outside the value of the prizes in this
list is the Importance of showing ac-

no Y reached q stage where thousands
of people are watching 1t, becoming
interested in it, and are going to cast
votes for their favorites. Their favor
ties. needless to say, will be those can
didates who are showing every deter
mination to be winners The world
loves a winner, and success begetS sue
cess. The candidate who is enthusiast
tic and working energetically is going

will work enthusiastically in his be-

half. The candidate who is carrying
on a campaign in a half-hearted sort
of way can hardly expect his friends
to become enthusiastic.
Candidates who show substantial in
creases now will find their army OF
lieutentants growing splendidly, and
with a few friends helping, candidates
will find their totals growing with sur
prising leaps and bounds. Every can
didate shoul realize that 1t is now or
never" Probably that is too strong,
but it is highly important that every
thing possible should be done now.
Candidates working in this contest to
win-and all candidates should be in
to win-must realize that to protect
themselves and insure success they
must get all the votes possible as rap
idly as possible from now on. The
higher you make your vote total go the
easier will it mount to still higher fig
ures. 1t does not matter what you
have now. it is what you are doing
now that counts. From now on all
steps which will add to ones vote total
must be taken. and taken quickly.
Nothing should be left undone which
will add to ones total. No candidate
should overrate his or her own
strength.
Remember, all prizes go for energy,
and energy alone. 1t is certainly
worth putting forth every effort to get
a beautiful $500 home, or any of the
other magnificent prizes offered by The
Herald.

Here is an important point; The
prizes are purchased and awaiV dis
tribution. Wherever possible they are
on exhibition for candidates to inspect
and investigate. If you don't get the
prize you would like somebody else
will, and that somebody else VIII get
that prize simply because he or she
has conducted a more energetic ana
constant campaign than you have.
You can see that success or failure lies
wholly with you. You must decide
whether or not you have the ability
to manage a vote-getting campaign,
and If you have you should use tnat
ability to the utmost
If you are a candidate in The Her
ald's contest you will know that moth
ing but energy counts. If you are not
a candidate you should investigate
this voting contest at once. There are
two months yet in which to secure and
cast votes. and the right kind of
hustlng can secure thousands of votes
easily and quickly.
Until the very last day there is no
such thing as a dangerous lead. Right
now the totals leading for the big
prizes are very small and can be passed
at any time. No matter whether you
are high among candidates, or among
those who have only a few votes, you
should be doing everything in your
power to increase your totals to safe
proportions, and the only way your
total will be safe is to keep 1t grow
ing and growing fast.

There has been recently found in the
wilds Of Wyoming-a section that has
yielded some of the most ancient forms
of animal life-the skeleton Of horse
which seems to have been but trihe
larger than fox terrier. The speci-
men has four toes and is considered
the Oldest ancestor of the horse of to-
day ever found In the western hemi-

by an exploring party sent out by the

be found in the fact that some of the

erty in the forest fires which ragged

states occurred in those states whose
representatives in congress voted to
reduce or at least opposed an increase
in the appropriation which was asked
by the forest service for patrols and
equipment to be used In the prevention
and extinguishing of forest fires. 1t Is
safe to say that the idlocy of this mig

the future It will be granted ungrudg-
