1 1 ' THE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM, OREGON. THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 36, 1928 ' ' ' :- ". 1 milliter In the recent phase of the EVERYBODY WINS IT BREf iT You Stand a Chance To ' Draw Down Big Surn In Very Short Time know tfhtt you hare become a can didate in the (1ft election. Tonll get them everywhere toy Just using a few moments of your spare time. Six beautiful cars, radios; wash ing machine and cash prises is cer tainly substantial pay for odd mo ments of your spare time in gath ering yotes, and if you do not. win one of the prizes there is a 20 per cent commission. shSSkt Salem and this entire section today la agog oyer The Statesman's great "Ererybody Wins" free gift distribution. Everybody is talk ing. And but few are doing. It is not talk that The Statesman wants. It Is candidates. And can didates are slow getting in. It is really puzzling to the manage ment. Why are so few contest ants taking advantage, of tbfe great giving campaign? Six thousand dollars in automobiles, washing machines, radios, dia mond rings and cash prizes are of fered. Winners will get more for " their efforts in the next few weeks than the average family man makes in a month. Tee, consider ably more. More active candidates are wanted candidates who are real candidates, who will get in and "carry on" candidates who are big enough that every flurry will not scare them. Fighters are wanted. What difference does it make to you, a candidate, what John Jones is doing? You don't win that way. It is what you do your self that wins for you. Winning is pceitive, not negative. It is the subscriptions that you turn in that will pile up your vote total. The Winning Spirit It takes headwork as well as footwork. It takes foresight as well as hindsight. It takes a "do" spirit. If you are in. go get 'em. If you have been considering going after the big prizes, go after them. Everybody hates a coward. And. how about a quitter? Remember that votes are what win. Promises won't get you there. Noise won't win for you. Just votes. One year's subscription in this big vote period gives you 32,000 votes. A 5-year subscription will give yon 288, 0D0 votes this first. period. suDscriptions win win lor you. Only in this first period can you get the biggest votes. You win if you stick. You can't lose. "Everybody Wins" is the slogan. There is no such word as "can't." You "can" but you must will it so. That's the how of this contest. There never was and never will be such an opportunity onered you. ramie, ueauze wnat this means to you. In Your Spare Time Without spending one cent you can win as high as $2043.00 in the next few weeks. You can do it in your spare time. You cannot lose. Have you ever been offered a better business proposition? Have you ever cashed your spare time for more real money? Each and every prize will be given away, absolutely free to the persons who make the effort to get them, if your name Is sent in immediately and included in the list of 'candidates you can win a prize of your choice. But you must act now. The contest Is an extremely short one and will be "all out and over" In a few short weeks. To enter your name and share in this big distribution of awards. simply fill out the nomination blank appearing in this paper and send or bring it to the election headquarters' at once. Your friends will save all their coupons for you that appear in The Statesman every day, and they will also be glad to pay up their subscription or subscribe for you. Votes pile up mighty fast when you once let your friends HI DISCUSSED CLARION PROMOTION TALKED AT SHS ASSEMBLY The regular assembly of the high school, held the first period yesterday morning, was given over to members of the staff of the school annual, '" the Clarion, to create interest among the students and to inform them of some of the problems the annual is facing this year because of the deficit incurred by the publication last year. , Chief among the speakers were Isabel Childs. editor, and Lee Coe business manager. This Is the first time that a real presentation of the annual work has been laid before the student body. The editor and manager have worked hard in arriving at plans which will save money and at the same time produce a magazine worthy the effort and due to the difficulty of arriving at a sound financial basis, work is Just beginning to get into full swing. All pictures nave not yet been taken, and Miss Childs asked that students attend o this immediately. This year a new plan in mer chants' patronage has been adopt ed whereby all the advertisers will make a donation, their names only appearing on one page of the pub lication. This will aid materially Ui lowering the cost, at the same time leaving the usual number of pages devoted to the school ac tivities. Another Innovation is a reduc tion of the price from the $2.50 of last year to $1. MARY ASTOR TO WED HOLLYWOOD.

Junior In High School Wins Prize for Poster Strange Kidnaping Tale Told by L. A. Minister MOSCOW. Jan. 2&. (AP). Professor Leonid Kulik in the evening newspaper Vetschernaya Moskva, tells of the extraordinary circumstances of the fall ot a giant meteorite in 1908. Professor Ku lik, who is head of the meteorite department of the Academy of Sciences, recently returned from the Yeniseisk district, Siberia, where he succeeded In locating the site of the meteorite's descent. (Associated Press dispatches last September from Washington told of the finding of the resting place of this meteorite, with brief details.) Professor Kulik says that the circumstances he describes are ful ly confirmed by hundreds of eye witnesses. "Early In the morning of July 30, 1908." he relates, "the popu lation Inhabitating the territory between the Yenissei and Lena rivers witnessed a dazzling fiery body hurtling through the air, fol lowed by a thundering detonation It was heard 1500 kilometers (about 1,000 miles) to the south It caused a great air commotion. felled men and horses and dis turbed the waters of lakes and rivers 700 kilometers distant. Na tives walking 30 or 40 kilometers from the spot were lifted in the air. together with tents and cattle. "The shock was so great that seismographs recorded earth tre mors in Irkutsk, 1400 kilometers to the south. "During its lightning flight the meteorite spread tremendous heat which was felt hundreds of kilo meters away, where watchers had the impression that their clothes had caught fire. "An immense forest area was Instantly set afire, in which thou sands of reindeer perished and unnumbered natives disappeared." Only lack of funds and technical Lucille Downing, Junior In the Salem high school, has been awarded first place In a poster contest Jor the cover design of the February issue of the Health Ed ucation Bulletin, a monthly publi cation sponsored by the Marlon county child health demonstration.

"My story sounds too fishy for any one to believe, In spite of its re-i ality," he said. According to the minister, he was approached, while taking a stroll after! his church services, by a man who alighted from an automobile ! and told, him that some one j was in trouble and needed him. The minister entered the car which contained four or five persons and was driven to a large. comfortably furnished house the location of which the pastor can not recall. Six men knd three women were in the house. The minister said: "They appeared to be respect able people; and they did not ap pear to me to have been drink ing." He then saw a young girl, whom he described as beautiful and about 124 years old, gagged and lashed to a chair. He was then ordered to per form a marriage ceremony be tween this girl and one of the men. He refused and was strung up by the thumbs, the cords be ing drawn over "hooks In an arch way between the rooms." He was let down and again re fused to perform the ceremony,! and was again strung up. He be-; lieves he fainted from the pain and was unconscious, until he found himself sitting on the 'curb some blocks away from his board ing place with a note in his hand reading: "You are a man all right, but keep your eyes open."
