who get the earliest start will have
the easiest work. See your friends,
relatives and acquaintances and get
their support before they promise it
to a more enterprising candidate. A
little effort now will pay you big div
idends.
In order to equalize competition
and prevent too many prizes from
going to one locality the territory
las been divided into four districts
md twenty-eight townships. The
contestants in the entire territory
are at liberty to compete for the
grand prize, the contestants in each
district contest among themselves for
the district prize, and the contestants
in each township will contest among
/ themselves for the township prizes.
Under this arrangement the prizes
will be scattered over the entire ter
ritory and contestants in every part
! OF it will have chance to secure
at least one of them. The contestants
| in all the four districts have chance
to get the piano, but only the con-
! testants in any district have a
chance at the prize in that district.
So with the township prizes. Only
| contestants living in any township
can SECURE the prize for that town
ship.
No person can get more than one
prize. The highest vote in the whole
territory will entitle the lady who
receives it to the piano. The lady
receiving the highest vote in each of
the four districts will be entitled to
the prize of the district in which she
may live. The lady receiving the
highest vote in each of the townships
will be entitled to the prize Of the
township in which she may live.
1t must be expressly understood
that the lady who secures the piano
will not be entitled to district prize.
The prize in her district must go to
the lady residing therein who re-
ceives the next highest vote. Nor
will the ladies who secure the piano
and the four district prizes be en-
titled to a township prize. The
prizes in their townships must 60 to
the ladies residing therein who re-
ceives the next highest vote.

How to See the Comet.

has been said and written concerning
this particular sky-gypsy. The fact
is this is a dull year for comet

Orangeburg Elks Memorial.

The Elks of Orangeburg will hold
their annual memorial services this
year on Sunday afternoon, December
3. These services are always appro-
pirate and touching, but they will
be more 80 this year. The exercise
will be held at the Academy of Mu-
sic, and it is hoped and expected
that the auditorium will be filled.
The program so far as the music is
concerned, will be in the form OF
a sacred corcel"t, and the Orangeburg
Military Band, which will furnish the
music for the occasion, is now prac-
ticing some very fine selections
There will also be several vocal Sc
lections with band accompaniment

BLEASE AND CALHOUN SHERIFF
Finds 1t Hard Which Of His Friends
to Give Job to.

The St. Matthews correspondent of
The News and Courier says the Cal
houn County sheriff situation Is still
hanging fire, while its people are
wondering when relief will be OBJ
tanned and the tension relieved. In
the meantime, the Southern Railway
is doing a driving business between
this point and Columbia and the Gov
ernor is not lonely for the lack OF
Calhoun guests.
Mr.. H. C. Pauling, the lone mem
ber of the Legislature, who declined
the appointment with thanks, re-
turned from Columbia late Thursday
afternoon and was interviewed by
The News and Courier correspondent.
He says that he endorsed Senator
Summers strong backing of his
neighbor, Mr.. John Rast, of Cam
eron, and that he Informed the Gov
ernor, that he is hands-off with the
rest of the field.
From other sources it is learned
that the Governor balks at Rast, be-
cause of the slim vote he 1.-THE Gov
ernor) received at Cameron last sum-
mer, and besides, he and Senator
Summers are not political friends.
Early in the game as was expected,
the Governor positively stated that
none but my friends would secure
the plum. This county is expecting
him to do his duty and give it a
sheriff who will walk worthily in the
shoes of his efficient and valiant pred
ecessor.

"A prize voting contest of great
liberality is announced today by The
Times and Democrat for the purpose
of securing the cooperation of all Its
readers in increasing it's already large
subscription list and enlarging it's
wide sphere of usefulness. Never be-
fore have the people of this section
had the opportunity of winning. such
big rewards for easy amid pleasant
work.
The grand prize that The Times
and Democrat offers is a big induce
nlent of itself, but in order that ev-
eryone may have chance, the ter
tional prizes are offered in each dis
tr:cts, and into townships, and addi-
tional prizes are ogered in each dis
trict ahd each township in Orange
burg and Calhoun Counties whose
aggreate vote amounts to 100000 or
over.
Any lady or girl can enter the con-
test and compete for the thirty
prizes, provided they live in either
Orangeburg Or Calhoun County. All
who enter stand chance of secur-
ing one of bhe valuable prizes. 1t
is strictly a competitive contest in
which there will be no element Of
luck or chance, and the result will
ldGpend entirely upon the efforts Of
each contestant.
A committee Of prominent citizens
will be chosen to count the votes and
award the prizes. The motto of this
contest will be a square deal to each
and every contestant who enters and
each one will be absolutely sure of
getting fair and impartial treatment.
No bonus votes will be given away
for work Of any kind on the part Of
contestants, as we do not think that
exactly fair. All contestants will be
treated exactly the same.
The Times and Democrat will give
thirty prizes to the persons receiving
the largest number of votes in the
contest. TO enter this friendly
struggle and win one of the prizes
will not cost you one cent. 1t will
cost nothing to enter, it will cost
nothing to stay in the race and 1t
will cost nothing to win. The prizes
will be worth many times the amount
that could be earned in a similar
space of time by any other means.
The object of the contest is to Sc
cure subscriptions to The Times and
Democrat. The candidates securing
the most votes will take the prizes.
The way 10 secure votes is to get
your friends and neighbors to pay a
subscription to The Times and Demo-
crat. Candidates can secure sub
scriptions anywhere in the United
States and are not confined to their
own district. Write to your friends,
no matter where they live.
Cut out a nomination or informa-
ton blank and mail it to the contest
department and we will be glad to
send a representative to fully explain
the terms of the contest, and if you
decide to enter, supply you with a
receipt book and all necessary in
formation. Or better still, come to
the contest department yourself and
have talk with the manager.
The few weeks Of the contest will
pass quickly, and if you want to be
sure of the piano or one of the other
big prizes, an early start is advisable.
Get your friends to help you. Those

ANSWER:
We do not breed Brown Leghorns
any more. but you can get good
ones from the advertisers in The
Journal; also day-old chicks from
these advertisers.
You have done we'll with your
fowls. which shows what can be
done If you will give them care and
attention.
The comb of the Leghorn does not
amount to very much. 1t is only
valued at 10 points. If you have a
good laying strain that is strong
and vigorous. you should look at the
utility end of it instead of the fancy
points. and as a rule that is where
the money comes from. The actual
earning capacity of the hens we
must look to for our revenue and
that, above all things, should be
the first in sight. However, ii is of
course wise to breed them just as
near the standard requirements as
it is possible TO get them.
Am glad your fowls have given
you both health and profit. There
are thousands of people who would
be much better off. and would have
to take less medicine. If they would
get out and take constant exercise
among their fowls. Chickens are
one thing that will surely keep you
on the move If you win give them
the attention that they should have.
/ know OF many others who have
been restored to health. directly
caused from the constant care of
their fowls. that were (before
keeping fowls) in bad shape physi-
cally.
