Miss Dorothy Dill, Kansas City, Kas.
Soprano, Wins 4-State Contest
MISS DOROTHY DILL, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Dill, 21 North Seventh street, Kansas City, Kas., was awarded first prize yesterday in the vocal soprano division of a state contest at Tulsa, according to a telegram received by her parents. She is 19 years old. Her reward is a free trip to the national meet in Philadelphia November 1 to 4.
There were entries from Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Arkansas. Each had won first place honors in state contests conducted October 7 and 8.
The contests are being conducted under the auspices of the National Federation of Music Clubs, which will pay the expenses of sending each district winner to the sesquicentennial city.
Miss Dill was graduated from the Kansas City, Kas., high school last spring. Shortly before her graduation she won highest musical honors at the state high school music contest at Emporia. Miss Dill is a graduate of the Kansas City Comptometer School.—Marie R. Bliss.

to multiply 487 x 662⁄3 with only nine strokes or how to add mixed fractions without using decimals—or how to divide accurately by 87 3/16 by holding only four divisor keys; and thousands of other operations that it's time and labor saving for the operator to know. If there is anything in connection with Comptometer operation that you want to know, we will do our best to help you if you will just let us know what it is. A young lady wrote in the other day—she wanted to know how she could multiply 486 x 1.331⁄3 x 68.45 and divide all that by 144 without cancelling on an 8-column Comptometer. It's easy enough with just a little suggestion.
