THE EVENING TIMES: RALEIGH, N. G, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1910. CONTESTANTS CLOSELY BUNCHED TIE SHORT and work hard. The time is getting shorter, and each and ev.ery contest ant should make every minute count. The Contest Manager has one re quest to make, and that is that all contestants send in subscriptions as fast as they are secured. It is much easier to keep up with the, work and votes if this is done. A number of the contestants are waiting until the last of the week to send in the entire week's work. This causes a great deal of work in the office, and he wishes that each contestant would send in their subscriptions each day, and either have the votes published in the paper, or a voting coupon re turned. I PAGE TWO Not Quite Four Weeks After Today Then the Contest - Is All Over March 21st WILL YOU WIN? This is a Question Which Must be Answered by Each and Every Con testant The Times Has Done its Part In Offering These Magnificent Prizes Its V pto You. I Below is the standing of the con testants in The Times' Great Euro pean Trip Contest up to Monday, 6:00 P. M. The leaders, as will be noticed, are very closely bunched and a few subscriptions would cause one contestant to lead and other to drop behind. The close of the Great Contest is getting nearer and nearer each day, although there is plenty of time for any contestant who will exert effort to secure the lead of the entire con test, and receive the trip to Europe for herself and companion. The con testants must not overlook the fact that there are three grand prizes, besides the trips to Europe, and any one of the three are well worth win ning. The Second Grand Capital Prize, which is a magnificent $450 mahogany upright Christman Piano, is a much larger prize than most newspapers otter us top prizes. Third, there is a beautiful $400 BeJ-room Set of Furniture, consisting of. bed, dressing case, wardrobe, washstand, chiffonier, etc. This is by far the handsomest set of furniture that has ever been brought to the city of Ral eigh, and will be given to the lady who secures the third largest number of votes in the entire contest. Fourth prize will be a $350 Farrand Piano. The lady who receives this prize will receive a handsome compensation for the few weeks' effort. To each and every district alone there is a handsome diamond ring and a King's Business College Schol arship. There remains only about four weeks' time and each contestant should make each day count, and not only secure every possible subscrip tion herself, but get her friends in terested and get them to work. The contestants who do this will likely be the ones that will win the magniii cent prizes on March 21st. Look the list over and see how easily you can lead the entire contest. Don't let anyone "bluff you," by stating how many votes they have in reserve, as the lady who has any in reserve does not talk about it. The key to success from now on is work, i Standing up to Monday, February 21, 6:00 P. M.: DISTRICT No1. Miss Flora E.

Burgin, positively re- f ises to accept the nomination at the oniing primary, in tho near future for the mayorship of the city of Thomasville, therefore the public of the town will have to choose another citizen to fill this position. . There are a number of good citizens here who would make a good mayor, but for business .-reasons decline to let their name- be placed before the peo ple. It is several weeks in the dist ance before the election, yet now is the time to begin to look around and offer suggestions. The officers of the People's Build ing and Loan Association will send out to citizens of Thomasville and surrounding country within the next few weeks a little pmnphU't setting forth the objects, benefits, and other interesting points about the associa tion which will be of interest to all who wish to become shareholders in the association.
