ideal either in the Stetson (for men) LaFrance (for ladies) or "Star Brand" for men women and
children. Let us fit you up for another such rainy day with both Shoes and Overshoes.

' This brings the contest down
to the last week and only a few
more days remain in which to
secure votes. As was announced
last week the inducement for
double votes for every club of
two subscribers is off and from
now on the schedule as printed
below will prevail. Saturday
as a big day and more subscrip-
tions were turned in that day
than on any previous day in the
contest As the time for secur-
ing votes is limited those who
ever expect to do anything
should do it now.
Last Saturday also witnessed
some spirited voting which you
will notice by looking at the
standing of the boys. At pres-
ent it looks as if there were
going t be a close finsh.
The contest among the news-
boys is attracting more and more
attention as the closing days
draw nearer. People are becom-
ing interested in seeing some one
of the boys win out in this race
and are coming to their aid.
This is the last week and if
you have intended to help some
of the boys and have not done
so up to this date be sure and do
it now. If you know of some
one who would become a sub-
scriber you can help him by
telling him who it is.
Below is the way the boys in
the contest line up this morning.
Many changes will be made
from now on.
The standing of the boys in the contest is as.
follows :
Harold Cox - - 376
Burros Sweet - 163
