Is the largest number that has yet been
enrolled on single day, and 1t now looks
as if the remaining sets will not last un-
ill the end OF the week, as was thought
possible.
There may be many who have been de-
laying a decision in the matter, and who
will now hasten to send in their applica-
lions as they see this splendid oppor-
tunity about TO paTs out Of reach. Yes
terday's increase in applications would
seem 10 indicate that many are now doing
this very thing, and if the increase con-
tinues il may become a question OF
closing the club at any time. Our readers
should not lose sight OF the fact that the
closing of the roll is not matter Of
choice With us; 1T is a matter OF COM
pulsion. Only leo sets could be obtained
for distribution at Introductory prices.
