an iiilensn e study in.
Here s why: Life insurance not only pro
vides for the partner in a marriage when
death occurs, it can also provide for re-
tirement, even for the education of your
children. And, the younger you are when
you take out this coverage, the less it will
cost you. That's why now is the time to
think of life insurance.

Of Franklin County
I am Jo Anne Stretcher, candidate for District and
County Clerk of Franklin County. I would like for you,
the voters in Franklin County, to meet my family. My
husband, Charles, is Vo-Ag teacher at Mt. Vernon High
School. My oldest son, Ronnie, is a pre med student at
Texas Tech University. Sue and Mark are students at
Mt. Vernon High School. My family and I would like to
extend our thanks to the voters of our county, not only
for your support in the May 6 Primary, but for giving
us the chance to meet as many of you as possible If I
haven't personally met with you, I extend my
apologies.
I feel I am qualified to serve as your District and
County Clerk. I have worked in the records department
of Southland Life Corp, and on special assignment to
the Trinity River Authority in Dallas. The last two
years I have owned, operated, and kept records for a
private business. I am active in church and community
affairs. I am a member of First Baptist Church in Mt
Vernon. I have served as W.M.U. Director and a
Sunday School teacher.
I would like to serve as your District and County
Clerk. I hope you, the voters of Franklin County, will
give me your vote and support in the June 3 run-off.
