HCThere! I’m your friend, Delmas (Mike) Bollenbacher, your Adams county commissioner, third district, representing southern Adams county!

My reelection means a continuation of sound, practical responsible government... I promise to use my past experience to the best advantage for Adams county, if elected to a second term. Your Democratic Friend: “Mike” Bollenbacher Pol. Advt. RICHARD F. LINN ■ ■ ■ A Ihv CANDIDATE FOR COUNTY CORONER o QUALIFIED I have served as deputy coroner for the past 2 years.
