LET'S ACCEPT
OUR RESPONSIBILITY
LET'S REGISTER AND VOTE

IL . NE0ho I'm AMI VILE
We fret and complain quite deal
about the fact that members of our
race are not allowed to vote in much
of the Southern States. This is true.
We have to work mighty hard to get
to the polls in much of the South.
However, we have nothing to stop us
here in Illinois. There are many OF
us who are not registered right here
in Champaign Many of us have had
a careless and an unCOnCerned attl-
tude about voting and have not taken
the time or trouble to register, there
fore we can not vote.
If we claim the right of citizenship
in our city or state we have some
responsibility One of the most inn
portant of all our responsibilities is
voting. If we are atall concerned
about our life, our work or our play,
we have the responsibility of voting
We must understand that our govern
ment is so built that is run by those
who vote. If we don't like the way
things are going it is our duty to
change our representatives, and if we
do like the way il is being run it is
also our duty to vote for the party or
men responsible for making and exc
cutting our laws. If we fail to vote We
are to be considered as worth little OF
nothing TO our community, state and
country, and as a matter of fact, il
would be much better if somebody
else was living in our stead. Let's
consider our opportunity and duty
and get registered and vote in Novem-
Der. Even if you have never voted
do it this year Certainly, you will be
much more respected by those who
know you. If you do not know how
to go about getting registered just &C
to the County Clerk in Urbana Ht
will take care of you Let's get busy

The Primary Election in California.
He went into a lot of detail in ex-
planning how Vice-President Nixon's
campaign is being run in California
from several Public Relations Offices
in Los Angeles, San Diego. San

This is all right if you apply the

it away if you don't like the cigarettes.
Ii isn't as easy as that when you're
buying President or Congressman
You can't throw him away-or not
until he's done all the harm he can,
anyway So when you're deciding
about who TO vote for this year
remember to look through the publ
city smokescreen at the man behind
it,
One things for sure, we don't get
any Lincoln's or RooseveIts out of
Madison Avenue.
Never mind the claims. Look at
the record. That's what counts-the

This advice is important to all of
US, but il is especially vital to those
of US who form part of the minority

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

CHANGE: During the years
when he was writing plays,
author w. Somerset MauR-
ham was a favorite of theat-
rical producers, because he
raised no objections when
changes were suggested.
At one time, he was in the
East Indies on a vacation trip
when one of his plays went
into rehearsal in New York.
The producer was dissatisfied
with a third act scene and
wanted to make some re-
visions. He could not do so.
however, without Maugham's
consent.
After spending a small
fortune trying to locate the
author, the producer finally
tracked him down in Batavia,
Java. He sent Vaughan a
long, costly cable, explaining
the weaknesses in the scene
as originally written.
Maugham's reply was sim
plicity itself.
Change it," he wrote.
