friends in Milford.
Mrs. John w. Ratcliff visited her
daughter in Germantown last week.
Fire of unknown origin destroyed
the large flour mills of Hendricks

loss of about $1,000. The mill pro-
perty was owned by Sharp Wilson,
and was valued at about $4,000. All
of the milling machinery was to-
tai loss. Mr.. Hendricks returned
home from Milford about midnight
and at that time there were no
signs of fire.

BE SURE TO REGISTER

There is no need to keep repeating that the coming
Presidential election is important That this is crucial
period we'll understood not only by those who are the
presumed leaders but by the rank and file. People gem
era are fully awake to the basic issues They already
have weighed the facts which have been presented to them
over and again though in varying aspects and all
ready great numbers of citizens have up their minds
to how they will vote.
The campaign for November 7th Election didn't start
just this month 1t has been going on for years Events
abroad and happenings at home have substituted for
studied oratoy and have kept people we'll informed
the country needs Sometimes that those in posi-
ton to direct the affairs of the country know little about
the common people-the ten times ten millions of ordi-
nary folks who comprise the bulk and the manstay
the nation This lack of awareness of many in high places
shows itself in its advcegvng and exhortaton especially
by those seeking votes the people, given the facts
are not intelligent enough to make their decisions
But the masses do make their decisions and there
is abundant proof available that they know the answers
and could vote them this very day.
The great present therefore is getting peo-
pie fully prepared to rcord their decisions at the polls on
November z which is only about forty five days off, To
get citizens to register is the major task for the next
two or three weeks Because many of our boys are
seas and there is uncertainty about the Soldier vote
men must be urged to register and to vote in larger
bers than usual Men in the industries often on late
Shifts coming home tired from their work. may be in
cned to neglect registering But in such friendly
persuasion and contributed transportation to registration
centers will help.
Pass up the grandoquent phrases about the patrio-
tic duty of registering Of course it's patriotic But put
ting it buntly can't get your into office except
by your vote and can't vote you fail to register

attach them to the crime that
was committed almost a month

question the man who claimed
to have been robbed, asking him
If he could identify any of the

and said, he was not certain.

convicted, I will not only fight
through the Courts, but through
