BE INTERESTED iNLOCAL AFFAIRS

THERE are many questions affecting
the economic and general welfare of
Cecil county, that could be protitably
discussed in the public press by our citi-
gems and the Cecil Wing now invites
articles for its ''PeOpIe's Column" from
those of our people who desire to present
their views upon such topics. Greater
Cecil should be the keynote i'll the ad-
yocacy Of better roads, efficient and eco
nOnic.ll government, proper expenditures
in all departments of government, etc.
There are many who can thus render
great service in the advancement of this
favored section, SO let them now speak
out. Eliminate politics as a controlling
factor in our local government and let
the will OF the people prevail.
