Instead and they won't be happy until they get It; BUT WHY DONT THEY COME OUT AND VOTE THEIR OPIN¬ IONS?
The question so often asked: How can the people sift out the ballyhoo and get at the real truth? How'can they see through the hokum? This can all be answered in one way, and that Is; each human has been given enough brain, has enough common sense, enough Judgment to not al¬ ways make the same mistake- merely by voting for the loudest noise.
Your wish, or the wish of the majority can only be eflective by a majority vote, othcrwi.se it will re¬ main in the hands of the minority —It simply can't be othorwise.
