DON'T MISS THE FAIR Every- one is saying -that it's the best fair there's been foi yeais The mid-way is jammed with rides, 'n games 'n eats (Patronize your local organizations' booths jfirst) The show is wonderful, the ball' games should be good and the 1954 fair as just great Go every day\ PRIMARY DAY is getting close and it is your duty to your county and yourself to studj the candi- dates and decide who is going to be the better representative of ALL the people of \the county. We \ think that Mr. Demo has worked hard in Albany for the past 16 years — for the banking' industry but there are only a handfull of banks in the counly, one of which, he heads. On the other hand, Bob Lynch, while he as never held an elective office, has devoted more time to veteran, civic, fraternal, church and other county ana com- munity projects and problems than practically any other person in our fair county. He will go to Albany as a freshman assemblyman, but with acquaintances, contacts and sterling .reputation of a veteran- legislator. The \way we see Ifc if you want better representation from your assemblyman, if you H ant someone who will represent- alL the phases of county life and interests, you'd, be serving the county better if you vote for Bob Lynch in the Primary Election on September 14th. His is the first name on the ballot* Judge Fred A. Young Seen As Possible Candidate In Top G. 0* P.
