THURSDAY, JUNE IT.
Warm Weather Not Affecting
Candidates in “Shower of Gold
Don't Hold Back Subscriptions
The warm weather may bother some
people with weak hearts but it doesn’t
faze the “Shower of Gold” candidates one
little bit. They’re up and at it with
the birds. One little tot came into the
Contest Manager's Office this morning
with a chubby little flstfull of coupons
of every description. Holding them up
to one of the young ladies in attend
ance she lisped: “Mama says to dive
dese to my little bruver." There were
only a few of and they didn't count
for very much *n the little fellow's ac
count, but it shows that the mother of
this child is trying to win. It shows the
right spirit. A desire to win coupled
with properly concentrated efforts will
win for anyone in any field of endeavor
A litlte later in the morning the mother
of this child came into the office with
several subscriptions for which she re
ceived votes to be cast in her baby's
favor.
It is rumored that some of the candi
dates are holding back subscriptions in
tlie hope that a larger bonus than has
heretofore been offered will be given
later in the contest. If that be true,
the contest management wishes to ad
vise candidates doing this to turn in any
business they may have at once, as there
positively will not be a larger bonus
offer made than has been offered. The
rules and conditions governing the con
cur' as published at the beginning of the
r»re must be adhered to throughout the
entire contest. There can be no changes
or modifications whatsoever.
Triple vote period closes Tuesday
night, June 16th, at 10 o’clock, after
which there will be a further reduction
of 33 1-3 pev cent in. votes issued on
subscriptions, so it will behoove con
testants to get out and get after sub
scriptions if they wolld win.
Master Donald Polk, of Port Royal, S.
C.. and Master Luther J. Andrew’s of Me-
Cormickw, S. C., are two candidates who
make their first appearance in The Her
a d’s picture gallery today. Both of
these youngsters aVe live wires and have
made a good beginning by turning in
several subsections that entitle them to
many thousand votes in the contest.

IEMARKABLE
CASE of Mis. HAM

Vegetable Compound
Saved Her Life
and Sanity.
Shamrock, Mo.—“l feel it my duty
to tell the public the condition of my
W.J
health before using
your medicine. I had
falling, inflamma
tion and congestion,
female weakness,
pains in both sides,
backaches and bear
ing down pains, was
short o f memory,
nervous, impatient,
passed sleepless
nights, and had
neither strength nor
llHpgpi
IpQ j
energy-. There was always a fear and
dread in my mind, I had cold, nervous,
weak spells, hot flashes over my body.
I had a place in my right side that was
so sore that I could hardly bear the
weight of my clothes. I tried medicines
and doctors, but they did me little good,
and I never expected to get out again.
I got Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound and Blood Purifier, and I cer
tainly would have been in grave or in an
asylum if your medicines had not saved
me. But now I can work all day, sleep
well at night, eat anything I want, have
no hot flashes or weak, nervous spells.
All pains, aches, fears and dreads are
gone, my house, children and husband
ere no longer neglected, as I am almost
entirely free of the bad symptoms I had
before taking your remedies, and all is
pleasure and happiness In my home.”—

It is Just Natural
To Admire Babies
O’jr altnistlc nature impels love for the
•cooing infant. And at the same time
. the subject of
motherhood is ever
before us. To know
what to do that will
add to the physical
comfort of expectant
motherhood is a sub
ject that has inter
ested most women of
all times Ono of
the real helpful
things is an external
abdominal application sold in most
drug stores under the name of “Mother's
Friend." We have known so many grand*
mothers, who In their younger days
relied upon this remedy, and who recom
mend it to their own daughters that It
certainly must be what its name indi
cates. They have used it for its direct
influence upon the muscles, cords, liga
ments and tendons as it alms to afford
relief from the strain and pain so often
unnecessarily severe during the period of
expectancy.
A little book mailed by Bradfleld Regu
lator Co., 305 Lamar Bldg., Atlanta. Oa.,
refers to many things that women like to
read about. It refers not only to the
[relief from muscle strain due to their
expansion but also to nausea, morning
plckness, caking of breasts and. many.

The Delmonico Farewell Concert
The farewell concert that will he
Riven tomorrow, Friday, evening at
the Tubman auditorium by Mr. Del
monico, assisted by local musicians,
will be one of the most perfect song
affairs ever presented in Augusta.
Each participant in the program is
an artist, and each selection a gem.
It has long ago been conceded that
Mr. Delmonico’s voice is one of the
most beautiful ever heard in Augus
ta, and a feeling of madness will
come over his audience tomorrow
evening when they realize that it is
being heard for the last time here in
a long, long while. Mr. Delmonico
has ever been most generous with
his beautiful voice, and has without
exception always cheerfully given his
services towards the perfecting of
any concert or musical ever given in
Augusta, very frequently when it has
been at a personal inconvenience to
himself, and his last oppearance to
morrow evening will be an excellent
opportunity for Augustans to show
their appreciation of his kindness and
at the same time enjoy a musical
treat as rarely falls their way.
Mr. Delmonico will be assisted by
Miss Margaret Battle, soprano. Miss
Caroline Browne, contralto, Mr.
Harold Russell, baritone, Mr. Felix
Luck, baritone, Miss Ellen McAlpine
Hickman, piano and Mr. Robert Irvin,
piano, and the following beautiful
program will be rendered.

Tubman banquet brilliant Affair
2he 1914 Tubman banquet, at which
the Juniors entertained the Seniors
last evening at the Tubman Auditor
ium will go down in history as one of
the most beautiful yet given, one per
fect in every detail and graced by the
presence of an agregation of the pret
tiest, the brightest girls.
The banquet table was laid in the
form of a maletese cross at which the
girls were seated.
The speakers were seated at a largo
round table beautifully adorned in the
class colors of black and orange, and
with hundreds of the class flower of
Brown Eyed Susans placed in crystal
vases and bowls.
Radiating from this central table was
a table placed in the shape of a huge
maletese cross effectively adorned in
the same manner, at which the other
girls and guests were seated.
Especialv dainty were the place
cards, which showed a four rung steel
ladder, on the topmost rung of which
was perched a dainty maiden holding
her diploma, the rungs being marked
Sopohomore, Freshman, Junior and
Senior. These cards were designed
by Miss Elizabeth Morris and Miss
Annie Smith did them ail very cleverly
In water colors.
Rarely Is there seen a more beautiful
picture than the one presented by
these beautiful girls in their dainty
gowns with fluttering ribbons, and
their bright happy fares that were an
Inspiration to all that saw them.
The banquet was a very beautiful
affair and there were a number of
clever toasts responded to by the girls.
Before the close of the evening Miss
Maud Dilworth, president of the Sen
ior Glass, thanked the Junior for the
beautiful compliment paid them, voic
ing her thanks in the following appre
ciative words:
It seems impossible now that three
years rnu'd have gone by since we saw
vou. Juniors, for the first time In the old
Tut man. You walked |n that morn ng
gingerly, looking very frightened and
Prim, a most miserable crew of little
girls, while, we the advanced and easy
Sophomores, lolled around and poked fun
at you. or patronized you with an off
hand manner or Ignored you utterly. We
were all surprisingly young Looking back
on It, It seems remarkable to me that
we knew how to talk, much more to
read and write, and some of us even to
do arithmetic. We were small Inslg
nlflcene little girls, and yet we felt Just
as we do now. At that time we saw
the Senlm’s as tall, reserved young
ladles, rather haughty and not a little
terrible. We see now that they must
have been about like us. not particularly
tall, and not at all terrible. If you com
pare your memories of those aloof, god
dess-like he ngs, with your present view
of us, you must exclaim, "My! How the

Tubman Is going down!” We »r* not
aware of how much we have changed <ft
how much we have learned, It seems to
have been a short dream which leaves
us Just the same. Hut time has gone
on three years.
When I entered the old school four
years ago, It seemed to mo that It
would be a life-time before I graduated.
If I could even endure so long; and now
I stand here at the end and say: “Can
it he all over so soon?”
All that I can wish for you who will
he SenhS-s next year, Is that at the end
you may look baek with as much regret
and pleasure on the happy days spent here
as we now feel; and that you may have
as much to lie grateful for to those who
have been our guides and helpers and
to whom we owe so much more than we
can ever repay. (It Is they, who remain
and It Is they who know that the Tub
man Is not going down; and I feel that
as long as they remain. It will not go
down.)
And so In conclusion let me thank you
for myself and in behalf of my class
mates for this banquet.
(It is very hard for me to respond In
the proper spirit to a speech of welcome
when I feel way down In my heart a
little lonely spot, where all galty ana
merry-making cannot reach and where
a little lonely voice keeps rei eating to
me that it means—Farewell.)
In all the worlds
Of girls and girls under the sun
There are none to compare with our
Juniors fair
Wherever his course doth run.
So with l fted glass this Senior class
Drinks to them one and all with wishes
tile best
From their school-girl guests
In this their banquet hall.
Juniors tonight, hut Seniors tomorrow,
We bequeath to you our tiest und our
all
And thHnks from our heart
For this love on your part,
We hid you Godspeed and Farewell.
