"SHE REGISTERED"
New York Lady Makes Trip In Wheel Chair.-Will Vote
 For Hoover.

The following, contributed by a lady who has just returned from New York, win put to shame election day slackers, those who refuse the privilege of casting a ballot for the president of the United States:
 A New York lady anxious to vote for the first time. but who can not walk and gets about in wheel chair, asked a friend how it could be done. She was advised to write to the Re- publican captain of her district.
 She did so and a gentleman, run ming for the assembly on the Repub- lican ticket, called for her in his car. She was unable to get into the car so was wheeled to the registration headquarters. Here another difficult ty was encountered. She could not get up the five steps. This obstacle was surmounted when the book was brought down to her. She registered there in front of the building.
 Being a regularly registered voter the woman will go to the polls on next Tuesday. The same gentleman has promised to calf for her and she will make a second trip in her wheel chair. She intends 10 vote for Her bert Hoover even though she has to be carried up the five steps to do it. Her friends are delighted with her fortitude and she is considered a heroine in their eyes.
