people on the same terms of friendly
interest as in this vicinity, and for
this reason The News contest is in
finitely more interesting than con-
tests of like character elsewhere. Here
every young lady with public spirit
and the sort of energy that counts
in the returns, is something of an un-
conscious politician, or has friends
with political genius. Practically all
of The News contestants have been
brought into the contest through the
enthusiasm of their friends. But the
spirit of ambition disposition not
to be beaten-keeps them going and
makes success matter of personal
pride. The winners of the principal
prizes in this contest will have dem
onstrated the possession of elements
OF personal popularity that would
carry them to almost any extent If
they were running for office. This is
all the more marked in this contest
for the fact that the friends and parti-
sans who are doing the hustling and
piling up the votes for their favorites
have no hope of future reward-except
in the knowledge that they have done
their best for a friend.
The friendly rivalry that has been
inspired already has taken hold on
communities as we'll as individuals
The returns, for instances, show that |
some of the smaller towns are getting |
into the game for their candidates and
are likely to astonish some very much |
larger communities before the contest |
closes. And the vote shows on the |
face of it that none of the leaders in |
the varioues districts are sitting easy
New candidates of great promise are
coming in every day and candidates
who have not ranked high in the re-
turns made so far are turning in wind |
falls of votes that lend an air of sus-
tanned interest to the contest in all |
classes and communities.
The contestants who is far from the |
top in the returns today is likely to
turn up tomorrow with a bunch OF |
votes that will change the face of the |
returns tremendously. Local pride Is |
being stimulated in nearly every town
in all districts, and the short candi-
date of yesterday may be the favorite
the day after tomorrow.
Practically every reader of The
News has some friend entered as a
candidate in one of the districts, and
it is worth everybody's while to read
the terms of the contest and the man.
