Of gray hairs, Not only must they

Then there are always a number Of
persons who never, under ordinary cir

in the downtown traffic, but who brave
the terrors of the central shopping dis

getting their numerous bundles and

WHO CAN AND WHO
NOT VOTE IN PRIMARY

At the request of candidates
and voters, we state briefly who
can vote in the August Democra-
tic primary.
No Republican can vote and no
Democrat who did not support
the whole ticket last November
can vote. The same qualifications
as general election prevail other
wise; one must be resident OF
the state one year, county SIX
months, and precinct sixty days,
and be at last II years old at the
time of voting.
There are women who are well
known democrats, of democratic
families, who expect to affiliate
with the democratic party, but
who failed to vote last fall-some
for lack of means to get to the
polls, absence from home, sick
ness and other valid reasons. All
such known to be of democratic
belief. are entitled to be voters IN
the primary.
There is an affidavit which any
voter must sign stating that they
are. democrats and have the other
legal qualifications as stated here
tofore. Any officer or challenger
has right to compel any voter
to sign up before voting if they
doubt his qualification.
No mixed tickets voted last fall
entitle voter to participate in
either a democratic or republican
primary.
The law is very plain, short and
simple. If you voted any ticket
except straight democratic last
fall, you are ineligible to vote III
August. If you did not vote in
November for any good reason
and if you are a democrat, you
are entitled to vote.
Z No one can vote by mail iii the
August primary. Absent voters
vote by mail only in November
elections
There is a penalty for voting
when not entitled to; people not
entitled to- vote must not vote
III this primary. |

world and its social customs have
changed in the last quarter century.
The wedding OF the Duke and Con-

most exploited social events of the
early nineties, and really set the
pace for all future marriage pa

day wrote OF II as ''the greatsst
social event OF the century" and

the bride and Bridegroom accented
the interest in sIl that pertainsd to
the international slliance.
DUCHESS WAS

The American duchess for twenty
years held her place as one OF the
most popular women entitled TO wear
the strawberry leaf, the precious
symbol OF coveted rank. Her tact and
charming personality won her the
