THE BRANTLEY ENTERPRISE NAHUNTA, GEORGIA THURSDAY, AUGUST 26, 1954
For this week we are quoting
from an unknown author. The
source from which we lifted
this was marked “Author Un
known”. ■
ABOUT THE PREACHER.
“If he is young he lacks ex
perience; if his hair is gray he
is too old. If he has several child
ren he has too many; if not he
is setting a bad example.
If his wife sings in the choir
she is forward; if she does not
she is not interesteed in his
work.
If he speaks from notes he has
canned sermons and is dry; if
he is extemporaneous he is too
deep. ,
If he spends too much time in
his study he neglects his people;
if he visits he is a gad-a-bout.
If he is attentive to the poor
he is playing to the grandstand;
if to the wealthy he is trying to
be an aristocrat.
If he suggests improvement
for the Church he is a dictator;
if not he is a figurehead.
If he uses too many illustra
tions he neglects the Bible; if
not enough he is not clear.
If he condemns wrong he is
cranky; if he does not he is a
compromiser.
If he preaches an hour he is
windy; if less he is lazy.
If he fails to please every
body he is hurting the church;
if he does please everybody he
has no convictions.
If he preaches tithing he is a
money-grabber; if he does not he
is failing to develop his people.
If he receives a large salary he
is mercenary; if it is a small
salary is proves he is not worth
much.
If he preaches all the time the
people get tired of hearing him;
if he invites guest preachers he
is shirking his responsibility.
Yes! They say the preacher
has an easy time.”

Seniority Does Not Mean Better Representation It Seems, Nowadays
It Just Means Better Dollars For The Family Connection!
More Real Truth
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE EIGHTH DISTRICT:
1 WELL I THOUGHT I WAS running for Congress against only one member of Congress. NOW I
FIND from official records that lam running ainst the ENTIRE WHEELER FAMILY!
2 WHEN YOU ELECT a Representative to Congress how many of the family do you expect to put
on the payroll at Taxpayer’s Expense? We all thought we were just paying the expense of the
person elected.
3. THE TRUTH IS: We are, and have been, paying: large salaries to FIVE OTHER MEMBERS of
the Wheeler Family. All told, the incumbent has paid out of the taxpayers’ pockets to his family
the staggering sum of $33,239.17! This is besides his own salary and expense account.
4. WHEN YOU ELECT me to Congress on September Bth, you are not going to pay money out
of your pockets to anybody in my family but me.
5 I AM GOING TO USE THE expenses permitted for the upkeep of the office to hire a first-rate,
efficient office staff This is a large district and the demands of the people are many. Your Repfe
sentative °cannot serve the people* without first-class office help. No wonder
ordinary and special requests receive no attention. With the Congressman keeping only the small
office staff tha? he lists on his official stationery, it is impossible for them to perform the duties that
our Congressmans’ office demands—especially since he himself, devotes so little time to his job.
6. THESE FIVE MEMBERS of the Wheeler family stay, for the most part, at home in Alma.
7 THIS PRACTICE OF CONGRESSMEN PUTTING MEMBERS OF THEIR FAMILY ON THE
PAYROLL IS CALLED NEPOTISM and has been exposed time and again in the House ana me
Senate. It is such a flagrant abuse of the taxpayers money that several Congressmen have been
jailed for it. Public Opinion has condemned the practice so severely that few Congressmen now.
put even one member of their families on theii payroll.
8. WHEN HE VOTES AGAINST bills to help his ne ghbors, the Congressman piously extolls his
prudence and conservatism with the taxpayers noney.
9. WHEN HE VOTED 5 TIMES against R.E.A.. ie did not vote against paying LEDLY D.
WHEELER $643.33 per month, or $7,719.96 per » >ar.
10 WHEN HE FAILED TO VOTE for increased • a Rons for Veterans Hospitals, he did not
vote against paying ELMORE WHEELER $444.55 so un.
11 WHEN HE FAILED TO VOTE on Farm Price . ti e diLerent times, he did not vote
against paying GLENDA R. WHEELER $444.55 • s .3 .. < 0 p-r year.
12. WHEN HE FAILED to vote to override the ■ " I crease, he did not vote against
AUBEE L. WHEELER $223.30 per month.
13. WHEN HE FAILED to vote for a bill to help • ’ ' ’ ■ ,r WHEELER
arms or legs or both, fighting for us, he did not e against paying ROSALIND M. WHEELE
$276.92 per month.
He dishes out Conservatism for His Neighbors, but Squanders the taxpayers money on his family.
WELL, IT MEANS LESS AND LESS TO THE PEOPLE OF THE EIGHTH DISTRICT.
IT’S THE ENTIRE Bth DISTRICT NOW AGAINST THE WHEELER FAMILY.
