HOW TO PROCEED.
Go around first in the neighborhood
and see all your friends and acquaint-
ances. Capture them as subscribers be-
tore somebody else does, for it is very
likely they are friends and neighbors of
some unknown rival of yours, who will
read this article just about the same
time you do and who will be quick to
act on the suggestions made.
Next write 10 everybody you know
far and near-cousins, aunts, uncles, etc.
Tell them if they subscribe to the PRESS
through you that they will help you win
q bicycle. Perhaps the refusal Of only
one would cause you to be defeated.
TELL THEM THAT. Also tell them they
will receive for only so cents the best
family weekly paper published in Allan
tic county, New Jersey. Ask them to
try and get some of their friends to SUBJ
scribe-to do SO for your sake.
sTART AT ONCE.
The main point is to start quickl De-
lays are always dangerous. The person
who hesitates is lost Ill this contest.
Now then, go to work! Consider your
self a specially appointed agent, and In
"a hours you ought to have.five or Ten
names as a starter. Your father,
mother, big brother or your sisters
beau, the family physician and the clergy
man, to say nothing OF the grocer, the
dry goods man and the postmaster,
ought all to yield to your arguments If
you are sufficiently persistent. Don't
let the thought OF defeat enteryour head.
Don't be easily put off. Some peoplesay
no at first just to see how you can talk
especially will this be the case when pretty
girls are doing the talking.
Girls, man likes to be begged, to be
appealed to, earnestly. You may not
like to do such things but remember the
bicycle! Ii the winner is girl, she gets
500 ladies' wheel.
We wish all who read this paper
could be successful in the contest, but
unfortunately bicycles come high and
we can only give one. That will go to
the person who proves most energetic
and capable, and the winner, it is sale to
predict, will be among the foremost in
life's race.
