that l have so many friends who have

appreciate, and I wish The Herald would
convey 10 all of them my most sincere
never know how much | appreciate their
kindness. To the hundreds OF others
whom 1 never before met who favored
me with their ballots l also extend my
sincere thanks, and" she added modest

people voted for me because l was Utah

not want any of my friends to cease
their endeavor to make the carnival
success l hope each and everyone will
do his or her best.
''Oh, yes, and before I forget 1t, there
were many of my friends who brought
ballots to the store after 5 o'clock These,
of course were not counted, but the
ladies and gentlemen who brought them
are entitled to my thanks the same as
though they had BEEN"
