nothing but the best is good enough
for you, and then go out and win it.
There's no question but that you can
if you will try hard enough.
If you are accustomed to being con-

from this race; but if you are accus-
toned to having the best of everything
you won't be satisfied with anything
less than one of the larger prizes.
