Yesterday was the fortieth day of
The Tribune's Educational Contest,
and for the first time since its begin
ming there was a change in the lead
er occupying second place. David v.
Birtley, OF 1O3 West Market street,
who has been working assiduously of
late, succeeded in bringing in enough
points yesterday to take the position
80 long held by oliver Callahan, and
now leads the latter young man by
two points. AS Callahan is also an
ambitious and enthusiastic worker.
Mr.. Birtley will have to keep right
on Saving wood" to maintain his
present standing. Charles Rodriguez
still heads the list OF leaders, while
David C. Spencer. of Bloomsbury, who
is now in fourth place, Is close enough
TO those above him to overcome their
advantage by an earnest effort.
Below Mr. Spencer the leaders are
pretty well punched, only a few points
separating the contestants from NTH
to thirteenth places, and changes in
their standing are liable to occur
daily. 1t will be interesting to watch
the record and note the degree Of zeal
displayed by the contestants as at
tested DN lntlT rise III lne pIllllcu
turns from day to day.
To the young men and women who
have been cosiderlng whether to en-
ter this contest at this time. we would
say, by all means try your powers OF
persuasion on your friends as means
OF obtaining your own advancement
1t is not too late now to begin Per-
haps it may be necessary to score only
a few points in order to obtain one of
the special rewards, and 1t may be
that some OF those who are hesitat-

top of the list If they only bent their
energies to work with as much enthus-
iasm as they now display in seeking
