The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1917-05-25

The closing this week of the big
extra vote offered on each ten dollar
club, added to the possibility this OPP
%portunity presents each candidate for
securing the necessary votes, in which
to claim the double trip, offered in
The Seninel and News-Scimitar's
tour campaign, is making this a busy
week for all candidates. Young Ia
dies in several of the adjacent towns,
as well as a number residing on ru-
raj routes, are fully aware of the OPP
portunity, and judging from the vote
polled this weew, they will be among
the milan producers at the close of the
campaign on July 7th.
Special Notice.
The 100000 extra votes given on
each ten dollar club is good only up
to and including this coming Satur-
day. Never again during this cam
paign, will as many extra votes be
given on subscription clubs and the
candidate who realizes this will in
all probability be the successful one.
Make the few remaining days OF this
week ones of energetic effort and
thereby handicap your less ambitious
competitor.
The Extra Trip.
Do not overlook the possibility OF
securing two trips instead Of one.

For, early did | realize that out of

therefore | brough him up
To be about as useful as a speckled

So let this cruel wal be fought by

Let them get shoulder callouses from

hind the flag to trudge.
And eat coarse food when he is used
to matted milk and fudge.
l didn't raise by boy to be a soldier
rough and bold;
To call a dirty tent his home and
sleep out in the cold;
To have his epidermis shrunk by
evening dews and damps;
His obligatory senses dulled by awful
smells of camps;
To do without his manicure. also
without his cane;
