For Present Tags

Commissioner of Motor Vehicles
Thomas B. R. Mudd, again reminds
owners of privately owned motor
vehicles and motor cycles that their
new 1952-1953 clips must be dis
played by midnight, March 81, in
order to continue to operate, as no
extension will be granted.
Some delay in issuing clips at the
Department of Motor Vehicles has
been caused because owners failed
to insert the number of their large
1851 Maryland license plates in the
boxes across the top of the applica-
ton.
Commissioner Mudd urges all those
who have not as yet applied for
their new clips to do so Immediately
and to insert the number of the
large plates in the boxes, which must
be done correctly before the clips
are issued.

only read it, but act on it too.
Remember what the school room
text books said about it being the
duty of every citizen of a democracy
to vote. Well - it's as fundamental
today as ever. Because the funda-
mentals of our Democracy haven't
changed. And it's just as important
as ever. Perhaps more so - for our
Democracy is bigger than ever to-
day, and, therefore, more demanding
of its citizens attention.
Let it not be said of us that we
fail to appreciate the Incompatible
heritage of our American way of life
the life of free men-as opposed
to the life of totalitarian slavery.
why mention this now? Another
election year is at hand, yes, but
also, the records of our citizens in
discharging their prime responsible
ity of registering and voting in re-
cent years hasn't been all that il
might have been.
NOW is the time for every citizen
to personally acknowledge the chal-
lenge and make it a point of honor
, as good citizen of our American
Democracy, to register and vote ir
the coming elections.
Local labor and management en-
joins you to acknowledge this chal-
lenge that all our citizens should
share in self government

that it is one of the grandest things

The Retailers, at their meetings
every month, discuss and argue at
length regarding shopping hours and
the many other problems of the re-
taller, but when the idea was put
forth of donating a television set
for Bellevue, that was one time when
there was no discussion but unani-
nous agreement. Individual mem
bership donations soon raised the
amount necessary and those who
visited the home on Monday night
got ample proof of the gratitude of
the old folks, to whom the set will
give hours and hours of happy en-

Around Town With
The Editor

If you vote for Herman L. Mills
for the Republican nomination for
u. S. Senator, you will be voting for
a man who has the courage of his
convictions - and goodness knows
we will need men of courage in
Washington during the uncertain
times ahead of us.
Don't forget that the Washington
County Eisenhower Club now has
permanent headquarters in room
4O3, Second National Bank Building
- the phone number is 5676.
Luther Broom, who is confined to
his bed with heart attack, is getting
along fine, but right now he is not
allowed to have any visitors.
know, Luther, it is tough for an
active man like you to have to stay
quietly in bed for a few weeks, but
take the advice of those of us whose
hearts have also acted up - follow
your doctors orders to the letter -
and before you know it you will be
back on the job and we can resume
those friendly arguments at the
Council meetings.
Everybody in the community was
shocked to hear of the tragic death
of the Rev. Henry K. Haines, former
pastor of Zion Evangelical and Re
formed Church here, who died in
stantly in an automobile crash in
Pennsylvania on Saturday morning.
The young minister, who made
host of friends here before accepting
a pastorate in Waynesboro, was very
active in community work and was
particularly beloved by the young
people.
The recently re-organized Wom-
ems Auxiliary of the Washington
County Hospital is real step in the
right direction.
With the enlargement of the hos
pitfalls facilities, the hospital will
need, more than ever, valued help
that the Women's Auxiliary can give
for the normal operation of the hos
pital in time of peace. But it also
should be remembered that emer-
gencies can occur in any community
the recently terrible tornado in
Arkansas is a striking example -
and the very much enlarged Wom-
ems Auxiliary would be of tremen-
dous help if any such disaster struck
Washington County.
While the original auxiliary did a
fine job, the need for a much larger
group of women has been felt for
sometime and the members of the
steering committee, whose work
made the reorganization meeting
possible, deserve a world of credit.
At the reorganization meeting
Mrs. Frank Lusby was elected presi-
dent, with Mrs James Wagaman
president elect, and Mrs. Kenneth
Spence, ce-president, and these la
dies, together with Mrs. William
Dutton, recording secretary; Mrs.
Harry Kerstein, corresponding sec
rotary; and Mrs. A Harry Warne,
treasurer, will constitute the govern
ing body Of the enlarged organiza-
ton.
Too many of us just talk about
what can be done for the good of our
community, but the nearly $50 ladies
who attended the reorganization
meeting of the Women's Auxiliary,
held recently, have taken concrete
action, for which they deserve the
thanks of the entire community.

ization Mr.. Williams told his audi
ence that Democrats all over the ma
ton were pouring into the Eisen-

the Republican or Democratic tick
ct - who can restore the confidence
of the people.
He was followed by Richard
Simms, state co-ordinator of the Els
enhower Clubs in the twenty-three
counties, who outlined to the Local

ed president urged all present t,
