Tho Upton Plano Contest at C. W.
Pitchford'^ store will cloBe this week
and on Friday, September 1st, Mr.
Pitchford will give the winner in this
six-months' contest the handsome
Upton Plano, lt may bo safely said
now that the contest has narrowed
down to three parties-Nos. I, 112
and 117. Hut they have boen active
ly at work lately, as their results for
the past week will show.
For instance, No. 1 last week
showed up on Hie board with 3,371,
820 votes, while this week's results
show a total for No. 1 of 3,773,805,
indicating that 401,085 votes wore
deposited for that contestant, during
the weok.
No. 112 last week recorded 3,508,
080, while this week's count gives
that number 4,020.390? showing
that 512,310 votes were added dur
ing the past soven days.
No. 117 had last week on the bo'ard
3,558,520, while this week's show
ing gives to this contestant 4,058,
520, indicating that No. 117's week's
work had netted in round figures
500,000 votes.
These results show that three con
testants al least are keeping awake.
There aro still those who claim that
No. 14 ls a "sleeping monster" tobe
heard from hi the final wind-up, bul
if No. 14 ls really in the game she
must dump votes by the millions to
day and to-morrow.
The record of votes up to Wednes

Tho "Road Improvement Train" Will
Visit Walhalla September 7th.
Tho Soulhern Railway's special
"Road Improvement Train," now
touring the South in tho Interest of
tho good roads movement, will be
in Walhalla on Thursday, September
7th, at '2.30 p. m., to give a demon
stration on tho importance of good
roads and how to build them and
keep them in repair.
With exhibits, photographs, work
ing models and the aid of a storeop- I
tlcon, two road building experts of 1
the United States Department of Ag
riculture, L. E. Uoykln and H. S. 1
Fairbanks, assisted by W. J. Hurl
but, of the land and industrial de- 1
pertinent of tho Southern Railway,
will conduct free lectures, which are ;
sure to be of interost to tho person
at a loss how to Improve his road.
Tho train consists of two demon
stration coaches and a sleeper for
the uso of tho men lu charge. One
car ls fitted up as a lecture room and
ls provided with stereopticon equip- 1
ment. Views covorlng every phase
oE the good roads movement are
shown during the lectures, lending
point and Interest to the subject dis
cussed. The second car ls filled with
onlargod photographs, exhibits of
different road material and working
models, which are shown In actual
operation, teaching tho visitor not
i.uly what materials are best to use
In tho building or improvement of a
road, but how the road ls built and
kept in repair at tho smallest neces
sary cost.
The Southern Railway, believing
that tho construction of good roads
will result lu great benefit to the peo
plo of the South, whose Interests it
considers identical with its own, is
sending this train out over its entire
system In order that the people may
realize tho full economic value of tho
movement) and at the same time af
fording valuable Instruction In the
building of roads. Tho entire ex
pense of the campaign, which em
braces tho whole South, is being
borne by the Southern Railway and
affiliated lines.
The train has received a most cor
dial welcome In Its tour through Ala
bama, Mississippi, Tennessee, North
Carolina and Virginia, the people on
all sides turning out in large num
bers and showing an appreciative in
terest In the lectures and exhibit.
Tho tour began May 1. and dally ex
hibitions will bo made until the
whole territory served by the South
ern Railway and affiliated Hues ls
covered. The final exhibition will be
made during the good roads conven
tion to bo held In Richmond, Va.,
late In the fall.
lt ls hoped that the train will
stimulate interest lu tho good roads
movement In those sections that have
not been aroused. Those In charge
of tho train extend a cordial welcome
to the citizens of tills section to at
tend tue mooting at ibo train in Wal
halla on the 7th of September, which
Will be Thursday of next week.
It is to be hoped that county olfl
dals, road overseers, and all others
Interested, directly or Indirectly, In
Improved roads will make a point of
attending this meeting.
