in the past but what is accomplish
ed from now on is. -what, counts.
This Baby Derby is just like a race
of any kind. Any race is won on
the home stretch, and the candi
date who slows up at this impor
tant time is going to be outdist
anced leaving your baby trailing
in the dust "an also ran." The
way is wide open for a hustler to
"DIG RIGHT IN" and win $15 or
$10 special cash prize, honor and
glory, $200 and loving cup. Coupons
and subscriptions can be gotten
by those who will go after them.
It will pay you to. put forth more
determination this week not next
week. When, the pessimistic bug
bites you feed it just a little more
energy for- this is a sure cure and
you will experience a pleasant feel
ing. Don't let your baby down now.
Remember, the special cash prize
offer closes Saturday night. Make
every hour count between now and
then!
Many of the babies have not yet
a subscription reported for them.
Just think of it! The parents of
these babies have them entered
to win of course. Yet they have
entirely overlooked the opportunity
for " mile-getting offered in sub
scriptions. Surely any baby in the
race, with parents, uncles, aunts,
grandparents, friends and acquain
tances has at least a few of these
people who would renew or be
come subscribers to The pranklin
Press simply for the asking.
We do not know if some of the
folks are a bit reluctant to ad
vance their babies "through the
subscription angle. They shouldn't
feel that way, for in this work you
are advancing the future of the
county weekly newspaper the
backbone of the nation.
We would like to see each baby
represented this week with some
subscriptions. We cannot believe
that any baby in the race oo:uld
be so Jacking in backers that not
a solitary person would help it
with a subscription. Surely you
parents are going to make an ef
fort these last few days of this
week. There are hundreds of pros
pects for new and renewal sub
scribers. At least make an effort
to get in a $15 "club" by Satur
day night.
You Mothers and Dads must ret
member that baby cannot win the
race without your active interest.
You are its campaign managers,
and unless you are willing to seek
the support of a number of people
in its behalf, your baby ' cannot
hope to emerge the winner. Why
not .get busy right now and start
the job of putting your baby in
the lead? '
Jones county has joined with
Onslow in an effort to get 100
