brought out, that in short he had
been instrumental in getting bill

WITH OLD FRIENDS
IN CHESTERFIELD

In quaint old Chesterfield court
house, Congressman John Lamb yes
terday staged his final appeal to the
voters of the county to support him in
Thursdays primary. 1t was court
da and -the hundred or more VINO
gathered during the recess to hear the
congressman were representative of
the county's best citizenship. yet no
more unresponsiye audience, so far is
public demonstration went, ever ts-
rsned to a public speaker. Once or
perhaps twice, there was feeble APP
plause. The congressman evidently
knew his folks and was known by
them. He interrupted himself once or
twice to greet some newcomer an3
explained publicly that the phiegmatie
makeup OF the Chesterfieidian was
known to all men he felt at home and
knew he was amongst friends and
that II the lovely women of Chester
field could vote there would he 70
question as to the result.
Heart-to- Heart Talk.
Congressman Lamb made rather a
heart-to heart talk than an address
getting down 10 practical things and
hitting straight from the shoulder.
