Perry Get To Funeral Saturday gether Here Sunday Harold Norris, of Fairview, won the $5.00 first prize in the Sentinel’s proverb cartoon contest which closed at 8 p. m. Wednesday evening. His was the only one correct in every de tail. Mrs. Jos. Collier, who lives be yond Fat Elk on the highway won the second prize of S3. Her only error was in using the preposition “to" in stead of the adverb “too,” in one of her replies. Winner of the $2 third prize was Mrs. Ealie Oddy, who lives on North Willard street here. Seven of all those who submitted replies had them all right but one. Following are the correct answers: 1. The early bird catches the worm. 2. A stitch in time saves nine. 3. You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. 4. The pen is mightier than the sword. 5. All is not gold that glitters. 8. Too many cooks spoil the broth. If the three winners in the contest will call at the Sentinel office they will receive their respective prizes.
