PHILIP H. ARMITAGE FOR SUPERVISOR

    The following article from the “Southern City” a magazine devoted to the 
development and progress of southern cities, counties and states attests the 
popularity of Philip H. Armitage present Mayor of Raymond and one of the 
leading candidates for Supervisor of the fourth district of Hinds county.
    Mayor Philip H. Armitage of Raymond, Miss., manager of the extensive 
Gaddis farms and widely known and popular Mississippian, has announced as a 
candidate for the Hinds county Board of Supervisors from the fourth district, 
it has been learned. 
    Mr. Armitage has a long record of distinguished service.  His experience 
as a public officer began with his appointment as alderman of the Town of 
Raymond to fill out an unexpired term. Reelected, he served a second tern as 
Alderman until his election as Mayor.  He since has been twice reelected the 
last two terms without opposition.
    During Mayor Armitage’s three terms, 66  2-3 percent of the city’s 
obligations which he inherited have been reduced 33 1-3 percent and enough 
money now remains in the city treasury to run Raymond through this year and 
the next without any further tax levy or assessment, should the Mayor or Board 
of Aldermen decide such a course to be advisable.
