BOY SCOUT TRAIL

Twenty-seven million people
stayed away from the polls in 1920.
Twenty-six million people--a ma
nority of all the voters-elected a
president in 1920.
Were you one of the twenty-seven
million who failed to perform their
full duty as citizens; or one of the
twenty-six million who properly full
filled their obligations?
Whatever the answer, register a
promise now that you will go to the
polls this year and swell the ranks
of the twenty-six million so they
will cast a vote truly representative
of the will of all the eligible voters
if the country
Vote as you please-but-vote.
The Fathers of our Constitution,
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1924-09-18

by Divine inspiration, gave you equal
! ity before all men; made you a par
ticipating stakeholder in the greatest
corporation in the world-the United
States of America-and gave you
the privilege of personal representa-
ton in the conduct of its affairs.
More than this: to insure your full
patriotic performance in behalf of
your felloW-citizens, they placed up
on you an obligation to serve, to take
an active part in governing this
great organization.
That obligation is the obligation to
vote -
Within the last decade there has
been a retrogression of civic con-
seriousness; a failure on the part of a
large number of otherwise good citi-
zens to perform their duty to their
country; to fulfill their obligation to
T Giveserious thought to the follow
ing figsites:
In 1896; 80 per cent of the eligi-
BILE voters of the country went to the
polls and voted.
In 1900, 70 per cent cast their
ballots.
In 1908, &c per cent.
In 1912, 62 per cent.
In 1920, less than SO per cent of
those eligible to vote, went to the
polls.
No more eloquent Indictment for
civic Indifference is needed than
these statistics. 1t is an indictment
against all of us, from the lowest to
the. highest skilled work
ers, executives, employers, profess
sional men and clergy.
The figures clearly demonstrate
that the great danger to the Nation
is not the attacks of radicals and
bolshevists from without, but the
dwindling of civic performance wiCn-
in. 1t is menace to our .institu-
tons and our government.
The situation is one that should
arouse every thinking person to the
necessity of performing his obliga-
ton.
You can help to remedy this sit
uation and it is your duty to do so.
Go to the polls yourself, talk to your
friends, associates and neighbors and
line up great army of voters on
November 4.
Vote as you please, but VOTE.

Fogg forgot that he had gained a

had lost it. Even so the close was

fifth there was a roaring like that Of
thunder outside, shouts, hurrahs, and
even curses kept in one prolonged
roll.
1.-THE players arose. At the fifty
seventh second the door of the salon
opened and the pendulum had not
beat the sixtieth second when Phineas
Fogg appeared, followed by an ex-

entrance into the club, and in his
calm voice he said: Gentlemen,

cussed whenever the increasing
speed of transportation was dis
cussed. Some said that verne's nov
Ell was fiction in name and fiction in
fact and that no one could travel
around the earth in anything like 80
days. And then the owner of the

incidentally pulling. off one of the

to send Nellie BY. around the world
to show that Phineas Fogg and his
tour could be duplicated in real life.
Nellie Bly's Trip.
Incidentally. Nellie BLY, is just. as
interesting character as the hero of
the book. Her real name was Eliza
beth Cochran and she was born in
Pennsylvania at Cochran Mills, Pa.
At a very early age she got job on
the Commercial Gazette, in PittsDurg,
and at a time when a woman in jour-
nalism was about as homogeneous az
would "a woman coal-passer today.
Her first big stunt was having herself
committed to the insane asylum on
Blackwell's Island, New York. She
proved that the guards were assault
ing the women and created quite a
stir. Following her arth-girdling
trip and consequent worldwide fame.
she married Robert L. Seaman, an
aged Brooklyn manufacturer, suc-
ceeding to his fortune.
