Enthusiasm gives vitality andj vigor to all the positive qualities. It ! overcomes difficulties, wins over the hostile and the indifferent, carries! you through discouragement and! lightens everv task. "Great habit, j enthusiasm." We rejoice to noiei the enthusiasm some of the contes-1 tants have had throughout the race, but we fear some are becoming over-confident. The only way to win is to keep everlastingly after i subscriptions. Don't depend on a rush on the home stretch to pull i you into nrst position, it is me constant dripping that wears away stone, and likewise constantly, ever lastingly keeping after subscrip tions will wear away the distance between your present standing and the grand prize. While it is true that the duration of the contest has been shortened by the week just passed, there is yet ample time for some good honest worker to come in and completely revise the standing of the contestants now in the lead. Let me call your attention to a thing not many of you are doing, viz: "Concentration." Concentra tion of thought upon the prize you want to win.- Concentration of mind upon the best method in which to approach the new subscribers. Con centration of forces. Get your j friends together and by your earnest enthusiasm, secure their support; arid condensed efforts in your be- j half.

' Bet ter be safe than sorry." ANOTHER PRIZE WON For the last ten days every one connected with The Review's popularity contest have put forth every effort to win the special mil linery prize given by Miss Venetia Smith, the popular milliner. Never was a more beautiful home stretch witnessed. So keen was the rivalry for the last few hours that no very great difference exists between the winner and those who foil jwed in close persuit. Miss Lillie Rochelle carried off the prize. Next came Miss Etta White of Arch dale, a very popular contestant, and deserves special mention as she held a very close second and did it all in less than a week. Had she started after the hat with the others, she would have carried off the prize easily. After the dusi had cleared away, we found Miss Mary Denson was right on hand and had there been a second prize, it would have been very hard to, decide whether she or Miss White would have been the one to take it. Miss Juanita Hammer holds fourth place. She did some very good work, but wait ed too late to get in earnest about it. When she did start she made a fine last quarter. MisaIIattie Gray was next in order and made a very good showing. Hurry up. Miss Gray, You have a good chance. We know your qualities and in the next race we expect to see you in first place. Are we expecting too much ? Surely not. And thus The Review and its happy throng of contestants rush out and take great victories. Be-J fore the contest closes The Review I will cover the state like the dews. A WORD OF THANKS. I wish by this means to thank all the young ladies who worked so earnestly for the contest during the past ten days. You have made wonderful progress and each of you have placed the Handsome Piano nearer your home. To Miss Lillie Rochelle goes the congratulations of the manager, and I am quite sure every one of our contestants. Wish ing you all continued success and assuring you that I stand ever ready to assist any of you, I am, Sincerely your friend, R. V. BIDEZ, Contest Manager.

WISE SAYINGS. A man who has had delirium tremens and walloed in the gutters is not a fit subject to preach moral ity and sobriety too strongly. The election returns will show which way the wind blows. Crippen will perhapci i us adieu on election day too bad. SENATOR OVERMAN'S SPEECH A great speech that of Senator Overman at the warehouse Wednes day night. A large crowd and an abundance of enthusiasm, notwith standing the rainy weather. Sena tor Overman is all to the good and what he did for Mary Ann Butler and his crowd was a plenty. Peo ple listen to and believe in such a man as Mr. Overman. GOOD WORK Mayor Tate, chairman of the Traffic and Transportation Com mittee of the Manufacturers Club, has succeeded in restoring the High Point-Richmond package car. Some weeks ago a change was made and High Point merchandise from Rich mond went to the transfer at Spen cer ana men dhck nere again, ne cessitating a long and unnecessary delay, and of course, working a hardship on the people. The Re view the past three weeks has had shipments delayed in this way and has caused no little annoyance. Di rect shipments from Richmond reach here in a day or so whereas it takes, a whole week to be trans ferred from Spencer and then sent back, here again. Chairman Tate struck a good lick in this direction. The editor of The Review had al ready written the Chamber of Com merce of Richmond given them the information and calling on that or ganization to right the wrong. Remember Craddock; its easy.
