Baker 221 Judge Harry Chamberlin 192 Earl Cox 144 Harry Bason 72 Henry O. Goett 61 Fred Simon 51 Bob Pogue 42 Howard M. Meyer 3! See ’em and sleep! Go back to your trundlebed, Simmons or hammock, for all is safe in Brown Derbyville. The judges have been named and* above their mugs are given to the vast multitude of voters who have awaited this momentous occasion. Judge for yourself if, in nostril formation, ear locality and superhuman brain-power, they are not the worst judges ever selected. None of them knows a Brown Derby from a cockade. Jo-Jo Is Found An old Nickel Plate railroad timetable was responsible for locating Jo-Jo, the dog-faced one. It seems that at one time Jo-Jo was a sleep walker and the railroad hired him to wreck its trains by testing out the rails. He went to sleep on a curve one day and, presto,*you have that inimitable nose in the drawing. His father long ago denied paternity. The second male arbiter to decide the city's most distinguished citizen and crown him on Sept, 8 at the Indiana state fair with the chocolate “kelly” is none other than good old “Egad"—Major Hoople—himself. “Whatta race she'll be this year, gentlemen! Sirrah! Whatta race!” suggests Mrs. Hoople s big bouncing boy—the Major. And to balance the act, we had to find a lady who could serve ’em up—the decisions, mind you—without fear or favor. Them Eyes! Them Curls! That's where Fanny Foam came through the swinging doors. She has those wine-glass eyes you love to see and they fairly drip drops of anguish when Fanny gets frothy. Notice her pretzel mouth! Some mug! She tripped while eating a piece of macaroni cne day, in cleaning out a bake-oven, and that’s the “How come” of the curl. And those lovely beer-stein handle ears. Didja ever see such ears? Grab one! Yeah! They're as real as repeal in a congress of bartenders. But the glory of glories is her I foamy hair. Ah! What hair! It’s ! almost like soap-suds. One day her papa left this world and he willed Fanny all he had—one shaving stick, one can of malt, one corkscrew and one bar rag. So Here Y’ou Are She drank and ate malt and shavj ing stick for years upon years, until ! one day she noticed the corkscrew : She used it on her head and out

Vote often and early without fear that they know anything about this yearly scramble—they don’t. All they know is that some man will be honored by being crowned the city’s most distinguished resident at the fair on Sept. 8.
