Should Vote Age Be Lowered to
18?
Once again, as election time
draws near, the question of
lowering the voting age comes
up. Like any other question
this one has its pros and cons.
One of the points against the
proposal is that young people
don't know how to run the coun
try. They haven't had the ex
perlence to know what they
should and should not vote for.
On the other side, many young
people begin their working ca
reers between 18 and 20. Is it
fair that they are not allowed to
vote until they reach 21?
Boys usually have to go into
the service at 18. They believe
if they are old enough to fight for
their country, they are old enough
to have a voice in its affairs.
Young people today, due to
more widespread education, and
to mass communication media
like radio and TV, are much bet
ter informed about current events
than young people were when
the voting age was set. What do
you think?

Campaign Speeches

Editorial
Campaigning is a wonderful,
and about the most powerful way,
to gain recognition but are you
campaigning to help that person
or hinder him. You may put down
catty remarks but everyone knows
who does it so what's the use.
You're just hurting these feel
ings. You may be trying to pro
mote someone for an office but
the person you are campaigning
for may even feel ashamed or
embarrased ut some of the re
marks said about their opposi
tion.
Remember the "Golden Rule"
kids and use your heads more
than you use your hands. "Do
unto othres as you would have
them do unto you."
