Msdge Needed Help in Breaking News to Mother Graham

Through the tense emotions which swirled round me at hearing of Eliza beth Harrison's sudden anti awful death-shock- guilt that I did not feel sorrow--an anticipation of hapipness for the Rraithwaites which pushed resolutely aside there was one insistent urge which found voice in a panic stricken ap- peal to my surgeon brothcr-in-law.

The Big Idea
EDITORIAL

A GUBERNAT0RIAL campaign, devoid, for the
"A most part, of outstanding issues, is drawing to
close in this state.
Voters have listened to Is candidates With few
exceptions the speeches, platforms and promises differ
in way from the stereotyped stuff of the earlyday
politicians.
In spite of the claims of the several candidates. The
Star is convinced that majority of the voters today
do not know who they going to vote for next
Tuesday.
The aarmists will say it is because we as people
more interested in the lighter things of life than
in good government
But that isn't the case. Our apathy, our lack of
interest is occasioned not because have lost inter
est in worthwhile endeavors; it is because so few
WORTHWHILE ideas are submitted.
Candidates, instead of hewing rgidly to line and
placing principle above SELF lodging issues, fear
fully facing the various groups who demand special
representation 80
The average candidate for governor this year has
tried to himself with so many popular banners
that not one of them stands out above the others.
Realizing the Importance of real executive in the
state during the next four years, thoughtful folks
have cast their eyes longngy the political horizon
in the hope of discovering at least the shadow of The
Big Idea
Tomorrow The Star will discuss the governorship
