CORNER
— By J.F.T.
The Primary Election is over and
the Run-Off is near. There was
good interest in the Primary, but
not enough. For one reason or an-
other, less than 75 percent of the
people in this county voted.
How can we prove to the world
that Democracy works, when we
are not living the part? If you fail-
ed to vote due to inconvenience,
this bit is particularly dedicated.
Regretfully, we see that there
were enough votes that did not go
to the polls to make a difference in
almost any race in the county. It
is not a true referendum without
participation. Make your plans
no v to vote in the run-off. You
will have several hotly contested
races on which to ballot June 2.
Have your say in government . . .
vote!
—tee—
We know that many of you were
here with us Saturday night at the
office to get the election returns.
The long wait was tough on every-
one and it was past 2 o’clock in the
morning before we were able to
furnish the Te*as Election Bureau
with the complete results of the
county voting.
It seems that several of our pre-
cinct election judges failed to
make necessary preparations to
count the long ballot. This delay
is not warranted, especially since
counting could have been under-
way during the day. When swamp-
ed with voters at the last minute,
it is rather hard to catch up.
—1#<—
We express our appreciation to
the City of Sinton for blocking off
the street iA front of the office, to
Central Power and Light Company
for hooking up the electric lights
for us and to the Sinton Volunteer
Fire Department for the use of
the sound truck. We appreciated
their contribution toward making
the election party a success and
we know that the people that
turned out to see the returns ap-
preciated it as well.
TO BEGIN SOON-
Absentee
Balloting
If you are planning to vote ab-
sentee in the June 2 Democratic
Run-Off Primary, you may have
to wait until May 18, since official
ballots will not be available in the
county clerk’s office until after
certification by the Slate Demo-
cratic Executive Committee.
Frederic Johnson, county Dem-
ocratic chairman, said today that
certification of the candidates to
be placed on the second primary
ballot may not be received until
May 16 or 17 and cannot be turned
over to the printer until that time.
Upon completion of the printing,
ballots will be turned over to the
county clerk for absentee voting.
The date is not certain, Johnson
said, but it should be some time
next week, he added, probably on
May 18.
Absentee balloting will then con-
tinue through May 29, three days
prior to the June 2 primary. The
election code states that balloting
will begin on May 14, but with no
official ballots for use, there will
be no balloting, Johnson added, un-
til certification is received from
Austin.
Candidates will maintain the
same order on thfe Second Primary
ballots, he added, with only those
names being withdrawn which fail-
ed to receive adequate votes to
qualify for the run-off.

Ritual.

The history of Church architec-
ture goes far back. One of the ear-
liest recorded church buildings
was that directed to be built by
Emperor Constantine in the fourth
century. He was the first of the
Roman emperors to become a
Christian; and with him the perse-
Tution of the Church ceased.
Church buildings began to spring
up in Christian communities An
early form of church architecture is
the Bizantine, a mixture of Greco-
Roman and Oriental structural
lines. A purely Roman form of
architecture was also developed for
church buildings. It is recognized
by the half-circle arches thqt sur
mount passages and openinj
the structure.

for its high, elaborte spires, and
