Whoim the gods wish to destroy they first make mad, & good sermon should possess both in- terest and a practical purpose.

Why let the other fellow or the other tional, state and county government you shall have? Why not do your own choos- ing? It is a peculiar thing that most people who do not vote regularly are remiss in that regard for reasons that are directly opposite to each other, One will say that it is useless for him THE KEY WEST CITIZEN _ These memone ot People Can't Be be to vote because his candidate has not a chance of success at the polls, and the other that his candidate does not need his vote because he is going to win anyhow. Such reasoning, in either case, is fatuous, because nobody knows what will be the results of an election. Add together all the votes that were not registered for a candidate, because it was thought he did not have a chance, and they might have beer enough to have elec- ted him. In the other case, the votes that, supposedly, were not needed, might have caused the defeat of the candidate that was “sure” to win. Not an election of any consequence has been held in this country that could not have been changed by the number of registered votes that were not cast. The man or woman who exclaims about his or her vote, “Oh, what’s the use!” is not a good citizen, because one can not be a good citizen in a democracy if he is not concerned sufficiently in it to vote. As a rule, people of that type are the ones who do the most complaining about the way the government, local, state, or national, is conducted, whereas they have no right whatever to say anything about it, good or bad, for they were not instrumental in its formation. So vote next Tuesday, and if you are on the losing side, be satisfied in the real- ization that you performed your duty; if you are on the winning side,, rejoice with the majority in feeling that your successful choices will. promote the interests of your country, your state, your county. AUTO INDUSTRY IS READY “T don’t own a car.” That admission has a guilty ring, so guilty that it must be accompanied by ex- planations or defenses in this day and age when one out of every four Americans owns a car and when no income is too small to deny that pride of possession. This has been a poor automobile year compated with recent 12-month periods, but 1988 holds forth prospects of a satis- factory recovery. From present indications it will be a better year from production and sales standpoints. Of all large industries the automobile industry will be the first to recover from the slump because it helps itself. It is now .completing new models for. the Jantigry and February automobile shows that will be irresistible in ‘workmanship, design, performance and price. There is such a thing as making business, and this industry has made it a fine art. The truth is that our mode of living is profoundly influenced in ever new ways by the cheap, fast, durable and now indis- pensable automobile, What was once & luxury has become a utility. The once com- mon term, “pleasure car,” no longer ex- presses the common attitude toward the automobile. A RAILROAD NICKNAME ] How a chance remark may be per- petuated is illustrated by the nickname which has clung to the New York, Chicago & St. Louis Railroad for nearly half a cen- } tury. p | Opened to traffic in 1882, the road was only moderately successful in its early years. In 1885 the owners sought to sell it to the New York Central and named a price. As the story goes, when Commodore Vanderbilt was informed of the figure named he roared; “I wouldn’t pay that if the tracks were nickel plated.” Later a price was agreed upon, how-| ever, and Vanderbilt bought the New York, Chicago & St. Louis. But to this day the road is known as the Nickel Plate, _—| i | Yesterday’s Precipitation IN DAYS GONE BY Happenings Here Just 10 Yeare| Ago Today As Taken From The Files of The Citizen If you were born on this date 10 years ago, your birth- day fell on Saturday.
