I ONE WEEK FROM TO NIGHT PONY CONTEST ENDS No One Is Certain of Victory and the Lowest Candidate To-day May Be a Lead er To-morrow—Only Seven More Days to Claim Prizes—Will You Be Among the Winners?—Success Is Within Your Grasp If You Will Only Realize the Fact and Prove Your Right to the Prizes By Your Efforts Now—"Dark Horses" Will Probably Come Fast Dur ing Last Days and Crowd Out the Too Certain Ones. we havp now entered the thirk of the flffht. the buttle is on »m1 when the smoke Hears away on July *’l WHO WILL STAND FORTH \S VICTORS? Who knows? Victory 1h a* liable to perch on the banner of one candidate as another‘ami probably the candidate who Is now hovering near the cellar championship as the bas.- “lists sav. may lie the one who will come so fast during the last few days that there will lie no stopping Inn he will sweep all before him and mareh triumphantly to his goal. This statement should tie considered «''ll i> all candidates and es^sdall.v those wlm may feel that there Is no need for them to exert themselves .luring tills time, as they are certain of vietory. No one Is certain of victory, and no v ne will Is- until all is over. Yotl may he in the lead now and he reasonably sure In your own mind that no one ran defeat you for the prize you want, but you do not know what efforts will Is- put forth ts-fore the eh.se and while you rest apparently secure in the prospect of winning, vottr verv nearest liter will probably Ik- working so energetically that the gap between von now will Is- closed up to allow victory snatched front your grasp when a- little real effort during these seven days will win for you and any other candidate who fails to do Ids very liest ts liable to lie without the charmed circle of winners on July 31. tio matter how far In front he may tie at present. Present standings are not Indicative of final results by a long way. lteal effort NOW is going to swing the pendulum of victory or defeat and If you really desire one of those pony outfits or a pretty watch, now is your opportunity to win your selection. Have you ever witnessed a horserace, where the favorite started out in front, passed the quarter and half poles awav in front and then fell down during the last quarter, while the “rank outsider," now considered as n last plae^ possibility, romped In ahead of the favorite? Thia illustrates perfectly what is Just as liable as not to happen In the contest during these last few days. We don’t say that It will happen, hut such things have happened so often—the candidate Is not given a chance to win by the “wise” ones- finally defeating all his rivals—that a similar occurrence in The American Georgian campaign fvould not Ik- surprising. Hence, we want to impress upon every candidate the necessity of doing his tiest before the finish overtakes you. FIVE MORE DAYS OF THE RED LETTER BALLOTS. Just five more Mays and the Hod Letter Hallot, which Is the last special vote offer of the contest, will draw to a close. The work lieing done by the great majority of candidates proves that they appreciate- tla-ir op portunities and are going to die hard. Those who have as yet done but little on this offer, should lose no time in getting started There is still time to secure its advantages and every vote secured is a step nearer success. oTesdny night at 10 o’clock this offer will close and those who have failed to take advantage of this offer and these will he hut few. will have missed a chance that may mpan final defeat. Votes are the only things ttiat will win for you and without these necessary things you cannot hope to win. Hence every one is worth securing and essential to success.
