POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
The following announcements
for public office are made subject
to the action of the Democratic
Second Primary, Aug. 26.
For County and District Clerk:
MRS. OPAL CLEEK
MRS. FANNIE WILLIAMS
ALL BOXES WILL BE USED
IN DEMOCRATIC RUN-OFF
Ali nine voting precincts in Car-
son County will he used for the
run-off Democratic primary Sat-
urday, Aug. 26 _
Announcement to this effect
was made by W. L. Boyles, chaii-
man of the Carson County Demo-
cratic Executve Committee.
As Carson county has one coun-
ty-wide race, the committee be-
lieves that it is fair to all parts
of the county to have every box
available for the voters. The
county has nine boxes.
The one run-off will be between
Mrs. Opal Cleek of Panhandle
and Mrs. Fannie Williams of
White Deer for county and dis-
trict clerk.
It is believed that there will be
only two other races on the tick-
et—supreme court justice and at-
torney general.
Richard Critz opposes Gordon
Simpson for supreme court justice
and Grover Sellars, incumbent,
has Jesse Martin of Fort Worth
as his opponent. .
Absentee balloting will begin
Saturday, Aug. 5, and will con-
tinue until Tuesday, Aug. 22.
Indications are that there will
be a good demand f'or absentee
ballots, as it is expected that sev-
eral persons will be away on elec-
tion day because of the annual va-
cation season.
As Potter antd Randal counties
will use only one voting box on
run-off election day, a rumor was
started that it was the plan to use
onlv one in Carson County.
FACTORY-DAMAGED SHOES
Mr. Consumer may be lucky
enough to get a pair of factory-
damaged shoes without a shoe ra-
tion shoe coupon and for no more
than $1.80 a pair, if his shoe
dealer happens to have some shoes
on hand and obtains permission
from the OPA District Office to
sell them unrationed. The dealer
must apply for the release of these
faetorv - damaged shoes before
Aug. 31, but there is no time limit
on the sales after the dealer has
received the OPA non-rationed
stickers and attached them to the
shoes.

approved a 1944 production quota
of 5,000, of which more than 2,400

What a 4-H Club Daughter
Taught a “War Worker” Father
GASOLINE FOR THOSE
ON FURLOUGH
Members of the Armed services
will get a gallon of gasoline for
each day of their leave or furlough
up to 30 gallons, according to a
new Office of Price Administra-
tion policy. No ration will be gran-
ted for passes, for liberties or for
jty daughter Helen came home the other day
JyJL with the nicest dress she’s ever had. She made
it herself, as a 4-H Club project. I was mighty proud,
and told her so.”
" 'Do you know what this represents?’ she asked
with a twinkle in her eye. 'It represents $18.75 I didnt
have to pay out of my egg money, and therefore it
means another War Bond toward going to school.’ ”
"She taught me a lesson, all right. Guess I’d been
thinking too much about the things that can t be done
today, instead of all the things that can.”
It’s our part in this fight to keep the home front
going with as little spending as possible, so that most
of the country’s money and productive strength can
go into planes, ships and guns to win the war.
For instance, you can invest in War Bonds the
money you would normally be paying out for new
machinery—machinery you can’t get today. Then
you’ll be ready for the day when new equipment will
be on the market again.
War Bonds thus serve a double purpose. Today they
buy "fighting tools” for our boys. Tomorrow they
will help to "re-tool” the farm.
Thousands of owners and tenants on farms and
ranches all over the country are already salting down
their money in War Bonds against their future needs.
Join them. Put every dollar you can spare into your
future. Do it with War Bonds!
YOU NEVER GET LESS THAN YOU LEND! And
you cab get more than you invest. When
held 10 years, Series E War Bonds yield
2.9% interest compounded semi-annually.
You get back $4 for every $3.
Of course, no one should cash a Bond
unless he has to; but if an emergency comes
along, Uncle Sam will redeem them in cash—
at full purchase price—any time after you’ve
held them 60 days. BUY WAR BONDS!
