young ladies who are apparently re-
posing in quiet near the bottom will
be the one to creep up unawares and
carry off the prize. Such things have
been done and many race has been
lost by overconfidence. Don't let
rumors influence you one way or
the other. 1t is often the case that
a candidate or her friends will hear
that such a one has secured a few
years subscriptions. These rumors
usually are false, as the secrets of
this Office are not aired to inquirers,
and the reports are therefore start
ed in hopes that the other young la
dies of this district will become dis
couraged and stop their efforts. Such
rumors should only be the goal to
better things.
Pitch right in with a determina-
ton to win out and give the one who
does win the contest of her life.
Nothing is ever gained by laying
back and letting some one else pick
up the prizes in life. Nothing like
this offer ever will be given in Sa-
lem again, very probably, and the
opportunity of winning such prizes
should be grasped Immediately and
striven for earnestly.

know they are still in the race. But
| by all means keep a reserve for the
last day. If no one knows how
many votes you have it will be much
harder to defeat you than if you have
all your votes in the paper, where
everyone can see how you stand,
and know just what it takes to beat

The Standing.
The standing of the candidates as
printed below shows a big increase
/ in the number of votes cast for
the different contestants in the count

of their reserves, but others are wise

the ones that will cause the surprise
at the end.

cure ten yearly subscriptions during

fer ballot will be.
Wherever you go you will hear the
people talking about the different
contestants. Where does she stand
today-has she gained that much
and other like expressions. All this
goes to show that everyone is talking
about the contest, and wondering
who will win.
The girl who is wise enough to
realize that a new subscriber will
bring her just double the amount of
votes that an old subscriber does is
the one who will stand a far better
chance of winning the grand prize at
the close of the contest. Energetic
and sure to win is the way we de-
scribe her, the girl who comes in
with the new subscribers.
