Miss Annie Fox, teacher, and Miss Jane Henry, p'-pil, have been making a strong fight in the 1'imcs contest for a trip to the Pan-American Exposition. In a long list of contestants they have held their places as 7th and 8th in the list, but as they would have to get more than twice as many votes as they have now, to put them among the first four, they have decided to relin quish the fight, as it would be al most impossible to gain the neces sary number to put them among the successful ones. Miss Kshinke, of Berwick, stands 4th, and if the votes that have been going to Miss Fox would be given for her, she no doubt could hold the place. Let every reader of the Times turn in and help Miss Kshitike, and make her one of the four teachers of the state who are to go to tha Exposition as the guests of the Times.
