F. G. TAYLOR FOR COMMISSIONER As a prequisite for any man seeking public office he should have among other things at least four qualifica tion!^ 1st He should not seek public of fice for personal interest 2. He should represent no petty faction. V construe live ana not awirucuv?. 4. He should be either ? Democrat or a Reoublican F. G. Taylor has served the public for three years as County Commis sioner, therefore, is net comnig be fore the voters of our County as a stranger and untried. He is a man who does his own thinking and is not influenced in his services to the public Mr Taylor is^not an eartravagant man in either public or private affairs and has been during his services as Commissioner the "watch dog" of the county funds, and see that these funds are spent in the moBt judicious manner possible, consistent with pro gress and good business. He is not a tax dodger and has never resorted to any secret methods to evade paying his just proportion of taxes. He has never been accused of possessing a taint of Rupublicanism. He is a nat ural born Democrat. Go to the Court House at Winton and ask John Northcott to show you the minutes of the meetings of the Commissioners, and there you will find F. G. Taylor's name recorded against every measure which tends to the extravagant use of the public's money. He was one who defeated the dipping vat appropriation, thereby saving the taxpayers several thousand dollars. But why does Mr. Taylor have op position? The answer is quite ob vious to every one in this Township. There is a certain element of real es tate owners who had their property rates increased under the Revaluation Act in 1920, who have not succeeded in getting a nominal reduction in these rates. He has been able to es cape taxes on his money in Virginia banks and elsewhere, but can't hide his real estate. What is the solution? Vote Frank Taylor out and vote Doc tor Jesse Harrell Mitchell in. IVs simple enough. Let's see. It's an undeniable fact that the Doctor has been Chairman of the Board of Edu cation for several yean. This Board spend over 60 per cent, of the people's tax money. Why has not the Doctor given us a fair sample of some reduc tion in his branch of the county gov ernment by cutting some salaries and extravagant expenditures of the county's money by his Board? The Board of County Commission ers spend only 15 per cent of the tax money. The Doctor says openly that Mr. Northcotfs salary ought not to be cut, and Sheriff Scull does not get enough money. How is he to reduce the taxes? Surely he does not pro pose to abolish the County Home? Vote for F. G. Talor and re-elect him. He is working hard to get taxes lower and is just as anxious to see them low as any citisen in the county, but he is not willing to reduce them to such extent as to cripple thetuse fulness of the necessary institutions of the County. He will serve your interest best and not make much noise about it. Vote for F. G. TAYLOR in the primary Saturday. T? ?_*_?_ ivoapeciiuuy. J. N. VANN. Maq 29, 1922. Adv. 0 PHILATHEA SOCIAL Oil Friday night, May 26th, the home of Misses Mary and Audrey Newsome, beautifully decorated, was the scene of a very interesting and thoroughly enjoyable Philathea social, given by the single members of the class in honor of the married mem bers. Various contests were engaged in, the winner being Miss Helen As kew. Refreshments, consisting of ice cream and wafers were served from an attractively decorated booth. Rev. Isenhower and several deacons of the Baptist Church were guests of honor at the time of the refreshment courses. Promptly at 10:60 the guests, all members of Philathea Class, departed, voting the Misses Newsome and the single section of the class as most charming hostess. 0 Chicago la planning to establish a night marriage license bureau.

The distillery which made the shipment had gone out of busi ness. a fact that apparently was not discovered by the government agents until the gin had arrived here. A spe cial permit had to be obtained from Washington before It ceuld be stored In a local warehouse, pending Its withdrawal for medicinal purposes an permits from the director's office.
