SEVERAL NEW CONTESTANTS

wwp*" 6 Race is Not Only Attracting • Much Attention, But Only a few Votes Separate the Ofeltire List. T -‘cG'S .tit*: I ‘iJkx Several new contestants have entered the race sots-The Democrat’s beautiful $350 piano iand all of the entries sire not only working for votes but are expressing the intention of making the winner hustle. *%ss) As each new subscriber to The Democrat is good for 3,000 votes for each year paid, and 4ich renewal entitles the contestant to 1500 votes for edch year, it can readily be seen that the new candidates have just as much opportunity as the leaders. , Remember “the race is not always to the swift” and the plodder who keeps everlastingly at it, not paying any attention to what someone else is doing, is the one who suceeds in any undertaking. This is no exception. The actual vote of the contestants will not be published again for some time, but the candidates in the order of their standing will be printed in each issue:

Mari bell Kays, Rensselaer Lizzie Wiseman, Virgie Mildred Rush, Rensselaer R-3 Ethel M Fisher, Rensselaer Loretta Nagel, Rensselaer Arkana Ritchey, Remington R-3 Fairy Pollard, Rensselaer R-4 Alice Daniels, Rensselaer Bessie McElfresh, Rensselaer R-l -Victoria Marsh, Rensselaer R-3 Lucy Falks, Remington R-4 Myrtle Leavel, Rensselaer Lucy Morgenegg, Rensselaer R-l Ruth E Ball, Rensselaer May Shook, KnimaU Stella Platt, Rensselaer Anna Marion, Parr Bernice Yeoman, Rensselaer R-2 Mary Potts, "Rensselaer Ruth Wiltshire, Rensselaer Hazel Shumaker, Rensselaer R-4 Mary Gaunt, Remington R-3 Lney Ulm, Rensselaer Aria Lyons, Rensselaer Wilda Green, Remington Ida Harley, Parr Edna Ward, Rensselaer R-4 With but a few new subscribers the contestant with the lowest number of votes now would be leading. That the race is only begun and that the winning contestant must hustle is self-evident, as the present small advantage can be overcome by a few minutes work>-by any of the present contestants or new ones who will enter later.

The premiums are all worth striving hard for and from present indications will be by all now entered and possibly many bthers. New candidates should start at once though, as the sooner the start is made the less handicap they will have to overcome.
