VOLUMN
McCRORY, ARKANSAS, FRIDAY, APRIL, 30,
carl-lee for judge.
t nur anouncement colum
^readers will note this
the authorized an
^cement of Hon. E M.
T pe of Augusta who is
candidate for the office of
niinlv and probate judge,
: ject to the . action of the
Democratic primary which
.^11 be held in August.
’ Hr Carl-Lee needs no in
troduction to our voters who
have already honored him
vvith the offices of represen
tative and state senator and
who also sent him to Little
Rock to renresent us in the
Constitutional Convention.
Elmo Carl-Lee is a man
who goes before the people
and tells them what he ex
pects to do in their behalf,
j elected, and does it. He
has never forgotten a promise
of this kind and although he
l as been in the thickest of
the fray in some of the hot
+?st campaigns with some of
the strongest opposition a
man could meet, not once has
any candidate or political
henchman attempted to at
tack his official record as a
public servant of the people.
Woodruff County was ably
represented during his terms
of office and we believe he
will make Woodruff County
an able and efficient county
and probate judge.
The suject of this sketch
was born and reared in
Woodruff County, his father,
the late Judge Ed S. Carl
Lee, having been one of the
pioneers of this section. Mr.
Carl-Lee is one of the best
lawyers in Eastern Arkansas
and enjoys the friendship of
hundreds of voters through
out the county who always
stay with him.
We feel no hesitancy in
saying that, if elected, Elmo
Carl-Lee will set a new. record
as county judge and one
which will be difficult for
those who may follow to
excel. We know that he can
look after the expenditure
of thousands of dollars of the
peoples taxes much to their
interests and wre believe he
will do so. We ask that you
carefully consider his claims
before casting your vote for
°ne to fill this important
office.

Mr. Degenhardt is the kind of
man whose hand we are al
ways glad to shake. He is
ever ready to help in any pro

more citizens of his calibre
we could have the schools,
L’cads, drainage and- other
benefits which go towards
making a country worth
while and a desirable place
in which to live.. Possessing
the many young ideas that
he does, we wTould be glad to
welcome this gay bachelor as
a resident of McCrory and
since this year is divisable by
four and our girls are as
charming and vivacious as
they make ’em, who can say
but that he may at least spend
a part of his life in Sunny
Dixie. Who knows?
