In every political campaign the party on the outside trying to get in accuses the "ins" of having overlooked this important member of society. The electorate is deluged with campaign material and promises are made with little thought of their ful-- fillmept.

His views upon international politics and weighty economic problems are soli-- <'tad and carefully listened to by those who generally are ob-- livious of his opinions. Orators lash them§elves into a frenzy as they extol his virtues and bemoan his hardships.

Its second objective is to main-- tain a constant, even flow of water throughout the summer sea-- son particularly,--when, in the past, the summer flow has been very small. *~+ * a The Regional Planning Association, which is an association of the cities, villages and counties in the entire region of Chi-- cago, has recommended to the voters of the entire Fox river | valley a favorable vote on the district on August 10. Nothingf finer could happen for that important part of the region.
