Why not get your 1936 FORD V-8
in time for Christmas?
THE 1936 Ford V-8 is the finest Ford
ever built. It goes farther than ever
beyond the accepted standards of its price
class. In engine performance, riding com
fort, roominess—it may be compared with
cars costing hundreds of dollars more.
Today’s Ford is backed by over 2,000,-
000 Ford V-B’s on the road in America
alone. Here are its most outstanding
values—many brand new this year.
V-8 ENGINE PERFORMANCE—smoothness, pick-up
and power with proved V-8 economy.
EASIER STEERING the result of two new
roller-type bearings, a longer steering knuckle
arm and an increased steering ratio.
SUPER-SAFETY (RAKES —with exceptionally large
braking surface (186 square inches).
EASIER, SYNCHRONIZED SHIFTING QUIETER GEARS

FOR MAYOR
To the citizens of Jackson. At
the solicitation of some of my
Itiends l am offering for the honor
able and responsible place of Mayor
of your city.
Having been a lifelong citizen of
Jackson, born within her limits for
which lam proud, I have no hes
itancy in sayng I am 100 per cent
interested in her present and future
wo'fare, both financially and mor
ally, because without these two es
sential qualifications we cannot
take our rightful place with the
outside world.
In connection with the experience
I had when serving you as Mayor
during 1932 and 1933 which you will
admit was the most trying of all
years financia’ly as well as other
wise, I now crave an opportunity
to serve you since finances have to
some extent been relieved. In addi
tion to the above permit me to say
that I have had some experience in
contacting state and national mat
ters which might prove beneficial at
this crisis because large amount of
monies are coming into Georgia to
be spent on our highways and other
wise, therefore it is incumbent upon
us to throw down our petty differ
ences and go after that which right
fully 'belongs to us.
Rspectfully yours,
J. L. LYONS.
