Tuesday, May 29, 1928 Women Would Vote Wisely In order fii enable women who this year to do their balloting more intelligently than ever before, thous ands of women's clubs and study groups are planning to spend the next few months in definite courses of study on the problems of election choices and candi dates. These groups of women have found a non partisan service ready to' hand in the good citizen ship bureau of the Woman's Home Companion, which has published a series of six pamphlets, describing clearly and graphically the process by which a Presi dent is elected. These pamphlets, prepared for use as a textbook for women's study groups, are the basis for many a course of studies which will prepare yvomen for election day in a manner which will make their voting intelligent and patriotic.* No service which a civic organisation can do for its members is more important than this one f declares the head of the Federated Women's clubs. And rep resentatives of both politick parties, who have ex amined the outlined courses of study, have emphasized that the woman s vote will undoubtedly be a highly important factor in the presidential results this year. The fact remains that political education of women may be highly effective in reniedying the evils of "the IN MEMORIAM lu memory of nVy beloved sister, Mary Elizabeth IwtiHljson, who de parted this life May 29tR', 1924, aged 40 years... .. .

In the entire United States, this absentee evil is invariably large enough to change the result of an election. In 1920, and again in 1924, only half the eligible voters actually cast ballots. William H. Hill, former Congressman from New York State, estimates that the number of eligible voters in 1924 was 58,000,000, whereas the number who actually voted was only 29,000,000. Women who desire to start courses of study in presidential politics may arrange to obtain copies of the textbooks by writing direct to the good citiaenship bureau, room 100, 250 Park Avenue, New York. Charging Carelessness To Others W. E. Pool, an employee of the Norfolk-Southern freight department, at Raleigh, is bringing suit for $50,000 against the railroad for alleged damage to one of his- feet, when another employee of the road itepped on his foot some time ago. Pool claims that the railroad com|>any was negligent for not prevent ing one .employee from stepping on the foot of another while working in the station together. „ " This suit is interesting for several reasons. The amount asked for looks heavy for just stepping on one foot. Just why he did not move his foot to keep the other fellow from stepping on it puzzles us, be cause holding so important a member of the body as a foot and letting another man step on it fifty thous and dollars' worth is something we do not under- stand. Too many people try to make others pay for their own carelessness these days. _ Why will men multiply their differences in impor tant matters has long been a mystery. Yet they will. It is so on questions of vital importance, and especi ally is this true in political and religious issues. It is a sad thing to see two neighbors, both proclaiming the one God and l ather and expressing their love and belief in Him, and yet they will quarrel about the way to approach Him; one claiming one road, while the other proclaims another way, and they quarrel until the gates are shut on them. Servants with different talents will naturally have different viewpoints on certain great questions. Then why should we be so weak that we are willing to de stroy ourselves rather than meet our neighbors and friends on one common level. We are too prone to have our own way or die. Many times people seem to prefer their own way to death, rather than the other fellow's way to life. I ndue and unfair persistence destroys the happi ness of homes, the usefulness for political parties and the spirituality in religion. in the payment of haul note, and tilt! term* thereof and stipulations therein not having been complied with, tin undersigned will, on Saturday, the loth day of June, 1928, in front of the courthouse door of Martin County at Williamson, North Carolina, offer for nalc, at public auction, to the highest bidder, for cash, one Ford coupe, mo tor number 8758408, being the same Ford car sold to P.
