testants. Now the Held is scarcely
touched and subscriptions are very
lasy to get. A little extra effort on
the part of a contestant these next
few days will not only mean thous
ands of votes by the regular vote
scale but also thousands of votes on
this ex trs offer. No matter how much
you may work later, no matter how
many friends you may have helping
you, you will find that there is no
time like this offer to get the votes,
and that later even though you do
more work, your vote total will not
rise nearly so fast.
So if you are in this race and are
in it to get everything that yon pos
sibly can, plit forth an extra effort
this week. Write, phone and cail
on all of the people that you think
you can get a subscription from.
