Work on the Get Acquainted Anniversary Edition, soon to be published by The Spirit has progressed so rap- Idly, and with such gratifying results, that it is safe to make the prediction now that ajnore comprehensive pictorial record of Men prominent in affairs in this section of the State has never been published. Nearly 400 representative citizens of this county have ordered their photogra# lis published in the edition, and photographers In the various sections of the county are busy taking pictures. The Spirit urges those who have not yet had their photos made to do so at once, tis it is important that the engravings for all illustrations be in hand within the next few days, for there is no small amount of work involved in publishing- an illustrated edition of this character. Practically every person interviewed has looked on the photograph proposition in the true spirit—that is that the occasion is of such a nature that one may not hesitate about having his picture in because of any feeling of modesty. In fact, the response baa been so great, that the person not appearing in the edition will be more conspicuous than the one in.
