Republicans at Parkman Saturday

Some 200 Republicans swung
into the serious part of their fall
campaign this week with a din
ner meeting at Parkman. Sena-
tor John w .Bricker, candidate
for reelection to the U. S. Sen
ate was the principal speaker.
James Garwick, local Repub-
lican chairman presented and
introduced Theron Dean of Bur-
ton, treasurer of the county Re-
publicans. Dean warned that
the Democrats had won four pre-
cincts in Geauga in the past cleo
ton; that their number was in
creasing and they were better
organized this year than ever be-
fore. -.

those of today should hold the
same view.
Bureaucracy in Washington
was denounced down the entire
alphabetical list. Bricker point
ed out that there was nothing
in the Social Security fund in
which workers and employers
have been contributing except
government IOU's - that this
fund was $14 billion IN the
red at this time.
He pointed out that from a
mathematical standpoint the
government had already reached
bankruptcy - the national debt
today equals the assessed value
of the country.
"You had to work up to May
10 of this year." he said, "be-
fore you earned a penny for
yourselves. Up til then you
were just working to pay taxes"

for Outstanding Service to Geanga

How splendid it is that the
choice has fallen upon two such
women - one in the beginning
of her life as a citizen of this
county, young ,acuve, energetic
the other a woman of deep
understanding and wisdom, of
rich experience, each filled with
an inner urge to give of herself,
her thought, her judgment, her
energy, wherever these should
be most needed.
1T is not usual that a young
woman coming into a new area
can so quickly become a power
for good in her community as
has this charming, versatile
young woman who, with her
husband makes her home over
there on Heath Road in Chester
Township.
"a member of the Chesterland
Baptist church, she served an
apprenticeship as teacner IN
the Sunday school and for some
two years has carried the re-
sponsibility of superintendent of
the Sunday school.
Her membership in the Chest
er Study club and of the Chest
er Garden club bespeaks her
love of culture and beauty. Not
content with these alone she has
served on the Community Insti-
tute in Chesterland and has
been a never, failing and in
dustrious worker on the annual
drives of the Red Cross, the Tu-
berculosis and the Cancer funds.
