than another because he may
have been born in a certain To-
cality. Some men who go into
politics make point of the fact
that they we're born in the state
they seek to represent, that their
ancestors for many years were
born, lived and died there. 1t is
not the place where his ancestors
lived, or the place where he was
born, that makes a man an able
public servant. There is more
in the man than in the location
his parents picked out, through
accident or design, for him to
make his appearance in the world.
And that's a lesson worth learn

A man who was born in Mass

American Legion in South Car

ance of his office he said, "You
have shown here today that the

people to understand that the

little to do with the sort of man
he is, what he may accomplish
for the United States, or for the
state to which he moves, or for
the city he elects to live in. That
a man was born III one place

make him any less able to serve
any other place when he becomes

ROLLIN' RIGHT ALONG

Like "Ole Man River" in the
popular ballad by that title, the
Republican 2 ~ in Charles
County don't say nothin' -ies
keeps rollin' along" And, as
those who know something about
the great game of politics say,
it's going to keep right n roll
lin until November, when, on
Election Day, it will rush into the
great sea of Victory.
A short time ago it looked as
though h e Republicans here
were headed for bitter Primary
contest, and what appeared to
be insurmountable obstacles
doomed in the path to harmony,
But a determination to win this
fall predominated in the minds
