/Farber Mo-, Jan. %, 1919.
To Whom It May Concern:
This is to certify that have known
w. T.. Hankins for the past four years.
During the time was Superintendent
of the schools at Exeter, l had oppor-
tunity to know Mr.. Hankins as
school man. do not call him per-
feet; he like the rest of US, has his
faults but his merits far over shadow
his faults.
Mr. Hankins has done more for the
weak school than any one whom |
know in South Missouri. There are
more children using free text books in
Barry County than any county | know.
Every advantage that could be brought
to the county has been pushed to its
limit by Mr.. Hankins. Teachers and
pupils always welcome him when he
visits their school. He makes no dis
tinction between rich or poor, dull or
bright. He has a good word for all.
NV advice to the voters of Barry
county is to be sure you are getting a
better horse before you trade.
Yours for good schools,

Dear Sir-A Barry County paper
having accidentally fallen into my
hands l noticed that my old friend, w.
S. (Bill) Hankins, is again going to be
a candidate for County Superintendent
of schools. The only thing | am sorry
of is that | am not in the county to
help make the vote for him a little
larger.
am really serious in what | say
about this matter. | was teacher ir
the county for two years and learned
to think a great deal of the man. He
has what | shall call, for lack of {
better name, innate ability as a schoo
man. Besides this he knows th'
people, knows the teachers and NOR
important than these he knows thu
children of every community ant
their educational needs.
l have no more interest in his re
election than l have interest in tn
welfare of any other good FRIEND.
do not know whether he is t.
have an opponent or not. If he ha
not, his election is certain. If he ha
an opponent, I should be more con
cerned than ever in hoping my man
friends in Barry county will kindly re
member me by voting for my frien
l"Bill".
Very sincerely,
L. H. COWARD,
