An Announcement To and For
The People of Cass County.
Time has again winged her
flight—1927 has flown aud 1928
has been ushered in-With all her
beauty and glory yet ahead.
Two years ago in the columns of
the press you fonnd my an
nouncement as a Candidate for
the office of County Clerk of the
County. Today you find a simi-
lar announcement. The answer,
your answer to ray former ap-
peal was raost gratifyiug for you
placed your confidence and trust
in me and elected me to the most
important office in the County,
and to me it was and is the most
important of all offices. This by
virtue of the fact that it was the
one I sought and the one to
which 1 aspired, the one to which
I felt called. I agaiu feel the call
to offer you my service in this
important place, agaiu; Hence,
my announcement and request
that you :again honor me with
your ballots and your support in
the Democratic Primary iu July
this year.
A little more than a year ago 1
took the oath of office, qualfffed
and entered upon the duties you
had imposed upon me. This I
did with a deep feeling of deter-
mination to succeed. How well
I have done this, is for you and
the records to say, but may I
say that I feel that I have done
what I could.
This 1 know, that time swiftly
passed by, bringing many new
days and each day bringing new
responsibilities and opportuni-
ties and as each new day has
been ushered in I have felt my
added responsibilities toward
you as a people, and have breath-
ed a prayer to Him who notes
even the fall of the sparrow, for
strength, wisdom and ability,
that I might measure up to the
fullness of life's duties, not only
in an official way, but in every
way, and may I say to you, the
people of ("ass Connty, my peo-
ple, that day after day aa I have
met you, felt the friendly clasps
of your hands, and have seen the
smiles upon your faces and heard
anew agaiu and again your ex-
pressions of confidence in me and
your well wishes, for me, I have
become deeply impressed with
the fact that I am living among
and serving the greatest and best
people ou earth. Public duties
sometimes become heavy, but
as yon have had occasion to en-
ter the office, you have met me
and extended your greetings and
transacted your business in a
way that has made service a
pleasure, and I only hope that
in your hearts that you can tru-
ly say that I, together with ray
assistants who have been so
faithful, to every trust imposed
upon them, have measured up to
your expectations. Should I
again be elected to this place I
can promise you no more than
to say with the past experience
behind me, I shall endeavor to
render unto you more efficient
service in years ahead than I
have in the past. I thank each
of you for your confidence, loy-
alty, trust and help in the past
and humbly trust that I may
so live and act that I may con-
tinue to deserve and receive your
hearty support aud best wishes.
Respectfully,
Lucile Stanley.

tance of a water and sewerage

ly instructive aud well received.

opment of the county, stating
that farming conditions over the
county bad improved fully 100
per cent in the last four years.
This ofjcourse includes home im-
provement and general interest
in farm life.
J. D. Boon spoke on the need

Association, pointing out that
people were being turned away
from our town frequently for lack
of houses.
Mr. Melton, Secretary of the

building. He advised us to do
away with our old form of city
government and adopt the man-
ager system, stating that a good
city manager could be secured
who could also serve as secreta-
ry of the Chamber of Commerce.
Following this address the
president, M. D. Givens, who had
arrived duriug the speaking, ap-
pointed a committee of five to
look into these matters and re-
port at a future meeting.

day afternoon and begau the or-
ganization of the Building and
Loau Association.
If you do not know the nature
of an investment made in a
Building aud Loau Association
the Committee would be glad
that you make au investigation
of all of its angles and that you
then try to help our town as well
as yourself. It will be a saving
to you that you will not realize
how you did it when your con-
tract reaches maturity. You
can buiid a home here and pay it
out like rent. Your help will be
appreciated.
The City Manager form of City
Government was studied by the
Committee and it will seek all
the information possible before
passing upon the question.
However it hopes to have some
information ready at the regular
meeting of the Board of Direc-
tors next Tuesday night.

A Whole Milk Market for
Linden.
On hint Friday a committee
from the Chamber of Comraenul
at Linden met with the Cham-
ber of Commerce Milk Commit-
tee at Marshall for a discussion
of the sale and handling of mi IS
from this leititory, as well as
other territories adj'acent td
Marshall. ,
We were informed of the plansi
for the hiiildi'itf of a milk plaut
at Marshall flflllch will use the
whole milk. This is the charac-
ter of plant that we have beeii
wanting to get located iu thnj
territory so that our farmer^
could.bring their Whole milk in-
to town and sell it. We fouu<i
just such a plailt being founded
and from what the plans show
at this time will be ready for thri
takiug of milk this spring, probi
ably uot later than sixty days.
The price for milk will be on ti
basi9 of about 25 cents per gal-
lon.
These people will furnish ti
truck to come to Linden each
day and fiicti up the milk, also
the ElectricLiuht Company here
is going to furuish a cooling
room free of cost to the farmer.
Of course for all of these to t>6'
accessible it is going to require'
a certain amount of milk in or-
der to justify the expense of a
truck and helper.
So in order for our people td
lindsrstand the vM6le of the pro-
position, the Chamber of Coid'-
itierce hef'e invited everyone in-
terested to be present at tb'e reg-
ular meeting of tb'e Board of
Directors at the Court house

at which tune you will learn all
about th« market and require-
ments. So be present end don'6
forget the date and tell jour
neignbor to c me with you.
