Dear Father,
Each week I look forward with a

from homej keeping me posted on
Madison County.
For the past few weeks, I have no
ticed with a great deal of interest, the
ray politics -are "warming up" in
Madison, This is to be expected, e
specially in a county where politics
seem to play such an important part
in the hearts of so many Madison
county men (and women). I must ad
mit that it makes very interesting
reading that is, from a reader's
standpoint, but it also leaves some
what of a bitter taste in one's mouth.
By the bitter taste, I mean that some
of the political announcements (only
a few. fortunately) seem to wander
"off the beam". Some may consider
this good politics, while some may

am now in a position to read and
think about Madison politics as pure

understand me I am still interested
in the welfare of Madison county, and
for that reason, this letter is being
written.

try -to attain an office? Is the office
