Mayer served eighteen i-ears after the death of Robertson ind then went to Newport News, V'a., with "ligh recommendations from the college authorities as to his faithfulness and good character. He immediately accepted the position of n*- flic hio-li school in New J <i i 11LU L d\j i _ _ port, and for the past three years ha? been "on the job" there. So well l|as he lived and succeeded that he has bought a house and lot in that city. The Herald and News is glad to mention this.

In fact but very few votes separate those ' . running first to the ones at the bottom of the lfs.t,.and next week may ; find the ones running last this week out in front when the votes are v i . i counted again. VI he race so iar nas i j proven to be one of the most inter[! esting campaigns ever before staged : j in this section as all of the contest, i ants are determined to win and none , j of them have signified that they will . be satisfied with any of the minor k prizes as each has declared that the , will drvie the Handsome Cleveland .

J I have been published repeaieuiy u;:u will be adhered to in every respect. v As advertised the opening week of the campaign the contest will abso; iutely close on May 5th regardless of the amount of subscriptions turned in, and under no circumstances will this date be postponed. Largest Extra Vote Offer Closes April 17 th. The bonus offer, the largest ejctra j vote offer to be allowed, will come to 11 - UncinncP f t>r I a close at ?ne ciose ui UUOiutco aw* J the day on Saturday, April 17th. Up until this time 5.0,000 extra votes will be allowed on each and every $10 in subscriptions turned in. AS this extra bonus makes each usbscription average three times as many votes as will be allowed, during the closing week the contestants can I readily see just how important it is j that they secure every subscription possible before the close of this offer, as it will take three subscriptions later on to count as many votes as one subscription yields now. Thus a -- ?urVi>r?Vi averages i one year suustiipuivn ?> >?.. 15.000 votes now only counts 5,000 during the closing weefc of the campaign. Contestants Highly Pleased With Cleveland Six. All ladies who have entered the campaign have expressed themselves x as being highly pleased with the Grand Capital prize, The Cleveland I Six, and it is indeed doubtful if any j car that could have been chosen by | the managers of the campaign could have given such universal satisfaction as the Cleveland.
