Failed not the kind heart, nor the
helpful deed
In its clustered homes, with the
fringe Of farms
Friendliness o'ernowed for a neigh
bor's need
They tarried not long, who too hastily
sought.
To win. for themselves, either
grandeur or gold
But nome, church and school in faith
tulness wrought
That character might in all beauty
unfold
To whatever spot their virtues be
lent,
The old home is claiming its chill
dren. just now,
1t has stamped them wherever their
pathways be bent,
And shares in the laurels that cir
Gle each brow.
So, we meet in good Will, with hearts
full of love,
Even distant ones glad, in our
gladness TO share,
And hoping our friendships reblos-
som above,
To bless us again in the home-com-
ing there.
Andalusia, Aug. 19-Editor The

thank the management Of The Argus

coming The preceding articles have
been written by The Argus special
representative, f +. Buffum a son
OF AlmOn A. Buffum, whom most of
the past and present Andalusians re-
member. He has been present at all
our meetings and entered into the
spirit 10 the occasion, and we feel that
We cannot express our appreciation in
words
The committee worked hard to 10
cate all the old residents. and did all
in its power to get them enthused to
the point Of coming. and those who
were there can form an idea as to the
success Of their efforts. The pleasure
Of locating them and getting into COM
muniCaticu with them, and autiCipat-
ing the pleasure Of the meeting would
have fully repaid us even had we not
been permitted to be present at the
real gathering I'm addition to those
who were present and registered,
there are many whom we located and
who were not able 10 be with us. We
received many letters from those who
were enthusiastic and whe assured us
that they would be with us, but who
later on were compelled to inform us
that they could not come. Others sent
their regrets and assured rs Of their
desire to be with us, and that they
would be with US in spirit, but that
owing to age or infirmities or distance
or other causes they would not be

COST OF PRIMARY
WILL Be GREATER
Popular Selection Of Nominees Next
Month VIII Mean larger Expense
10 County Than Ever Before.
HIGH COST OF PAPER Is CAUSE
Added Precincts Since Two Years Ago
viii Also Result in Larger Elec-
ton Bill Beard Must Pay.

The primary election in Rock Is
land county on Sept 10 will cost more
this year than ever before. This is
due to the high cost of print paper
and dyes.
When County Clerk Hubbard re-
turns from Quincy, where he is at
tending the state meeting of super
visors and county and probate clerks,
among the first matters he Will at
tend TO is making arrangements for
the printing OF the primary ballots.
Deputy Clerk K. c. Clarke today de-
clared that it is certain that the So
ciaIist party will be disappointed this
year, in that it will be unable to have
the red ballot The socialist party
usually requests a red ballot. Lack
OF red dyes will make 1t impossible
for the county authorities to grant this
request.
The progressive party. although it
has no county ticket in the field nor a
state slate, will have ballots. They
will be blank. The law requires that
ballots be provided for all parties
which cast per cent or more Of the
total vote at the last preceding cleo
ton.
County Clerk Hubbard will have to
check up on the vote at the last cleo
JlO0 10 determine now many BdliOIS 10
provide. There will be much waste, as
the requirement is to provide a certain
per cent more than the vote at the last
election in order to assure sufficient
ballots should there be a marked
change in the number Of votes cast by
any one of the parties.
Precincts Increased.
Again, the cost Of primary election
this year will be larger by reason Of
the increase in number Of precinct
polling places made since the primary
two years ago. Additional judges and
clerks will be required.
