and consequently the enthusiasm of

lady could today pick up the threats
OF her campaign and by systematic
work from now on until the close, no
doubt win one Of tie capital prizes.
All this goes to show how easy 1t is
for one to lose the lead by few days

There are three days left, after to-

contest. Time enough to accomplish
wonders If you want to win. The
greatest trouble is with a great ma
1ority of the candidates, they do not
aim high enough. Their aim does
not do the value of the prizes TO be
won justice. When you stop to thiuk
of it, isn't it really absurd to imagine
for a minute that a few dollars in
subscriptions will win the thousand
dollars, or the five hundred, or even
the larger district prizes?
The prizes arc very valuable. Valu-
able enough to some of the candi-
dates to feel that they are worth the
effort of lifetime, and many of tire
candidates are going about it. with
this high Wow in mind. They realize
that many people. in fact, over half
the people in the United States, work
e whole year for less than the vaIue
of the first capital prize. Is 1t any
wonder then that these people feel
that a few weeks untiring effort will
be well reimbursed if they win the
capital prize, or the five hundred or
Ieven one of the district prizes?

AS the close of the largest votes in
THE whole Golden Festival of The
West virginian approaches, do not
let overconfidence keep you from
dnal victory. Several of the one-time
.saders have been making that same
mistake. or rather they did make 1t
last week.
One or two AS soon as they found
out they were close to the top, sorlc
days ago, seemed to consider that
they had the thousand won, and that
their high standing at that time
would carry them through. AS a re-
suit these same people today are
working hard to win back the posi-
ton that few days of idleness cost
them.
Another candidate whom the man.

big lead UP until two weeks ago. She
had her friends well organized. aud
they were p.ling pthe votes in su IA
quantities that 1t seemed she must
sweep everything before her. All OF
