will to win and a little spare time,
backed by some pep and determina

can meet those requirements.
In the announcement to be found
on this page are the names OF those
who have entered the club up to We'd

may choose to enter, no matter how
many that may be. The names in to-

anything.
The first credit counter the first
test of the strength of the seyerat
candidates-will come when the cgsd..

notice, counts will be made each We'd

for the position of honor at the bead

and if you have friend or a favorite
in the race for big awards, just re-
member that now is the time that help
and encouragement count the most.
Leadership is always valuable. but
! it is especially so during the early
days of this campaign such as this.
Many people who have no immediate
relatives or friends in the competi-
ton will be pretty much inclined to
give their subscriptions to the club
member who appears to have the best
chance of winning. So to lead in the
first count will mean to gain substan-
tial support.
Those who have been thinking about
starting but doing no more than that,
had best fall off the fence and get
busy without further delay. The cam
paign is OF short duration Qcss than
six weeks now remain) and there is
absolutely nothing to be gained by
waiting, while much can be lost.
The big moments of the campaign
are during the early days, while big
credits are to be had for subscrip-
items. Subscriptions turned in before
November 7th are four times as valu-
able in credit-earning power as those
secured in the final days Of the CAM
paign.
In the meantime, the live ones-the
potential big race winners-are clear
ing the decks for action. They are
in the race for all the gold and glory
they can get.
With the announcement of the
names and the first credit standings
in next weeks issue of the Democrat
the race may be said to be really
started. The fast bunch are then "off
at the post"
! IF we know character at all we opine
that no such misery sa gutter will
appear among those names we pre-
sent today. Certainly the winner of
first honors will be entitled to much
admiration for defeating such field
and as certainly commentator will he
due those who fight all the way thru
and die game.

Japan is having trouble with .
tribe that inhabits the wilder parts
Of Korea. They have a habit Of
burning down forests, which are not
plentiful in Korea, In order to get
fresh soil for their crops. Another
bad habit Of theirs is avoiding soap
and water; they never battle from
the day they are born until they
die, yet they are healthy; at least
they never have the doctor or use
medicines. The marriage ceremony
among them consists merely in shak-
ing hands, custom that travellers
in Korea, particularly bachelors,
would perhaps do well TO keep In

A fireplace in the living room IL
symbolic Of hospitality and in the
mind Of the modern home builder is
practically essential. Its chief value
lies in its cheeriness, but it really
is fuel saver during the early fall
and late spring days when the
economy Of operating the entire
heating system is doubtful. The
eoziness and comfort Of ones own
fireplace afford a degree Of salts
