With all my heart I thank you for
giving me the opportunity to serve
you even one term as your County
Attorney. I assume I was not re-
elected because my work did not
please the majoritity of the voters, It
sometimes happens that the duties of
a prosecutor requires him to do
things that many people do not like.
Naturally I regret,that I failed to
please so many of you, but I am not
sorry that I chose to do what my oath
of office required me to do, even
though it made me a one termer.
I wish to publicly congratulate
Mr. Paul Massey, whom you have chos-
en to be your next County Attorney
and I hope he may have the same
co-operation from the Courts and Jm
ries of this county that has made my
work easier.
Let me assure you that I bear no
ill-will toward anyone. I appreciate
the loyalty of my many friends thru-
out the county; I shall never forget
the many kindnesses you have etxend'
ed to me. I have always given this
job the best that that I had and when
you have done that there is nothing to
regret whether you win or lose,

Hopkins Leaves Cabinet;
Jones Offered Position
Harry L. Hopkins, Secretary of
Commerce, sent his resignation to
President Roosevelt last week; this
made the fifth cabinet change in re-
cent months in the Roosevelt admin-
istration. Other announced changes
were the Secertaries of Navy, War,
Post Office Department, and Agri-
culture. Jesse Jones of Texas has
been offered the Secretary of Com-
merce position. He should make an
ideal man for the job, as he is a
busy man of the first rank and is re-
spected by business leaders through-
out the nation.
Electric Cars Are
Being Used Again
Not since about 1900 has the elec-
thic car been so popular. The sudden
swing has been caused by the lack of
gasoline in England; before the short-
age began only two electric cars were
registered, while now the number has
reached nearly a hundred. While one
seldom sees an electric car in the
United States now, there are nearly
10,000 delivery trucks driven by elec-
tric enegines in this country. They are
very economical to use, as each night
they can be recharged for the next
day’s use.

WHAT GREATER CALAMITY
Ever befalls a man than when he
loses his self-respect?
Can come to a public person than in
the loss of his sense of humor?
Ever befalls a home than when sus-
picion is planted under it?
Ever overtakes a church than when
its quarrels get into the papers?
Ever comes to a man than the loss
of his faith in his friends,
Than that which follows the lies a
nation tells to its own people ?
Than that which follows the decep-
tion a man practices on himself?
