HAPPY HAMPTON
There was an election scheduled
for Hampton, Nebraska, on April 1,
but no election was held. "Wo Just
forgot about the election" says a
member f the town board, "but we
will try not to let it happen again".
Why should Hampton try to re
member the next election? If the
happy town can pass an electlou day
ntthout causing anyone any trouble,
why should It try to be like other
towns? Hampton is certain to have
a boom If it will persist in forgettlu
li elections.
There are folks who would bo
willing to lot the Japanese tako the
Philippines If they would leave Cal
ifornia alone.
