Wonder if we are not all weary of the singing ada BME burst upon us every time we go near. the family. radio. ‘It is’said that the purveyors of radio entertainment and the producers of radio ads, rate the listening public as ten-year-olds and act accordingly. Of course, . the child mind lingers many times far beyond its alloted span of years, but some adults have grown up minds and these people may belong to prospective buyers. 'There is, however, a bit of psychology i in the-ginging ad; foolish words linked to catchy music, lingeréin the memory, repeating itself over and over, till -we are literally hounded into purchasing some highly rythmic Jarticle. The only escape from this type of hypnosis, is to turn the dial. The average radio program needs streamlihing; producers seem to forget that their programs are for =. home use as well as for. studio listening. With this fact in mind, they should improve their modus operandi. Take the gag for instance;. read it backward and it is still a gag.

Let's if possible, select men who are capable of leading America through the critical days ahead; they should be “men who match our mountains, men, who think clearly and dispassionately, and act courageously, men whose vision is unclouded by prejudice, bigotry and intolerance; gallant men who are above the uglithem we owe our allegiance in this time of stre confusion. Let’s pick our favorites with consciertious care; their fitness for the highest position within the gift of the nation, lays a heavy responsibility upon their shoulders; take time to inspect this record andi listen to their words. With so much at stake, the franchise lays a heavy burden of responsibility upon us all. —Adeline Merriam Conner. BIRTH DIVORCE ness of which so many former candidates have, been . guilty.
