Exposition building on Monday night,

soonest lady was to be chosen. The FIVE
Judges were appointed and worked hard
until about 10 o'clock, when they came
together to compare notes and, to their

opinions OF beauty were vastly
different for no decision as

loose TO take further notes and more
critical examinations. AT the close OF
the exhibition in the evening no deci

morning the honor OF carrying of the
coveted prize WAS awarded TO Miss Elva
Wetherald, of Gravel Hill. Hsllaire is
