The near approach of town meeting is
creating some interest as to who will fill
the various town offices. Already there is

would-lke. to-get-office candidate. 1t is
good to discuss the fitness of tcandi-
dates; it is also we'll to avoid the man
who wants an Office himself, generally
that person is good only to draw pay to
put ihto his own pocket. Select the best
man, no matter in what part of the town
he may live or if he hasn't asked that he
DE considered.
