Navidad Philosopher Afraid
A Session of Congress Before
The Election Will Ruin Politics
Editor's note: The
Philosopher on his Johnson
grass farm on East Navidad
probably is unnecessarily con-
cerned about the current session
of Congress, his letter this
week indicates, but that's his
worry.
Dear editar:
I don't know how it happened
and I hope it never happens
again, but this
idea of a ses-
sion of Con-
gress before
an election, in-
stead of after-
Navidad Let's get back to the old sys-
tem.
Both parties have promised
to help the farmer, but if
they're wise they'll wait till
the planting's all done next
spring before they tackle the
job.
Yours faithfully,
J. A.

BF Students Attend
Trinity Workshop
The Student Council officers
of Bishop Forest High School
have returned from spending an
Bayer Reunion Held August 11-13
What I'm
afraid of is it will destroy one
of the most cherished things
in American political life, from
the precinct level to Washing-
ton, namely, PROMISES.
Next to a handshake, I guess
a promise has been the strong-
est weapon a man could have
when he's running for office,
although this doesn't mean a
wife and kids don't help too,
and I'll never understand how
both parties managed to get in
a position like they are now
where they have a chance to
deliver on their promises be-
fore the election. It seems to
me it's undermining the entire
system of politics.
In the first place, a promise
should be dangled in front of
a man longer than from July
to August of the same year.
How much fun would kids get
out of Christmas if they didn't
start wishing till Christmas
Eve ?
A man lives on promises, at
least us farmers do. Pick out
any year you want to, and if
the average farmer hadn't
thought the next one wasn't
gonna be better than that one,
you wouldn't have much farm
population left, or any crops.
The same is true of politics.
The very least a voter can do
is enjoy a set of promises from
convention time in the summer
to legislating time along in ear-
ly spring of the next year,
but this idea of promising in
July and dashing hopes in Aug-
ust, takes all the fun out of
life. If a man can't dream of a
better life, of more aid and few-
er taxes, longer than two or
three weeks, reality will get
him down and politics will be-
gin to lose its appeal. It's the
craziest thing I ever heard of,
trying to deliver on a set of
promises before the people
have a chance to vote on you.

Harvest cotton faster
with a new John Deere
Stripper
U
For really fast, clean harvesting of
stripper cotton, you just can't go wrong
with the new John Deere 77 Stripper.
You can wade right through the heav-
iest irrigated cotton. You can work at
speeds up to 6 mph. You save more cot-
Son, and put less trash in" the trailer.
The 77 has a new auger and paddle
system which keeps cotton moving into
wide conveyors. Positive chain drive
keeps you going. Open rod grates drop
trash on the ground. Sealed bearings
eliminate greasing.
We know this equipment can cut
costs for you. Stop in or give us a call,
and let's talk it over.
