The organization of a perma-

right direction, for the county is
rich in tradition and in historical
places, many of which have al

whose ancestors fought in the Rev.

expected to see him. Mr.. Beall
has an engaging chuckle he
laughed when we told him we were
sorry we could not say we had
voted for him, and replied that
he would be coming up again and
would "live in hope.
OF course every one is always
