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.

of the campaign. After Sunday sub
scriptions count for many less votes

time between now and one week from

originally announced and the extrs

Point Schedule Drop«
Saturday at 9 o'clock marks a big
decrease in the point schedule turned

day you receive many more points
toward this extraordinary prize on
each subscription than you will re

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

same subscriptions count the maxi
