I maintain ACKLEY ENDORSED BY VOTERS! an office in Brookings and Gold Beach. 1 am a veteran of World War 2, and solicit your support. Elsewhere in this issue appears an advertisement, paid for by a group of Curry county citizens, urging election of Ed Ackley for district attorney. Until the appearance of this advertising, the Pilot had remained neutral in this matter, but now, after hearing the side put forth by these voters, has swung around to the election of Ed Ackley, which name must be written in on the blank line just beloy "22” For District Attorney, as it will appear on the ballot. From the mouths of many of these electorate come convincing reasons for this move. More than 500 Curry county voters who en dorse Ackley, must have valid reasons for so doing. These electors come from both Democratic and Republican ranks, many from each section of the county, so it is definitely not a clique. For as many reasons are names appear on this advertisement, the Pilot is convinced of its merits, and endorses this move.

HANSCAM & SONS Pioneer Merchants Harbor, Oregon By Dewey “For the love of singing” is the only impelling force which keeps barbershop singing going —which will cause quartets of different towns to drive Hun dreds of miles to a parade of quartets—to undergo hardships which they wouldn’t take to see a son or daughter graduate from college. Perhaps that is putting it rather strong, but remember last Saturday night. If you were a music critic of grand opera, perhaps you might frown on this effort on part of men, many of whom do not know one note from another, try to sing. I am definitely a fan for barbershop singing, and will jo as often as I can to hear any program put on by the group. I was astonished by the prog- ress made by the local chapter in the past year. I sat there in astonishment as the group went through the songs at the begin ning of the program just short of professional. We certainly are fortunate in this area to have been so inclined. This spir it is one that should be cultivated in every possible way. 1 am amazed at the Klamath Falls chorus. That group has no end of talent and is capable of putting on an entire evening’s entertainment unaided. That is the aim of Barber shopping, I am told by the people who go in for singing as they do. Remember the storm, the haz ards taken by these singers to reach here Saturday What oth er force could be more strong? "For the love of sinking” is a force that keeps men and wom en going against all odds. It is something to reckon with. Forgetting that angle of it —I where could one find better en-1 tertainment than was afforded the people last Saturday! Where except in larger cities could we have an opportunity to see men perform except where there is barbershop singing! Next Tuesday is electin i day. How many of us are going to exercise our right: s as citizens how many of us are going to the polls and cast a ballot for better government, , for our fu- ture happiness? It has often been my experi ence. after talking to a person who has much to say in criticism against state officials or of the laws to learn that he had not voted i^ne cases as many is tut' last couple elections. That is certainly not the American way. Personally I am not as greatly concerned how you vote, so long as you vote. The barbershop group which left Sunday for their respective homes, and who were held up, by high water Sunday at Gold ««uri ^unuay Beach, and Monday at Bandon. | returned through here Tuesday to try the southern way to the inland. The group put on shows at both Gold Beach and Bandon.! Remember the carnival, Nov.' 10, lor benefit of the library. DR. R. L. ERICKSON, M. D. Paid Political Advertising DOES YOUR ROOF LEAK?
