The wheel has taken another turn
nd Miss Emile Hayward again heads
he procession in the gold prize contest.
lacred Heart College is once more rele-
lated to second place. with $500 votes

leadership. For a long while 1t looked

,rst prize OF $500 for its library fund

kudent cohorts have a stubborn fight
n their hands for tue remainder or
bis week TO win the big money.
shree hundred dollars would help the
lbrary some, but $500 is what
lrother Lewis wants and must have 10
bake up the total OF $500 that he has
et out TO win through The Calls gold
lrize contest for the restoration Of the
bllege library, which was destroyed
ky the fire Of last April
Miss Hayward, who wants the money
b finish her education, especially In
DIT and music, is making such q strenu-
has campaign for first prize in this
leriod OF the contest that II begins TO
box very doubtful as TO whether Sa-
bed Heart College has as many liberal
hid loyal friends as has the enterpris-
hg young lady from Martinez.
But il is by no means sure that either
fiss HAYWARD or the Sacred Heart in
titution viii win first money. Mrs.
harry c. Deasy writes from Napa that
he has not given UP hope Of being
irst at the close Of the fire period Of
be contest She has not been sending
q any votes herself for nearly week,
cat friends in the Napa Valley and
ther portions OF the State keep her
bore growing. The latest word from
frs. Deasy is. Let others pile in all
he votes they can; they viii have to
bckon with me at the finish" This
lOuld seem to indicate that Mrs. Deasy
Jas not been idle all this time. She
Probably has q nice reserve fund up
Ter sleeve and viii come in strong at
he end Of the week.
CAMPBELL NOT A DEAD ONE
Don Campbell, who has dropped back
b sixth place. also esends warning to
bis rivals to let them know that he is
lot a dead one. or gutter. For a
Feek past he has been on still hunt
imOng the SHOWS Of Shasta for sub
triptions to The Call, and has been

ther Southern Pacific stations in the
iOrthern part Of the State. and prom

lotchers.
Campbell writes that the weather has
teen fierce in the northern mountains
hid valleys for some days past but
hat has not kept him from working to
knd some OF the big money in the gold
irize contest, which he feels confident
4 winning.
BEBERGALL Is A GOOD ONE
If Reuben Bebergau can sell corsets
3 rapidly as he can secure new sub
eriptiOns for The Call he must be a
lery valuable employe OF Joseph Beckel
I Co, in whose service he has been for
bme years. He continues TO put in
bll time for his employers, but during
Dis spare moments rakes in the sub
eriptions for The Cali at a rate that
lmazes his competitors. 1t is no small
distinction to hold fourth place in such
contest as this, but no one seems able
b Gust Bebergall from it. Indeed, il is
beginning to look as though he would

Fas the largest Of the day, and unless
rs. Deasy has very large reserve
lind and extraordinary prospects for
