GETTING NEAR THE END
Now Is the Time for Your
Promised Friends to
Help You

"Who is going to VIM" that ques-
tion is put to us every day. Look at
the returns this week and see If YOU
would dare venture an answer. We
do not know who is going to win, the
girls with the highest number of votes
in their respective districts will win
but just who these girls will be is hard
to tell. If you think you can pick a
winner look at the returns this week
and take a guess, for that is all it will
be.
1t is hard to tell just where the
storm center really is. For weeks the
Salmon river contestants have stood
at the head of the list for high
voting and this week Miss Clay OF
higgins takes the lead over Rose
Freeman Of Whitebird by majority
Of 1865. Pretty close isn't it. Now
then you gentlemen with sporting
proclivities, how are you going to bel
on the outcome here?
Miss Stella Wilkins, the mountain
candidate led in her district for several
weeks but is now in second place anJ
Flossie Murphy, the Clearwater can
didate, is but 565 votes behind. Miss
Cook, the leader here, has the small
majority of 955. Looks to us az
though some one had better watch
out.
In the third district Miss Sebastian
holds her place but Misses. Cash ant
knorr are making hard fight for it.
The majority to overcome is small
