The contest manager of The In
telligencer has been asked dozens of
times: Who is going to win the Eu-
ropean tours?" The contest manager
doesn't know any more about who is
going to win than do the people ask
ing the question. He will not know
who the winners are until the judges
finish counting the votes. Everybody
Is getting anxious, but everybody will
have to wait until the votes are count
ed on the night Of April %.
The contestant who does not do
some fine work" within the next
twenty days. thinking she has enough
to win." will regret IL when the final
count is made by the judges. The re-
ward for the efforts In securing new
subscribers for The Intelligencer is
such "A magnificent one that contest
ants should exert themselves to the
utmost. Don't let il be said that you
lost by one yearly subscription! II
you do all you possibly can, and then
fail TO win, you can't blame yourself
you will have done your best"
You may THINK you have enough
DON'T THINK 1T. You know how
many YOU have in reserve. But what
about the others? They. also, have a
reserve.
Get busy-keep busy-until the end
of the contest.
Two weeks from Monday night

gle. when the affairs OF the contest

test throughout has marked every
little incident thus far. and this con.
dition alone has helped materially TO
make II the signal success that IL
is.
