Who VIII Be Our Next
Dupty Sheriff?

For the office of deputy sheriff in
Winslow it is understood that
there will be two candidates
Chas. Moss and Mr.. Volmer, the
latter being a Sante Fe police
officer at this point.
1t is also understood that Moss
will be supported by at least a
majority of the supervisors
whose appointment for this Office
is subject to the approval of the
sheriff.
Charley Moss, though not old
in years, is one of Winslow's old
residents and his petition to the
county board bearing several
hundred signatures expresses
the wishes of those who believe
that his experience and wide ac-
quaintance fit him for the office
he seeks.

conservatively represents the general

Statistics show that the average

working, noisily absorbing public
revenue at rate of rs cents per each

Viewed from an artistic standpoint
this picture has worthy elements, but
