believe it is the duty Of the candidate
for this office TO stale clearly to tha

and not publish a lengthy platform
intended Tor no other purpose than
that OF vote getting am aware Of
the fact that candidates FOR office
sometimes become over zealous and
make promises to the people which
they or no other man could carry our.
II seems to me at the present sine the
people u Grady county are not 50
easily misled by much promising, but
had rather know that they had a man
as their representative who was doing
all in his power to deliver the goods
Therefore, ! make no promise except
that II ] am elected to this office. I

LADY OF THE LABEL
BY DOROTHY BLAcKMoRE.

The fact that Barker began life as
a corner store groceryman did not
detract from his lovableness. II was
that charming personality Of his that
made his business SO great q success
In remarkably short time he climbed
from the retail to the Wholesale dis
trict and later his clever business acu-
men placed him among the noted I'M
porteys Of foreign delicacies.
During his only trip to the continent
he had discovered little community
Of people tucked, away III sunny Italy
The grapes they grew We're Marvellous
and without loss OF time Barker had
contracted for the entire output in the
form Of raisins. He put new brand
on the market, pushed ard advertised
it with yigor the result of which
made the little band of.Morkers under
The ITALIAN skies open their eyes, In
cidentally it filled their purses with
the golden Ira.
Barker noted, with commendatlon.
to the packers, that in proportion to
his increased demand for raisins, the
packages improved in daintiness and
artistically designed labels.
The first shipment that came with
new label brought an excitement
OF admiration from Barker. There
was most bewitehing face smiling
at him from a medallionshapee
wreath Of flowers. He realized that
the Italian workers had anticipated
his desire and that the label was more
attractive than any he himself could
have designed.
1t was unique, the rapidity With
which Barker fell victim TO the smil
ing face that greeted him from each
! package OF raisins that he imported
I The very first consignment had
f, prompted him to remove one photo
lithograph and put it in an antique
gold frame that adorned his desk.
The correspondence from his raisir
shippers improved with the label The
old, long-hand scrawls were replaced
BY concise, businesslike communica
! tlons neatly typed on an up-to-dats
machine. Barkers interest was Sc
great in this last step toward progress
that he was compelled to write per
sonal letter commanding the Italian
workers on their improved Office stat
and methods. Also he made delicat'
inquiry as to the personality of th'
Lady of the Label.
He waited eagerly for reply to hi
letter Nor was he in any way disap
pointed, for return mail brought hin
an answer.
