struetions With an explanation of how
to include the 25 per cent increase.
The increase of *25 per cent should

vised by the bureau. « .
General Hines gives the following
directions for the use of the factors:
Allow $1 per day for each day of
home service.
Allow $125 per day for each day
of foreign service.
Deduct $60 from this sum.
Multiply the balance bjt'the factor
opposite the age (nearest birthday)

The result will be the amount of
the adjusted service certificate.
As an example:
Age at date of issue, 27.
Home service, 175 days..

One hundred ‘and sevent^vfive min
us 60, times $1, equals $115. One

Richard WHBlflft Points
Importance To Women.
Mrs. J. Rickard Williams, chair
man of the department of efficiency
in government. South Carolina Lea
gue of Women Voters, urges the wom
en to enroll as early as possible in
order to be able to vote in the primar
ies for county, state and senatorial
offices this summer. She points out
the danger in delay in the following
statement made recently:
“Two yean ago letters were re-
eeivlM by the president of the League
of Women Voters from women who
were spending the summfer away from
home asking how they might have
their names enrolled on the club
btjeks in their absence. Since the
rales of the party provide that appli
canto for enrollment shall in person
write their names on the roll, those
voters who did not return home before
the books of enrollment closed were
debarred from Voting.
“The books of each club will be
opened on Tuesday, June 3rd, and
will remain open until the last Tues
day in July. As it is absolutely es
sential that every woman who expects
to vote in the primary election shall
enroll her name in person on the club
book, let those voters who will not
return home before the books close
make it a point to enroll prior to
their departure. Now that the ab
sent voter’s law is h} force we may
vote by mail provided the nunc of
such voter Is enrolled on the chib
hook, and it is earnestly hoped that
no one will disfranchise herself by
neglecting'this simple butfimportant
If not, you should start one. It will help you to run
your house in a systematic way, rather than on the hap
hazard, hit-or-miss fashion.
i
in conclusion* if elected to the office of Mayor, I promise my
wtry best Service.
