WHY VOTERS
FAVOR RLUTZFOR
NOMINATION
FOR AUDITOR
BY BILL LIES

With repeated warnings from an
enlightened leadership, and having
been brought to realize the true
value Of directing their votes into
useful channels. the colorea voters
now look closer than ever before in-
to the records Of candidates for
public office before casting their bal
lots. Because Of past experiences,
they have become a bit distrustful u
the spectacular tpublic-olfice seek
err type of candidate who grabs oil
an Office by working fast in cam
paigns rather than proving worthy
BY public service.
IL ii ia this light that the West
Side Democrats have found Joseph
Al. Lutz the logical choice for the
nomination for County Auditor. Mr..
Lutz, who has served IN this office
for 20 years, is known as the best
County Auditor in the State Of Ohio.
Before his election to Office he pre-
pared himself thoroughly for his
work BY serving seven years as clerk
il the Montgomery County Auditors
office. On the other hand, Charles
A. Pfieffer, his opponent is attempt
ing to hurdle half the term for which
he il TO serve as County Recorder
and leave the office vacated in order
to oppose a man Of proven worth IN
the service.
The office or County Auditor re-
quires efficiency as well the serious
attention Of one who is experienced
il this particular capacity, since tins
department handles all the finance
for Montgomery County, including
police and fire departments, schools,
tax adjustments, tax collections, and
distributing, in a manner suited t0
the needs of smoothly funetionng
county and municipal government. it
handles between $35,000,000 and
S50,000,000 year. 1t has also been
Mr.. Iutz's experience to handle the
S35, 900 900 indebtedness Of tn
county bond issue. All Of this ex-
perience gained in the handling OIL
large finance plus his appointment 10
service on the Ohio State Revenue
and Tax Commission, unquestionablS
makes Mr.. Lutz the outstanding
choice for this position, and is dis
tinct evidence of his ability to CO.
operate with other departments OF
the County.
Mr.. pfieffer aside from being ali
together inexperienced in high fl
nance Of the nature involved in the
office Of County Auditor has not
finished the work he had pledged
himself to do for his supporters II
his last campaign, and this ATTITUDE
is pretty sure to indicate the exten
of his sincerity as well as his ca
paci4v for actual work in any Office

THERE WAS NOT ANOTHER THING INIT

found a piece of dark green velvet.
She took it back to her seat outside,
threaded her magic needle and in
no time at all she had finished a
beautiful little dress for the witch.
She tucked it in her pocket, and
said to herself: 'Ill give it to the
witch when Santa brings her down
from the roof"
Dawn came and Hulda went in to
wake Santa and tell him what had
happened. He bounded right out
into the snow in his red bedroom
slippers. He could hardly believe
his eyes, but there was the witch
crouched down in folds of cobweb.
Good gracious, Hulda," said
Santa. you're both clever and
brave. I must get her down" So
he hoped into his working suit and
hurried to the reindeer barn for a
ladder and climbed up on the roof
with dolls hamper to put the
witch in. He was little uncer-
tain how to do it. You know, witches
can cast dreadful spells on people, if
they're that sort of witch. But you
remember, Santa was quite certain
this witch was just an evil spirit,
and such witches don't know much
magic. They're just mean. They
go around hurting kind people and
breaking things, just as mean chill
dren do.
So Santa dropped the hamper
right down over the witch, and she
was caught as nicely as you please.
When he brought her down Hulda
shyly whispered to Santa: I've
made her a dress. May T give it to
her?"
Santa shook his head doubtfully,
but he opened the hamper just far
enough for Hulda to slip in the dress.
She said, do put this on, witch.
We won't hurt you"
The witch just cackled. She
grabbed the dress and tore it to bits.
Hulda's blue eyes opened wide with
surprise. Santa patted her on the
head and said: Its little use to be
Kind to mean people. They don't
like it." So he snapped down the
lid of the hamper again, and he and
Hulda went into the Toyshop to tell
what had happened.
But guess what the witch did when
Evening star., 1938-12-12

and it was the first time they'd done
anything important. Santa chuckled
and pulled their red curls.
And what have you got?" he
asked.
Some old bat wings we found in
the reindeer shed yesterday" said
Wink.
1--WE pinned them on our coats and
played birds" said Twink.
Sure enough, they had some old
bat wings. Santa broke them up
into bits and put a handful into the
witch's hamper. But think what
happened. When he lifted the
hamper lid, a puff of gray smoke
rose and disappeared into the air
There was not another thing in it
The witch was gone She had
changed herself into smoke, and you
know very well nobody can gather
up smoke and put it into bag. So
she disappeared right under every
body's nose.
Tomorrow: The mean Queen.

Chapter Seven

THE WITCHS NEW DRESS.
Hulda sat outside the Toyshop on
guard all night after the witch was
trapped atop the chimney. The
witch squirmed and squeaked, but
she remained fast in the trap.
The hours passed so slowly, and
the witch looked so forlorn that
Hulda began to feel sorry for her.
wonder when she had new dress
last?" Hulda said to herself: I'll
make her one" So she tiptoed into
the sleeping Toyshop to the big
cupboard, where the fairies keep all
the pretty, soft materials from which
they make dolls dresses. There she

the hamper lid was down. She picked
up a small piece of the green velvet
and tucked it into the waist of her
dirty brown dress. A tear rolled
down her cheek. 1t was the first
time any one had been kind to her,
and she was quite affected.
When breakfast was finished that
morning, Hulda slipped her hand
into Santa's and said, What do
witches eat?"
"Oh, snails and worms and bat
wings" said Santa. Guess we'll
have to get her something. Wonder
what?"
1--WE have something" piped up
Wink and Twink, the twins. Their
pink cheeks glowed with excitement
because they were such new dolls

Clifford Domke and Jack Cation,

Enjoyed Trip
To Mexico
Are Now Visiting In Califor.
MIA With Relatives And
Friends
Feb. Is, 1893.

Dear Friend Ed:
Just few lines, as I know you
would be interested to know how
we are enjoying our trip. After
leaving Sank Centre with sub-zero
weather, we arrived in Texas with,
such a contrast in the weather, es-
pecially around San Antonio and
Corpus Christie, with the tempera-
ture around 70 degrees above zero,
which we surely enjoyed very much.
The most interesting tour Sc far
was our trip down to Mexico City.
It was so much different than we
expected. In the first place the
highway Is wonderful, especially
the construction of same to drive
on the mountains. The mode of the
natives is so primitive it reminds
one of history of at least 200 years
ago. They till the soil by hand and
in many places with oxen and they
walk many miles carrying their
products to market on their backs
or on burros. The scenes along the
highway are wonderful in regard to
the vegetation from the tropics in
the valley to the snow capped
mountains. It really is beyond des-
cription and that part Of the trip
alone is worth the $500 mile drive to
get down here, not mentioning any
thing about historical Mexico City
with it's beautiful churches, many
Of them built in the Sixteenth Gen.
fury and the very large Pyramids
which date back to the year S00.,
also besides many more things too
numerous to mention.
The climate down here could new
er be beat on account Of the alti-
tude on which Mexico City Is locat-
ed-never too hot and never toe
cold.
Hope some day that you and your
family will have the opportunity to
visit this wonderful country. We
are leaving for Los Angeles, and
will write you again II I get the
opportunity.
With best regards to everybody
and best wishes from your friend
Ed Fettgather.

Bird House Contest
At Merchants Natl.
Boys And Girls Under 16 Years Are
Eligible To Prize Com
petition

Registrations for the bird house
contest now being conducted by the
Merchants National Bank, of this
city, are coming in fast. Boys and
girls under sixteen years Of age are
eligible, and those who compete
will have an opportunity to place
their bird houses on sale. The pro-
ceeds CT each bird house will go to
each individual builder. Thirteen
prizes are offered as follows:
First prize $1,000.
Second prize $3.50.
Third prize $500.
Ten fourth prizes $1.00 each.
All registrations must be at the
bank before March 10th, and the
bird houses must be at the bank for
judging not later than April LIST.
Only one exhibit will be accepted
from each boy or girl. The Judging
in this contest will be done on
April 3rd.
Discussions Of the origin Of the
nest-box idea have placed the date
at most a few centuries back, but
circumstantial evidence indicates a
much greater age for it. Certain
uncivilized tribes have the greatest
facility for tanning wild creatures,
and often their homes are shared
by a variety Of furred and feathered
pets. This is no modern develop
ment; it is an ingrained trait Oh
the people, and is the very thing
that resulted in the subsection Of al
domesticated animals, process the
beginnings of which are lest in an
