Egyptians Plan
Reception

While hordeS of Egyptians cheer
the GROWING of their Youthful
King Farouk in Carlo on July %,
society in the Capital will be
drinking toasts in his honor, for
the legation.
The Charge d'Affaires Anis
Aver, has his hands full at
present planning for the party
which undoubtedly will top
all other receptions given at the
legation. And as the Egyptians
are know for their lavish hoSpi-
tally, the party is being looked
forward to with great delight. The
Minister of Egypt, Mohamed
Anime Youssef Bey, is en- route
to Cairo to witness the Corona
ton, The Minister and Nine.
Anime Youssef Bey, accompanied
by their twin sons, will return to
the Capital the latter part OF
September.
King Farouk will undoubtedly
receive many congratulatory mes
sages on that eventful Thursday.
One note in particular will be a
cable sent from the Friends Of
Egypt, society founded in Wash
ington two years ago by Represen'
tative Ralph Brewster and former
Representative Fred Britten. They
have always sent a cablegram to
the young King on his birthday.
The King, who has just barely
reached 10 years of age, is familiar
with coronations, for he attended
the browning of King George VI
and Queen Elizabeth.
The ceremony in Egypt is a
simple one, comparable to our in
auguration. The Egyptian King
will take his oath in the Parlia-
ment office,

tained and these are what count as votes, It is quite possible that some entry with, say, 5000 or 4,0O0 votes can spurt to the front in a few days of intencive effort by his supporters Every subscription counts 175 votes.
 List of Prizes
 In case you've forgotten what the secondary prizes are, here's the list, starting with the $100 cash grand first prize, loving cup, and title, Most Popular Baby, which go to the win- iner; second, $50 cash and a loving cup; third, $2S cash and loving cup; fourth, twelve fine portraits of the baby; fifth, five prizes of $5 each, (really making $6 prizes for fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth places.)
 It is imperative that subscriptions be turned in promptly from now on until the end of the contest. You should get the habit of doing this because at he very end, during the last days of the Most Popular Baby contest, it is possible that wou might delay in this matter and your votes might not count. The reason would be that the Contest Manager wouldn't have time to check them and tabulate them officially, which is one of the rules of the contest, you know. ..
 Keep Busy
 So. keep the subscriptions coming in and don't let the three leaders scare you with their totals. Ot course, 10000 votes shows that some- one has been busy helping their favorite candidate to make a fine showing.
 That is the case with George Rizk teh leader; Ruth Ann Scannell, who is only few points behind in second place; and Randall Saunders, well over the 19,000 vote mark. The lead CTS in the contest have had good support.
 Their organizations have kept the votes coming in daily and that is why they have piled up ti the pre- sent totals. You can do the same with a little more work. Get out and procure the subscriptions which will mean that your candidate shall share in the prizes.
