HOLÖS INSTITUTE IN ESTACADA $100 in Gold-Point Schedule Ends This Saturday Night Saturday Big Day for Live Candidates in Clackamas County News Free Gift Distribution -Leaders Run C l o s e - S i 0 0 in Gold Means $ 5 0 a Week Extra Last Tuesday candidates started on the new campaign in which an extra prize of $100 in gold will be given to the candidate who secures the greatest number o f points in sub scriptions turned in between last Tuesday and Saturday night, March 30. Every candidate, regardless of his or her present standing, started on an equal basis on this special prize. The efforts o f candidates for the next ten days really have a double prize value. Every subscription turned in during the next ten days not only counts the regular number o f votes toward the original prizes o f big motor cars, etc., but they alsit count points toward the extra prize of $100 in gold; it means $50 a week to you. Many more points are given for subscriptions on this special prize if turned in Saturday night of this week than if turned in after thal time. Your efforts between now and Saturday night are worth a great teal more to you in both points and votes, than they will be after Satur day night. Now is the time to exert every possible effort and secure ev ery available subscription. 10-Year Subscriptions Count scriptions in favor o f any candidate would make a new leader in the race Big Votes End Soon One week from- Saturday night at 9 o ’clock sees the close o f the last big vote schedule o f the race— this ends the biggest remaining vote offer of the campaign. After Sunday sub scriptions count for many less votes and points. For this very reason the time between now and one week from Saturday night is by far the mosi important o f the home stretch. Who ever goes out in front these next few days will have the best chance of all toward landing the big motor cars originally announced and the extrs prize o f $100 in gold. Point Schedule Drop« Saturday at 9 o'clock marks a big decrease in the point schedule turned in on the new special prize o f $100 in gold. Up until 9 o ’clock Satur day you receive many more points toward this extraordinary prize on each subscription than you will re ceive the following week. This week and next your best efforts really have a double prize value. Every subscription you turn in this week counts the regular number of votes toward the original grand cap ital prizes and at the same time the same subscriptions count the maxi mum number o f points toward the additional $100 prize.
