, REPUBLICAN ENTHUSIASM
, This is a year of great enthusiasm
for the Republican candidates. Tht
party never had a finer or better
qualified candidate than Herbert
Hoover.
This man who has accomplished
such amazing and marvellous re-
suits for the benefit of humanity in
our country and elsewhere, is one
of the worlds greatest men, and
he will be successful in any problem
which he may tackle. He has saved
many millions of people from star
vation, he has lifted up those dis
couraged and broken by the war,
and helped to make them prosper
GUS again.
We all know the amazingly sue
cessful results he has accomplished
since he became our secretary of
commerce. The business reforms
which he initiated have been the
means of saving an enormous
amount of waste in industrial opera
tions, and thus making economies
that help every American home. In
his superb work for flood relief, he
again went to the aid of the needy
and starving and the friendless,
and he relieved an enormous
amount of misery. This man can
solve our problems.
Our candidate for vice-president
is a thoroughly practical man of
high ideals, whose long experience
in legislative service would make
him wholly qualified to be president
should the emergency require it.
The Republican party has been
the governing power during a per-
iod which has seen this country ac-
quire a degree of prosperity and
human welfare never before attained
in this land or anywhere else. There |
never was a more popular admins
tration than Calvin Coolidge's, and |
no president was ever more honored !
and trusted Mr.. Hoover is the man
to carry on his policies, and proceed |
to new and grand steps of progress,
the result of his amazing power of
organization and generous impulses.

REASONS FOR NOT VOTING
The total vote cast this year will
be larger than ever before. Some of
course always forget to vote. They
are so absorbed in their own con-
Germs, that election day slips by,
and all at once they look at their
and note that the time for
the polls has past. They re-
mark that it will make no difference.
Yet if all these negligent folks
could wake up and do their duty,
many unsatisfactory results would
,ome out better ;
Then there is the pessimestic ele-
nent. These people claim that all
political parties are corrupt, and :
hat it makes no particular differ :
nee who gets elected. !
This view lacks intelligence. Peo- s
lie who read the political news I
arefully know that there are plenty
# good people in all parties, and 7
many of them get elected to Office,
nd they do the best they can for t
.ood government. If all the people /
Who claim to want honest and eff
lent government would get out :
nd vote, these useful politicians r
you'd be so supported and backed a
p that they could accomplish far S
lore than they can now. T
Then there are the people who =
imply say they are not interested q
4 politics. The dramatic clash of O
arties and candidates, the struggle t
f competing ideals and standards,
axes place before their very eyes, I
ne of the most thrilling things in
7orld history, and they can't see
interesting in it. These -
eople are mentally asleep. Some a
ne should wake them up. Politics P
the most interesting thing in Am ,ie
rican life, and people who fail to tt
bserve its development are missing g
lot. -
