to give his name.
Here's the letter it was written on
gorgeous pink paper:
FL Asst Monday I was standing
IL IN one of the marble rings
painted on the pavement
around the circle which some humor-
Gus foe of the HOPS named Safety
Zones" but in reality only traps
laid there so that the HOPS will
congregate and the motorst can
get rid of five or six of them by
using the same gas and foot pres
sure he would have to use to get
one. An airplane passed overhead.
Seeing the endless line of HOP
ext1nguishers passing by on the
, street, l put confidence in the words
safety zone" and decided to watch
the airplane. A passing motorist in
a closed FORD (Which was trans
lated for me by one who was for
merly an anti-HOP, but failed to
meet one of his payments on one
the HOP snufflers and was thrown
out of the order, as meaning
brighten OR RUN DOWN." seem
ingly jealous of my apparent "at
ease look" stretched his neck out
to see what I was watching.
1.-The result was that he took the
shine off one of my shoes and al
most the toes from my foot. But
as I was one of those careless HOPS
who failed to forward the stick Of
gum for a book of appropriate things
to say in such case, all I could do
was to smile and beg his pardon
for being in his way. But l don't
think he accepted my apology, be-
cause he maintained that look Of
Ill-get-youthe-neXttime.
I'm afraid to sign my name to

But there was some speculation as
to whether he might rot feel it
necessary to proceed against the
querulous Chicago lawyer Monday.
After Raulston reads the affidavits,
if he still believes the jury should
not hear their contents, closing
arguments will be made and the
jury will be given the fate Of
Scopes. Scopes already is foraging

THE MoRE-THE EASIER

Perhaps, It would not at once occur
to you;. but the more hustling men
and women to- enter the Ialesmanship
Club the easier it will bs for you to
secure oa1e of the automobiles. How
is that, you ask? 1t is like this.
There are on& SO Many possigae'
Subscriptions 10 be had. even if we
consider every family in all the ter
ritory covered by The Planet. Now
if only two club members were work
ling, the winning one would necesr
sarily have to, have more titan half
of those families to be sure OF having
tmore than hts or her opponent. But,
if there l,wtere fifty Club members
working, the winning n need only
have just a few more credits than
anv of the others. In other words,
Victory will come far easier. and from
far fewer credits, with fifty active
club members than il only a few

Remember. this, too: The big
awards, big as. they are, have no
strings tied to- them. You do not
have to qualify with a certain num-
Der of credits or a certain amount
of cash business to earn them Just
so you have the largest number of
credits, and that regardless what that
largest number happens to be. you
will receive that lovely Grand Cap
ital Prize for your very own on the
evening of Saturday, October IT,
Just what number Of credits Will
be required to win first honors in this
campaign is something no man can
say. With an average number of
club members working. the final to-
tails will probably be about average
which means that a surprisingly
small number of subscriptions will
actually secure first honors.

FAIR N SQUARE.

The plan under which this prom,
sbarine,, distribution is to be made
is absolutely FAR and squar.. The
publishers of The Richmond Planet
investigated carefully before con-
tracing for the campaign and stand
behind every promise. Every precau'
tion has been taken to safeguard tne
interests of participants and absolute
honesty in all dealings is guaranteed.
However, not all wisdom lies win
any one man or institution, and 1or
that reason an Advisory Board has
been decided upon. whose functions
shall be to decide any question OF
suff. cient moment that might happen
to arise during the competitt' IN AMI
from which a committee shall be Sc
lected to act as judges and audit the
credits on the last night OF the cam
paign.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Gathering subscriptions for h
Richmond Planet will be most enjoy
able and profitable, Those who take
part in the campaign Will not be $50
licfting charity or accept ng favors
The Richmond Planet represents a
big value for small money. Saying
nothing at all about the news, stories
and many other enjoyable features
contained in each issue, its advertis.
ing columns each week carry value
to every family. It Is an easily prov.
en- fact that it will cost any family
in this community mor to try to do
without The Planet than 1t would to
have it for a weekly visitor, even
were the subscription price several
times more than it is. Just the saw
ings they will make. from reading the
announcements of special sales and
the like show that.
But in order that The Planet may
serve the community even better than
ever, several hundred new subscr1p-
tions are necessary. The more sub.
scriptions the more advertising, and
the more advertising the bigger and
better The Planet.
