Contestant to Get Start
ed in the Race as Quick
ly as Possible.
OPPORTUNITY A
BIG ONE FOR ALL
All That 'ls Necessary Is
For You to Take Ad
vantage of It Now.—
Don’t Wait a Moment.
Nominations are still open In the
Tribune and Times automobile and
gold election, nnd, no doubt, a num
ber of names will be sent within the
next day or so. It is advisable, though,
to get started as soon as possible and
all itersons contemplating entering
their names should send in their nom
ination blanks at onee. *
You have never had an opportunity
presented to you as big and as easy
'' to secure as you have in this generous
voting campaign.
We’ll warrant that you never be
fore had a chance to secure a luxur
ious automobile without the’ expendi
ture of one cent on your part. But
that is just what we have offered you
in this campaign.
And your opportunity to win a car
is still here. Afl that is necessary
is that you take advantage of it now.
(»o after one of these cars and go
after it strong. Make up your mind
that you are going to win and stop
for nothing.
If you are alive, wake up to the
opportunity. Give a little spare op
jmrtunity. Give a little spare time to
this event. Come to the office and
talk it over—aud you can WIN I’P
TO A s2llO AUTOMOBILE IN THE
NEXT FEW WEEKS.
The work is not hard. You do not
hove to possess a college education to
win one of these awards. What it re
quires is constant plugging, hammer
ing away steadily for the next few
weeks.
To You Who Have Entered.
Now that you have entered the
campaign, what are you going to do
td insure its being YOUR priae cam
paign? Y'ou have gone into it with a
definite object in view— to win otic of
ter your name as a candidate and then
sit’with folded hands waiting for yonr
friends to subscribe in your favor.
That would be one of the longest
waits you ever had.
This campaign is an opportunity for
workers, it is an opportunity to get
within a few weeks something that can
usually be obtained only by months of
patient toil. Have you found it al-1
together easy to save up to s2llO for
some luxury that you wished?
Who Will Win?
The persons who make the best
use of their time between now and the j
end of the campaign (just a few!
short weeks) are the ones who will re
joice at the end. Do you realize that
it is but a short time away. Can’t you
tee that there is no time for hesita
tion or delay? The person who hasn't
a car this season must jump right in
to the campaign today and hustle with
the brightest and best of candidates.
Oportunity Here.
Candidates in the Tribune and
Times, big automobile campaign, as
well as some of thoae who have not yet
entered the race, are busy with pencil
nnd paper these days figuring what it
would take in subscriptions to acquire
the -leadership for one of the grand
prize cars.
Votes are the only things necessary
to win, and they can be gotten by the
thousands, yes by ten thousands. On
every subscription turned in a certain
number of votes are allowed, depending
upon the size, or rather the length of
the subscription. And in addition to
these regular subscription votes, 100,-
000 SPECIAL votes are allowed on
every SIB.OO worth of subscriptions
turned in.
Therefore by the use of a little
mathematics, it can easily be figured
that * mere handful of subscriptions
at this time, the result of a little ef
fort among your friends, relatives
and acquaintances, would at once
pace you among the leaders of the
race and in line for a prize up to
s2llO.
AVorth trying for, to say the least
—don’t you thing?
But don’t wait—start now!
The beauty of this campaign is that
while you win big, you give value re

CASTLES ARE BEING
SOLD AT BARGAIN RATES
! Historic Mansions of Various Ages
Have Been Disposed of Recently.
London. Sept. 15. —GW —Castles are
being sold in England at bargain
rates. Historic mansions of various
sizes and ages have been disposed of
1 recently by members of the older ar
intocracy because of high taxes and
death duties which it is contended by
many families have made it advisable
to dispose of non-income hearing prop
erty rather than hold them because
of their historic value.
In other instances drastic economies
hove been made in the administration
, of great estates, one of these being
that of the Duke of Norfolk which
originally embraced some 50,000 acres.
AntfMri Castle in Sussex, hotne of the
17-year-old duke, has been closed five
year* and there is talk of selling it.
Hie Duchess of Norfolk gave up the
castle for a modest iottage in Ox
ford to be near her son who is at
tending the university.
Tlie moot recent transfer of a castle
at a low figure is that of historic
Gwydyr in the vale of conway, which
was purchased by Jay Mitchell, of
Colwyn Bay, for 2,000 pounds ster
ling. Gwydyr was the seat of a famous
Welsh family, the Wynnes until 1658.
1 That part of the original castle which 1
j still stands was built in 1555 by Sir
John AVynne and for generations has i
been a favorite haunt of sightseers.
It was restored in 1828.

A recent “swan census" taken at 1
Oxford, disclosing that more than a .
thousand swans live on the Thames
between Oxford and Southhark Bridge,
London, has brought to mind stories
of medieval days when the city of
Oxford was charged with keeping the
king’s swans preserved and has re
viewed hopes that the fat swan may j
be restored to the place of honor at
Oxford civic dinners.
Under the Norman kings Oxford,
even then a populous town, was given ,
royal license to keep “the game of ,
swans" on the upper Thames. Old
city records are full of watermen who
branded file birds on the beak with
the mark of the city. The branding
was known as “swan-upping” and
took place each year just before the
visit of the royal swanherd. After
the sixteenth century the city council
decided to retire from the expensive
and worrysome business of swan farm
ing and leased the '“game of swans”
to burgesses for a rent of four fat
birds yearly, “three to be paid against
the election dynner and thother
against the comying home of the may
or.” The birds decreased rapidly un
der this arrangement, but in recent
years their contributions to the beau
ty of the river has led to their pro
tection and consequent increase.

THE COTTON MARKET
Recent Big Advances Followed by
Slight- Reactions During the Early
Trading.
New York, Sept. 15. —(A*)—Recent
big advances in the cotton market
were followed by slight reactions in
today’s trading, the opening was
easy to a decline of 15 to 20 points

goods were checking business to some
extent in Manchester. .
December contracts sold off to 24.65
but there was trade buying on the de
cline and prices firmed up again on
reports that shippers were short on
spot cotton for October aud December
shipments, and were paying an ad
dance basis for supplies in the South.
December sold to 24.77 and prices
held within 10 or 15 points of yes-1

AIRCRAFT BOARD TO
HAVE FULL AUTHORITY
Witnesses to Be Called and Course of
Proceedure Must Be Determined by
Board.
Washington, Sept. 15.—OR—Presi
dent Coolidge will give his aircraft
investigating board a free hand as to
the witnesses to be summoned and
the course of proceedure to be fol
lowed.
Acceptances have not yet been re
ceived from all of the 9 men asked to
serve, but the Executive is confident
that all of them will accept.
Mr. Coolidge feels that the board
must decide for itself whether its
hearings are to be open to the public,
but he sees no argument against open
sessions unless perhaps at some time
in the investigation the board should
consider confidential plans for the
national defense.
The policy to be pursued in this
course, lie thinks, can be best decided
after the obard has convened and or
