Neither the man nor the woman could read write and they were about to entrust their hard earned savings to the rare of a bank for the flmt time hi their Uvea. For 30 year*, week by weak and month by month they had watch ed their meager savings slowly grow.

The entire trans action required nearly two hours. Once the old man stopped the bank employee as he was counting dollars. "Here, here" he said, "not so fast." I didn't make it that fast. I got to see that its all there. His wife smil ed faintly. .She watched the counting, fascinated. A little sack containing 1.800 pen nies was dumped out of on* of the meal sacks. "Ill take year count on that just to save time," said the bank employe, pleasantly. "No-sir-ee." said the old man. "Dont you do that. I don't take you rn. Better count 'em. See if they're all there."

"Well come back and put in some more before long," said the old man. His wife nodded assent. The transaction over, the three left the bank well pleased.

W. M. JUtthewa. Taws CM. . k i fur fearge K. Snow for Remfcr In The Democratic Primary To Be Held On The of July, 1924 By every test that can be made to determine the measure of a man George Snow qualifies for the office. You ahould vote for him because: • He received his academic and a part of his legal education at a Christian College. His beat assets are a high Christian character and an absolutely clean like. A publie-apirited citizen, he has given of his time and money to every worthy public enterprise of this community—religious, education al, charitable and patriotic. He has a trained mind and recognized ability. He stands for strict law enforcement, with fear nor favor to no man, and does not ask the support of any person who does not favor strict en forcement He is the only ex-soldier who has asked for elective office in Mount Airy township. He volunteered in 1917 for service in the United Statas Army and served in Prance. George Snow returned to us, his own home folks, a commissioned officer with a perfect service record. He had offered his all for his country, for the home folks, for the profiteers, for all thoae who were safe on this side of the water. In 1917 we asked the Boys to keep the faith. We said that those who met the test then would be the leaders afterward. George Snow kept the faith then, he has kept the faith in peace no less than in war. We should keep faith with him. The war may b« over now for some of us but for George Snow the war will never be over in this life, for his loss in that war is constantly with him. He is not asking election on his war record—he has. in abundance, all other necessary qualifications for the office—but his record when the nation called foreshadowed a useful life given to unselfish service in time of peace, and it is one of the reasons why he is entitled to your support in this primary. He is a loyal Democrat who has never scratched a ticket. He is a licensed attorney-at-law. He is a christian gentleman by precept and example. He will administer the affairs of this Court of Justice intelligently, tactfully, and fearlessly. GIVE HIM YOUR VOTE. DOfTT LET THE POLL WORKERS VOTE FOR YOU. USE YOUR OWN VOTE AS YOU WILL.
