He v soaks the' grafters in the neck, he saves the Ship of State from wreck, he's Johnnie on the spot, by heck, when things are in a jumble. He writes the ads that bring the dough, he chases all our gloom and woe, he tells us all we want to know rand yet he is. quite humble.

Billy Sunday owns an apple ranch at Hood River, out in Oregon, and he is there at pres ent recuperating from the exer tions of - his Philadelphia and Paterson meetings. Since he has been absent trouble seems to have broken out in his organization, Bentley Ackley, his pianist, and Rev. E. M..Emmett, his advance agent, having resigned. Ackley was also secretary for the evan gelist - Discontent i. about : the division of earnings seems to be at the bottom of the trouble, the division " being incited by jeal ousy. Ackley threatens to make exposure of inside secrets, and thev making of a threat of that sort will at once put him in bad odor with the public, with whom Ackley will stand , about on a par with the politician who bolts his party arid goes over to the enemy because he could not get the office he wanted. It develops that Ackley's confidential friend is an officer of the New Jersey Liquor Dealers' Association and it was this friend who first got news of Ackley's resignation.

". t' i r "i ric.;:,i IF A $400 ffl I will be given Absolutely Free to the young lady in Alexander County securing the greatest number of votes in our Voting Contest which began on Monday, June 14th, 1915, Here are the terms and conditions which make it possible for some young Jady, to secure this valuable prize: ; Each yearly subscription counts 10Q votea, Persons not now taking The Scout may subscribe and pay for a term of one or two years, but no longer. Present subscribers can renew or extend their subscrip ; tions for one or two years but no' longer. Subscriptions may be taken anywhere in the United States or Canada. . .'" , Every dollar paid on this contest must be accompanied by the name of some person to whom the Scout is to be sent for a term of one or two vears.. In other words, no - money will be received without a subscription. Any one wishing to place a friend in the contest can do so by paying one dollar for a subscription to The Mountain Scout. This gives your candidate 100 votes to start with. Then bring in every subscription you can secure and watch the standing of the contestants in the Scout each week. A candidate can enter at any time and withdraw at any time; but one candidate will not be allowed to transfer her votes to another candidate. Every subscription taken in this contest will be enter ed in a book kept for this purpose, with the name of the . candidate for whom the votes are cast. This book will be kept open for examination by any of the candidates or their friends. The contest will be conducted with absolute fairness to all. The Piano we are going to give away is one of the best instruments made by the Kreiter Mfg. Co. Arrangements have been made with the Adams Furniture Store, of this place, to order the Piano and have it orr exibition as soon as the factory can deliver it. It will be the . Most Appropriate Gift anyone could offer. Some young lady in Alexander County will receive it. Who it will be will depend on the interest the friends of the contestants take in the campaign. An early start will mean much, so let every one bring or send their subscriptions at once. For convenience the following blank may be used: .1915.
