The exciting race over the long SIX
months course In The Washington Her
AIDS $4,000 contest is we'll under way.
The contestants are using all OF their
energy in this mighty Marathon. Riv--
airy Is keen on all sides. A purse OF
$25, 900 is a magnificent one. and those
who have entered the race are striving
hard to be among the victorious next
February. when the winners will re-
cetve their just reward
Now that the race Is on and the con-
testants are speeding toward the distant
goal, the question arises OF which Will
win. That is a stupendous question. and
the answer cannot be forecasted at this
early stage Of the game. But certain
fundamental points can be laid down.
and the contestants who follow these
suggestions closely will be among the
victorious when the race Is over and
the course Is run.
Success will not come by chance or
by trickery. To succeed is a science.
must plan and work and make sacrifices.
No good thing comes without sacrifice.
Men who have succeeded have paid the
price. So is II in this great race. Those
who would win must pay the price. Is
the reward worthy of the effort? Every
contestant has already answered this
question. 1t most certainly is.
The price which mus: be paid for sue
cess is industriousness. persistency, and
determination. They sound like small
things. but they are the great forces
which make all success in this world. The
contestant who really wants to win and
is willing to pay the price will have no
trouble In being among the victorious.
First he must become enthusia site over
the proposition. He must become alb
sorbed in the competition. He must be-
come determined to win. and must back
up the determination by honest effort
He must plan extensively for the cam
paign. He must devise methods Of OBJ
tanning votes. He must become acquaint-
ed with the contest advertisers and their
Advertisements. In other words he must
be industrious. He must visit his friends
and people whom he would like to be his
friends. He must give them lists Of the
advertising merchants and manufactur-
ers and request that they patronize the
establishments and products and save the
votes for him. He must make all OF
his purchases at stores which give votes
in the contest. and must buy only those
manufactured products good for votes at
The Herald office.
| Then this contestant who would like to
succeed must be persistent He must not
let his interest wane. His enthusiasm
must increas. every day. He must talk
contest to his relatives and his friends
He must think Of votes before breakfast.
during the day. and after supper. He
| must plug away persistently toward the
bright goal in the distance.
And the person who follows this for
| mula will certainly be a winner. Here Is
the programme in brief:
Be determined, be industrious. be per-
sistent. become acquainted with the ad-
vertisers and their advertisements; pat

CHAPTER XII.

Mr.. Yazimoto, looking more like a
bafled wildcat than a trim little JAP
anese gentleman, stopped in the mar
row exit to pour forth a volley of Sc
lected objurgations, a perfect flood of
remarks, most of which must have
been highly uncomplimentary. Mr..
Kelly pointed a supple finger towards
the blackness that lay beyond the
doorway.

The spells of war having been care
fully put away, and the escort of four
gangsters notified of their duties,
Brockett and Solano started on the
devious journey that was to cover so
large a portion of North America be-
fore it could be satisfactorily com.
pleted-a longer trip, in fact, than the
youngsters had anticipated, and even
more replete with excitement and ad-
venture than they had expected. Kelly,
frankly cordial and evidently wholly
honest in his Intentions, introduced
them to the precious four who were to
see them safely out of Manhattan.
These two lads" quoth MI. Kelly,
"are right people. The best ever, be-
lieve me, and l want you four to look
out for them till they are over in Jer-
sey. II anybody tries to get to them,

horror. sprang back from the table,
and stood Kissing and splitting like
some gigantic cat.
"1-1-you .thief-you big Italian
dog"-he ~screeched, and then came a
flood OF Japanese EXPLANATIONS and
aspersions. His tight hand flew to his
back, and like a pair of wolves Kelly
and his brother pinioned him In prac.
ticed grasp. The Jewish young man
thrust sinuous. greedy hands into Mr..
Yazimoto's pockets, and the packet OF
money, the little scraps Of paper. and
a small, black, automatic pistol. were
laid upon the table.
Better be on your way, Mr.. Yazzy,"
said Kelly, pressing sharply on the
wall. An opening. perhaps two feet
wide and six feet high. seemed to ap-
pear from utter Darkness, and Mr..
Kelly politely waved his hand toward
the exit.
Mr.. Yazimoto was no longer the
courteous little brown man, purring
and soft-mannered. He sputtered his
rage In almost inarticulate cries. and
then grabbed at the money on the
table. Mr.. Kelly threw his wrist
across the brown throat and flung him
back again.
"You car leave the ten thousand,
Mr. Yazzy," said Kelly, while the Jew
ish young man retired, with the sheaf
of money. to the farther corner of the
room. TITS coming to US. l think.
Just charge 1t up to profit and loss,
MI. Yazzy. You'll never dare open
your face about what came OF, and
you ought to be thankful that we let
you go with your life. Hurry along
now, Mr.. Yazzy-and here's a nickel
for carfare."
