In this city the polls had hardly

in every direction after voters and
bringing them into the polls.
The voting place itself, which had
been arranged in the store room for

candidates working like a hive OF

BIG CONTEST
IS NOW ON
GREAT ENTHUSIASM SHOWN
BY EVERYBODY
Contestants in Every Department are
Working Hard for the Prizes-lr1-
dividual Prizes to be Given Those
Who Lead on July 9th

The Times issue Of last Saturday,
announcing The Times Working
Girls Contest, had hardly reached
the streets before 1t struck the popu
lar wave OF enthusiasm of the people,
and the demands for extra copies Of
the paper came from every source.
The result was that a little past
noon, Monday, not a copy Of The
Times was left in the office except
the two on file and we had two par
ties who tried to buy the coupons ont
of these.
This goes to show that the whole
city is interested in its true deserving
young ladies, who have to toll from
morn till night to aid in the sup
port of home and the education and
care of self.
Again, from a glance at the names
OF the favorites who have been placed
in the race by their friends and the
votes that they have each received
it shows that a fight is ON for the
coveted prizes, and at this early day
no one can pick a winner.
To all of the contestants and their
friends, let us tell them not to be-
come discouraged. 1t has often been
the case in similar contests as in
other 1ife's battles, "the last has IN
the end of the fight been crowned the
victor while the first has1ost hope
and lost the prize. 1t is the man or
woman in this life who never loses
hope when the hour is dark, but keep
fighting bravely on, conquering each
barrier as it appears in their pathway
10 success until, in the end, they
reach the goal of their ambitions.
Tn this trip contest now OH every
girl in the race today has the same
chance. There are no favorites VIII
the management of The Times. The
young ladies who receive the most
votes will receive the prizes, which
we desire to say now will be made
as pleasant and as enjoyable as mon
ev can make them. Again, if any
contestant wishes any information OF
desires any questions answered they
can come to this office or call up the
Times Jamestown Manager over tht
phone (No. 26o) and he will taxi
pleasure IN answering
We will also give those who desire
the names of ut1r subscribers so they
can get their renewals and the names
of merchants and residents in ths
CITY who are not on our list so they
can secure them and get the votes.
Another way is that they can Sc
cure small or large ads from the
merchant friends with little solicit
ing which will help increase their
number OF votes and at the same time
educate him (the merchant) how &c
sell more goods.
These same merchants need sta
