INFORMATION TO VOTERS

The following instructions are given for the
information and guidance of voters. A voter
upon entering the polling place and giving his
name and residence will receive ballot from the
ballot clerk, which must have endorsed thereon
the names or initials of both ballot clerks and no
other ballot can be used. Upon receiving his
ballot the voter must retire alone to booth or
compartment and prepare the same for voting.
ballot clerk may inform the voter as to the
proper manner of marking the ballot, but he
must not advise or indicate in any manner whom
to vote for. The voter must make (A) mark
in the square after the name Of each person
ne desires to vote for. If he wishes to vote for
a person for a certain office whose name
is not on the ballot he must write the
name in the blank space under the printed
name of the candidate for the Office. The
ballot should not be marked in any other
manner. If the ballot is spoiled it must be re-
turned to the ballot clerk who must issue
another in its stead but not more than three
to any one voter Five minutes time is allowed
in booth to mark ballot. Unofficial ballots or

Forgot What He Needed

From the Republican, Mt. Giliad,
Ohio: The editor had an interesting
experience some time ago, when a
young gentleman came to this office
and asked for a copy of the Morrow
County Republican. He scrutinized it
carefully when copy was handed
him, and then said: "Now l know!"
What is it you are looking for" we
inquired. my wife sent me after a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and I forgot the name. I went
to several stores and the clerks named
over everything in the line on the shelf
except "Chamberlain's I'll try again
and I'll never go home without Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy" The Repub-
lican would suggest to the proprietors
of stores, that they post their clerks,
and never let them substitute. Gus
toners lose faith in stores where sub
shutting is permitted, to say nothing
of the injustice to makers of goods and
the disappointment of customers.
Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1919-03-18

memorandum to assist the voter in marking his
ballot can be taken into the booth and may be
used to copy from. A ballot must not be shown
so that any person can see how it has been
marked by the voter. After it is marked it
should be folded that the inside cannot be
seen but so that the printed endorsement and
signatures of the ballot clerks on the outside
may be seen. The voter then should pass out
of the booth or compartment, give his name to
the Inspector in charge of the ballot box, hand
him his ballot to be placed in the box and pass
out OF the voting place. A voter who declares to
the presiding officers that he is unable to read or
that by reason Of physical disability he is unable
to mark his ballot can have the assistance of
one or two election officers in marking the same,
to be chosen by the voter, and if he declares
that he is totally blind he may be assisted by
any person chosen by him among the legal voters
of the county. The presiding officer may admin
lister an oath in his discretion as to such persons
disability.

ballots

MEDICAL LABORATORY

For some time past Wausau, as well
as many other cities throughout the
state. have been urged to establish a
medical laboratory. This has finally
been accomplished and room opened
in the city hall, whereby diseases can
be analysed at home. Heretofore, it
has been necessary to forward sputem,
water, etc., to Madison, where the state
laboratory performed the necessary
work.
Preparations are being made by the
city health department to obtain a
health officer. He will do laboratory
! work with the assistance of local
physicians and will direct the health
department of the city. This will
mean that the city will have an ex-
pert at work at all times to safeguard
the health of it's citizens. Every eff
fort will be made to maintain the ex-
cellent health standard long since
adopted by Wausau. With these new
facilities delays need no longer be ex-
perienced. Under a recent legislature
provision the state will pay half
the salary to be paid the physician.
DR.. Partridge of Milwaukee, visited
1.-THE city Friday and is under consider
alton as a possible health officer.
The city hall is being cleaned and
renovated. The ceiling of the hall is
much more presentable than week
ago when it was so dark one would
thing that its intended color was dark
grey. The building will be given
a thorough spring scrubbing.
