THE OLD LEADERS
Misses Carey and Curran in
the Lead Once More.
Six Weeks From Today the Two
Successful Candidates
viii Be on Their Way to the National Capitol


The TRIBUNE Office Is becoming quite
a stamping ground for the school children
these days, and judging by the bright and
eager countenances of the youngsters who
make daily visits with their contributions
those teachers who are entered In the con-
test have faithful champions In some OF
the children under their charge.
AS the contest progresses the interest 10
becoming more intense, and before many
days the fight will be a merry one.
Miss Carey still leads in the Pawtucket
column, but Miss Martin and Miss Fair
brother are not far behind. The contest
is young yet, and besides, most + the can
didates are holding back their votes until
the last day. Orders are being received
daily for 25, 80 and 100 extra copies of the
TRIBUNE from friends OF the various can
didates, and this fact shows the interest
being taken in the contest
In Central Falls Miss Curran seems to
be the popular teacher thus far, although
Miss Easton is holding her own, but any
evenings issue may bring one of the other
candidates to the front.
Votes for three new candidates were re-
ceived at the Office today, but under the
rule their names will not be published un-
til tomorrow evening.

floor where the Cashiers are con-
structed contained the most interest,
and for the first time we were given
an insight into the mechanism of this
remarkable creation. Mr.. Brandt
thoroughly explained his invention
and told how he came to hit upon it.
Since boyhood he has been a lover Of
tons along this line have secured for
him government patents on several
contrivances. Having for many years
been engaged in the banking business,
it occurred TO him that he might turn
his knowledge of that along with his
interest in mechanics to good account,
SO his studies at once were enlisted to
perfect a device for handling money.
There were then several devices in
use for paying out money, one coin
at time, but none of them would
pay certain amount in change at
one time without the necessity Of
counting it. His inventive genius at
length succeeded and the fist ma
chine ever constructed that met the
idea upon which he worked was
placed In the Bank of Watertown and
is still doing service there. 1t took
two and one-half years to bring this
machine to practical perfection, al
though the fundamental principles
were attained in five days. Mr..
Brandt has protected his invention by
letters patent for the United States,
Canada and several foreign countries.
