W e hear so much about jealousy, its moral and spiritual effect, and are just b<*irinninjt to discover somethin* o f it, cause. W e cannot have an ef- feet without a cause, that is certain, so I am going to take a little space fo r the cause o f jealousy. In the first place, fo r one to be jealous, in any possible way, shows one to have an "in fe rio rity complex.” Everyone longs to be admired, to be loved. to stand out above the average, hut very, very few take the trouble to improve themselves to that point whore each one can shine in his own particular way Eor instance, i f each one put his heart and soul into his work, he would have no need to bo jealous o f another's success. I f one was as clean and neat about his per- son and surroundings, as he could be. he wouldn't need to be jealous o f his neighbor's attractive home. I f each one was as loving, unselfish and as gracious as he could be. he wouldn’t be jealous o f another's charm. So, it is easily seen that jealousy springs from a lack o f intelligence, or a lack o f balance, or unity between the emo­ tions generated in the heart, and the intellect generated in the brain. This answers two letters, one who hasa jealous husband, and one who has a jealous wife. — N A N C Y LEE.

There w ill be no e x ­ ception to this rule. ( andidates will be allowed to collect back subscriptions and re ­ newals as well as entirely new subscriptions and votes will be issued on both. 6— Votes are free. It costs the subscriber nothing extra to vote fo r his or her favorite. Subscribers should ask for votes when paying their subscriptions. 7 Cotes cannot be purchased. Every cent accepted through the camjiaign depart - ment must represent subscriptions. 8— Votes are not transferable. Candidates cannot withdraw- in fa v o r o f another candidate. Should a candidate withdraw- from the race, his or her votes will be can­ celled. (W ith the consent o f the cam paign manager, however, a candidate may w ith ­ draw from the race and transfer his or her votes to an entirely new candidate or new entry.; N either will it be permissible for 'andidates to g ive or transfer subscriptions to another candidate. Votes on such transferred subscriptions will be subject to dis­ qualification at the discretion o f the management. 9— A n y effo rt or collusion on the part o f any candidate or candidates to discourage competition by the spreading o f false rumors or exaggerated stories, or anything done by any candidate or combination o f candidates to the detrim ent o f this newspaper will not be tolerated.

During the en­ tire last week o f the camiiaign, the box locked and sealed will repost in a con­ venient place, where candidates and their friends will deposit their final collections and reserve votes. And not until the race has been declared dosed will the seals he broken, the box unlocked and the judges begin the final count. In this way, no one— not even the campaign r.ianager—can possibly know the voting strength o f the re­ spective candidates, which precludes any possibility o f favoritism and insures fairness to the minutest degree. 19— The management reserves the right to amend or add to the rules o f this cam ­ paign, if necessary, for the protection o f the interests o f both candidates and this aper. The right is also reserved to increase and add to the list o f prizes. 20— The Advocate guarantees fair and impartial it-eafrncnt to all candidates; should any question arise, the decision o f the management will be absolute and final. 21— T w o hundred thousand extra votes will be awarded eaeh candidate with every three one-year subscription, or the equivalent, turned in during their first week in the ram paign; 150,000 extra votes will be awarded eaeh candidate with every three one- year subscription, or the equivalent, turned in during their second week in the cam- paign. These are in addition and above all regular votes but this arrangem ent will be in effect only during the first two periods o f the rampaign. 22— A ll extra votes w ill be issued and credited to the accounts o f the various can­ didates at the convenience o f the rampaign manager. 23— Campaign opens today— closes June 25, 1931.
