circumstance, fortunate or unfortunate as We
may choose to regard 1t. This that s. Cor
don Cumming challenged Mr.. Pollard TO joint
debate and that the contest conducted at
Lynchhurg and reported very fully in the Roa-

recognized the best advertising medium in
Virginia. 1t goes everywhere and Is read by
everybody. and 1t carried to people who never
had heard of Mr.. Pollard news Of his distinct
triumph. We had the honor OF introducing the
