He gets back to Milford Mil-ford so seldom he's beginning to wonder when his children will start screaming "Mama, there's a stranger at the door" when he comes in from one of his tours. But like Senator Watkins once told Brack Lee when they met at the Milford airport during dur-ing a campaign tour, "You don't win these things easy." If hard campaigning will win this election, Carlyle will be our next Representative in Con-' Con-' gress. He has ample qualifications, qualifica-tions, and now he's doing everything every-thing possible to overcome his sole handicap meeting the voters and talking with them personally, so they can learn first-hand what a swell guy he lis.

And when a tiny part breaks on a Linotype machine, the one-man-shop country publisher realizes re-alizes how isolated he is.

If Carlyle gets elected we're going to ask him to sponsor a law making it mandatory that all manufacturers of printing equipment "store" extra parts T with all country publishers. Well, ain't they got laws favoring fav-oring about every other group? Speaking of "favor" laws, in recent years there have been lots of howls about how much gravy the veterans are getting from the government. We just learned that the World War II Veterans Training Bill, which has cost a total of 15 billion dollars, has resulted in the training of 450,000 engineers, 250,000 school teachers, 400.000 skilled construction workers, 107,000 lawyers, and 17,000 journalists, in addition to hundreds hun-dreds of thousands of others in a "miscellaneous" group. That adds up to 1,224,000 trained men. The value of those vets, now trained to serve our nation and take their places as leaders in business and world affairs, makes the cost of their training seem pretty insignificant, and (Continued on Page l"wo) have set in type all the really local news, we start, this week, publishing all the local and so- - cial news of both communities Beaver and Milford on our society page.

Jack Davis, city councilman who has the fire department under his wing, has been holding hold-ing training sessions and practice prac-tice runs with the department, and it is paying off in efficient handling of blazes. Last week end some packing cases back of the Sevier TV company caught fire, and exactly exact-ly IV2 minutes elapsed between the time the siren sounded and the "first water that hit the blaze.
