Because good Americans all take their politic» and voting mighty seriously. But when the issue’s settled, and the die is cast, they accept the verdict in a spirit of good humor. And that’s as it should be when it comes to any difference of opin ion. Some folks vote for beer as th eir fa v o rite b everage—o th ers vote for cider. In fact, we all have differences of taste in almost every thing! But that doesn’t mean that we can’t live together in a spirit of good fellowship. Copyright, 1948, United S iala Brcwara Foundation
