This is quite unusual and is encouraging, he declared. Heretofore we had to go out and bring them in, he added.
 He asked many republicans to turn out for the task of having those who. applied made voters. The Eselectmen meet Saturday and three days next week from g a. m. to 6 D. m. each day and because of the large list this year, all of this time may be needed. There are some who still don't realize that just ap- plying to be made is not enough. they again must appear to be made, he explained.
