The words let: out were “drugs" from Lachot A- Rice: "work” from G. E. Steele and "we” 1 from the Decatur laundry ads. A young man by the name of Solomon O. • land was the lucky winner, his an- - swer being the first correct one out of tlie box. In looking over the answers . the editor found that some of the con : testants are trying to get an advan tage by sending in more than one an- : swer, but all are carefuuly examined and more than one answer from one person invalidates all they have in. Several of the rural patrons had correct answers, and if they keep on' . sending them in many of the later i; prizes are bound to go to the rural districts. Don’t get disheartened, there are still twenty-four prizes to be distributed, and you will surely get one of them. K. OF P. MEETING.
