Contest Just Starting-Aspirants Should Begin
fork Now.
There are great things in store for friends of THE COURIER in this and adjoining counties during the next
twelve weeks. Every ' young lady wants a piano, or, if they do not care for that, they surely want to go to
Jamestown. THE COURIER will send you.
15he Courier Will Distribute $4,000 in Awards
August 1, 1907.
THE PRIZES.
The first prize, to the young lady receiving the
highest number of votes during the contest, is a hand-i
some No. 16 Kimball Piano, valued at $400.00. j
The second prize is a certificate, valued at $150.00
on the purchase price ol a new Kimball Piano.
THE COURIER has also arranged for two scholarships
in King's Business College at Raleigh, and two other schol- j
arships in two of the best schools of the State, to be award-!
ed to the four next highest. These scholarships will be j
worth hundreds of dollars to the winner who takes the course
Erescribed for them, and should be an inspiration to work j
arder for the Grand Prize. These scholarships will he
given to the young ladie3 receiving the third, fourth, fifth j
and sixth highest number of votes during the contest.
To each of the four next highest we will give PIANO I
CERTIFICATES valued at 1100 each in payment for a piano j
bought at one of the stores of dealers in Kimball pianos. To
the next two NEW HOME SEWING MACHINES, valued at
$35-00 each. To the two next highest Ladies' Gold Hunting
Case Watches, warranted for 20 years and valued at 125.00 1
each. To the next four we will give Piano Certificates, val
ued at $75.00 each and to the next 45 Piano Certificates, val-)
ed at $50.00 each at any of the Dealers' Stores. This is the i
greatest contest ever put on by a weekly newspaper in the
South, and the awards are just as presented. We expect, :
between this and August 4th, to add several thousand names I
to our subscription list or we could not arrange this con- j
test upon such a mammouth plan.
TO JAMESTOWN
Ir. order to equaliza cornpstiucm in the field THE
COURIER has divided the districts proportionately
so that each may be represented.
The districts arid the number from each district
are given below.
Our plan is to take the young ladies receiving the larg
est vote in the districts arranged as given below as guests
of THE COURIER.
t STKICT NO. 1. Asheboro and all of the territory
m K"ph Purity west of the old plank road: i Trips.
DISTRICT NO. 2. All of Randolph fcur.ty ecst of the
old plank road: 4 Trips.
, DISTRICT NO. 3. Moore and Montgomery counties:
1 Trip.
DISTRICT NO. 4. -Davidson and Guilford counties:
: 1 Trip. ,
Persons winning these trips are not eligible for any of
? ther prizes, and the young ladies winning the Piano,
$lo0 Piano certificate, or the scholarships are not eligible for
one of the Jamestown trips.
! The management has decided to increase the number of
; ministers to join the Jamestown party to six. We believe
this i to be moie fair on account of the number of ministers
m ih?JLrXtory- The districts are divided as follows:
DISTRICT NO. 1. -Randolph county, three.
O- 2 Montgomery and Moore counties, one.
NO. 3 Davidson county, one.
No- 4. Anywhere except the territory embraced in the
foregoing territory, one.
There is a great deal to be gained in a contest of this kind, both in pleasure and in experience, and those who
enter now will stand a fine chance to win because of the early start. Get your friends interested in the contest,
solicit theiir aid, and you will be surprised to see how rapidly the votes roll up. The first announcement of the
names of the candidates and the number of votes each has appears in another column.
