About Today's Winner
Forewarned is forea::ned according
to Mr.. Heaton. He slccumbed to the
limerickitis germ at the beginning OF
the contest and has consistently sent
in his offerings each day in an effort
to secure the coveted prize. Mrs.
/ Heaton found that the limerickitis
germ is decidedly contagious and also
became n victim.
Mrs. Hcaton tried frequently to oh e
tain a promise from her husband that
he would at least divide the one hun
dred dollars with her in case fortune
smiled upon him. He Is now very glad
that he had read of the experience OF
previous winners and of what hap
pcned when Joking promises had been
made TO members of the family. Con
scQucntly he profited by the advice OF
fcred in these columns and refused to
| agree to divide any prize that he might
! win.
His better half, however, when in
| formed yesterday of the fact that her
| husband had won merely smiled con
| tidently and said that while Edward
| had not promised to divide his win
nings with her, she thought she could
| handle the situation very well. She
added that she would probably make a
! few purchases very soon that she had
| been gazing upon with longing eyes fol
| some time.

sistent effort will receive its reward
| is the third Englishman to carry off the

this country fifteen years ago. He is ar

with the Royal Canadian Dragons.

| army ne has been employed as q clerk
by the Sun ShipbuildnS Co, at Ches
ter, but before the war he worked II
various hosiery mills in FrankfOrd.
His nine year old daughter. Audrey
Is also a real limerick fan. Mrs. Heator
said yesterday that the EVENING PUB'
Lie LEDGER's limerick contest had left
its mark upon the home life of hei
family. since her husband would sit W
half the night engaged in wooing tht
limerick muse, and her daughter would
rise during the early morning hours ir
order to make her own attempt TO VIII
the 800 prize.
Mrs. Heaton herself admitted that II
spare hours during the day she also en-
