How to Win
Tell your friends that you are going
to enter the contest. Tell them that
you want to win the first prize, the
beautiful Diamond Ring, and that you
want them TO help you. They will
help you if you ask them. Nearly every

no reason why they should not become
one. Every subscriber will help you
with their votes if you ask them. To
prove to yourself how easy it is to get
votes, phone or see one OF your friends
and ask them if they will help you if
you will enter the contest, and we will
warrant that four out of every five will
promise their support. Remember that
organization is the keynote of success
in a contest. The candidate that or
ganizes the best campaign is the one
that will win the beautiful Diamond
Ring on the last day of the contest
Phone or write to friends that you can
not see personally and ask them to
save their subscriptions for you and
that you will call for them at later
date. Get your friends lined up in
boosting campaign for subscribers for
you.
Have them tell all your friends that
you are in the contest and they want
to see you win the first prize. A voting
contest is for all the world like an cleo
ton. Everybody has their particular
candidate that they want to see win.
The one that usually commands the
most support is the one most active in
soliciting assistance.
Keep your organization and cam
paign going. We will warrant that
if you enter this contest you will not
regret it on the last day, when the prizes
will be awarded to you and the rest of
the winners. Never before have you

This is the second week of the big
subscription and voting contest which
is being condected very successfully
We have some of the most popular
young ladies of this community as our
contestants and they are certainly
working hard. There is very little
difference in the sanding and it would
be impossible to predict who will be
the winner OF the first grand prize and
be the most popular lady. There still
remains three weeks before the contest
closes.
Several of the contestant have seen
and examined the prizes at J. II.
Crossley's Jewelry store and they are
so highly pleased over them, they are
working harder than ever. There IS
considerable rivalry over the first grand
prize. Of course, the contestant who
gets her campaign organized right by
calling up all her friends and relatives
and gets their promise of support, and
works the hardest, is the one who Will
deserve and win the beautiful diamond
ring.
The prizes are all guaranteed by +.
E. Carlquist, the jeweler, to be Just as
represented, and all contestants are in
vited to inspect them. The beautiful
diamoAd ring and the bracelet watch
are charming ornaments, and the law
allieres are dainty andrich in workman
ship. Read about the scholarships In
this issue. So far the contest has met
with big success and the contestants
are all enjoying themselves. There is
large field in which to get subscrlb-
ers also a lot OF renewals to be had.

get busy and win one of those beauti-
full prizes offered by The Echo.
From all parts OF the county young
lady contestants are sending in good
reports and are pleased with their work,

RECOMMENDATION TOO BRIEF
Public Utilities Committee Wants to
See Data Which Influences Board
in Recommending Unqualified
Rejection of Leasing Proposition.

The Administrative Board voted yes
terday to postpone until May l the
consideration of the communication
from the Council Public Utilities Com
mlttee returning it's own report on the
gas lease offer. and requesting Il COM
pletc statement of the considerations
that led the board to recommend the
unqualified rejection of the leasing Of
fer of the Southern Gas and Electric
Corporation.
The committee, in submitting the mat =
ter to the board for investigation and
report. requested THAI !: be returned
with detailed recommendation. The
board held an extended hearing, and
after holding several conferences on
the matter, framed n report OF three
paragraphs, In which il recommended
TO the committee the unqualified re-
lection of the leasing offer on tho
ground that it was without sufficient
merit to deserve serious consideration.
While the sentiment of the Public
Utilities Committee has never been re-
garded as favorable to the gas lease
proposal the unqualified rejection
recommended by the board did not meet
the views of several members. who in
sisted that the committee he given the
opportunity OF inspecting the data
which led the board to arrive at it's
decision. This opinion prevailed. and
the papers were returned to the boa I'd
Tor report in detail in accordance
