that in spite OF vigilance dust accumu-

It's the same way with the body. You

Yesterday, the sixty-seventh day of
The Tribune's Educational Contest,
was noteworthy for the determined eff
forts of several of the leaders to get
back some of the ground they had lost
during the past week, some making
returns who had been quiescent for
quite a time. There was only one
change in position in spite of this,
for the other leaders who have been
working steadily all along, kept at 1t
yesterday, and the result Is that the
same distance is maintained this
morning in nearly all the positions.
David Spencer, of bloomsbury, made
the largest return for yesterday,
eleven points. David V. Birtley
gained ten points on Rodriguez Tor
first place, and the same number on
Callahan, who follows him. Arthur
Kemmerer, of Factoryville, gained
eight points on Callahan for third
place, David Spencer got two points
nearer Kemmerer and eleven points
further away from Eugene Boland,
who has been threatening him for
fifth place, and Miss Grace Simrell, OF
Carbondale, won back ninth place from
Sidney w. Hayes, who deprived her of
it last Friday.
The special rewards offered for the
contestants in this competition are
worthy of serious consideration by
every young man and woman in this
section of Pennsylvania. No opportu-
nifty to equal this has even been Of
fered in this city before, and it
should be taken advantage of. Less
sthan three weeks work now remain,
and there are as good chances for the
one who becomes a contestant now
as there ever were. Full details will
be found on the fourth page of this
mornings Tribune.
