DO YOU KNOW WHAT GOOD
LEGISLATION MEANS ? ?
GOOD LEGISLATION means better roads, better
representation in governmental affairs, better schools,
more favorable taxation and scores of other things.
GOOD LEGISLATION is th^r insurance of the future
which guarantees for all people security and political
peace. BUT—GOOD LEGISLATION is obtained only
by peopto who conscientiously study the candidates who
seik public office, who weigh their qualiflotions and
couragc on the balance with common sense and experir
enre in governmental affairs.
