I WHAT'S GOING ON Political Advertisement To the Electors of the City of Ann Arbor:- As there are but a few days remaining before our annual charter election, and as the nomination for the office of mayor has again been given to me, I desire to call your attention to the importance of this election. Not from the standpoint alone of the office of mayor, but because there are other important offices to be filled, and many propositions to be submitted to the voters which should call for your most careful attention. I would first urge upon every duly qualified elector the necessity of voting at this election. You should investigate the qualifications of every man or woman who is seeking office, as well as to determine the merits or demerits of every proposition and then vote with but one idea in view and let that idea be the best interest of our community.; I have always considered it an honor to represent our city in the different offices of* Supervisor, President of the Council, and Mayor, and in every office I have endeavored to the very best of my ability to give the city the best there was in me. My only regret, during the trying two years which I have served the cityas Mayor, while our nation was at war, was that I could not give more in return for the splendid co- operation of our good citizens. I again urge you to vote upon April seventh and if, after a fair investigation, you feel that I am entitled to be re-elected, I will greatly appreciate any support which you desire to give.
