A PRINCIPLE INVOLVED
Voting ought to be viewed as a
privilege rather than an irksome duty
to be avoided whenever possible. It
should be regarded as an opportunity
to function as a citizen—an obliga
tion of citizenship in a country where
citizenship really means something.
The rapid decline of the popular
vote in the last score of years shows
that far too many people have sub
scribed to the false doctrine that a
few votes more or less will not change
the results, and that they need not
waste the time or energy to vote.
They neglect to recognize that the
grand total is made up of single
votes—that one voter can speak as
emphatically and decisively as anoth
er.
A full and free expression of the
popular will is not possible when
more than half of the voters remain
at home refusing to do their duty as
citizens.
The growing tendency to remain
away from the polls is alarming and
is an actual peril confronting our
representative form of government.
Any citizen who does not vote, un
less he has good and sufficient rea
sons for not voting, is not living up
to his responsibilities, and in the last
analysis, does not deserve citizenship
in the “Land of the free and the home
A Word With
the Old Folks
Elderly People Are Learning Importance
of Qood Elimination.
IN the later years of life there is
apt to be a slowing up of the
bodily functions. Good elimination,
however, is just as essential to the
old as to the young. Many old folks
have learned the value of Doan’s
Pills when a stimulant diuretic to
the kidneys is required. Scanty or
burning passages of kidney secre
tions are often signs of improper kid
ney function. In most every com
munity are scores of users and en
dorsers who acclaim the merit of
Doan's. Ask your neighbor!
