Changes in
Polling Places

o
1t is the constant aft of the EIec-
ton Commissioners office to main
tain the various polling places at
the same locations for each success
sive election so that the voting
public may know where to vote
without the necessity Of inquiring
at each election for such informa-
ton. Where changes in polling
places are necessary. postal card
notices advising Of such changes
are mailed to each house number Of
which the Election Commissioners
office has record in the voting dis
trict affected. These cards will be
mailed in the next few days.
On election day all our telephone
lines are in continuous use and the
demand for this kind of informant
ion is SO great that it Is impos-
sible to install enough telephone
lines and train sufficient number Of
map experts. for a single DAYS en-
p%loyment, to handle the hundreds Of
telephone calls that swamp this OIL
flee.
We therefore respectfully urge
voters who have changed their res
idence sine the last lection or Nov
mber 4, 1914. to ascertain from their
neighbors. residing in the same
block and on the same side of the
street, the location of the polling
place for that particular district.

factory method than waiting Until

Commissioners office.
