Must Be Twenty-One.

Unless you are twenty-one years old
you can not legally participate in the
primary Of Saturday. In olden times
those males who would reach their ma
jority by or before the regular Novem.
Der election were privileged to vote in
the primary previous but not so under
the new election law. You must be
twenty-one on or before August 2 to
vote Saturday. And too you must vote
with the party that you have heretofore
affiliated with. In other words, voter
who cast his ballot for the Republican
or Progressive party in November last
and has heretofore done so can not vote
the Democratic ticket under the prom
Use TO support the nominee. II he has
decided to change his party utilization
he must wait until the November cleo
tion TO do SO.

That he has made many friends by his
good conduct, there can be no doubt,
and at the wind-up Of the campaign
which will come Saturday, whether he
is the victor or of the vanquished. he
will have the satisfaction OF knowing
that he is much closer to the people
of the county than when he announced
for the Office he seeks and that he has
made a manly race, giving to the gentle
men who oppose him the very best that
is in him.

NEAR Ashland, Lydia Bailey. aged six,
was shot TO death by her sister, only
seven years older, with a gun which
she did not know was loaded. But the
question arises, what right has a thir-
teen-year-old child TO monkey with gun
loaded or unloaded? The trouble is, poo
pie are too careless about leaving weap-
ons around and in many cases have more
of their means invested in guns than
they should have. In some portions Of
the mountains we are informed that
there are men whose investments in
shooting irons" far exceed that Of their
household goods and kitchen furniture.
And we might add that right here in
this glorious bluegrass section-the gar
den spot of the world-there are many
people whose homes much more resem-
bic an arsenal than they do the abiding
place of peacesblo, good citizens.

Fruit is being brought to her by
women whose tender hearts hold
smoldering love for all humanity that
bursts into flame at the first appeal
Postal picture cards have been sent
to her in numbers and children have
written letters of sympathy and af-
lection to her.
Perhaps, as the nurse said, who ex-
pressed her wonder that so many
people were so interested in Lilly just
now" the little girl cannot read, but
she can look at the pictures and she
does know that somehow, in the time
when she was racking her little brain
for the reason why nobody cared it
just seemed as if everybody cared.
Are you happy" asked her.
"Oh, so many ladies have brought
me things" she said, and the words
tumbled over each other "They are
Santa Claus wives. And I'm going
to get pair of new Shoes"
Her eyes shone with a soft light of
happiness.
"Can you come and play with me?"
she asked, and her warm little hand
closed over mine.

her. because the rules of the County

invoked too frequently in recent
years to punish offenders rather than
prevent offense," was statement of

fore National Civic Federation meet
ing. Its application has been de-
structive rather than conservative
and constructive"
Hammond said he believed certain

poration law, having as one Of its
functions the power to determine the
amount of capitalization Of indus

LILLY BERKOWITZ HAS MADE A DISCOVERY
SANTA CLAUS HAS A LOT OF WIVES

, a LII Or WIVES
''I'n come again some day when
you aren't playing" / told her, and
watched her go back into the kinder
garten room.
Down on the floor below l met the
nurse again.
Lilly Berknowitz isn't the only
lonely child here" she said. There
are many others who do not get fruit
or visits, and it seems to me it should
be distributed"
laughed. Lilly happens to be the
one little girl the women who come
here to help know of, and know that
they would be just as good and just
as kind to every other lonely little
girl here, if they knew of the others,
so it doesn't seem a cause for worri-
ment."
And then l went away, and in go
ing out of the entrance of the chill
dren's ward, met woman coming
in, her arms full of fruit.
She looked at me significantly. We
were strangers just passing, but she
sensed why had been there and l
knew why she was going, and we
gave each other a smile of under
standing and passed.
What good world it is, after all
