Many are figuring over the list
every night in an effort to decide in
their own mind who really has the
best chance of all the candidates to
win the auto. They are figuring by
the aid of the vote list who is the
most likely winner, and friends have
been even known to place small bet
on the outcome. However, such dope
Is OF necessity mere guess work, for
no one can possibly know the strength
of any OF the candidates but the can
didate in question, unless the candi-
date be so indiscreet as to tell some
friend ain confidence"
There are some candidates who are
neck and neck Will any of these can
didates be the winner of the Ford
touring car? There is not the slight
est doubt but what the candidates ap.
preciate the value Of the prizes they
are striving for. 1t is indicated by the
relentless energy they are putting in
to their gathering Of subscriptions.
And as the race narrows down to the
last few days efforts are being re-
doubled; friends are being called
upon to lend their support.
Outside towns are vying with each
other for the honor Of claiming the
winner, and, realizing the urging ne
cessity of haste, now that the race is
about to end, they are pushing their
favorites right up to the summit Of
the vote column.
NOW FOR THAT CLEAN UP
Determined methods are being
brought into play to make an exhaus-
tive lean up" of the territory. In
the country divisions the horse and
buggy ere speeding the candidates
work. In the city candidates are dart
ing hither and thither ever in quest
OF subscriptions.
Late starters. together with sup
posedly inactive candidates, are the
dark horses that are likely to upset
all calculations in the finishing
stretch.
Make these final days the most &C
tive of any. The time is short-only
four more days-yet any candidate
can make herself a winner in that
time. And, then you can reflect con-
tentedly yours was mighty effort,
well put forth.
Think what victory means in this
race. Luxury. pleasure and the best
things life holds out are in store for
some Young women. And who? That
Is a matter that only hustle and organ
izing ability in the next few hours

Many Forge Ahead Late
The battle Of ballots has bee
waged at a heart-breaking pace thes

In Varied Concert.

Those who have never had the
thrill that comes with hearing the ma
tional airs played on bells will expe-
rience that pleasant sensation during

ty. Earl Nipple Is known from coast
to cnast as a postmaster at playing
the xylophone-the wonderful instru-
ment from which is pounded out mu-
sic of wonderful charm and appeal.
Mr.. Nipple also plays on bells, ring

new qualities in the mellow echoes
Of the golden tinkle and clang of the
specially constructed bells which re-
spond to his touch.
Another popular member of the
company is John Elder. While he has
not been before the public many sea-
sons, John Elders name has become
linked with splendid reputation as
violinist, and this reputation has
preceded him to this city, assuring
him of a responsive audience.
Stringed instruments, the woods
and brasses and other matchmaking
parts Of the orchestra are used by the
Nipple company, which is made up
of musicians of note. The Nipple
program has been described as Snap
