<S(r" 77—- „ ......... r TTTE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. 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. \Ve hnve now entered the thick of the fipht. the battle Ik on mid when the smoke clear* nwiiy on July 31 WHO Wild, STAND FORTH AS VICTORS? Who knows? Victory is ns liable to perch on the banner of one candidate as another and probably the candidate who is now hovering near the cellar championship, as the base ball ists say, may be the one who will come so fast during the last few days that there will Is- no stopping him— he will sweep all before him and inarch triumphantly to Ills goal. This statement should be considered well by all candidates and es|ieciall.v those who may feel that there Is no need for them to exert themselves during this time, as they are certain of victory. No one is certain of victory, and no one will Is* until all Is over. You may be iu the lead now and he reasonably slire in your own mind that no one can defeat you for the prize you want, but you do not know what efforts will Is* put forth before the close and while you rest apparently secure in the prospect of winning, your very nearest competitor will probably be working so energetically that the gap between yon now will Is* closed up to allow victory snatched from your grasp when a little real effort during these seven days will win for you and any other candidate who fails to do his very best is liable to lx* without the charmed circle of winners oil .Inly 31, rio matter how far in front he may lx* at present. Present standings are not indicative of final results by a long way. Itea.l 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 away in front and then fell down during the last quarter, while the "rank outsider," now considered as a last place possibility, romped in ahead of the favorite? This 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, but such things have happened so often the candidate is not given a chunce to win by the “wise” ones finally defeating all his rivals that a similar occurrence In The American-*igorgion campaign would not D* surprising. Hence, we wimt to impress upon every candidate the necessity of doing his lies! before the tiuisti overtakes you. FIVE MORE DAYS OF THE RED LETTER BALLOTS. Just live more days and the Red letter Ballot, which is the last special vote offer of the contest, will draw to a close. The work being done by the great majority of candidates proves tlmt they appreciate tlieir op portunities and are going to die hard. Those who have as yet done but little on tills 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. nTesday night at 10 o’clock this offer will close and those who have failed to take advantage of this offer and these will lx* but fe.w, will have missed a chance that may mean final defeat. Votes are the only things that will win for you and without these necessary things you cannot hope to win. Hence every one is worth securing and essential to success.
