Mrs. Osborn said she believed

vance more money for lunches in
the schools for the children of well
fare dependents.
Mrs. Osborn expressed the opin-

see that depositors in closed banks
are paid off 100 per cent.

ELECTION TIME
BY J. Edward Mccall

Politicians when elected,
oft forget us common folk;
They prop their feet on office desks,
And chat and scheme and smoke;
They seem deaf to the Negroes cry,
And leave US to sink or float,
Until their office terms expire,
And the time rolls round to vote.
We stand and knock outside their doors,
And vainly ask for jobs;
They fail at times to lift hand,
To shield us from mad mobs;
But when election campaigns start,
And they're in lcaky boat,
We help them bail the water out,
When the time rolls round to vote.
Elections come, elections go,
And we like to play the game;
But after each election day,
Our plight is just the same.
Winter time is now at hand;
We may not own coat,
We may not even have a dime
But we have the chance to vote.

added:
What is the cause Of this

men have turned from the light

This is an indication of the ap-

Creomulsion is made to give supreme
help for coughs or colds that worry you.
1t combines seven helps in one-the best

relief, for safety.
But careful people, more and more,
use it for every cough that starts. No
one knows where a cough may lead. No
one can tell which factor will do most.
That depends on the type of cold.
Creomulsion costs little more than
lesser helps. But it means the utmost
help. And it costs you nothing if it fails
