Now that the smoke of battle has

told you SOS" settled down to their
customary ayocations, one cannot fail
to view in retrospect the almost infal-
lible forecast the Rexall Stores Straw

vote on November 2.
With total of 1,239 $50 ballots re-
corded in the Rexall Straw Vote on
November 6, as early as October Is il
was shown that Senator Harding would
sweep the country and roll up an un-
precedented plurality over Governor
Cox. Figures told this story. From
every state in the Union the ballots
rolled in each day, and as the date of
the election approached, it was plain
ly evident that this plurality, hourly
was increasing.
The Rexall Poll showed that Senator
Harding would have 379 votes in the
Electoral College to 152 for Governor
Cox. The actual figures as based on
the concensus of newspaper opinion to
date, show that the Rexall Poll was

In the case of Tennessee. this is
easily explainable. The mountain dis

they come TO the polls or to attend
court, that they are lured from their
mountain retreats. Few if any had
an opportunity to register their presi-
Dental preferences before the election
and in consequence, this Republican
strength was not recorded or shown
in the Rexall Poll.
In the case of Oklahoma, Senator
Harding demonstrated strength and
popularity in that state which was not
reflected to the full in the Rexall figur-
es. But the vote in this state was
close at all times. In Tennessee's
poll few thousand votes would have
swung it the other way.
The honesty and accuracy of the
Rexall Straw Vote has unquestionably
been sustained by results. Forty-six
states out of a possible forty-eight.
correctly placed, is ample proof that
such poll, taken under such far
reaching conditions, has won its place
in the limelight of accuracy honesty
and usefulness and that it achieved
what no other similar attempt ever
approximated.
In few days an analysis of the
popular vote taken in the Rexall poll,
as compared with the official count in
all states, will be mad. 1t is conf
IDENTIFY believed that the proportions
thus reached will be just as accurate
and just as convincing as the compar-
ative table on the electoral vote.

Mayor Babcock refused TO withdraw

Divine Lesson in

that the season Of fruitage has gone

can only turn away. each to himself.
and measure up our garuerings.
Nature gives US a seed time and n
harvest time
But these would be meaningless 20
- did she not also send . sesson
when. st the warning touch OF winter
cAili. We must measure our gains and
consider our losses.
But for the lessons Of this season
no man would labor :; we would know
naughf Of temperance or thrift: we
would go through the bright spring
only singing. and idle away the sum
mer In dreams-
So Il Ia part OF the divine plan that
each Of us should now go aparf and

chat. the flowers from the weeds end

II were useless now to try to de
ceive even ourselves.
Now. n AZ no other time. We see
the vast difference In value between
the picked fruit and the windfails.
The one heap we proudly stors
away. knowing It VIII keep sweet and
whole to the winters depths. and the
other we cast aside that II may not
contaminate as u rota
II Is sad. sweet task-sweet for
the counted gains. sad for the oppor-

And as we garner the gains we also
