TO THE VOTERS OF THE
THIRD CONGRESSION-
AL DISTRICT

| hereby respectfully announce
my candidacy for reelection as
your Representative in the Sixty
Fifth (65) Congress, subject to
the Primary to be held Septem-
Der II.
During the short time l have
been your Congressman, l have
sincerely endeavored to serve you
faithfully, and if my efforts and
record meet with your approval, l
will feel greatly honored and pro-
foundry grateful if you will give
me your support in the coming
election. I Congress has been in
almost continuous session since
you elected me, and duty required
me to stay here, which prevent
ed me from visiting you as often
as | wished. The Ways and
Means Committee is now daily
working on a Revenue measure !;
being on that committee, l must
remain here until the new tax law
is passed.. AS soon as Congress
adjourns, or before then, if public
business will permit me to leave,
l expect to canvass the District,
meet the people personally, and
talk to them face to face, both in
dividaully and on the stump.
If reelected, l promise to dis
charge the duties of the great Of
fee with fidelity, and to the best
of my ability.
From the depths of my heart l
thank you for your past kindness
to me.
Cordially yours,

the common schools of Georgia than
any other has ever done before?
Do you think for a moment that
there can be any tYhth in the mali
cious charges against the courage and
backbone Of man who fought glo-
riously for the South, and who made
the Prohibition acts possible in the
face of tremendous opposition and
threats?
Will you deny to Georgia the priv
lege of having as her Governor, for
the last time, man who honored his
gray uniform beneath the grand old
stars and bars of the Confederacy?
We do not believe that you can say
Eyes" to any of these questions. We
believe that you and thousands of
other patriotic Georgians, will honor
your state, your governor and your
selves by voting for Governor Harris.

Answers to Contestants

Mount Vernon, Me-, Feb. %, 1915.
Dear Puzzle Editor:
AS I understand the conditions OF
the contest, it is the answers which
the greatest number Of contestants
vote for that will be considered the
correct one. Am 1 right? If so, II
seems those who have written in the
past few days misunderstood it.
Please put us right.
II 1 understand it correctly It would
seem to me that it does not make SO
much difference who the judges are
only they are honest and can count
correctly.
That does not seem to me to be the
fair way; for instance, take picture No
1. Shepherds Crook might be what
half a dozen people would name 1t
Then a dozen might name it Lassie
and Lassie would have to be the cor
rect answer, although the artist might
have intended it for Shepherds Crook
Certainly none but the artist can
tell what they an mean and it appears
to me that he should be one of the
judges and that he should make list
Of what he intended each picture to
represent and submit them to the other
judges before the lists are examined.
Contestant.
You have not read very closely the
rules governing the contest. The cor
rect list as determined by the Judges
will not necessarily be those that re-
ceive the greatest number Of prefer
ences. The rules distinctly say that
1.-THE most fitting or most appropriate
titles shall be deemed the correct an
swers. This will be determined by the
judges after a careful comparison of
all titles and pictures submitted by the
contestants.
