assn and energy which was developed
is not lost, but reacts on ones char

The Benefit of the Contest.
Every candidate, whether she cares
to fight the battle of ballots or not,
is better able to fight the battle of
daily existence today than she was
when she entered the contest.
/ Though she may feel the disappoint-
ment keenly she must realize that
facing the world does not seem nearly
so formidable proposition as it did
a few weeks ago. Those who are sue
cessful are deserving of congratula-
tions and praise. They have striven
hard, and what they have achieved
has been largely the result of untir-
ing, unremitting worry. Early and
late for nearly two months they have
been piling up the voting strength
a few votes at time until the bal
lots amount high up in the thousands.
They will appreciate the prizes
thousand-fold more than they would if
they had been laid at their feet with.
out any effort on their part, and are
better able to appreciate them at
something of their own value.
Best Of Feeling.
During the progress of the entire
contest the best of feeling has pre-
vailed, and while todays list of win
ners is quite lengthy, there are many
other deserving workers who were
not fortunate enough to have their
names on the final list, but through
their individual efforts have made
such record as to deserve great
praise. To such The Daily News
extends it's congratulations and
thanks them for their earnestness of
purpose and for the work they have
accomplished. Now at last, the con-
test has closed, and it is with pleasure
the final awards are made to the sue
cessful and deserving candidates who
have been chosen by the public at
large to be given the different prizes.
Winners Pleased.
The Daily News congratulates the
ladies', one and all, hoping they will
enjoy the prizes they have gained to
the fullest extent, and that they may
be some source of continued sat
isfaction.
Many letters have been received
from candidates, both winners and
losers, thanking their friends and The
Daily News, but on account of lack
of space it is impossible to publish all
in today's paper.
The ballots that have been cast in
the contest will be kept ten days and
then destroyed.
