All normal minds are at times sub ject to strange urges, vague anx ieties, inexplicable moods. The reason for this is plain when we remember that whatever race we belong to it goes back to a time when our ancestors were uncivilised people. We carry in the background of our minds bizzarre and odd superstitions, beliefs and fears, which have been passed on to us from the early days of the race. Then too we began life as help- leas Infants in a world we could not comprehend. In our babyhood we heard and saw and felt and feared many things which we have forgotten but which left their impress on the mind. It is from the part of the mind which Democrats WIN WITH C, B.

(1) Good physical health. Of •'his I need say little because the )rinciples of physical health are aught in our .schools and many articles on the subject are pub lished in our papers and maga- ilnes. It is true of course that ?ome people with physical infirm ities have been able to maintain a strong mind and do exceptional mental work. But in general it is true that it is easier to maintain a sound mind if the physical heelth is good. (2) Self-acceptance. Accept yourself! I find in consultations that a great many people are un happy and worried because of vague and strange thoughts and feelings which frighten them and make them think that they are mentally abnormal. Such people are helped a great deal when they learn tliat practically every body is subject to the same kind things and that' they are no The friends of Wilkes County their fellow Democrats here ip Wilkes to help correct the wrong of 1938. The State Board of Elections after a full and fair hearing and af ter counting the legal votes cast in the second primary of 1938 declared C. B. Deane the nominee and the records in the office of the Secretary of State so show. His pres ent opponent dragged the n$atter into the courts and would not abide by the deci- 5ion of the State Board. When it was declared that the cov’rts could not finally pass upon the matter in time for the November election, Deane agreed that it be ar bitrated so that our District mighit not be deprived of a Democratic member in Con gress The three man board j of arbitration decided | against Deane despite the ruling of the State Board of ^ Elections. He truly sacrific ed his own clear rights for the benefit of the Demo cratic Party. This is why he is a candidate in the June 22 primary, and we have the confidence that our fellow Democrats in Wilkes will welcome an opportunity to correct the wrong that was done him. LET IT BE REMEMBER ED BY THOSE WHO OP POSED DEANE AND WHO DO NOT WANT A SEC OND PRIMARY THAT MR. DEANE’S OPPONENT, MR. BURGIN, WAS THE LOW MAN IN THE FIRST PRI MARY OF 1938 WHEN HE DEMANDED A SECOND PRIMARY. THE SHOE IS NOW ON THE OTHER FOOT AND THE TIME OF C. B. DEANE’S VIC TORY IS NEAR AT HAND! Endorse the struggle made by Deane for Honest Elections in North Carolina by your vote for him on June 22. ' Amazing Offer!!
