$910 Flanders touring car-One OF the
best known and most reliable cars in
the country. 1t was purchased especl-
ally for this great campaign from the
Bourbon Garage and is now on
display. 1t is a machine of superb
mechanical qualities and will excite
thesgreatest interest in every locality
where the joy of automobiling is
known. The desire is intense in every
wide awake person to own beautiful
car that means so much personal joy
and for the entertainment of family
and friends. The publisher of the
Bourbon News takes the greatest
pleasure In being able to put such a
machine in the possession of some
popular person in this section as re-
ward for their industrious efforts dur
ing the next few weeks.

beautiful Diamond Rings and hand
some Elgin Watches. They were pur-
chased especially for this great cam
paign from the we'll known and reli-
able firm of Shire & Flthian.

sparkling gems of beauty and the WIN
ner of any one of them may we'll feel
proud of them. They are perfect

liable timekeeper that it is hardly

ber of votes. according to the length

turned in all of your subscriptions and
had the vote published. to step in the

sire. If you hold back part of your

REMEMBERING THE MAINE

How can the yoang American be
taught, best, the ways in which to
remember historical events?
This question long has been a
mootod one in the United States and
only in recent years has the solution
been found The solution is the
cinematograph or moving pictures.
Photographs, putting the person in
direct contact with events by means
OF the camera have impaired the
power to make things live in the
minds of the persons seeing them.
In the moving pictures of the rails
ing of the battleship Maine, which
was sunk in the Havana harbor
fourteen years ago, Cairo has the
first chance of any city in Illinois,
to see this interesting sight. The
work, from the day of its inception
two years ago until last week, when
the hulk was finely foated, is shown
in detail
Every child as we'll as grown per-
sons should see these pictures. The
record Of an event that will be car
ried down in years to come, as a
wonder work in engineering feats
and one of great significance to the
American people, The picture will
be shown at the Cairo opera House
Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday
Of this week. A matinee and night
performance will be given each day.
