With approach of election day speculation is rife as to its possibili- ties. The Democrats, in putting it's
 ticket before the voters this year are satisfied with it's entire makeup. Especially is qualification felt by the ticket. In presenting to town voters both MT. London and Mrs. Dwyer the Democrats feel as if their caucus has given townsfolks worthy ticket and one which should meet with support by all. AS representatives our younger element as well as wor- thy followers of the more elderly voters, both of these young men will come before the voters for their franchise on election day as worthy Of support and entirely capable of transacting town business
 Surprise Is continually expressed why such a fine building and such a centrally located business place Bets place. As a business center
 it does seem as if this spot is well
 placed and its continual vacant con dition is surprising.
 With the rapid approaih of cold weather more or less wonderment is expressed as to possibilities for bowl ing alleys in Red Mems hall. It does seem as if it would be the part of wisdom for local Red Men to install bowling alleys and a basketball court Many members of local Red Men in- l tend to agitate for this improvement | and what seems a necessary addition to their present well conditioned building,

Without a word to either l slipped

"Helga-are you ill.," There was

The Call j..

Rosy dawn and golden ewes,
Whir of quail and call of dove;
Lure of wind in rustling leaves;
Thrill of life; below, above,
All around - east, west or north
Come the summons: Hurry
fouth!"
Grey road stretching to the skies;
Mountains beck'ning silently;
Autumn mists that drift and RISE
Shifting, drifting constantly.
Call of bird that southwark wings,
Where the breeze of summer sings
4 squirrel scampers - busy chapi
Nuts are falling, pumpkins CLEAN;
Apples mellow, pine cones snap,
Trout race free in mountain stream.
Autumn leaves CLEAN red and gold,
Heralds gay of winter old.
All these call, insistent, true,
Through the din of trade and mart;
Call of Time, so old - yet new
known to every huntsman's heart.
Heed the call! Take gun and rod!
Follow trails-the red man trod.
