From The Tailassee Tribune,
Tallassee, Alabama: Politicians
come in assorted sizes, shapes,
ages, abilities and dispositions.
Some are tall, some are short,
some are thin, some are fat, some
are young, some are old, some
are cheerful, some are grouchy.
But they all have one thing in
common, they want to win and
they think they can.
Which brings us to the subject
of the average citizen and the
average politician. The citizen
should be interested enough in
good government to take time out
to listen to the politician’s story
and to size him up, either visually
or orally. The politician, on the
other hand, should face up to the
issues and problems of the day
and let the citizen know where
he stands.
No politician is going to hang
around and bend your ear all day
just for the sake of doing so. He
has other people he wants to see.
He has to sell himself to a lot
more people than you if he is to
get the job he wants.
Our observation over the years
has been that the average aspirant
for office is a pretty decent sort
From The Tallassee Tribune,
Tallassee, Alabama: A writer foi
one of the better daily newspapers
of the nation pointed up a problem
last week that certainly is of con
cern to most everyone, especially
housewives and grocery advertis
ing copy writers. And that is the
tendency to have so many differ
ent standards of weights and
measures.
This particular writer, along
with a lady expert she quoted,
points out that “Some merchants
are weighing the thumb today,
along with the meat” Of course
that has been going on since Eve
shortchanged Adam when she
took the first and biggest bite out
of that Delicious apple. The thing
about that is to know your mer
chant. It takes somewhat less
than an eagle eye to spot a dis
honest one.
The expert is quoted further,
ridiculing the odd weight package
as follows: “Would the consumer
—given a choice—deliberately ask
for 5V£ ounces of potatoes or 1
pint, 6 ounces of pancake syrup?”
We’ll have to go along there. And
we imagine most retailers feel
the same way. Certainly most of
the mistakes we have made in
laying out grocery ads stem from
of Joe. There are not too many
political officers in which the
average candidate can hope to
become rich, even if he is as
crooked as his enemies say he is.
So the chances are that the aver
age candidate sincerely wants
to do a good job in his chosen
profession, even as you and I.
Too many people tar al’ candi
dates with the same brush. That
is not only grossly unfair but it
is stupid. It prevents many a good
man from entering politics for
fear of bringing shame upon his
good name and family because
of the gossip and innuendo.
Soon the candidates will be com
ing in droves. Invite them to have
a seat, perhaps a cool drink of
water, and let them tell you
what's on their mind. You might
learn something. Or you might
impart something worthwhile to
them.
At any rate, be kind to your
tired-footed friends, for a candi
date may be somebody’s (maybe
yours) representative.
And if this sounds like the end
of our political philosophying for
the duration of this campaign . ..
well, it is.
fouling up on whether 303 cans
are four for a dollar or 2V^ cans.
Or maybe it’s No. 2 cans that are
$3.03 per gallon.
“Time was,” quoth the expert,
“when foods of all kinds were
carefully weighed on the grocery
scales with the consumer watch
ing the indicator. Today the scales
have gone. There is no way of
checking those 5V4 ounces, even
if the purchaser wanted to do so.”
And what does the expert rec
ommend? “Legislation that will
enable us to enjoy our traditional
consumer rights when shopping
for any packaged goods.”
And that is where this news
paper dissents. We’ve got more
legislation on the books now than
can be enforced. If you think
you’re getting gypped on the
stated weight of pre-packaged
merchandise you have a built-in
remedy. There isn’t a grocery
supermarket in America that
doesn’t have a scale in its pro
duce department. And all you
have to do is sashay over and
weigh it yourself. Too much trou
ble? Any courteous employee of
any store in the Tallassee area
will do it for you. No more laws,
ma’am. Especially about pork
chops.

MEDITORIAL: The condition
emphysema is an ever increasing
medical problem for reasons not
entirely clear. Many theories
have been proposed to explain
this, but none are entirely satis
factory. However, most research
ers in this field consider cigarettes
to be at least a partial factor in
the development of emphysema.
Emphysema is a chronic lung
disease which produces loss of
elasticity. The inability of the
lungs to contract and expand prop
erly causes them to remain in an
overinflated position. Since it is
a slow process, no symptoms are
noted at first. As it progresses,
coughing and shortness of breath
appear. Their severity depends on
the degree of advancement of the
emphysema. These symptoms are
a result of the loss of efficient
oxygen and carbon dioxide ex
change.
Although I stated above .that
the exact cause is unknown, there
are a few conditions which pre
dispose a person to emphysema.
These are asthma, chronic bron
chitis, chronic lung infections and
cigarette smoking. Uncontrolled
asthma, in particular, is liable to
lead to emphysema. Prevention
of this complication is one good
reason for treating asthma.
Chronic lung infections should
also be treated quickly in order
to prevent trouble.
Since smoking is felt to be a
factor, it should be limited or
stopped by everyone, especially
those with asthma or chronic
lung infections.
Various drugs and breathing
exercises are usually effective in
relieving symptoms of emphy
sema. Progression of the disease
can often be checked by treating
any associated condition (e.g.,
asthma, lung infections). .

MOTH BALLS,
Saturday afternoon in a candle
light service at Aveleigh Presby
terian Church, Miss Dorothy Ann
Robinson became the bride of
James David Maxwell of Anderson.
Rev. Neil Truesdell of Newberry
officiated at the ceremony, and
Mrs. Janice Page was organist.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Benjamin Pendergrass
Robinson of Newberry. She was
given in marriage by her father.
Her street-length dress of white
sharkskin featured a gathered
back with a dress length train;
the chapel hat had a short veil of
illusion. She carried a colonial
bouquet of white roses.
Mr. Maxwell is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Baylis Crayton Maxwell
Jr. of Anderson. Mr. Baylis Cray
ton Maxwell III served as his
brother’s best man. Ushers were
Mr. Joseph Aiken Snead of Ander
son, and Mr. Edwin Caldwell
Hentz o Charleston and Ander
son.
Miss Jean Willis of Savannah
was maid of honor and the bride’s
only attendant. She wore a street-
length dress of pale pink silk and
organza, and carried a nosegay
of deeper pink rosebuds.
A reception at the home of the
bride followed the ceremony.
After their wedding trip Mr.
and Mrs. Maxwell will be at home
in Fairborn, Ohio where he will
be stationed at Wright-Patterson
Air Force Base.
