IS DEEPLY GRATEFUL FOR VOTES RECEIVED
IN RACE FOR OFFICE OF
DISTRICT JUDGE
With an humble heart I express my sincere thanks
for the splendid vote given me for District Judge on Sat-
urday. July 27 in the first primary. The clear majority,
over both my opponents in my home county of Fannin
proves the campaign issue that the people of Fannin
County believe it their time, after’waiting 40 years, to
have a resident District Judge.
This campaign issue in no way reflects upon the
splendid record of your present District Judge who is an
old school mate and lifelong friend of mine.
I have no established campaign organization, and,
realizing it impossible to see all the voters in both Lamar
and Fannin Counties, I call upon each of my friends to
see that every voter is solicited in my behalf and will
return you a faithful and honest service if elected.
As to my record and qualifications I humbly refer
you good people of Lamar County to the voters of Fannin
County who have given me a majority eight times for
public office.
If you think it fair for Fannin County tflf'have a
capable resident District Judge after waiting its turn for
40 years, please be free to tell your friends and vote your
honest convictions—leaving the name of A..S. Broad foot
on the ballot August 24th. Respectfully yours,
Mrs. Tom Jackson and son and
daughter, J. W. Jackson and jMias
Bobby Ruth, and Howard Harper
of Mt. Vernon, spent last Thursday
with Miss Winnie Jackson. Bobby
Ruth remained until Saturday.
Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Anderson and
daughter, Martha Sue, who have
been visiting Mrs. Anderson*’ par-
ents, Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Wright
of the Bhadowland community, left
Wednesday for their home at Floy-
dada.

M. Womack at Hales boro Wednes-
day and Thursday were Mr. and

instead of three prevents food and fuel waste by
