Mr.. THAcKER'S CARD


/ regret to say that while II has
been impossible for me to canvass the
County in my behalf for Register,
owing to the fact that | have no one
who understands the work IN my Sd
sence, as many Of you know, and of
course the office must be kept open.
The stamp act, relating to deeds ard
other instruments demands close 1t
tentiOn, and ! am held responsible
should anything 70 wrong. Yet
have seen many voters and expect to
see more--however, ask the support
and influence Of All those whom I
have not seen just the same, and as
sure you it will be very much aprre-
ciated By me. OF course many of
you know me and know how / haye
conducted the office and the inter-
est ! have taken in the work, giving
it my personal attention, pointing
out any errors which sometimes ex-
list in Acknowledgements to deeds and
other instruments, before receiving
same for record, giving the owners
chance to have these errors correct
ed, as sometimes certain errors rem
der these instruments fatally icfec-
tive. Then seeing when spread Of
record they read exactly as the Orial
nal, and too, keeping the records
where they belong, in this way, al
ways trying to avoid any question and
possibility Of future litigation for ali.
When this war is over, the Greatest
conflict the world has ever known,
there viii probably be more searching
of records than usual, to find out who
under certain conditions is the right
full owners Of different property, from
the fact that there will perhaps be
some Of our noble boys who may new
er return, which thought we bll de-
|plore. Yet we all hope that II will BE
possible for each one to get back
home safe, who has gone, and Are
now SO gallantly fighting; and the
same can be truthfully said Of those
who are yet to go and help fight the
battles for maintenance Of Liberty.
Peace, and for their homes, and onr
homes, and to protect the American
Flag, always keeping 1t floating in
the gentle breeze, the staff ofwhich
is planted on the possessions Of the
United States Of America, IN many
places, upon whose domains 1t Il said
the sun never ceases to shine.
In conclusion, ! wish to say that |
am aware OF the fact, that as an Of
fetal ! have gained the admiration Of
many warm personal and influential
friends, regardless u politice. az
which am justly proud, and that
when on August list you cast your
ballot, ask each and all TO give me
your support. II elected, promise
to give to all the same .courteou
treatment in the future as in the past.
Having had the experience have, not
only qualities me to give as good ser.
vice, but enables me in great maa-
sure to give perhaps better service,
which promise If possible. Thank.
ing one and all for past favors, am,
YOU humble servant

Arnott G.. Jacobs has been in the
postal service almost sixteen years.
He enjoys the work and always man
ages to see the bright side of every
thing. He keeps the other rural car
riers laughing continually at his With
cisms while they are sorting mail at
the postoffice before starting out on
their routes. Their nickname for him
is "Arnica" and it is a source of much
enjoyment to them to get off a good
joke on him in return for the many
that he has worked on them
When asked about his experiences
on the road Mr.. Jacobs said he has had
plenty of them, but that none of them
were worth mentioning. They never
seem bad to him because of his opti-
mistic nature. In 1905 he had to
swim the Hinkson during the over
flow and for days at time each spring
could not cover his entire route On
account of high water
