Abouf twenty residents of this village attended the golden wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Seyfferth, well known in this community. Several hundred people were present at the party held for the couple at Harmony H,all in Chicago. We all join in wishing them many more years of happiness together. B^rs.

The party was called a "Little Princess" party and the entire theme of the affair centered around the "Royalty" idea. The party began with the guest of honor tfeing crowned and she crowned her guests, each in turn. Each little princess had a little wand, made of a drinking straw with a sliver star pasted on it Games were played, with prizes being awarded the winners, and refreshments were served.

UPHOLD DEMOCRACY WITH YOUR VOTE ON ELECTION DAY Hp Mb* Little Emily Falsetti celebrated her * fifth birthday last Saturday, with a swell party for all her friends. Her guests included Louie and Frankie Pougany, Irish and Linda DeCicco. Cathy, Stephen and Violet DeCicco, Hugh and Linn Sayor, Shirley Gustafson and Cheryl and Linda Wojtas. Refreshments were served and games were played.- t " The. Associated I'rtvs, in a recent dispatch from Dallas, reported that an 80-year-old Texan who was brought to his doctor's off!ce suffering from a heart attack pleaded with his physician: "Doc. just keep me alive until after the next election." If each citizen of the United States would echo only part of the civic sentiment expressed by this octogenarian, we could point with pride to mass participation in our form of government. But the staggering fact is that approximately half the voting population of the nation cares enough about the government and the duties of a citizen to spend just one hour out of the whole year to vote. ,, The census bureau estimates that some 95,000.000 adults were eligible to vote in the 1948 presidential election. Yet. only 4S.83G,- 579 actually cast their ballots. It seems almost 'incredible that a democratic government can survive with such a narrow base pf public support. In Illinois, the 1948 election turnout was only slightly better. Of 5,927.000 adults in the state eligible to vote, only 3,984,046! went to the polls. In other words, j almost 2,000,000 of our neighbors i failed to vote. They and others! like them who stayed away from I the balloting places helped brand our nation as being only half-1 hearted about civic affairs and | half-hearted about the conduct of government. They also gave some credence to the belief held in many foreign nations that we in America preach democracy abroad but don't practice it at home. We urge you to vote Tuesday. We ask you to go to the polls April 8. We believe that even a primary presents a wonderful opportunity to show the world that there is strength and vitality in democracy--our unique form of government. As James S. Kemper, former president of the United States Chamber of Commerce, said: "The bread of democracy is ,the vote--* meager but vital crumb from thft magnificent fare which freedom affords us. The sustenance of democracy, its staff of life, is the suffrage of the people. "To men who love liberty, those who starve the ballot box are no less despicable than those who stuff it Ballot boxes starved or stuffed result in false elections. They set false governments on wrong courses. They place great power into the hands of little groups. They allow selfishness and greed, coupled with zeal, to gain control of our welfare destiny. Small elections are big opportunities for those who are incompetent and for those who arc corrupt. "The filial result, however, can only be the death and decay of democracy. Today, the alternative to democracy is dead certain. It is the slavery of communism, or its twin sister, socialism." This is a year when free society is on trial, when our form of government is engaged In A life and death struggle with the soviet world. The contest may not be decided on battlefronts with gun6 and jets but in the hearts of men everywhere. The battle cannot be won by a people who are half-hearted about democracy-- by a people who foolishly starve the ballot box. We urge you to vote. We urge you to seek out your neighbors and ask them to vote. We urge you to give sustenance to democracy. You can do it April 8.
