day, the thirty ninth day of the COM
petition. Sidney w. Hayes, of 922

points on those above him, and If he
keeps up his good work will soon pass
several of his nearer competitors, un-
less they, too, turn in and work with
the same vigor he is displaying
To illustrate the truth that 1t Is not
too late to enter this contest, The Trib-
une is daily receiving applications for
it's books of subscription blanks, and
it is prepared to issue these little book
let's to all wishing them. The work
is light and agreeable, the special re-

| exceedingly generous, and even If a
| contestant should fail to get within
| the circle of the first ten leaders, he
or she will be amply remunerated for
the time or labor spent in this con-
test. Full particulars of this liberal
