 Dear Uncle Jed Jerry and Lad had always been friends ever since Lad was a rollicking, furry puppy. And now he was a big gold and white collie, with a white, goId-tip plume of a tail. Jerry was lo, and 3 small boy of his age. On ac- count of his health he had never been ai- lowed to participate in other boys snorts. One warm afternoon when Jerry and Lad were taking their usual walk through the woods they passed a swim ming pond. The cool quiet water iooked 20 inviting that Jerry could not resist the temptation of wading in the water. and then without a moments warning the play turned to reality, for the treschsr- ous stones made him slip and Jerry fell into the dark water, taking a gulp of if into his lungs. Simultaneously gold and white streak flashed from the bant and In five seconds had the boy by tbs coat. Soon Jerry opened his eyes ant between the questions of his anxfou, l parents told the whole story. Then Jerr, said T am never going bathing again ELIZABETH H. ROGERS.

How Not to Take Cold.

Some persons are subject to fire.
quent colds. while others seldom. il
ever, have cold. You will find
that the latter take good care of
themselves. They take shower or
cold sponge bath every day in a
warm room, avoid over heated
rooms, sleep with a window open or
partly open, avoid excuses, over
eating, becoming over heated and
then chilled and getting wet feet.
Then. when they feel the first indi-
cation Of a cold. they take Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy without delay
and 1t is soon over.

Some of our stauneh party
voters, both Republican and Demo
cratic, are assuring everyone that
France and Bruce, the opposing
Senatorial candidates are not wei
in their sentiments.
If such is the case can you tell
why the Association Against the
Prohibition Amendment has come
out in a published statement en-
dorsing Senator Jos. I. France, Re-
publican. and VIM. Cabell Bruce
Democrat, opposing aspirants for
election to the u. s. Senate, as
satisfactory to their Association,
and labelling them 100 per cent wet.
Chas. ]. Butler, Republican nom
inee for House of Representatives,
is also endorsed by this anti-prohibi-
ton. organization as being 100 per
cent wet.
Don't let anyone fool you with the
bunk that these candidates mention
ed are dry in sentiment, or will
vote to uphold the Volstead Act, as
they will not.
The Democratic nominee for
House of Representatives is the
only candidate on the ticket from
whom the temperance voter can ex-
pect anything in the upholding of
the Prohibition Act.

The last session of the General
Assembly passed laws proposing five
amendments to the Constitution OF
the State. They are up for the ap-
proval or rejection of the voters
November z. Three at least of the
proposed amendments are of capital
Importance; the two dealing with
greater representation in the Legis.
lature for Baltimore city and the
one providing for quadrennial State
elections.
Should the two giving Baltimore
city greater representation be pass
ed, it will mean that the city will
dictate all future legislation in the
State. These two Amendments
should be killed. Vote against
them.
The Amendment for fewer cleo
tions is the great economy measure
of the present State administration
According to Democratic calculation
the amendment If adopted will save
the people of the State something
like $s5O.000 year.
Vote for it.

SUMMARY OF THE AMEND
MENTS.


The voter on November Will
find on his ballot, in addition to the
names of candidates for U. s. Sem
ate and House of Representatives,
five amendments and the proposed
school bond issue.
Briefly the Amendments are as
follows:
L. To increase Baltimore City's
Legislative districts from four to six.
2. To give the City s State SEN
ators and SO members of the House
Of Delegates instead Of the 4 Sena-
tors and "a Delegates to which she
is now entitled.
8. Permitting the salary of the
State Comptroller to be Increased
and fixing his term Of office and that
Of the State Treasurer at four in
stead of two years, as at present
4. Fewer Elections, providing
that all State and County elective
officers, except Judges be chosen for
terms of four years, beginning with
the election to be held in 1926.
Such officers elected next year shall
hold for three years, their success
sors to be chosen in 1925. The
Legislature shall meet in regular
session in 1924 and again in 1927,
and every two years thereafter.
5. In effect, making women
equally eligible with men to public
offices, except where men are made
SO specifically, under the wording OF
the Constitution or the laws of the
State.
Proposed Bond Issue provides for
issue of bonds to amount of $780,.
900, to be devoted to improvement
Of school buildings in Cecil county.
The snake in the first two amend
ments is scheme of Baltimore city
politicians to effectually control and
dictate politics in the State. ID
adopted the counties will have to
ask Baltimore city, virtually, for
any sort of legislation desired at
Annapolis.
Make : sure to kill these two
amendments by voting against them.
The proposal in the third amend
ment to increase the salary of the
State Comptroller will probably find
as little favor with the voter at
large as the scheme to give Balti-
more political control of the State.
The fourth amendment, provid-
ing for fewer elections, would, it is
estimated, save the State something
like $350,000 a year.
The fifth amendment by its terms
is not to apply to offices from which
women are barred specifically by the
language creating said offices.
The school bond issue means
that the much needed enlargement
and Improvement of our schools will
be started next year, If the measure
carries, Whereas, if it does not
carry this work, which eventually
must be done, will be delayed for
years.

matoes this year went into cans for
use in various manufactured pro-
ducts such as catsup, pork and
beans and the like, according to es-
Inmates made by the United States

crop for manufacture is estimated
at 215,6S4 acres, compared. with the
final estimate of 1898 acres in
1921. Estimated yield is 4.6 tons

last year. Reports to the depart
ment indicate that 9,355,000 cases
of No. 8 cans were packed this
year. compared with 5,150.0O0 cases
in 1921.

Tuesday, Nov. z, is election day
and it is the duty of every registered
voter to go to the polls and cast his
ballot. Too many are prone tc
treat the matter with such indiffer-
ence as not to take the little time
required to go to the polls. This
indifference on the part of a large
number of voters, the 'stay at
homes" makes it easy for the poll
ticians to put over almost any one
they succeed in getting on the tick
ct, whether qualified or not.
Every voter owes it to himself
his State, to get out and vote his
sentiments, not be content with
letting the "other fellow" do it.
Go to the polls and cast your ballot!
