A fter that a material decline in the voting schedule will become effective. This is fair warning to all contestants and to their friends who desire to help them when help counts the most. It may easily mean the difference between success and failure,— and demands real activity on the part of all concerned. TH IS W E E K ’S R E SU LTS COUNT FA ST! Long term subscriptions count the most. A few such subscriptions now from unexpected sources may be the deciding factors in the race. You— Contestant or Subscriber— will only lose by holding back.
