GOVERNOR AL SMLT I'll
 AMI THT CGTTH

If Governor SmiGh of New York is nominated as candidate for the presidency on the Democratic ticket in 1928 what will be his prospects of carrying the solid south? That is the question being asked by innumerab!e political analysts now that the governor again showed the country what Q strong candidate he is whenever he runs for something.
 He is being bruited as the logical presidential candidates. If he is nominated, what will happen?
 Conditions in the south do not favor a wet candidate, and they do not favor Governor Smith on reli- gtous grounds, trifiing as these may seem to most Of us.
 The south has been voting solidly ever since the Civil War, and by large majorities for each successive Democratic candidate. If nominated, Smith could afford to lose some Democratic votes In the south and still carry that section of the ccun- try.
 Only in the more doubtful south ern states, those on the borderine, would there be doubt. These are Kentucky, Tennessee, and perhaps a few others in the southwest.
 On the other hand. Smith un- questionably would carry New York --a large feat in itself. The victory of Walsh over Butler in Massaohu- setts would indicate he might also carry Massachusetts.
 If Smith carried Massachusetts as well as New York, and carried the southern states and few others like New Jersey and Maryland, the Republican candidate would have something to worry about.
 Governor Smith is our idea of the Democratic party's best bet in the coming presidential election.

LUCKY DAYS!

He had been very kind to me. and our friendship was ripening into something deeper.
 In the warm days of Indian sum- mer he asked me to go with him for a stroll in the country. I saw no reason to refuse.
 We were crossing a field when an enormous and ferocious dog charged US, I scrambled hastily over the fence and fell plump into a muddy ditch When I got the mud out of my eyes saw my friend frantical- ly trying to reach something just inside the fence. One glance at it and another al his head was enough. The object he was trying to grasp vas his wig!
 Gee gracious.
 THAT was my lucky day.
