for the uneXpired term Of Coun-
ty Commissioner made vacant
by the death of Carleton Lowe.
Mr.. Holmes declared, Tax
payers Of Geauga county are
going to be asked to approve
or diSapprove the building of a
county hospital shortly. 1t is
important that the Commission
include a member with t h e
background to advise taxpayers
and the Commission. For nine
teen years I have worked in
the hospital field. Only recent
ly we completed construction of
modern hospital plant. This
was done without borrowing a
single penny from lenders or
getting a handout from tn e
government. I believe in t h c
Yankee tradition Of turning
over a penny twice and max,
ing certain that the bread you
buy for the penny is the kind
that can be cast on the waters
! to return.
Mr.. Holmes was born and ed
uCated in Cleveland. He attend

Dramatic Society and a mem
ber of the Debate team f o r
four years. He was National
Champion in Oratory in 1886
when he was selected the out
standing orator during the Delta
Sigma Rho tournament held al
Wisconsin university.
During his sophomore year,
he went to work for his room
and board at newly organized
Ingleside hospital. He helped
develop the hospital into n e
finest psychiatric hospital in
Ohio and was rewarded by the
Board of Trustees with the post
of Administrator When Ingle-
side started it's Geauga county
branch in MunSon he moved to
Munson where he now resides
From the very first he has been
an ardent champion of Geauga
