brought him to Florida when he
was less than two years old. He
has attended school in Alachua,
Levy, Marion and Citrus Coun-
ties and since 1920 has been
resident of Palm Beach County,
residing with his family at Lake
Park.
Barney is the father of three
boys, two of whom have just re-
turned from active duty in the
armed services.
Banking, auditing work, whole
sale and retail mercantile bust
ness were Barney's chosen pur-
suits until he entered public life.
For the past twenty years, he
has served the people of his home
county and the state of Florida.
His experience as county COM
missioner and, for the past five
sessions, as chairman of the sLeg4
silative Committee of the State
Association of County Commits
sioners has familiarized him with
all branches of state government
as we'll as with the vital needs
of this state. The acquaintance
made during this 20-year period
should prove invaluable to him
in the office he now seeks. sz
In announcing his candidacy
for State Railroad Commissioners,
Mr.. Poston said, Based on my
experience in different walks OF
life and having been a public
servant for the past twenty years,
| feel that l am fully qualified
to administer the duties of the
position which l seek. My record,
known to my many friends IN
every walk of life over the en-
tire state of Florida, is the real
basis of my candidacy. My slogan
is Qualified by Experience" and
my public record will bear out
the truth of this statement"

$50 for his ingenious testing
adapters for diesel type fuel
pumps and main engine COVER
nors. Prior to Mr.. Shiver's
methods which are now in cur
rent use, considerable time was
evolved in testing these units
due to the fact that no equip
ment was available at this sta
ton for the purpose and the
tests had to be made aboard ship.
This was difficult procedure
because it was necessary that
tests be made with engines run
ming and inasmuch as these units
are a contributing factor to make
the engines run, often the units
had to be removed, adjusted and
re-installed several times in
order to even get the engines
started. A saving of $1,000 a year
is being affected by this idea.
Firing Pin Jig
1t was recommended that w. j.
Edwards, Jr., formerly of the
Industrial Electric Shop X-51, be
given an award of $50 for his
idea involving a jig used for re-
moving and replacing the firing
1in on Marx x rocket launehers.
Mr.. Edwards incorporated sew
eral new features in the standard
compressor jig furnished by Blu
Ord whereby one man can re-
move and replace these firing
pins without any assistance.
Previously this had been con-
sidered two man job.

Section of PW. Inasmuch as this

Of adopting workable suggestions
Of this nature, the committee felt
that nominal award of SIS
would have a good effect on
morale.
A suggestion submitted by
Robt. F. Smith, Messenger with
the X-31 Inside Machine Shop,
won $25 for himself. His idea is
to consolidate several clerical
operations in the recording of
changes on job orders into a
single operation, thereby saving
considerable time and dpublica-
ton of effort. An estimated $500
yearly will be saved by this sug-
gestion.
The colored workers of the
Base were represented by Tony
Gaskin, Inside Machine Shop,
who won $40 for devising a sim
pie lifting device for use around
milling machines in safety and
for the quick handling of index
ng, heads and other accessories.
This is a very fine, suggestion
and will save a considerable
amount of money, time, and en-
ergy yearly. a.,fa,fa rsaa

don't we, Gregory" he exclaimed. But the radio has been broken for more than three weeks, and we haven't been able to follow the thrilling adventures of that great exponent of justice. And another thing far more serious, yes, far more serious" he said, shaking a finger, T haven't been able to learn what my political opponents are saying against me-"
 The Democratic candidate for the states highest office, being man of his convictions, replied upon ques- tioning, that COP accusation or opinions trouble him mot 8 bit, not Q bit" He was too engrossed in the Democratic platform he hoped would materialize come January.
 He is thoroughly enjoying the strenuous round of speeches and dinners. Yet above the tumultuous cheering and applause, he treasures most the song recently written for him by a former student, Allie Ruble, entitled Come Rain or Shine, Give Snow Your Vote"
 Started as LObsterman
 MT. Snow settled once again in the chair near the bookcases and re- lated his early life, punctuating the story with much of the salty, home spun humor so native to the Maine seafaring folk, whom he deserted at IT, after serving as a lobsterman for three years, to enter Bowdoin College with no more than $50 in his pocket and plenty of confidence in kind world.
 He was the first Bowdoin graduate to receive the Longfellow Fellowship, which offered him an opportunity to study for his masters degree at Col umbia University.
 Between 1910 and 1919, the young and footloose college professor and progressive liberal taught English successively at New York University, Bowdoin College, William College, University of Utah, Indiania Uni versity and Reed College. In 1911-12 he sandwiched full year in Alaska as Eskimo teacher and reindeer agent and served as a lieutenant in the field artillery during World War I.

worldwind courtship. Asked what it might have been about the radical, strong minded professor that ap- pealed to her, she blushed slightly, looked furtively at her husband, who waited anxiously for the answer, and then hesitated.
 Be gad", he said, skipping his knee with gusto, She doesn't know yet after A years"
 But the, Professor loves to relate the story told him by Mrs. Winifred Mcdonald, of this city, at 8 recent campaign meeting A woman present who had seen the lieutenant-gover- nor and his wife for the first time exclaimed to Mrs. Mcdonald. You know I think those two are still in love, I do declare
 Marriage Is Stabilizer

perhaps they're are millions like her whose enjoyment of living is marred," he said solemnly. Grieves For Broken Homes Furthermore, the lieutenant gov- ernor who chersishes his wife and family and pleasant home life, above all his many blessings, is grieved to think that SO many young families are being broken up by discord, separation and divorce which find root he believes in the current housing problem. The sub ject was also very close to the heart of Mrs. Snow, for it was at this point only that she ventured to speak.
 Young couples, living with others today, are enduring almost impos- sible situations. I'm confident these young people are braver and more sensible than those of past genera tions. The war proved that. And it they had their own home, the dif- flculties that take them finally to the divorce courts would be elim- mated. The girl who finds herself grieving about the hostility of her sister -in-law would be 6 gloriously happy wife in a home of her. own wondering how she was going to get some new curtains"
 And tell those veterans not to spend their money for 5000 and $1o,0oO home" the neutenant-gov- ernor broke in. The price is ridi- i culous and they'll be burdened with | debt for many years" His accelerat- ted housing program will start nov ing the day he enters office, if elect ed, MT. Snow promises. He's plan- ming low-cost apartment houses on state or town-granted developments. The lieutenant-governor considers Franklin Delano Roosevelt the I greatest spiritual leader since Lin- | coin.
 When I say I shall attempt to follow in some measure in his foot steps. realize it is big order. But l shall try my best. Personally I don't believe people are seeking so much bigger bank accounts as that feeling of security and peace within themselves. Everywhere go ! mo- tice people are restless, they're spiritually weary" They don't vii brate that inner strength" It troubles me"
 Off For Waterbury
 One of the boys annuonced," The man who promised to drive you to Waterbury is here" and the Heuten- ant-governor yelled Somebody get my macintosh" Then he remember ed something very important. He walked quickly to the mantel, open the creaking door of the old clock and extricated two tickets. Sur prise for Gregory and Donald" he said. Tickets to the Amherst game"
 Mrs. Snow without so much as a peek in the mirror donned her grey suit jacket and becoming grey tailored hat with coQ feather, and Father and Mother Snow with mul- titudinous instructions to the boys, were oil to gather more votes.
 AS the car started of, Cousin Helen came rushing out of the door, shouting What time will you be back for lunch?," "Oh," yelled back both the gubernatorial candidate and his wife, we forgot to tell you. It's a luncheon meeting"
 The big house seemed suddenly awfully empty. Cousin Helen secur-
 ed the screen door, deep in solemn
 thought, and then nodded he'd head.
 This hectic business of political , campaigning indeed perlexed her. But she quickly sought a chair, de- termined, 1t seemed, to enjoy some
 of this unaccustomed peace and uuiet.
