Parks Announces His

TerrelTs Representative in the Legs

In this issue Hon. w. B. Parks an
nounces that he is a candidate to sue
coed himself in the legislature.
. Although he is serving his first term,
Mr.. Parks has taken an unusually
high stand in the general assembly,
and is serving on some OF the most
important committees of that body, he
is held in high esteem by his col
leagues, and ilsooked upon as an able
and safe legislator. An evidence OF
this was his appointment on a special
committee to investigate and study
tax laws and make report at the aip-
preaching session with recommended
ton for such changes that might be
desirable.
Mr.. Parks will doubtless be re-elect-
ed without opposition.
