Pastor Urges Aid
To Drifting Men

There is too much good in
many persons to throw them
away because of a moral lapse.
Throw them upon the moral
dump heap of life and they
quickly degenerate and become al
together bad. Add your sympathy,
brotherhood and lifting power of
Christian love to the good left in
him and you have saved a man"
Such were. the words of the
Rev. j. j. Rives, pastor of Emory
Methodist Church, in his sermon
yesterday, who urged his con.
gregation to join a committee on
restoration, the purpose of which
is to put man on his feet again
and to turn his face once more

PUBLIC OFFICES
BARELEC7|ON
OFFICIALS
BY LOUIS E. WHITE

Public officials in Prince
Georges county who also are cleo
ton officials may be compelled to
give up one of the positions before
the election next month, it was
indicated today.
1t has been pointed out that
two election officials in Mount
Rainier hold public offices. and
it was complained that this VIC
lates the law.
In an opinion handed down by
the Maryland attorney general, in
response to inquiries connected
with the Mount Rainier case, it
was stated that a paid public Of
ficial automatically loses his posi-
ton if he becomes an election
official.
Two Positions Barred
Public officials not receiving
compensation for their duties are
not allowed to take an election
official post, either, it was pointed
out, since the election laws pre-
clude any person from holding
two public offices at the same
time.
It is understood that the Prince
Georges board of county election
supervisors within a few days will
canvass all election officials to
learn whether any of them hold
other public offices.
What disposition will be made
of the cases is not known. Mem
bers of the board were adamant
today.
May Be Up to Courts
Election officials who are said
to be holding other public Of
fices are represented as being
unaware that they we're violating
the law and said to have pursued
their duplicate duties in coed
faith.
This may lead the board to
permit them to remain in their
places and leave the matter to
the courts after the election. It
has been suggested that the prac-
tice of the courts has been to in
validate votes only where fraud
Is shown, and not on a technical
violation of the law.

People Will Talk

If you listen to all that is said as
you go;
You may get through the world
but twill be very slow.
You'll be worried and fretted and
kept in a stew
For meddlesome tongues must have
something to do
And people will talk.
If quiet and modest, you'll have it
presumed,
That your humble position is only
assumed.
You're a wolf in sleeps clothing,
or else you're a fool.
But don't get excited-keep per-
fectly cool
For people will talk.
And hen if you show the least
boldness of heart,
Or a slight inclination to take your
own part,
They will call you an upstart,
conceited, and vain,
But keep straight ahead-don't
stop to explain
For people will talk.
If threadbare your dress and old
fashioned your hat
Someone will surely take notice of
that
And hint rather strong that you
can't pay your way;
But don't get excited, whatever
they say
For people will talk.
If your dress is in fashion, don't
think to escape,
For they criticize them in a differ
ent shape
You're ahead of your means, Or
your t%ailor's unpaid;
But mind your own business,
there's naught to be made
For people will talk.
Now the best way to do is to Go as
you please,
For your mind, if you have one,
will then be at ease.
Of course, you will meet with all
sorts of abuse;
But don't think to- stop them-it's
not any use
For people will talk.

Editorial comments on the i'm

been accustomed to carrying. They
are doing about twice as well as

Better times are alb1 helping.

they have been doing. The checks
offered have worried no little. But
whereas there were, February 1,

the amount of $33,466.2S, and l.
1872 received since February 1,
