"That's it gotta get a pint of Bardahl," said he, heading for the liquor store. Vol ume XXII This is the week that most newspapers spend a lot of time and space urging everyone to vote next Tuesday, because some folks just neglect to go to the polls. If they had moved to another state and COULDN'T vote for a while, we bet they would be anxious to cast their vote. We know whereof we speak, because next Tuesday will be our first opportunity to vote in Utah. It takes a year to gain residence in a new state, and in Utah it takes 0 days in the precinct. By moving early in September, we fouled up any chances to vote in the primary, and are eligible for the general election "by the skin of our teeth." We hadn't had a chance to vote for anything or anyone since a school board election in May, 1954, back in Minnesoea. A lot of folks who are "too busy" to register or vote would likely get over the idea if they were placed in the position of having a hot political campaign going on around them and found themselves ineligible to cast a ballot H ' 2 .4 1 4 f. -- M w I f, f m. jr ., k Number 44 r Single Copy Subscription, $2.50 per year by mail Published Every Friday at Midvale, Utah Paintings on Shop Windows ' .r . , t - -- i AST' I i -1 1 S-i- J irrl First' prize of $15 went to this Halloween cartoon in the annual Chamber of Commerce window painting contest in downtown Midvale.

Ray Ertman is chairman of this affair, which set out last year to make Midvale the "City of Lights." Ertman hopes to have twice as many lights and every home in the city decorated this year. The contest will be conducted in much the same manner as last year, with prizes for the best street and for the best individual homes. So right now is the time to start planning your Christmas decora tions . . . remember how busy everyone always is when the Yule- tide rush is on! ' - , ' 'A.
