Bar Association! election laws What is the difference between a primary election and a general election? A primary election is a means whereby members of a political party select by ballot candidates or nominees lor office; whereas a generrl election is a means w here by officers are elected and public ; olfiees are filled according to established rules of law In short, a primary election is merely a mode of choosing candidates of political parties, whereas a gen eral election is the final choice of , all the people qualified to vote. A general election is sometimes called the "regular election." Primary elections are held in North Carolina on the last Satur day in May. General elections are held on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November. During what hours must one cast his vote? In all primary and general elec tions in North Carolina, the polls open at 6 30 a m, and close at 6:30 p m.. Kastern Standard Time How- i ever, in voting precincts where vol- , ing machines are used, the board of elections of such county may permit the polls to close at 7:30 i p m. What are the residence require- j ments for voting? The voter must have resided in i North Carolina for one year and in the precinct, ward, or other elec tion district in which he offers to 'veto thirty days next preceding the election: Provided, that removal ' from one precinct, ward or other election district to another in this I St:>te shall not operate to deprive ' any person of the right to vote in the precinct, ward or other elec tion district from which such per son has removed until thirty days I alter such removal. Only those persons who have | previously registered are entitled to vote. How are presidential electors for the political parties selected in North Carolina'.' They are not voted upon in pri New Rules Of The Road PHILADELPHIA iAP> ? This sign was spotted on a truck pass ing through Philadelphia: "This truck stops for all cross roads, railroads, blondes and brunettes'. For redheads it will | back up 50 feet." n\ary elections. They are nominated 1 in a State convention of each poli- j tical party, unless otherwise pro vided by the plan of organization ot such political party. Their j names are filed with the Secretary j of State for North Carolina. The names of candidates for electors of President and Vice President do not even appear on the ballot in the November gen eral election. In place of their names there appears on the ballot the names of the candidates for President and Vice-President ol the political parties. How many presidential electors does North Carolina have? In national elections of the Pres ident and Vice-President of the i Cnlted States each State is allowed j an electoral vote equal to the num- I her of Senators and Represehta- I tives in Congress to which the State is entitled. This means that j ~ North Carolina has 14 electoral I votes. ! n MIDGETS' NORMAL BABY GROWING ? - ' ' ?"

And food store managers know it! That's why they do everything possible to keep prices low in their advertising. It's the same for almost any product you can think of. No store can sell it for ten dollars while a second store is advertising it for five. i ? Advertising enables you to sit back, relax and compare prices and merchandise. Shopping trips i can be planned beforehand to take advantage of the sales which merchants are advertising constantly. By providing a giant market place where stores of all kinds can compete for your business, the advertising in this newspaper helps keep prices low. 1 Preptr-ed H the Promotion Deportment nf The l)eu Maine* Rrgietrr and Tribune lor the AOVkRTlSlSU HURR AllUS OF AMIRS-'.4; UUmmlmlmMil the mountaineer
