HOLMAN'S LIFE
BEST ARGUMENT
IN HIS BEHALF
Candidate for Commissioner
Has Hewn Out His Des-
tiny Without Helping
Outside Influences.

When a man practices economy ana
efficiency in his own business and IN
seven short years accumulates property
nearing the $50, 600 mark especially
when he starts on borrowed capital OF
some $500. that man has demonstrated
that he is capable, efficient, endowed
with unusual foresight and possessing
10 the highest degree that something
which puts a man in d class by him
III.
Such a man is A. c. Holman, candi-
date for county commissioner of Dis
lrict One.
Mr.. Holman has lived in Ardmore 20
years, but his work with the people
has not been limited to people who re-
side in the city. Instead he has spent
much of his time with county people,
he has mingled with the farmers OF
the county, he knows their needs, he
Knows what they want, and because OF
ais business ability he is well qualified
10 see that they get what they want
and need.
Citizens throughout the county have
confidence in a. {. Holman as a citl-
zen and AS a business nun. They knew
him when he first came to Ardmore.
They saw him enter into Ardmore bust
ness life, handicapped BY Illness as
few menn are handicapped, they saw
him with responsibilities, they knew
that he had to borrow money to open
his business, they knew also that he
opened up his business, that Of Il tin
ner, in the very face OF the keenest
competition, competition with men who
had lived here years and who had es-
tablished business.
Everyone had his eyes on A. Z. Hol.
man. Would he win his fight
against so great odds? Would he jus
tify the faith that prompted u well
known business man TO loan him $500
70 launch out with? Would he sue
cumb to the depression attendant on
illness and unusual responsibilities?
These questions have been answered
by the life and the success of the man.
Always coDsiderate of others. always At
his shop a work, always willing to aid
in the civic progressiveness Of Ard
more and Carter county, never Sinking.
ut all times paying the strictest and
closest attention TO business. These
things have brought success to A. {.
Holman. OF a mechanical mind, he
knows when work is properly executed.
he had done much contract work, and
one OF the big reasons for his success
is due TO the fact that when A. G
Holman gives his word, every one
knows that it can be depended upon
entirely.
The duties OF county commissions
are not limited to the advancement OF
good roads. good schools, and affairs
VI that nature. Mr.. Holman is a strong
advocate OF both these important parts
Of the county work. but it must be re
membered that the county commission
srs practically control the disburse
ment OF county funds. 1t is left to then
10 decide where monies. needed in tn,
various departments, can be expended
to the best advantage and interest L
al the people. Who could be bette
fitted for this particular office than I
man who has had TO practice that sam
Judgment, economy and efficiency il
his own business and has proven by sue
cessful results that he is capable .
handling matters in that manner?
Mr.. Holman Is not just q cold bus.

Aydmore and Carter county. He is no

We can't find q better man. an

fair-mlnded and every person in Carte
county will have their rights and the
needs considered apd acted upon in tn
