FRANK B. LELAND

Frank B. Leland built at his own expense and gave to Detroit
the first open-air school in this country, especially designed and con-
structed for that purpose. Now there are six open-air schools in
Detroit and thousands of cures are being effected so that sickly chil-
dren can be fitted for life's battle, all of which will in time reduce your
burden of taxes.
Frank B. Leland gave years of time to the work of planning and
building the State Sanitorium at Howell, of whose board of control
he was president for five years. He equipped himself as an expert
by spending much time in Europe and America inspecting modern
sanitoria.
Frank B. Leland is president of the Detroit Tuberculosis Sani-
torium, a $250,000 charitable institution in which hundreds of cases
have been treated. He was a leader in raising the funds to build and •
equip it.
Now he has been induced to become a candidate for the repub-
lican nomination for governor of Michigan.
He. is a farmer boy who worked his way through college, prac-
ticed law for several years and is now a successful banker and busi-
ness man.
Frank B. Leland measures up to the standard YOU have set for
the governor of Michigan.
