Special Offer Adds. Votes m Baby Contest
This Week Only Subscriptions Count 800 Votes Each for All Contenders Chance Given Those Lagging
 to Pick Up Standings

Here's the surprise that was pre- dicted yesterday for today. THE MOST POPULAR BABY CONTEST vote count will be changed starting today and the change will last for the rest of this week ONLY.
 Instead of the 200 votes for every subscription to THE DEMOCRAT, which has been the count for the first weeks of balloting, every sub scription to THE DEMOCRAT will count as 800 votes today, Wednes- day, Thursday, Friday and Satur- day.
 Special Inducement This is a SPECIAL ADDED IN- JUDGEMENT to EVERY CONTEN- DER to GET IN ALL OF THE SUBSCRIPTIONS on hand, and as many more as you can, during this extra SPECIAL PERIOD-TODAY THROUGH THE REST OF THE, WEEK.
 It means, too, that every one of the babies remaining in THE MOST POPULAR BABY CONTEST will have chance to show how much you can do and, quite possibly, to bring your standing up to the point neces- sary to win one of the major prizes, maybe the grand first prize of $1OO cash and beautiful loving cup.
 Wonderful Chance
 This is wonderful chance for those contenders who have not made great gains within the last week or ten days to spurt up among the leaders, perhaps take the lead. Remember, you have only today through the rest of the week for this special count, 500 votes for every subscription. And get those subscriptions in right away, too, Sc they'll be counted in time.
 Warm weather came back yester- day and last night the votes started warming up the adding machines tabulating returns in THE MOST POPULAR BABY CONTEST. Margaret Lemere Leads
 Flocks of votes for the contend CTS are arriving but the surprise of the day was the gain made by Mar garet Lemere, 3H year old daugh- ter of MT. and Mrs. Albert Le- mere of 265 South Main street. Mar garet picked up 1000 votes to keep her ahead with a good lead.
 And she needed those votes, too,

because Lawrence DiPersio, son of MT. and Mrs. Vincent P. DiPersio, of 280 Plank road, picKed up a nice number of votes, himself. Law renee gained 800 votes.
 First With 8,100 Votes
 That makes Margaret Lemere out in front with 8,10O votes and Lew renee DiPersio is second with 7,300 votes. There's a "dark horse" in the race, however, Randall Scum ders, of Park road, if reports are correct. And several of the lead- ing contenders are showing nice gain from day to day.
 Watch the vote totals grow this week! The CONTEST will be hum- ming with activity, we'll bet, and the results may be entirely changed within the next few days.
 Keep in touch by reading THE DEMOCRAT. And lister in to Station WATR for announcements of the standings.

 He was severely wounded, taken prisoner and sent to an Italian is- land near Sardinia. While there he learned the Czech and Hunga- rian languages and perfected him. self as gymnastic teacher.
 Nazis Activate Him
 It was not until August 26, 1919, that he was finally released and re- turned to his home country which was now part of the Czechoslovak Republic. From then until 1925 he had small job in a local bank. At night he was active in the local Turnverein. In 1925 he was made made gymnastic instructor in the Turnverein at Asch.

to politics. But all this changed when, in 1883, the Nazis came into power in Germany. Henlein formed the Sudeten Germans into politi- cal party. It was financed in part by the Nazis. It was supplied with literature. Dark threats were made to Sudeten Germans who did not fall into line. In the ensuing elec- ton for Parliament, Henleins par ty won A seats.
 Banks on Hitler's Backing
 Secure in the knowledge that he is backed by Hitler, the once mod est gymnastic teacher has gone on from threat to threat. He has not only demanded local autonomy for his oppressed" Sudeten brethren, but even had the audacity to try to dictate to the government what its foreign policy should be. All Eu- rope recognizes him as mere stalk ing horse for Hitler's desires-the grabbing of Czechoslovakia with its rich mineral and agricultural lands, it's powerful Skoda munition works, it's territory as a jumping off place for further German thrusts to the east and southeast.

 Heinlein was born May 6, 1898, in Maffersdorf in Old Bohemia, in the section devoted to the textile indus try.

 London, May 24-An exhibition of international ventriloquism, with Adolf Hitler speaking but the words seeming to come from the mouth of Konrad Henlein, is being watched with envy by less talented diplo- mats in Europe.
 The movements, the speeches, the demands of Henlein = professorial appearing leader of Czechoslova- kias Sudeten Germans-are mainly Nazi-inspired.
