THE DADE COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MARCH 1, 1956

EDITORIAL
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT
FLECTION
The Primary Election, which
will be held in Dade County
next Wednesday, is probably the
most important election for the
citizens of the county. It is at
this election that we decide who
will be in charge of the county
business for the next four years.
At this March 7 election we have
a choice of men for four of the
most important county offices,
3 taxpayers and citizens it is
| our du fy> as wed as our P riv ^“
to go to the polls and vote
0ur choice.
Do not say one vote does not
make any difference, for if you
and several others all say this
it could make a lot of difference
in the final count. Also do
sa J T m Y vote cance * m y
r * e ^ hbors becau se ma y be the ,y
will change their minds and , will
go to vote and if you didn’t go
vote also, their candidate will
get several extra votes.
Voting gives us a chance for
a choice. As the time for elec¬
tion grows near, we must pause
and think about what we have
heard and know about each
candidate: which one seems to
be better fitted for the office
for which he is running, which
one can we trust to do the right
thing,, which one do we have
confidence in to do the best
job, which one would we go to
if we were in trouble or wanted
help.
Let us think over all the good
and bad we have heard about
each candidate before we go to
the polls. Let us make up our
minds which one will help us
and the county the most and
then not be changed before we
get to the polls and vote for
cur choice.
Vote as you please, but please
vote March 7.

HADDEN’S PHARMACY
OPENS MONDAY
Hadden’s Pharmacy, Trenton’s
newest business, held its official
opening Monday, Feb. 27. Many
visited the pharmacy to get ac¬
quainted with the proprietor,
Robert (Doc) Hadden, and to
see his well-stocked shelves of
prescription and sick room sup¬
plies and miscellaneous articles.
Mrs. Stacy Jenkins was an¬
nounced as winner of the radio
which was given away at the
end of the day.
Hadden said the pharmacy
had been open since he had
moved his stock in last Thurs¬
day, Feb. 23. A grad uate of
Southern College of Pharmacy
in Atlanta, where he was a stu¬
dent for four years, Hadden is
registered as a pharmacist in
both Tennessee and Georgia.
Until recently, he was associat¬
ed with Fillauer Surgical Supply
House in Chattanooga.
A policy o f presenting free
ballons to children who have
just visited the doctor will be
established, Hadden said.

LEARN ABOUT OUR
CANDIDATES
,In ber ^ ive Community
N ews - M rs - E ^ene Flower en-
closed , the t following editorial.)
1 liave reading the sec-
tion on vital statistics, by Myr-
na McMahan, in our Dade pa-
P er increasing interest. In
these art icles Mrs. McMahan
gives us the history and back¬
ground of each of the candi¬
dates in our coming election.
These men and women have
such fine backgrounds, that it
will be hard for some of us to
make up our minds just which
of them t o cast our vote for.
However, I feel that each citi¬
zen of Dade County should do
as Mr. “Gabby" Green suggested
when he spoke before a group
at Davis High School. I quote:
“Mr. Green asked the audience
to consider two applications for
a job before choosing the best
man qualified for the job.’’
Suppose we do consider that
we, as voters, are the employed.
The candidates are each apply¬
ing to us for a job. How are we
going to decide which ones are
most capable to control the af¬
fairs of our county? Will we judge
a man by the amount of “gos¬
sip” we hear about him or will
we take the applications before
us and study them carefully to
ascertain the capabilities o f
these candidates?
Much too much “gossip” is be¬
ing spread about during this
campaign. I regret to say that
people are letting themselves be¬
come influenced by these slan¬
dering remarks. I cannot urge
too strongly that the people of
Dade County disregard all “gos¬
sip” you may have heard against
the candidates, several of whose
fine records behind them speaks
for them.
Let us not pollute our Democ¬
racy, but rather do as was sug¬
gested, study the applications
carefully and then‘hire’the one
best qualified to fill the job.
Let’s keep our State of Dade
a clean and moral place to live
and completely stamp out “dirty
politics” or I fear ruination for
a free government.
