Mrs. Anthony of Farmington, has been announced as the
winnger of the $350 piano. We reprint from two Nebraska
papers the following: The Daily Nebraska News Piano
contest for the most popular woman in Iowa closed
yesterday afternoon at 1 o'clock. Miss Mary E. Anthony of
Farmington being the winner, with 74,000 votes to her
credit. Miss Anthony called at the Daily News business
office during the day and was given an order for a $350
Kimball upright, on a local dealer. For the second time
Miss Mellie Anthony has proven her ability as a newspaper
solicitor. While a resident of Springfield last year she
won a fine piano by getting the most votes in a contest
given by the Omaha Daily News and in a contest which
closed yesterday she won another from Iowa given by the
same paper. She was 50,000 votes ahead of her nearest

Springfield friends are pleased with the result and hope
that she will continue to be successful."
