An Appreciated
Tribute
Re-election to a public office without opposition and
without a single “scratch” at the hands of nearly 600
voters is the unique honor that has been bestowed upon
me, and I am anxious to show my friends in Crockett
County how deeply this honor is appreciated.
It has been my aim since first being elected to this of-
fice to render the very best service of which I am cap-
able, to devote my entire time and energy toward per-
forming the duties entrusted to me by the voters and to
conduct the off ice in a business-like manner at all times.
This policy has evidently found favor with Crocket*
County voters as evidenced by the unusual tribute paid
in Saturday’s election. For this tribute I want to ex-
press my cleepest gratitude to the people of Crocket*
County. I am proud of this expression of your confi-
dence and of your satisfaction with the administration
of this office.
I shall endeavor during the coming two years to merit
this expression of confidence and l promise my best ef-
fort during my next term to continue the efficient ad-
ministration of the office and to win your continued ap-
proval of my efforts.
Again thanking you for your support which gave me
a unique honor in political history of this county. I am
Yours most gratefully,

An Announcement
of Interest to Patrons of our Service Dept.
Effective June 1, we are turning over active manage-
ment and supervision of our repair and service depart-
ment to Arthur M. Quist and Louis Donaho, supervising
mechanics, and after that date our repair department
will be operated by these men on a commission basis.
Both Mr. Quist and Mr. Donaho are expert mechanics.
Both were formerly connected with the Dudley Motor
Company here and Ozona people know their ability as
mechanics. We believe that under the new management
patrons of our service department will find it more sat-
isfactory to deal directly with the heads of the depart-
ment wheer the work is to be done.
I his department is thoroughly equipped to do any
kind of welding or machine work and to service and re-
pair any make of automobile. Service rates will remain
the same as at present and all bills for this work will be
handled through the usual channel of the McLeod Mo-
tor Co. as at present.
