TWO WORKERS WILL DRIVE NEW CARS SATURDAY NIGHT 1937 Pontiac And Chevrolet Ready To Roll The Herald’s largest and most successful circulation campaign will close this Saturday night at 8 o’clock. The sealed balot box sys tem will be used as announced at the beginning of the campaign. The contestants and their friends will deposit all subscriptions secured this week in the Ballot Box which is located in the Herald office. By using this method of closing the campaign, no one, not even the manager, will know the voting strength of the workers until the judges break the seals, open the box and begin the check and count ta 8 o’clock Saturday night. This has been a fairly fought campaign. It has been conducted along absolutely impartial lines. The best campaigners are going to win. Those who apply themselves during every minute there is left are the ones whose chanecs are the best. The battle of votes dur ing the past few days has been waged at the fastest pace of the entire campaign with the leaders straining every nerve in their ef forts for supremacy. The stage is set. Everything is in readiness for the overwhelming rush of subscriptions that will come. The ballot box is ready, the judges selected, and the contest ants have checked their campaign records with the records of the campaign department. The judges will check the subscriptions in the ballot box, issue votes on them, and add each contestant’s votes from their reports in the ballot box to their previous totals, and in this way will determine the winners in the contest. An Opportunity To Help NOW is the time, if ever, to help your favorite in this race for a big new 1937 Pontiac or 1937 Chevro let. Your subscription NOW for one, two or more years may be the deciding factor in the race. Here is an opportunity to help the con testant you are backing to win, without costing you one cent more for your newspaper. Do not wait to be asked to sub scribe this last week, for in his or her haste to cover as much ground as possible during the closing hours of the campaign, the one you would K like to help may not be able to reach you. Too, the offer of volun tary support would be extra pleas ing and heartening to your favor ite.

This figure has not yet been reached this year and it will be re called that there was not sufficient last year to carry on thru the en tire year.

Bynum, president of Associated Charities. It was pointed out that the pres ent fund will give only $50 per month for special work in 1937, which is not much per family when there are several destitute families not sufficiently reached by any other agency.
