Pony Boys Must Hustle

These are the harvest days for pony
votes. Are you workingi You will
never have a better chance to win. Do
not let day slip by. Do not wait
until tomorrow or next day, but keep
right on hustling. Get right after your
friends and line them up to save pony
votes for you.
Explain to them how pony votes are
to be had and how to get them. You
will be surprised how many votes you
can roll up by persistant effort. Your
friends and neighbors will have to trade
somewhere and it will cost them no
more to trade at the Pony Stores and
save votes for you. 1t is not hard to
gather up Pony Votes. just take
"ginger pill and make special effort
during the remainder of the campaign.
People will admire your earnest
work and help you when they see you
are determined to win. Bear in mind
that the only way you can secure
gold watch or the pony outfit is to 60
out among your friends and get them
to trade where they can secure the
vote tickets and then call and get the
votes of them. Every child is going to
have square deal and an equal chance
to secure a prize. There will be no
special vote days, no deviation from the
regular schedule and no favors shown.
II you have not already won a watch it
is no indication that you will not have
enough votes to win the pony outfit at
the end of the campaign. No one can
tell who the winner will be until the
end and you might be right near the
top of the list, so keep right in the
game until the finish, and if you should
not win-go down with your flag flying.

e., Samuel cOnsecrdted
When he was weaned he was present
ed to the Lord through Ell. to be his

Gods Rspreof Of Eli.
Our lesson opens with the declara-
ton that the child Samuel '.ministered
unto the Lord before Eli; that is, he
was servant Of the Lord by virtue OF
his being servant to Eli. the Lords
representative and priest. 1.-The word
of Jehovah was precious in those
days"-it was seldom that God sent
special messages at that time. There
was no open vision''-visions and reve-

1t is supposed that Eli ut this time
was about seventy years Old-some
think nearer eighty. His vision was
dim. He was sleeping in one apart

The latter heard voice calling him.
and three times went to Eli to ask
what service he could render. only to
be told that he had not been called. But
by the third time Eli realized that it
was God who had called Samuel: and
he instructed the lad that If the voice
should again be heard. he should say.
Speak. Lord: for Thy servant heareth."
The voice came again. and apparent.

Samuel at the same time. Then the
Lord gave message to Samuel. fore
