There are now less than five weeks left for the contest ants to finish their work In, as tho contest closes on Saturday evening, September 29, at 9 o'clock. There will unquestionably be some very aggres lve "hustling" done toward the close of this competition, but the leaders In the contest should not make the pos sibly fatal mistake of leaving their best work until the closing hours, as others may do the same thing, and by bringing in enough returns of new subscribers succeed In vv Inning by a very narrow margin. These are the days to do the work get a sufficient lead to Insure against nervousness as to the final result Harry Reese brought In enough points yesterday to pass Miss Grace Slmrell, of Carbondale, and tie with Miss Fannie n. Williams, of Peckville, for seventh place. He is now only a few points behind Arthur Kemmerer, of Factor ville, and the distance Is the same between Kemmerer and nugene Uoland for fifth place. Illchard Rob erts made a slight gain on John P. Smith In an effort to get away from thirteenth place. Otherwise the posi tions remain unchanged. There will be plenty of time during the remaining four weeeks and a frac tion for new talent to take hold and see what capabilities they possess for trying to advance their own Interests.
