RADIANT LIVING
Selling Out
By Rev. C. Nj. Griffeth
Pastor Methodist Church

by rev. u. NJ. GrlIIeCn
Pastor Methodist Church
Ridgely, Md.
While going through a town the
other day I saw a sign which read:
SELLING Out" The sign set me think
ing.
A great many people are selling
out today-but selling out too cheap
H.
Remember Esau? For the mere
pleasure of enjoying a good dinner,
did he not sell his priceless birth
right?
What men and women pay today
for an hours indulgence in gratifying
the desires that rise within them is
tremendous. The money paid is the
smallest part of the price they pay.
You too possess birthright. 1t in
cludes your clean character. It in
cludes your reputation for sobriety,
honesty, purity. It includes your ply
sical body, strong, healthy and beau
tiful. It includes your mind, develop
ed, educated and trained. It includes
the years of hard work, intense study,
and extensive sacrifice to bring you
to where you are today.
Now comes Temptation, soliciting
you to indulge-to sell out for some
passing qualification.
It has taken years to produce the
qualities and the virtues which you
now possess. One hours indulgence
and they will lbe shattered forever.
Don't sell! The price you are Of
fered is too low!

233 Write-Ins
At Primary
In This County

Two hundred and 33 write-ins
made the official canvass of the
primary election returns an I'M
usually big job for the Board of
Supervisors this week.
Because of the large number of
write-ins the beard was forced to
spend two and one half days max
ing the canvass. Usually the time
required is about one day.
Most of the write-ins were a re-
suit of the vote for presidential
electors. For instance, it was neces-
sary tc make several lists in the
case Of Writ c. Bowman. Some vot--
ed for him properly, others as ''W-
Bowman" Mr.. Bowman" ''W. G.
Bowman, etc.
With few exceptions the official
canvass totals were the same as.
the unofficial carried by newspa-
pers Robert H. F1eischer, high man
in the voting, get 1857 votes for
county assessor, one more than the
newspapers reported, and Supervi-
sor r. T. Frazier get 785 instead Of
the newspaper figure of 764.

Appointees OF A Retiring Governor
Should Resign When Successor
Takes Office, Says W. G. Bowman

order to accomplish this, the State
would have to bear an additional
expense of twenty or thirty thous-
and dollars-just to satisfy the
whins or caprices cf g few. I note
also, from Under The Capi-
tol Dome that these. few even
want Mcfarland to resign before
Jones goes out so that he can name
his successor - thus creating an
other obstacle for the incoming
Governor.
''The primary laws in this State
incidentally, I am for the old way)
give any citizen the right to seek
office, and the citizens the right to
vote for whom they please; after
the primaries it is the duty of all
of the same party tc forget who
ran for what and get behind the
nominee in every respect to elect
and make him a success. My belief
is to get behind your nominee 1000
even to the point of giving him the
right to- name all the key men to
appointive positions, regardless Of
what his predecessor has done OF
what the law says. I really believe
that every man who has received

Governor, regardless of for how
long it may be, should resign when
