H.PORTE GRANT Of Hartaville tuKt ruK )M THIS COUNTY ladies had practically the same number of votes. Who knows but what this county will be the honored one and our candidate bring back the distinction of being Queen of 1922 Palmafesta? All of the young ladies will assemble in Columbia on Monday, April the 17th when Palmafesta starts and will be the guests of Palmafesta until Saturday the 22nd ot" April when I 1922 Palmafesta will close. All ex| penses will be paid by Palmafesta and j all the young lady must do to win the distinction of being Palmafesta Queen is to be elected in her own county and go to Columbia and compete with the other yourg ladies assembled. Tha candidates do nothing in Columbia to win the ruling place but appear before the voters and be introduced. The beauty supplement thJs year will be widely circulated over the State and the County Queens will not only have their pictures in this beautiful page but their pictures will be put in the Palmafesta program to be preserved in permanent form. All of the young ladies will be personally conducted about the big show of automobiles and trades displays where the man industries and products of the State will be demonstrated to the public. , The $500 prize for the best County float is bringing many registrations. Hambone says, "Last year you couldn't buy niithin for a dollah. and this year you cain't get a dollah to buy nuthing with," but here is a way to get $500 in gold. This county can easily design a good float to show the natural resources, the industries or some historical event and have as good a chance to win the prize as anyone. Just write to Mr. James G. Holmes, 1215 Lady Street. Columbia and tell him you want to enter a float. The parade will be on Thursday, April the 20th and will be a mamouth affair. 5TANTS UP TO DATE 4,461 6,436 i i rwi vv GOO 2,300 1,100 COUPON \LMAFESTA afesta is: ] yearly paid-in-advance subscrip>otes. ?
