Show The Thusday, Dec. 29, 1938 and Government--Yo- u As told by Byrd Trego to A. B. Gibson I This country enjoys a democratic form of government. When we speak of "government" we speak of "you and me" and what we do in governing our Country, our State, our County or our City. We speak of how we spend the taxes which you and I pay for the orderly conduct of government. It is physically impossible for you and me, and the other citizens of this Country, or State, or County, to meet daily on questions of goyernment, or its administration. We elect citizens to make decisions and administer for us. Executive officers, so elected to high honor, assume definite duties To You and me. A clear and obligations to those whom they govern understanding of that relationship is the basis of good and wise government. THE REASON FOR "NOTICE" In corporations, executives must make reports to stockholders at definite periods. Such reports keep them posted on corporation admin' istration and management. The principal applies to government. Under the term "legal publication," government executives elected by you and me and responsible to us for the proper administration of expenditures, make their periodical reports. Tlvwe reports are made to give us the necessary check on This fundamental in democratic government is known as "Serving Notice". History tells us that in European countries and early American colonies the town crier walked the streets ringing a bell before oral public announcements. Later, court bailiffs shouted "Notice" from the court house steps and porches of public buildings. Next, printing was used. Notices were nailed at the town hall. Our lives became busier. The citizens eliminated the trouble of going to the town hall, or other public place, to read the notices, and the newspaper became the most convenient medium' for the printing of public notices in full. And you and I can sit at home and read in our newspaper the officjal announcements day by day, or week by week. Thus e keep ourselves "on notice".
