FIRST Count OF
BALLOTS Will Be
MADE FRIDAY
Bulletins Alaska-Yukon
Trips Attract Wide
Interest And All
Good Natured

This morning was the banner morn
ing In the Bulletins Seattle Ex-
position contest, and the contest man
was kept busy issuing ballots on sub
scriptions and some new candidates
called at the Office and registered
their names and asked for books in
which to qualify them for the race
for ballots.
The Alaska-Yukon trips have at
tractcd more candidates and there
has been more interest shown, up to
the present time than was evidenced
In the Pacific States tour contest Of
two years ago, when the bulletin
paid the expenses of a group Of young
women to the mainland and showed
them the time of their lives. which
went down In the history of the ISL
ands; and the Bull etin never
dreamed Of again being able to excite
so much interest, but II any one
doubts the interest being shown in
the present contest, all they have to
do Is to come to the b ulletin Of
flee and the books are always open
to those desiring information re-
garding the plans in which the votes
are Issued and whether they are all
bona fide contestants.
When the results of the first count,
made on Friday, are published Satur-
fhAra ustlt h. g.. III
and those who have not as yet called
for books should do so at once and
make good showing on the first
count Of ballots.
Mail Orders
Subscribers sending in their pay
ments by mail should always mem
ton the name of the contestant whom
they wish to vote for. and II they
want the votes returned to them they
should also make that request. Votes
are absolutely not transferable and
not good II defaced. All votes issued
on subscriptions are good until the
close Of the contest, and those desir-
Ing to hold them In reserve may do
so as long as they desire, but those
withdrawing from the contest at any
time can not in any way transfer
their votes to some one else. Turn
In your subscriptions now, and the
votes will be issued for same, and
then you may hold back the votes.

wall. and Kauai should send In all
their subscriptions on each mail and
the votes will be issued and returned
to the candidate, and they may hold
back the votes until the end of the
contest. II is always a good idea to
hold back votes and only vote a few
from time to time In order to show
your friends that you are taking an
interest and In this way you will not
expose your hand and no one will
know, save each contestant herself,
waht reserve her competitors have
until the final count is made.

test Manager at once and secure sub
