ing campaign. Launching a deter
mined effort to gather votes during
the past week, the league workers
lifted the vote OF their organization
to 512,464. This gives the league. a
margin OF some 10000 votes.
The increase in the vote standing
over last week also is Indicative OF
the determination which has marked
the work OF the leaguers and their
| friends, and the standing today gives
hint OF what other organization con-
| testants may expect hencef0rth from
that quarter. The vote campaign at
the Mary Palmer church has been
taken in charge by Miss Viola
Mervin, president Of the Epworth
league, and George Smith, one OF the
churchs most influential workers
among the younger circles. Both have
scores OF friends and the leagues
votes no doubt will appear with reg
ularity from now on.

Fellows maintain the lead In division
number four
George F. Schulkins, a Winder-
mere.ave., has taken the lead In the
'ace of contestants for the Regal auto
mobile, the first grand prize for In
dlvidual effort, and in mounting the
top rung OF the ladder he takes &C.
cas.on to serve notice on all other
contestants for the first time that he,
too, is to mingle in with the general
scramble for that prize. Schulkins de-
clares that the honk-honk OF that
machine will be music TO his ears
lust as well as to those of any other
contestant. Lewis Kruger takes Sec
ond position In the race today, but he
saws he looks upon that place as mere
ly the coaching line. where one gets

Lillian Kemp. 1859 Hudson-ave.,
leads in the Shetland pony contestant
list, though the race Of the Juveniles

citing for the contestants themselves.
Margarie Brando maintains the sec
ond place.
