The People
Have Spoken

From the three candidates for
President of the United States, one
has been chosen to lead our people
for the next four years.
Now then-regardless of party
utilization whether we were
pleased or disappointed with the
result-let US get together and work
for that greater prosperity we are
entitled to.
Nature has never been so boun-
tiful a. this season. The farmer has
gathered the greatest crops in many
years-the factories are running
full time and the retail business is
good.
Let US take off our campaign
buttons and forget the election
going back to our daily tasks with
unbounded faith in the American
people.
