Now, this bill, HB 793 is not a branch of the absentee voter edict or repealer. Instead, it allows a person to appear individually before the circuit clerk and ballot, or if a municipal election, before the city clerk. He must make affidavit before the proper official under oath that he is not disqualified to vote, and if the election calls for poll tax receipts, he must show them just as does any voter at the polls. Since the voter actually must himself appear and cast his ballot, the only difference between his balloting at the polls on election day is a matter of time, a couple up to 10 days' difference to be. exact.

No apparent danger therefore exists that somebody will get a handful of absentee ballots, and throw an election as has been accused in the past. 518 W.

She has attempted to get the house to take up in committee of the whole two measures which would alleviate some of the school consolidation pains in her county, upon the plea that her own high school at Sturgis might be abolished to great hurt to the town. Only one legislator, as this writer recalls, actually stood alongside Mrs.

Gore and spoke out in favor of giving the counties some chance to keep some of their more benefit of the qualified votes of many persons that might otherwise be disfranchised in some elections, despite the fact they are qualified electors. And, we might sidestep a future attempt to do way with poll taxes because some voters are disfranchised. Its a good thing for the legislators to think over, and vote for. TO AS I OF LENTEN MEALS!

How many people could enjoy the pleasure and convenience of an automobile, home appliances, household furnishings, or family wardrobe purchases if they had to pay cash? And could you secure cash immediately to pay doctor bills, or dentists bills in case of sudden and unexpected illness. Fortunately for most of us, we don't have to pay cash for everything we buy. We can take advantage of consumer credit which enables us to buy and enjoy the things we want, when we want them, and to pay for them later. Whether our income is large or small, we can enjoy the privilege of buying almost anything, anywhere if our credit record is good.

And the only way to maintain a good credit record is to buy only what you know you can pay for and pay for it on the date that it is due. Buy Wisely Pay Promptly CREDIT BUREAU OF JACKSON 1 LB. PKG.
