And we think perhaps, that sometimes Dade County can best be seen from Atlanta. At least that seems to be the case in point. Recently at a gathering in the Capitol City we did more listes- ing than talking and learned quite a bit about a Dade County man, who for all practical pur¬ poses is Dade County to this group.' Everything we heard was complimentary. And it seems fitting and proper to spread the word.

Well, we found out that he has been far less quite and un¬ assuming in Atlanta. We found out that he was the prime mover in getting U. S. 11 re¬ paired, in getting other road contracts in Dade. We found out that he is hard- headed and demanding when it comes to passing laws for the benefit of Dade. He is respected, even by those who may be his political enemy. Rep. Hale has brought much credit upon the people he repre¬ sents and to this county. And he has many things the works—in the interest of better Dade County. Before that little had broken up—we found selves raising the volume of voice to make it known that were from Dade too! Maddox Hale is OUR sentative.
