Campaign Manager's office, asking for a receipt book and information, concerning The News' Automobile Contest. She was nominated by, some friend?read what she says: ' "I didn't know until today that anyone had considered me a possibility in The News' Auto Contest, and didn't know until a few minutes ago who it was that east the lirst vote for me; but 1 am certainly going after that automobile, for I consider it a most liberal offer. Too late? Mercy, no! Seems to be that this is just the right time to get in this battle. Six days is a mighty short time, yes, but one can do wonders in six days." This was about the substance of the conversation with this young lady, and she has the right spirit to make a good contestant, with all the nerve and confidence necessary to win. She did not ask a single question? did not seem to care how the race was going?she just seemed to consider that she was going to be the nil 1v nnn in V\ rv ro on 'PhSn ?n wu?/ vuv * 11 i ti v i ate. j u irs . r6 me right spirit.

They hear all kinds of wild rumors, that "so i and so" has a bunch of subscriptions already. Rumor is ever untrustworthy and no reports are so apt to bo exaggerated as these. In fact "live wire'' contestants are apt to circulate reports of this kind on pur-, pose. It is a pretty safe plan to cut these reports in the middle?or even Kit THE It EH ITT.

No apology is necessary in soliciting subscriptions to The News?-you know that they are going to get their money's worth many times over. Anyone who get the habit of reading The News will never bo without it. Subscriptions are climbing at a lively H rate and the editor is much elated B over the success. The contestants I are "live wires" and are giving a I good ammount of themselves. We I appeal to the general public to give I them their assistance when they call I for they are worthy of your help. I LEAD, DON'T FOLLOW. ; This should be your slogan. There . are always plenty of followers?but' the real leaders are few. The Campaign Manager has been fortunate in getting into this contest real leaders. They are not only leaders, but thev possess the qualifications of making leaders out of others. It is interesting to note the perfect working machinery of some of them?just how they go about their work?their follow-up system, and how they keep behind each and everyone who might . subscribe. They would be a power in the political field, for it is organ-1 Izatlon that always spells success. Now, only six more working days | , rtk A A At f*. D1 0 at money ' voting ber th ?- Wlll^l JH ...
